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...
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...
Welcome back Blake! We have a couple of different options to add a 7-way connector to your 2017 Cadillac XT5 depending on whether or not you have the factory tow package. If you do it's really simple all you need is the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package item # C56326.
If you do not have the factory tow package you're going to need two separate parts because there isn't just one that'll give you a 7-way connector. The first part you need is the Curt Powered... view full answer...
Hey Mike, thanks for reaching out!
I have 2 different options for you to look at, and it really just depends on what style you're looking for:
The Heavy Duty Magnetic Tow Lights # TL21RK are wired and will work with your 7-Way if you use the Pollak Adapter # PK12716.
For a wireless option we have the Custer Wireless LED Tow Bar Light # LIW-LDTL-7B which plugs in without the adapter and obviously doesn't require you to run wiring along your vehicle and make sure it isn't blowing around... view full answer...
Hi Ed!
I wasn't sure which hitch you were looking at, but I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish - Class III - 2" # e62AR. The matte black finish helps hide it better than glossy options, which I think looks more stock-ish.
The wiring will be a little more difficult, but not overly so. There isn't a wiring harness for your '25 Cadillac XT5 that has both the 7-way and 4-flat, but it is possible to get something that does. You will need to start... view full answer...
For the tire size of 235/55R20 we have great tire chain options available. My favorite is the Konig Easy Fit Chains part # TH04115255 which unlike other options that take a while to install these install in literally seconds, provide great traction, have rim protection, require minimal clearances, and last a very long time.
For the best in terms of rim protection and tire clearance though the K-Summit chains part # TH02230K77 are what you'd want. Unlike other options these don't drape... view full answer...
Hey Sam, to get replacement hardware for your # C13285 hitch you'd need to buy # RHK. You'd just need to enter the hitch's item number in the box, and you'll be all set. view full answer...
For your 2019 Cadillac XT5 the Rhino Rack RVP roof rack part # RR67QJ that you referenced is a confirmed fit and would be a great option for carrying a cargo box. This is a sleek and quiet roof rack that's well made and easy to install without the higher price tags of other options. It would be a great option to carry a larger cargo box like the Thule Motion XT part # TH629907 that can carry up to 22 cubic feet of storage space. view full answer...
Hey Jeffrey, thanks for reaching out!
Yes, the Thule Pack 'n Pedal Tour Rack # TH100090 is a good fit for your Scott Sub Cross 30 XL. I'm not sure what you mean by support bar, but from the images I'm seeing of your bike it looks like the angle of that rear frame is compatible with the rack and the supports for the rack. view full answer...

Hi Jaimee!
The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish - Class III - 2" # e62AR can fit your 2018 Cadillac XT5, but the Platinum package does complicate things. The reason being that stainless steel skid plate they put on the back of them.
You will need to purchase 3 GM parts to get the hitch installed (we do not carry these, so you will need to source them elsewhere) and it is a bit of work to get done, but it can be done. Here are the extra parts you will need:

Hey James, thanks for reaching out!
According to my research, you can dolly tow your 2021 Cadillac XT5 behind a motorhome. In you check out page 363 of your owner's manual you'll be able to verify this as well.
If you don't already have a tow dolly then I highly recommend the Demco Kar Kaddy SS # DM9713045. I really like this dolly because it gives you disc brakes for smooth braking, and then the tongue folds up for storage. The tongue folding doesn't seem like a big deal, but when you... view full answer...
Hey Frank, thanks for reaching out!
According to page 321 of the online owner's manual it states that you can use a tow dolly for transporting your 2020 Cadillac XT5, but it's always a good idea to check your copy as well. As far as issues go, we haven't heard anything so you should be good to go.
If you don't already have a tow dolly then I recommend picking up the Demco Kar Kaddy SS Tow Dolly # DM9713045 because it has better performance with the disc brakes and steerable axle, plus... view full answer...
Hi Donald!
We definitely have what you are looking for! I have an option for a 4-Flat and a 7-Way below that are plug and play for your 2024 Cadillac XT5:
4-Flat:
Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package - 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C56325
7-Way:
Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package - 7-Way Trailer Connector # 118276
Do you know if what you are going to be towing will have brakes? The 7-Way will be what you want if it does. The 4-Flat... view full answer...
Hey Gregg. The only hitches available for the 2021 Cadillac XT5 are 2" ones like our etrailer item # e62AR. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver that has a 750 lbs maximum tongue weight.
What specific make and model bike rack do you have? Most of the ones that fit a 1-1/4" hitch won't let you use an adapter like the MaxxTow item # MT70033. You'll want to use a reducer sleeve like item # e63YR. This simply slides into the 2" receiver and makes it smaller so a 1-1/4" accessory will... view full answer...
Hello Darla, thanks for reaching out. I recommend using a Yakima JetStream bar roof rack on your 2023 Cadillac XT5. The Yakima Crossbars will be compatible with the Thule Hullavator # TH898, and there will be enough overhang on the crossbars to properly support the Hullavator system. The complete roof rack consists of the following parts:
- Yakima JetStream Crossbars - Aluminum - Silver - 60" Long - Qty 2 # Y00429
- SkyLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars - Fixed Mounting Points, Flush Rails,... view full answer...
Hey Patrick, so when we installed the Curt hitch part # C13285 on a similar 2018 Cadillac XT5 we found there was 5-3/4 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the outer edge of the rear bumper. view full answer...
Hey Joel, for your 2017 Cadillac XT5 the easiest brake controller solution would be the Curt Echo Mobile part # C51180 which basically just plugs into an active 7-way and once synced to your smart phone is ready to tow without any extensive wiring.
To convert your 4-way to a 7-way so that you can install this you'd just want the part # ETBC7L and you'd be set. view full answer...
Dany, I spoke with BulletProof Hitches and they said the overall channel width of the BulletProof Hitches 2-Ball Mount # MD204 is 3 5/8", the distance from the closest pin hole to the channel is 6 /2", and the farthest pin hole to the channel is 8". view full answer...
Hi Bob,
We do indeed have trailer hitches that fit a 2023 Cadillac XT5, with a great option being the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13285.
We've actually installed the # C13285 on a '23 XT5, and I've added a photo showing what it looks like when installed. view full answer...
