Good morning, Rich. I do have one resource which you should find helpful. I am sorry to say that at this time we do not have any pictures of videos of the Curt # C62ZV hitch being installed on a Cadillac Lyriq. Reason being we have not had this vehicle in at our shop yet, so no chance to actually install one.
The best resource we can provide is the manufacturer instructions for the Curt # C62ZV hitch. I have linked the instructions for you below. They have a few pictures in there, along... view full answer...
We have lift kits for trailer that easily add 2 inches to the height of the trailer. For that you'd want the part # RR23QX and you'd be set. I attached a picture that shows how it installs to give you an idea. This would be the easiest solution to your situation. view full answer...
I do have an option for you but the Rack'em Heavy Duty Stake Pocket for Flatbed Truck or Trailer part # PK-BSP does require the stake to be tapered at the bottom. I recommend CE Smith Stake Pocket for Flatbed Truck or Trailer - Galvanized Steel part # CE45004G which will accommodate a standard 2 x 4 which commonly measures 1-1/2" x 3-1/2". I have attached a diagram for your reference. view full answer...
The Roadmaster Blackhawk 2 # RM-422 comes with just the tow bar, although one feature it does have is cable guides to protect your safety cables and wiring. The Blackhawk 2 has a shipping weight of 64 lbs, so its weight will pretty close to that.
The comparison between the Blackhack 2 and the Roadmaster Nighthawk All Terrain # RM-677 is the Blackhawk 2 has a weight capacity of 10,000 lbs, the Nighthawk 8,000 lbs: the Blackhawk 2 is made of steel and the Nighthawk is made of aluminum. The... view full answer...
The plug you found at the back of your 2024 Cadillac XT4 should match up with the Curt T-Connector # C44FR and will only show power when the running lights are on, the turn signals are used, or you are pressing the brake pedal. If you're testing it without using any of those functions on your vehicle then that would explain why you aren't seeing power at that connector.
If you did use those functions and you didn't see power then the next thing to check are the fuses related to the trailer... view full answer...
The only trailer hitch that is offered for a 2013 Cadillac ATS is a class I with a 1-1/4" receiver tube opening. For this, I recommend the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 24924 because it does not require any permanent modifications to the vehicle like the other option for your ATS would, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11311.
Therefore, if you need to use a trailer hitch you will have no other option but to use a class I with a 1-1/4" receiver tube opening.... view full answer...
Hi Howard; if this was originally the 2-bike # KU84FR all you need to do is remove the add on # KU57FR to convert it back. If it was originally the 3-bike version # KU24FR you will remove the cradle and hook arm but the arms they attach to will remain extended out as they are now. There are no special instructions or other info you should need to make the conversion. view full answer...
Hi Lewis!
When we installed the EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # EH75KR on a 2024 Cadillac Lyriq, it sat 13.5" when measured from the ground to the inside top of the receiver and 4.5" from the edge of the bumper to the middle of the pin hole. We haven't had the chance to install the Curt # C89RV on a Lyriq yet, but when we installed it on a 2025 Equinox EV (which is on the same platform), we found it 11" and 8" from the edge of the bumper to the middle of the... view full answer...
Hey Matthew, thanks for reaching out!
The Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller # RED24FR should only be showing solid red when you press and hold the control knob to show that you're using the manual override operation. Since it sounds like this isn't working correctly, I recommend verifying that all of your wiring is connected to the correct functions, and that the manual override will activate your trailer brakes.
I see that you used the Plug-and-Play Wiring Harness # 331-TPH-010... view full answer...
Hey David, thanks for all of the info - I'd be more than happy to help you choose a WDH!
For your application I recommend using the Blue Ox SwayPro # BXW0750 which has a tongue weight range of 550 lbs - 750 lbs and uses chains for sway control so they won't be as aggressive as the straight torsion bars.
I know this initially sounds like overkill for the weights that you referenced, but you'll actually need to adjust some thing around inside your trailer prior to installing the SwayPro.... view full answer...
I'd be happy to Jeremy. For your 2024 Cadillac Escalade, you're going to need:
- A base plate kit, the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BLU34GR,
- A set of tow bars, the Roadmaster Nighthawk All-Terrain Tow Bar for Blue Ox Base Plate # RM-677,
- A braking system, the Demco Stay-IN-Play Duo Flat Tow Brake System for RVs w/ Hydraulic Brakes # SM99251 with a battery disconnect # RM-766,
&
- A wiring kit, the Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267. view full answer...
Hey Jeff!
Curts calls out the following tools for installing the Hitch # C82WR on your 2025 Cadillac XT6:
- Torque wrench
- T15 Torx bit
- 7mm and 15mm Sockets
- Flathead screwdriver
- Wrench
Since you'll be removing the rear fascia for this installation, I also recommend picking up the Composite Trim Removal Tool Kit # PT73HJ and some painters tape so you can avoid scratching up your vehicle. Check out the linked video for a step-by-step tutorial on how to get the hitch in place!

For vehicles with auto-leveling suspension the proper setup procedure for weight distribution is to put the full tongue weight on the trailer hitch to activate the vehicle's auto-level function and then from there go through the setup procedure for the weight distribution system. view full answer...
Hey Eric, it's great to hear from you again!
If you're having trouble opening the rear hatch on your 2019 Cadillac Escalade with the Lippert Smart Jack # LC643589 installed on your trailer then you can try to unbolt the jack and turn it to see if that helps with clearance, but I'm not too confident that will give you the clearance you're needing.
Aside from swapping out the jack to something with a smaller profile, I'm afraid the only solution for you would be to avoid getting into the... view full answer...
Hello Derek, thanks for reaching out. Are you trying to set up a charge line for flat towing purposes? If so, yes you can run a power wire from the RV battery to the RV 7-way. Then what you do is add a 6-pin plug to the front of the towed vehicle, then run a wire from the 6-pin plug to the towed battery. We sell kits for the RV side and the towed side. Here is what I recommend:
- Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Motorhomes # RM-156-75
- Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Towed... view full answer...
Hi Dick, welcome back! You won't need anything extra to install the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty # RED26CR. The custom wiring harness will plug into the factory brake controller port for installation. This factory connector will already have the 12V power connection to the battery so once you finish the installation it will be ready to go.
You aren't seeing any power on the brake output at the 7-way because you don't have a brake controller right now. The Liberty will send power back to activate... view full answer...
Hey Kyle, yes we do! We have the EcoHitch part # EH75KR that you referenced which is a fit for your 2027 Cadillac Lyriq and is totally hidden like you asked about. When not in use you can remove the lower hitch opening and you can't see it at all at this point. Are you going to be doing some towing? view full answer...
If the trailer hitch on your vehicle is a Class II hitch, there is a rack specifically designed for use with a three wheel bike. Check out the Hollywood Sport Rider, part # HR1000Z-R-TRKADP. This rack will work with Delta or Tadpole style trike frames. view full answer...
Hey Daniel, yes the Hydrastar actuator part # HS381-8067 that you referenced would run continuously once the pin of the breakaway has been pulled. This is why a battery is part of the breakaway system as it needs that to power the system. Also, yes the system can be reverse bled if needed. Do you have a surge brake setup currently? view full answer...
Hey Tim, we have a front hitch that fits your 2004 Cadillac Escalade with the Curt part # 31302 which would work great but the Draw Tite you mentioned would not work as it does not fit. view full answer...
