  • Wiring Location For Trailer Brake Controller On a 2021 Buick Enclave With Factory Trailer Package
  • Your 2021 Buick Enclave has a wiring pigtail and not a connector for wiring a Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller # RED44FR. The 4 wires are located below the OBD2 port behind the side kick plate(see Image). This is where you will be able to attach the included pigtail using the Heat Shrink Butt Connectors # DW05744-5 and # DW05745-5. You will only need 2 of each connectors for the 4 wires that connect to the brake controller pigtail.

  • Does Steering Wheel of Vehicle Need to Lock to Tow On Tow Dolly
  • When towing a vehicle on a dolly like the part # RM-2050-1 that you referenced you need the steering wheel to be locked so that around corners the dolly fenders don't hit the door or fender of the vehicle. If your steering wheel doesn't lock when the key is off you can use your seat belt to lock it. Wrap the seat belt a couple times around the steering wheel and then buckle it in place. Now pull the seat belt all the way out so that as you let it retract it locks. Now your wheel will be locked.

  • Can A Class III Ball Mount Be Used On a Class II Hitch
  • If you're asking whether or not a 2" Reese ball mount can be used with the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C12115, then the answer is no because this hitch only has an 1 1/4" receiver. Without swapping the hitch out with a 2" hitch you'd have to use a hitch expander like the Hitch Adapter 1-1/4" to 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver # HTAD, but using this expander will cut the tongue weight capacity of your hitch by 50% which would make the hitch pretty much useless. Your best bet is to just use...

  • Can An 8 Inch Trailer Wheel Be Switched With A 12 Inch Trailer Wheel?
  • There are a couple of things to consider if you decide to swap out your 8" trailer wheel like the Kenda 4.80/4.00-8 Bias Trailer Tire with 8" White Wheel # AM30060, with a larger 12" tire like the Aluminum Spoke Wheel for Malone MicroSport and MicroSportXT Trailer # MPG469. The first, which it sounds like you've already thought about is the height issue. When going from an 8" wheel to a 12" wheel you are going to gain about 4" of additional wheel diameter.

  • Which Rack is Lowest to the Ground the RockyMounts Solo, Thule T1 or Saris Freedom
  • If you have narrowed your decision down to two the RockyMounts MonoRail # RKY10007 and the Saris Freedom # SA4412B, I would encourage to take a look at one more, the or theRockyMounts HighNoon FC Solo # RKY87RR.
