• Best Way To Attach Trailer Plug Bracket To A Trailer Hitch Without A Pre Welded Bracket
  As far as the mounting bracket, you can absolutely screw it directly to the hitch if you want. We do this frequently in our own installs and it will not compromise the strength of the hitch in any way. Now putting a few holes in the hitch does open up the potential for rust, since we are compromising the powder coating, but the risk is small. You could use the bracket # BK4F for a 4-flat or use the # C67UR for a 7 way, and a self tapping screw like # 101131802. If you do not want to drill...

• Recommended Mounting Hardware For The Optronics Clearance Lights MC44AB1
  For mounting a clearance light I recommend using a few self tapping screws. Preferably a # 10 or # 8 screw like the # 101131802. You will also want some butyl tape # QR59FR, to weatherproof the screw holes. Hardware for these is basically generic and it really comes down to what surface you are mounting to. Optronics does not sell a hardware kit specifically for the # MCL44AB1 or # MCL44RB1.

• Will the 1/2 Inch Metal Loom Clamps Work On a 5/16 Inch Frame Rail
  Yes, the Metal Loom Clamp part # A0500 will work on a trailer frame that is 5/16" thick. The Metal Loom Clamp will actually work on pretty much any frame thickness but you will need to make note of the size screw used. I recommend the Hex Screw part # 101131802 for a 5/16" thick frame as it is 1/2" long. The Wire Loom part # 459075 can then be added to protect your wiring. I have attached a list of our other wiring accessories for you below as well.

• Can 2 LED Domed Utility/Multipurpose Lights Light Up a 24 Foot Box Truck
  The utility light # ILL24CB has 36 diodes so it will be on the bright side. Two of them will probably provide a decent amount of light but 3 would be better especially if light is essential. Attaching the lights to the ceiling using a high grade automotive type of double-sided tape would suffice. What I recommend is to use self-taping screws, like # 101131802, so you will not have to drill and then just seal the holes with a sealant like # 0160297. It would be best to attach screws to...

• Can a Trailer with Hydraulic Brakes Have Electric Brakes Installed
  It's actually not too difficult to swap out your hydraulic brakes with electric brakes. The main thing will be that you will remove the hubs of your trailer so that you can unbolt the assemblies and then reinstall electric ones. Beyond that you would then wire the assemblies up to the brake output circuit on your trailer wiring. You will want to measure your assemblies like in the photo I attached so that you can pick out the correct replacement to fit your hub. You will need to run wiring...

I recommend the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Trailer Brake Controller # 90885. This is a proportional brake controller with a digital display. It will level automatically when mounted within a 360-degree vertical range. The brake controller installs in your Tacoma...

• Locating the CHMSL and Interior Light Wire to Wire SnugTop Shell on 2000 Chevrolet Silverado

• Cost Effective Wiring To Install 7-Way For Curt Echo Controller on 2008 BMW X5 With Battery in Trunk
  The Curt Trailer Connector Adapter part # C57672 can certainly be used to install a 7-Way on the 2008 BMW X5 to use the Curt Echo Wireless Brake Controller part # C51180 instead of the kit part #ETBC7L.

This kit also comes with all of the components...

Be sure to sand the frame to bare metal here and where you make your light connections to ground. Then you will want to spray paint over the top of the connections to reduce corrosion to the bare steel.
