The Replacement Spring # 4769-28 that you referenced will install onto the pawl assembly of your winch. Check out the pictures I attached that show an exploded diagram to see how it installs. view full answer...
The B&W Tow and Stow ball mount # BWTS10049B will have some great features. You can stow the mounting platform that has the 3 hitch balls (1-7/8, 2, and 2-5/16 inch) underneath your vehicle. This is nice because you will eliminate the possibility of hitting your shins while working around your hitch.
The adjustable height will allow you the ability to tow trailers of different heights. The maximum drop is 7-inches and maximum rise is 7-1/2 inches. They are adjusted in 1-inch increments.

It looks like the 45 lb weight rating that you're seeing is only for the OEM crossbars that came with your 2017 Ford Escape. For your application I recommend going with the Inno roof rack because it has a higher weight capacity at 140 lbs, an easy-to-use T-Slot system for mounting accessories, and the legs come with locks so you can deter theft of your roof rack system:
54" Inno Aero Crossbars - # INXB138-2
Inno Through Feet - # INXS150

I looked at a copy of the owners manual for the 2011 Ford Escape and it states that gross trailer weight capacity of the vehicle, with a 2.5 liter motor, is 1500 pounds, and for the 3.0 liter 3500 pounds. This would make the tongue weight capacity 150 pounds or 350 pounds (10 percent of the gross trailer weight) depending on which motor you have.
It sounds like they may have sold you more trailer than what the vehicle is capable of. The 342 pound tongue weight as the dry tongue weight... view full answer...
To add a 7-way connector to your 2020 Ford Escape you have to have a 4-way connector like item # C75CR already installed. There are no custom fit 7-way harnesses for your Escape so you will need to use the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller item # ETBC7. The kit includes a pre-wired 7- and 4-way trailer connector that mounts easily at the rear of your vehicle with an included bracket. This kit is designed for use on a vehicle with an existing 4-way flat trailer connector... view full answer...
On the Malone MicroSport Trailer # MPG460G the overall width side to side is 65 inches because the crossbars are the widest part of it. The trailer itself is about 55 inches wide if the bars were taking off. The overall length without an extension is 14 feet but that can be adjusted to be shorter using the retractable tongue kit you mentioned # MPG494. The overall height to the top of a crossbar is 30-1/2 inches.
The tongue by itself is 8 feet long. The use of the retractable kit reduces... view full answer...
I checked with our vendors and the correct wiring harness for a 2023 Ford Escape Plug In Hybrid is the Curt Powered Tail Light Converter with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector item # C59236. This wiring harness is not plug and play and will need to be spliced in to install.
The Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness item # C75CR you were looking at stopped fitting in 2022 and did not fit the hybrid Escapes. view full answer...
The Swagman XC 2 Bike Rack, # S64650, weighs right around 25 lbs. It definitely isn't one of the heavier bike racks out there, but if weight is a bit of a concern, I would strongly suggest looking at the Hollywood Racks Destination Bike Rack, # HLY94FR.
This bike rack weighs only 20 lbs, it is a step up in quality and I really like the mounting clamps versus the frame hooks of the XC bike rack so a frame adapter won't be needed for women's bikes with step-through frames. I can also tell... view full answer...
The wording on the tire means your tires are 10-ply tires (Load Range E) that have a maximum capacity of 1,520 pounds at 90 psi. Always go by the ratings that are stamped on the tires.
Trailer tires should always be inflated to their maximum psi (90 psi in your case) with the tires cold. They're designed to heat up while driving but they will heat up more than designed if they are not inflated to the maximum psi.
If you're looking at replacing the tires the new tire size is 205/65-10.... view full answer...
I walked out to our warehouse and pulled the Ventline Ventadome Trailer Roof Vent, part # V2110SP-24, from our inventory to measure.
The outside edge of the vent flange measured approximately 16-1/2 inches square. The actual opening of the vent measured approximately 14-1/2 inches square. The depth of the vent from the inside flange to the outside flange measured approximately 2 inches tall.
I took a picture of Roof Vent # V2110SP-24 and used Photoshop to illustrate the measurements. view full answer...
To install a Roadmaster base plate on a 2023 Ford Escape PHEV, you will want the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit item # RM77GR. I checked with Roadmaster and this base plate has been confirmed to fit the Hybrid and
Plug-In Hybrid models. I have linked an installation video below to help you get it set up.
Some other parts you will need to tow your 2023 Ford Escape Plug-In Hybrid are listed below:

