• Can I Move the Mounting Spots on my Sears Cargo Box to Work With Bars Spread Further Apart?
  Yes. You are able to move the mounting hardware on your Sears Sport 15 roof top cargo carrier to accommodate mounting it on wider crossbar spreads. You'll need to drill new holes to match the new spacing and then re-seal the box by filling the old holes with a sealant like the Loctite # LT37467 . If you need new mounting hardware, you can use the Replacement Hardware Kit for Sears Cargo Boxes # TH05603 which will provide you with new U Bolts for mounting your Sears box to cross bars...

• Can You Drill Holes in a Thule Cargo Box to Move it Forward and Clear the Rear Hatch
  Yes, you can drill new holes in your Thule Frontier Cargo Box in order to clear the rear hatch on your 2018 Subaru Outback Wagon. I also recommend using part # LT37467 to cover up the old holes so water doesn't get in. The only thing you need to be aware of when drilling new holes is how you load the cargo box. Since the front of the box is going to be moved further away from the crossbars you will just want to make sure you keep the heavier items towards the rear and centered on the crossbars.

• Recommendation for Adding Battery to Toolbox on Travel Trailer Tongue
  Depending on how you mount the battery inside the tongue mounted tool box like # MT80350, you may or may not need longer battery cables. Since your battery is already mounted in this location, you most likely just need to drill holes and reconnect the same wires. I recommend using the Loctite RTV 598 High-Performance Silicone Gasket Maker # LT37467 to seal those holes to protect moisture from becoming an issue. If you need to run longer cables, I recommend you not splice in a portion,...

• Recommended Parts to Re-Install Lock Mechanism on 1997 Thule Rooftop Cargo Box
  Thule does not supply the cargo box lock mounting rivets as replacement parts; this is because these are not intended to be removed. But you certainly can substitute other hardware, and that does not necessarily even have to be rivets, to re-install the lock assembly on your '97 Thule cargo box. Since this hardware will see some exposure to the elements I suggest that you select stainless-steel bolts, washers and nuts. Your local full-service hardware store should have a decent assortment...

• Recommended Retro-Fit for Cargo Carrier With New Car and Wider Crossbar Spread or Replacement Box
  Drilling new holes in your Sport 20-SV cargo carrier will allow you to mount it to your 2018 Toyota Highlander, but it may change the weight capacity of the carrier. If you choose to use this method, then I recommend the Loctite RTV 598 High-Performance Silicone Gasket Maker - Black # LT37467 to make your carrier water-tight by filling the old holes.

• Recommended 2016 Keystone Sprinter Control Box Sealant
  The sealant on the Lippert Control box you referenced is simply a high performance gasket sealant. I recommend the Loctite RTV 598 High-Performance Silicone Gasket Maker - Black # LT37467 as a replacement to keep that box sealed tight from the elements. Keep a wet rag close by when using this as it can be messy and also sticky. It will take only 30 minutes to set but 24 hours to cure.

• 2-Piece Polypropylene Trailer Vent for 3 Diameter Hole - Black HMAV2-AVT2 Installation Guide
  For the 2-Piece Polypropylene Trailer Vent for 3" Diameter Hole - Black Item # HMAV2-AVT2 I have sent in an update to resolve the pricing issue, but yes the if you order the HMAV2 and the AVT2 separately you will still receive the same parts that are in the bundle. Turning the vent slots forward would allow for more airflow when pulling the trailer but will also cause more drag and incase the likely-hood of water getting inside the vent and damaging the walls of your trailer so best practice...

• How to Mount 7 Way to 2019 Subaru Outback With Hidden Cross Tube Hitch
  I understand the frustration, manufacturers are making hitches more hidden and sleek. It's nice having the cross bar hidden, but it does make it challenging to mount wiring because that's the traditional spot. You can route the 4 pole wire out to the bumper through a grommet that is under the spare tire. I have done that many times to get the wires out towards the hitch, you'll just want to make sure the wire is protected and to seal the grommet up with some silicone # LT37467. You...

