  • What Replacement Straps will Work with My Tesla Bike Rack Which is the Same as the Yakima FullTilt 4
  • Hello Gilberto, Thank you for the links, they were most helpful. The Tesla bike rack that you have is identical to the Yakima FullTilt 4. Yes, the Replacement ZipStrip Straps for Yakima Standard Bike Rack Cradles - Qty 2 # Y8890297 are the correct strap replacement. What kind of bike do you have? Do you have a trail near by you like to ride? We have the Katy Trail here in Missouri, and it is always loaded with bikes!

  • How to Determine Correct Hub For Harbor Freight Trailer For 13 Inch Wheel
  • Hello Andrei, There isn't an axle we can offer as there aren't any that small we have, but you may be able to get a different hub. I couldn't find the bearing sizes of that axle to find a new hub so you'll have to do a bit of measuring. For that you will need to take apart your current hub assembly and look at the bearings themselves; wipe away the grease and you should be able to see the part number stamped directly on them. If you are unable to find them, you need to use a digital caliper...

  • Does Stealth Hitch for 2026 Tesla Model 3 Have Capacity for Motorcycle Carrier
  • Hey Eric, the Stealth hitch part # 391TES317T that you referenced does have the tongue weight capacity for a dirt bike and motorcycle carrier as it has a 350 lb tongue weight capacity like you noted but you are only as strong as the weakest component in a towing setup so if your vehicle only a 160 lb tongue weight capacity that would be the overall capacity. What dirt bike do you have?

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver Needed For A 2024 Tesla Model 3
  • Hi Yves, There likely was a change between those model years that prevents the Curt hitch from fitting, but it could just also be that Curt hasn't been able to physically test the fit yet on that year and model. We unfortunately haven't either so the only option we can currently recommend is the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # 391TES317. This would come with removable receiver tube that you could mount your bike rack to. The receiver tube has a 2" opening, which the most common...

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver Fit For 2024 Tesla Model 3
  • Hey Josh, I can get your 2024 Tesla Model 3 set up with a hitch, though the # e33ZR you asked about hasn't been confirmed as a fit for the '24 Tesla 3, so we'll need to go a different route. Reason for that is the '24 Model 3 got a bit of a redesign and it's just now getting into people's hands to see what hitches will fit. So I went ahead and checked with our manufacturers to see what we could do for you, and found out that Stealth Hitches does have fits for the 2024 Model 3. They actually...

  • Can 2020 Tesla Model 3 Trailer Hitch Hold Motorcycle Rack
  • Hey Alfred! What kind of motorcycle do you have? At 500 lbs there won't be a hitch that can handle holding your motorcycle on the rear of your Model 3. The highest tongue weight capacity is on the Stealth Hitch # 391TES317T which is maxed at 350 lbs. Even if the hitch could handle the weight of your motorcycle and carrier I doubt the vehicle tongue weight is rated that high. I'm sorry to say the only option is to install a hitch and wiring so you can tow a small trailer. The Stealth Hitch...

  • Will The Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver 391TES317 Carry The RockyMounts GuideRail RKY24RR?
  • Hi Brian! The Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # 391TES317 is the premium option for your 2022 Tesla Model 3 and would work very well for you. It has plenty of capacity to carry the RockyMounts GuideRail Bike Rack for 3 Bikes # RKY24RR all loaded up and the removeable receiver will make it invisible when not in use. It is the most expensive option though. If you wanted something a bit less expensive, you could also go with the Oris Trailer Hitch with Detachable Hitch...

  • Tesla Model 3 Hitch Ground Clearance Inside Top of Receiver Measurement
  • Hi Jason, I completely understand why you’re asking because the ground clearance on a Model 3 is already pretty minimal, so even a small difference in receiver height can matter when you’re pulling into a steep driveway or going over a ramp. For the Oris hitch part # RS49VR, it is designed as a stealth style hitch that mounts up higher behind the fascia to help preserve as much factory ground clearance as possible. The only time you will lose an estimated 3" of ground clearance is when...

  • What Hitch will Give My 2020 Tesla Model 3 the Most Ground Clearance?
  • Hello Paul, Happy to recommend the hitch that will give your 2020 Tesla Model 3 the most ground clearance. Both the etrailer # e33ZR and the Curt # C45FR have a measurement of 9-1/2" from the ground to the inside top of the receiver. The winner in terms of maximum clearance is the EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # EH84GR. This hitch provides an additional 1/2" of clearance, measuring 10" from the ground to the inside top of the receiver. If you’re planning...

  • Hello Michael, thanks for reaching out. We do sell a few of the replacement rubber strips for aftermarket roof racks like Rhino Rack # RRM626 and Yakima # 8880634.

  • Comparing Curt and etrailer Hitches for a 2019 Tesla Model 3
  • Hey Allen, thanks for reaching out! The Curt # C45FR and etrailer # e33ZR have the same design so the only difference is the finish. I really like the etrailer one, and not just because it has our name on it. I've installed/used a few of them on my personal vehicles and the finish holds up really well - we've found that the matte black finish is a little more durable than the classic glossy black on the other hitches. It isn't a night and day difference, but I'll take anything I can get,...

  • Bike Rack Recommendation for Carbon Fiber Bike Frame
  • Hey Raymond, thanks for reaching out! Some bike rack manufacturers say that you can use an adapter bar like part # TH982XT to carry a carbon fiber bike on a hanging-style rack because the bike isn't technically sitting on the arms, but I personally think it's better to go with a rack that doesn't make any contact with the frame so you don't have to be worried about the quality of your bike being ruined. I really like the Thule Helium Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # TH44VR for carbon fiber bikes...

  • Comparing Stealth Hitch and EcoHitch Stealth for 2023 Tesla Model 3
  • The EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver # EH84GR and Stealth Hitches # 391TES317 are similar but there are a few differences. Both have a completely hidden design with a removable receiver. However, the EcoHitch is ready to tow without purchasing any additional parts. The receiver that comes with the Stealth Hitch is only rated for accessories. If you want to use the Stealth Hitch for towing the towing kit # 391CONVB7 would be required. This also limits you since you have to use their...
