• Trailer Hitch, Wiring, Brake Controller and Accessories for a 2011 Nissan Xterra
  For your 2011 Nissan Xterra Curt hitch # 13514 and wiring harness # 118266 will work just fine. Brake controller and harness # C24VV and # C51515 are also going to work just fine. But instead of using # ETBC7 you would use # 5506. this is because you do not need all of the stuff included with the ETBC7. You will still need to route the brake controller blue output wire to the back of the 7-Way, attach it to the back of the 7-Way in the 7 o'clock position. Remove the wire that is already...

• Weight of Curt 13013 Class III Hitch for 1998 Toyota Tacoma
  Minus the packaging, the Curt Class III hitch, part # 13013 will weigh a bit under 40 lbs. The effect of 40 extra pounds on your vehicle's gas mileage would be miniscule, you shouldn't notice a difference. The hitch will work great on your Tacoma.

• Locating Correct Ball Mount to Connect with Trailer on Mazda CX-5 with Low Ground Clearance
  I do have a solution for you, however there is definitely not enough ground clearance at the hitch connection between your Mazda CX-5 and 6x12 utility trailer. Any slight incline or bump in the road is going to cause issues with your current setup. To add clearance while also ensuring that the trailer itself is level when connected (it's a little hard to tell in the picture but it does appear that the tongue/trailer is nose low), you will need a ball mount with a larger rise such as...

• Selecting The Correct Trailer Hitch Ball Mount For a 2020 Honda CR-V
  Honda list the ground clearance of the 2020 Honda CR-V all wheel drive trims at 8.2" and the front wheel drive trims at 7.8". It is really hard to recommend a ball mount rise height without knowing the coupler height for the trailer. It is important to remember when calculating rise or drop this is done based on the measurement to the inside top of the receiver. This should be around 13-1/2" based for an AWD CR-V with the Draw-Tite Receiver # 76128 we installed it on in our shop. I like...

• Will Installed Trailer Hitch Block Hands-Free Liftgate Feature on 2019 Ford Edge
  Actually, all of the hitches available for the 2019 Ford Edge, regardless of trim level will have the sensors for the Hands-Free liftgate feature blocked at the middle of the bumper. This is because the receiver tube extends below the bumper and would sit between where you'd sweep your foot and the liftgate sensor. The system uses 3 or 4 sensors (depends on the vehicle) and the sensors will still pick up movement but you'll need to sweep your foot to the left or right of the center of the...

• Recommended Trailer Hitch and Liftgate Interference on 2017 Ford Edge Sport

Actually, the Draw-Tite # 75234 could be a better choice. The hitch crossbar is concealed behind the bumper, with will interfere with the sensors to a lesser degree. Many folks don't care for the look of the crossbar,...

• Parts Needed To Tow A Lightweight Trailer With 2015 Honda Odyssey
  To tow a smaller trailer with the 2015 Honda Odyssey you will need a hitch, lock, ball mount, ball and wiring. If the trailer has electric brakes, you will also need a 7-Way plug on the vehicle and a brake controller. I recommend to use the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 76025 on the Odyssey because it will work well to tow the trailer and also give you a clean OEM look. It is a concealed cross tube design so the only part of the hitch that is visible once installed...

• How to Choose a Ball Mount to Correct for Different Hitch and Trailer Heights
  When the trailer hitch on the vehicle and the coupler on the trailer have different heights you can use a ball mount with the required amount of rise or drop to allow the hitched trailer to remain level. It is important to keep the trailer's frame level when towing for better handling. Since your trailer's coupler is about 4-1/2-inches taller than your hitch receiver you will want to select a ball mount that has about 4-inches of RISE, to bring the hitch ball up to the height of the trailer...

  To tow the small Pace American 4 x 6 enclosed cargo trailer with the 2020 Jeep Cherokee you will need a hitch (you already have), 4-way wiring, a ball mount, lock and hitch ball.

• Trailer Hitch and Trailer Wiring Harness Recommendation for 2020 Toyota RAV4 Adventure
  The two hitches available for your 2020 Toyota RAV4, the Curt # C13416 and Draw-Tite # DT82QR are just about identical visually with very similar capacities. They would install in the same manner with similar procedures. Both hitches are pretty much on par with each other quality-wise, but the Curt powder coat typically looks a little better and is a bit more durable over time than that of the Draw-Tite # DT82QR. If I had to choose, I'd go with the Curt model but you could choose either...

• Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13381 Height When Installed On a 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan
  When we installed the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13381 on a 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan in our shop the top inside of the receiver tube sat at 11-1/2" tall. Using a Curt Multi-Ball Mount # C62KR that does not have a rise or drop would put your coupler height at 12" to the bottom of the coupler. Without knowing the height of your 14 foot john boat trailer when it sits level I cannot tell you if you will need a rise style ball mount like the Curt Ball Mount # C45070. If you can tell me...

• Trailer Hitch and Ball Mount Recommendation for 2022 Hyunda Tucson to Tow Tag XL Trailer
  For a hitch for your 2022 Hyundai Tucson PHEV we have the Curt # C94WR which would work really well as it's mostly hidden and has great towing capacities, but for picking out a ball mount that's the correct rise/drop the key is going with a ball mount that will allow the trailer to tow as level as possible. I did some research on the Tag XL trailer and it's coupler height is going to be right around 18-1/2 to 19 inches when measured from bottom lip of it down to the ground. When we installed...
