Optronics Standard Trailer Light Kit Installation Video

For your 2023 Toyota Highlander you would need to go with a universal style of tow mirror like the K-Source part #KS3990 which we have test fit on similar Highlanders and found the fit and worked great (see install video link). There are no custom…

I will start by sating that the wheels/tires on the trailer you are looking at do look kind of undersized. So you definitely can stay with a 13" set up like the Kenda Karrier ST185/80R13 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range D #AM10208 and Dexstar…

Trailer wheel bearings are specific to the spindle that is installed on the axle that is on your trailer. You will need to safely support the trailer, remove the wheel and tire, remove the grease cap, remove the cotter pin and washer that secures the…

I would recommend to use the treated torx screws for ACQ (Alkaline Copper Quaternary) treated wood for better corrosion and rust resistance. The treated torx screws like the Redline 2-1/2 Inch Long Torx Trailer Screw for ACQ Treated Wood, part…

For a 9/16 inch shackle bolt such as #TRFA73Z916DLNZ you will want 65 to 95 foot pounds of torque. Provided that you are within that range you won't over-torque the nuts. A little bit of play is expected but large gaps could be taken up using…

It's not common for the spindle number to be printed anywhere on the axle. That said, if you're looking for new bearings/races and seals all you need to do is note the capacity or measure. The easiest method would be to crawl under the…

The correct trailer idler hub for your boat trailer is the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 3,500-lb Axles part #AKIHUB-545-35-K or part #AKIHUB-545-35-EZ-K if you have zerk fittings on the spindle. These are both pre-greased so there is no mess to be…

Even though I cannot comment specifically on the grease you used because I am not familiar with it, I can tell you the best grease for trailer bearings is a a grease with a rating of GC-LB, which just means it is made to withstand very high…

Thank you for reaching out! The best thing for your situation is to go with the 3,500 lb Dexter Axle #T3584F-8974 you are looking at. While you can upgrade your axles to the 5,200 lb #e55GR, you won't really see a benefit from it unless you also…

We've not heard anything about that connector for trailer wiring but that doesn't mean it's not there or that Curt isn't coming up with something for it. I would be inclined to believe that if that was there they would have gone with…

From what you're describing it sounds like the Optronics Trailer License Plate Mount Bracket #LP10SB or the Cruiser License Plate Mounting Plate #CR79150 would be your best option since they have multiple mounting locations for the license plate.…

Congrats on the new SUV. To add a hitch to your 2023 Kia Telluride, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch item #C13420. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Kia with included hardware. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a…
