Hopkins Endurance 7-Way Trailer Wiring Review Video

Yes, you can use 10 gauge wire like the part #10-1-1 (sold by the foot) to wire up the 7-way part #HM48480 or #HM48500. Typically people use 10 gauge wire for the 12 volt accessory, brake output, and ground circuit and then use 12 for the remaining…

I went out to the warehouse and pulled Hopkins 7-Way #HM47210 from the warehouse to measure it for you. From side to side the mounting holes are 2-1/4 inches apart on center. And from top to bottom they are 1-1/2 inches apart on center. I have…

I do have an option for you but there aren't any direct wiring adapters to go from a 4-round to a 7-blade. Therefore, you'll need to remove the 4-round and install a 7-blade which is really your best option since this is far more common for…

Appreciate the photo of your 7-round connector and I have added a diagram showing the pin differences from a 7-way round like yours to a 7-blade, which is what the pins will be for the Hopkins Trailer Connector Adapter - 7-Pole Round Pin to 7-Pole RV…

The #RM-732 is the correct adapter to use to go from a separate taillight system like what you have on your motorhome to a combined system like what is on your tow dolly. For wiring your motorhome with a 7-way you would basically want to follow the…

I looked up the factory hitch and wiring kit for your 2019 Jeep Cherokee and the style of connector is the #HM11141144 which you could install on your vehicle but you'd want to use the 4-way kit part #C56406 as an easy way to get the trailer…

Yes, what you described is very common and would work well. The part #HM47210 that you referenced can have it's 12 volt power circuit wire ran to a trailer battery that is powering an electric tongue jack. People do this all the time and it works…

There is a pin that keeps the hitch ball(s) in place on the platform. If you remove the platform of your Rapid Hitch adjustable ball mount then you can see and easily remove the pin to remove the hitch ball(s). I have linked a review video for the…

We do have a battery box that will work for your needs, but it will be a bit larger than what you're needing. The NOCO Snap Top battery box, part #329-HM082BKS has an inside dimension of 8 inches long, 7 inches tall and 5-3/16 inches wide which…
