Expert Answers about Hidden Hitch

  • Is the Ball Mount Plate that Comes with the Adjustable Ball Mount, # 80412, Sold Separately
  • Yes. You can get the Replacement Ball Mount Plate, # 80418, without having to get the shank as well. This plate will fit the 2 inch wide shank and has hole spacing of 3 inches center to center, so the measurements are consistent with the shank that comes with 80412.

  • The Hidden Hitch Class III, part # 87457 you mentioned has a 3500 lb towing, 350 lb tongue weight (the maximum amount of weight that can safely be suspended from the hitch) capacity. However, these capacities will be limited by the actual towing capacity of the Rouge, which is lower. I did some online research, and found that the 2010 Nissan Rogue with the CVT transmission with the manual shift mode is capable of towing up to 1500 lbs, and non-manual shift mode equipped models are limited to 100

  • What Size Bolt Attaches Into the Frame When Installing Hidden Hitch # 87420 on a 2002 Mazda MPV

Bolt # 1 is a hex bolt which is 1/2-13 x 1-3/4 inches Bolt # 2 is a hex bolt which is M10 x 1.25x40mm Bolt # 3 is a carriage bolt that is 1/2-13 x 1-3/4 inches The bolt that goes into your frame where there is an existing weld nut is bolt # 2.

  • To install the Hidden Hitch Trailer Hitch # 87435 you will need to remove the rear fascia panel and you will not be able to reinstall it as long as the hitch is installed. I attached installation instructions and video for this hitch on a similar Enclave as yours for you to check out.

  • Can Curt Dual Receiver Adapter # D-192 Be Used to Tow and Support a Cargo Carrier on 2011 Jeep
  • Use of any hitch adapter or extender, such as the Curt Dual 2-Inch Receiver Tube Adapter, part # D-192, will reduce your hitch capacity by 50 percent. This reduction in hitch weight capacity occurs as a result of the change in the geometry of how the weight load is applied to the hitch. In the case of your 2011 Jeep Wrangler all of the 2-inch hitch receivers we offer all have a 350-lb tongue weight rating; with this cut in half by use of an adapter/extender, you would have only 175-lb tongue

  • Mounting Bolts Supplied with Hidden Hitch Receiver # 87609 Seem Too Large for 2012 Nissan Quest
  • The hardware supplied with the Hidden Hitch Receiver # 87609 for the 2012 Nissan Quest is specific to your vehicle. It may be that the threads in the weld nuts on the frame are dirty. It is not uncommon for road dirt to find its way into the threads and accumulate, making it difficult to get the bolts started. You can try using a spray-on penetrating rust remover (such as part # L10446) and a brush (such as part # DW00254) to clean out any debris from the threads, as shown in the linked insta

  • Transmission Cooler Recommendation for 2008 Nissan Frontier Towing 6000 lb Trailer
  • The towing capacity of your Frontier will vary according to the engine it was equipped with. 4 cylinder models are limited to 3500 lbs, so if your truck has the 4 cylinder engine, I would recommend towing with a higher-rated vehicle. If your Frontier has the 6 cylinder motor and is 2WD, the towing capacity is 6300 lbs and 6100 lbs for 4WD models. In either case, the trailer you are towing is very close to the maximum capacity of the vehicle and a transmission cooler would be highly recommende

This hitch was designed to fit the Dodge Dakota years 1995 to 2004. If you plan on doing some towing, you will also want to pick up a wiring harness. The wiring harness that I recommend for your truck is the Tow Ready T-One Harness, # 118329. This harness will simply plug into your tail light assemblies and does not require any cu

  • Recommended Solution for Carrying Four Bikes on 2005 Honda Accord V6 Hybrid
  • For your 2005 Accord Hybrid, I would recommend the Draw-Tite Class I receiver part # 24787. The hitch is indeed compatible with Hybrid models, and V6 models will require drilling in the heat shields. As you can see by the instructions and installation video I have linked you to, installation is pretty straightforward. Due to the limited (200 lb) tongue weight capacity of a Class I receiver, the hitch and bike rack manufacturers both agree that any bike rack used in a Class I hitch should be l

  • Troubleshooting Red Dot Not Appearing on a Pilot # 80550 with Manual Override Slid
  • It sounds like the controller could be working correctly. I would recommend you connect to a trailer and try again to see if the problem persists. The manual override typically will need to see a load on the circuit before it will actually put any voltage on the output circuit. So try connecting to a trailer and let me know what happens by emailing me back.

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation to Carry Bikes and a Bike Rack on a 2010 Toyota Venza
  • In terms of appearance both Class II and III trailer hitches for the 2010 Toyota Venza will have the crosstube and receiver visible just below the rear fascia. A Class II hitch, being slightly smaller, will allow for a little more ground clearance. A Class II trailer hitch can handle up to 4 bikes with the appropriate bike rack. For a Class II trailer hitch that does not require a stabilization strap I recommend # 36512. It has a tongue weight capacity of 300 pounds which is more than enough

  • Unidentified Error Codes on a Reese Brakeman Trailer Brake Controller
  • Do the error coeds appear with or without a trailer connected or both? Based on what you are seeing I believe there is an overload condition on your Brakeman controller. This could happen for several reasons. First, sever the blue wire from the back of the controller. Next use a circuit tester like # 3808 if needed to test the end coming from the controller. It should only show a signal when you apply the manual override. If it shows power at any other time then there is something wrong insid

  • Trailer Hitch that Fits a 2012 Dodge Durango R/T with a 20 Inch Spare Tire
  • Hidden Hitch trailer hitch # 87608 is compatible with the 18 inch full size spare but a 20 inch may be too large; however the R/T is not excluded from the hitch fit list. If you look at the instructions which I have linked for you, the hitch fits on the outside of the spare cavity, so left to right it should not be an issue, even with a 20 inch spare. However, front to back could be the issue and you may have to relocate the hanger for the spare if possible or it could be difficult to get the sp

He said the lower fascia may be different on the RS models but that it did not hang down any further than the non-RS models so it would not be an issue. The lowered suspension does not matter either.

  • Does the Adapter 4 Way to 6 Way # 30104 Interfere with Surge Brakes
  • Surge brakes operate completely independently from trailer wiring so if you were to use a Adapter 4 Way Flat to 6 Way Square # 30104 you would not have any interference with your surge brake performance. Unless you have a reverse lockout solenoid on your surge actuator. If that is the case you will need a wire that runs from the reverse light circuit to the solenoid so that you can reverse your trailer without the actuator activating the brakes of the trailer.
