• Does the Muffler Have to be Removed to Install a Trailer Hitch on a 2005 Scion xB
  According to the installation instructions for CURT Trailer Hitch, # 11487, you will not need to remove the muffler in order to install the hitch on your 2005 Scion xB. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you to view. The hitch comes with a ball mount, hitch pin, and clip. If you plan to do some towing you will need a ball, # 19256 (1-7/8 inch diameter) or # 19258 (2 inch diameter). For trailer wiring, use Curt Wiring Harness, # C56030. I have included a link to...

• Correct Trailer Hitch Fit for a 2006 Scion xB

• Hidden Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2006 Scion xB
  Yes, if you install a trailer hitch on your 2006 Scion xB you would be able to connect to a rental trailer. I really like this hitch as it's totally hidden when not in use. You'd need to use the ball mount part # 28451 and for hitch balls part # 19258 for a 2 inch ball or part # 19256 for a 1-7/8 inch ball. For trailer wiring you'd then want the Curt # C56030 which installs easily without splicing and has a very reliable converter box. To help with rear suspension sag when towing we have...

• Can the Tongue Weight of a Vehicle Be Increased
  I may have a solution for you to haul your TVs, but there is no way for the tongue weight of a vehicle to be increased. To start, the tongue weight refers to the amount of weight that can be added to the frame of the vehicle safely, so there isn't a way to add to that capacity. With that said, the Curt # C11487 would be a great hitch for your 2006 Scion xB because of the durable powder coating that Curt hitches come with. Once you've got the hitch, you would need to get a small utility...

• Can a 2006 Scion xB with a Curt Hitch Tow a Sailboat and Trailer that Weigh 400 lbs
  The Curt Trailer Hitch # 11487 that you referenced has towing capacities of 2,000 gross trailer weight and 200 lbs tongue weight. If your sailboat and trailer only weighs 400 lbs and you can lift the tongue of the trailer with one hand this hitch should be more than adequate for your 2006 Scion xB. I attached installation instructions for this product for you to check out. It would still be a good idea to check the tongue weight of your trailer when its loaded just to be sure. I linked...

• Ball Mount Recommendation for Use with Curt Hitch # C11487
  Sounds like you might be looking for the correct draw bar, or ball mount, for use with the Curt hitch part # C11487 that you referenced. For that Curt recommends the part # C45521. For a hitch ball you'd then want the part # A-82 for a 2 inch ball or part # A-80 for a 1-7/8 inch ball. For a pin and clip part # F-4. If you needed trailer wiring you'd want the Curt kit part # C56030 which is an easy to install kit that does not require splicing.

• Installing Trailer Wiring Harness on 2006 Scion xB
  The Curt # C56175 trailer wiring harness you mentioned is not a vehicle specific item, it can be used with many different vehicles and therefore there are no vehicle specific instructions available. To install the wiring harness, having a circuit tester like part # 40376 would be very helpful. Locate the wiring harness feeding both of the taillight assemblies. You might need to do some disassembly in the cargo area of the vehicle or remove the taillight assemblies as if you were replacing...

• Recommendation for Carrying a Pronto M91 Electric Wheelchair with a 2006 Scion xB
  With the 2006 Scion xB having a maximum tongue weight capacity of 200 pounds, I am going to suggest a different option to pull the Pronto M91 electric wheelchair. You will need to start the same way with a trailer hitch, like the Curt # C11487, but you will need a few more parts to complete this set up. From here you will need a ball mount, like # C45521, a pin/clip to keep it in the hitch, # F-4, and a 2" ball, # A-82, to install in the ball mount. You will also need a wiring harness,...

• Correct Trailer Wiring Harness for 2006 Scion xB
  The Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56030 that you mentioned is the correct custom harness for your 2006 Scion xB. From what I could find, your vehicle's factory wiring system should have the brake and turn signals sent along separate circuits. This Curt harness includes a converter to combine these two circuits so that they're compatible with standard trailer wiring (which has the brake and turn signals sent along the same wire for each side). I'm not quite sure what you mean...

• Why Does Trailer Wiring for 2005 Scion xB Require Taillight Converter
  So trailer wiring has the turn signals and the stoplights on the same circuit and the running lights on another. Some vehicles are wired like this too but some are also wired where the blinker is on a separate bulb from the brake lights. So the convert the separate style to a combined style a converter box is needed. That's what comes with the trailer wiring harnesses that fit your 2005 Scion xB like the Tekonsha part # 118414 which is a confirmed fit and the best option as it installs...

• How to Transport a Powerchair with a 2006 Scion xB
  I can definitely offer a solution to transport your wife's heavy powerchair but you are in a bit of a pickle. Your 2006 Scion xB was designed as a passenger vehicle which is why there is only 1 trailer hitch available, the Class I Curt # C11487 with the 1-1/4" receiver, and your owner's manual advises against towing anything with it. With that being said, the safest option for you is to use a small trailer to transport the powerchair. This trailer hitch has a tongue weight capacity of...

• Trailer Hitch and Wiring Recommendation for a 2006 Scion xB