I contacted Curt on your behalf regarding the Curt Anti-Rattle Kit for 2" Trailer Hitches # C22321. You can definitely tow with this anti-rattle pin kit. Hitch pins overall are not weight rated and the majority of the tongue weight and towing weight is not directly on the hitch pin. There will be no capacity concern using this threaded hitch pin with anti-rattle on a 2 inch hitch receiver with the exception of any solid shank accessory. view full answer...
You will definitely want to go with a class III 2" hitch since you are planning on getting a 4-bike bike rack. You will need all of the capacity you can get. I recommend the etrailer Hitch item # e98866. This hitch is custom fit for your 2019 Ford Escape and bolts to it with included hardware.
The etrailer hitch item # e98866 has a 350 lbs maximum tongue weight. Tongue weight is the weight of the bike rack and bikes combined. If you went with a class II 1-1/4" hitch the most you would... view full answer...
Yes, I can. To install a 7-Way harness on your 2023 Ford Escape without the towing package, you will need two separate wiring harnesses because they don't make just one that'll do the job.
The first harness you'll need is the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness item # C59236. This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your Escape's wiring harness, which is located behind the tail lights. This will provide you with a 4-flat connector.
The second harness you will need is the Universal Installation... view full answer...
I looked up the towing capacity of your 2015 Ford Escape Titanium 2.0 Turbo and it has a capacity of 3,500 lbs so a 1,900 lb boat and trailer wouldn't be an issue at all. The factory trailer anti-sway feature that your vehicle lacks is not something you have to have. You'll do just fine without it.
For a hitch I recommend the Draw Tite # 75782 that you referenced because it has the same towing capacity as your vehicle at 3,500 lbs, has a 2 inch opening, and has a concealed crosstube which... view full answer...
You'll want to confirm the fully-loaded weight of the trailer you wish to tow and compare that to both the vehicle's rating as noted in the owner's manual and to the rating of the hitch that is on it, or the one you intend to install. Many vehicles, including your 2008 Ford Escape (I drive an 08 Escape too!) can vary in their towing capacity depending on the specific equipment.
If a car and the hitch you put on it have different towing capacities then the lower of the two always becomes... view full answer...
If I were installing the Timbren Axle-Less Suspension System, # A12WS545, on my trailer, I would use a 2 inch steel tubing with a wall thickness of 1/4 inch. I spoke with my contact at Timbren and he told me that they do not have a minimum thickness that they require as long as it was a 2 inch steel square tube.
It is recommended that you add this tube if your trailer does not have a crossmember above the suspension and 1/4 inch is a common wall thickness for a 2 inch square axle. view full answer...
If you choose a 2013 Ford Escape that has the factory tow package and has a towing capacity of 3,500 pounds then it can handle the light tent trailer without issue. What you will want to look at is the gross combined weight rating. This rating is the most the vehicle and trailer can be including passengers, fuel, and luggage.
Ford did not put this specific information in the owners manual that I found online, only how to find it on the vehicle. If you look in the drivers side door jamb... view full answer...
Actually it fits both! The etrailer Hitch item # e89YR is confirmed to fit all models of the 2023 Ford Escape. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Ford with included hardware. I really like this hitch because the crossbar is completely concealed behind the rear bumper and the 2" receiver is all that is visible. This not only gives you a better appearance but also helps with ground clearance.
This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a 3,500 lbs towing capacity, and a... view full answer...
Yes, it will but you will need one more part. The Evo Flush Rail Feet item # TH710601 and the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars item # TH711420 will fit your 2020 Ford Escape. These mount directly to the flush mount roof rails using the Fit Kit for Thule Evo Flush Rail item # TH96RV. This roof rack system will give you a 165 lbs capacity for carrying kayaks.
I recommend adding the Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders item # TH450400 to secure the roof rack to your Escape to help prevent theft.