• Can the Curt T-Connector be Permanently Mounted on the Outside of a 2019 Toyota Highlander
  Yes, you definitely can mount the Curt T-Connector # C56217 next to your hitch receiver so that it is readily available. We haven't had any customers come in and ask for it to be installed that specific way yet (January 2019) so I don't have a video, but there should be a grommet in the rear cargo area of your 2019 Toyota Highlander that you can push the 4-Way Flat connector through. If you need to cut the grommet to push the connector through then you can use some sealant like the...

• How To Install Valterra Eccentric Tank Reducer
  The Valterra Eccentric Tank Reducer part # T1041-1 has a 3" spigot end which installs inside the neck on the waste water tank and then a 1-1/2" hub end which you would slide a pipe into. In order to secure the spigot end into the neck on the tank you will want to use some gasket maker part # LT37467 on the outside of the spigot fitting or on the inside of the water neck and then use a band clamp part # H03-0009 to clamp down on the waste water neck and hold the spigot fitting in place....

• Are There Replacement U-Bolts For Thule Evolution Cargo Box
  I may have a solution for you, but there is not a U-bolt available from Thule that is 3-1/2" wide by 3" deep. The closest option available is the Replacement U-Bolt for Thule Trail Large and Medium Cargo Baskets # 1500052553 that is 3-1/2" wide and 1-5/8" deep. Depending on the bar type, you could likely make this work; aero style bars would be the best fit since they'll have the lowest height in most cases. If you wanted to do some light modification then you could technically use any...

• Replacement Locking Hardware for Thule Frontier 668 Rooftop Cargo Box
  I reached out to my contact at Thule and the bars you are seeking are not available as a replacement option. They have discontinued those style locks so you will be forced to improvise or upgrade. If you choose to improvise, I recommend installing the Replacement Bottom Lock Bracket for SportRack Explorer Cargo Box # SR00841 and the Replacement Lock Core and Key for SportRack Explorer Cargo Box - Qty 1 # SR03807. This will give you the lock and the latch needed to secure your box,...

• How to Mount Yakima SpaceCase Cargo Box to Factory Crossbars on 2020 Subaru Forester
  I do have a solution for you, however I reached out to my contact at Yakima and he said the Universal MightyMounts # Y03590 aren't compatible with your older SpaceCase Cargo Box. The mounting hardware for the SpaceCase is a bit different and you won't be able to properly attach the MightyMount clamps. Your best route for mounting the SpaceCase to the wider aero-style factory crossbars on your new Forester is to replace its existing hardware with part # 8870098. This kit consists of...

• Is Sealant Required for the Replacement Rubber Grommet for RV Black Water Tanks
  In order to help prevent leaking between the grommet and tank on the Replacement Rubber Grommet for RV Black Water Tanks part # F02-2106 it would be wise to use a sealant like part # LT37467 between the two surfaces. I am not sure if this is a requirement or not but it won't hurt. That said, you wouldn't need any sealant for the pipe side, just a hose clamp like part # H03-0018.

• Replacement Lock for Sears Sport 15-CAV Rooftop Cargo Box
  Your Sears Sport 15-CAV rooftop cargo box was made by Thule. Thule used several types of locks over the years and the best option that is still offered is part # SR03807.

If you have open holes in the box these can be sealed up with a silicone sealant like # LT37467. This will help protect the contents inside the box.

• Installing Buyers Products Utility Storage Box
  The Buyers Products Utility Storage Box - Black - 44" x 19" x 17-1/4" # 3371712240 does not come with any installation hardware. Because of the style of box you can drill through the bottom and use zinc plated bolts, and locknuts or you can use U-bolts. The length and size can vary as it will be dependent on your specific application. For example, the Replacement Cutting Edge Carriage Bolts and Nuts for Boss Snowplow - 5/8" x 2" - Qty 10 # 3371301064 could work well. I recommend...

  Furrion and RVS camera systems use different mounts so the RVS Extendable Monitor Mount # RVS-1419 will not be compatible with your Furrion monitor.
