Trailer Wiring Harness Installation - 2009 Ford Escape Video

I spoke with my contact at Curt and he told me that the Curt Trailer Hitch, #C13651, does sit lower to the ground than the Curt Hitch, #13650. Both trailer hitches will fit the 2005 to 2011 Ford Escape without a factory hitch, but the #C13651 will…

The difference between the Curt #13650 and #C13651 hitches are pretty simple. The #C13651 hitch is designed to fit your 2008 Mariner if you already have an OEM trailer hitch installed. It will also work for your vehicle whether it has a hitch…

The difference between the Class II and Class III hitches has to do with their Gross Trailer Weight (GTW), their Tongue Weight (TW), and their Hitch Receiver Size. Class II trailer hitch receivers have a 1-1/4 inch receiver and can be rated up to…

There are 2 ways you can check to see if your 2011 Ford Escape has the towing package. First, the definitive way to know most everything about your vehicle is to have the dealer run the VIN number. They will then be able to tell you what equipment…

Because trailer wiring harness #118551 requires a direct connection to the vehicle battery, the power wire will be energized all the time because it is connected to the battery. However, with nothing drawing power on the 4-Way end that power has no…

Yes, the Draw Tite hitch part #75751 that fits your 2008 Ford Escape Hybrid does allow you to use a full size spare.

For your 2011 Ford Escape Hybrid, I recommend the Draw-Tite Class III Trailer Hitch #75751, because it has a 2 inch receiver opening and a 525lb tongue weight capacity. I have linked the above recommended hitch and an installation video to this page…

It sounds like you need 4-pole trailer wiring for your 2006 Ford Escape that does not have a factory tow package. We do offer a harness #118426 that will install at your two tail light assemblies and through a single wire connecting to your battery…
