  • Looking For Class 3 Hitch With 2" Receiver For 2024 Tesla Model Y
  • Hello David, thanks for getting in touch. For your 2024 Tesla Model Y I recommend the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH79QR. This has a 2" receiver and a 350 lb tongue weight capacity, so more than enough for your bike rack and two e-bikes. To answer your other question, vertical load and tongue weight are the same thing in this application. We offer installation services here at our shop in Wentzville Missouri. If this is too far for you, we may have a qualified installer in...

  • 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...

  • What is the Tongue Weight of the Draw-Tite # 76143 on My 2018 Model X?
  • When we have listed tongue weights, the tongue weight rating is the weight that a hitch can handle vertically pressing down on the receiver. This is the vertical weight/accessory rate rating you are asking for. The maximum gross trailer weight, on the other hand, is the horizontal weight of anything that is attached to the hitch (pulled from behind). Since the tongue weight on the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76143 is 750 pounds, it will be able to accommodate a 375-pound...

  • 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...

  • Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver Towing Capacity of 2018 Tesla Model X
  • It is possible to upgrade the hitch on your 2018 Tesla Model X with the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit part # 76143 which rated for 5,000 lbs gross towing weight however you are only as strong as your weakest component and in this case that would be the vehicle itself. I took a look at the online owner's manual for the 2018 Tesla Model X and according to Tesla the loaded weight of a trailer towed by the model X with 245/45R19 or 275/45R20 tires should never exceed...

  • Does Lets Go Aero V-Lectric VFR Bike Rack Have Light and License Plate Kit
  • Hello again Kalani; the Lets Go Aero V-Lectric VFR Bike Rack # LGA25VR does not have a specific light and license plate kit. However, the same Curt # C53201 would work well with this bike rack. You can actually see the lights on the bike rack in the picture below from one of our customers. For a license plate bracket you could use the Yakima PlateMate License Plate Holder # Y02713 which can easily be attached with the included straps.

  • What is Weight of EcoHitch for 2018 Tesla Model 3 and Access Hole Cover to Preserver Aerodynamics
  • The weight of the EcoHitch part # EH84GR which fits your 2018 Tesla Model 3 is 45 lbs. When not in use you could use the access hole cover part # 306-XA2002 which would totally cover up the hole and would give you same aerodynamics as before the hitch was installed.

  • Correct Hub Setting for Yakima FullBack on 2021 Tesla Model 3
  • Sure can! You'll want to set the hub to 3 when installing the Yakima FullBack 3 Bike Rack # Y02633 on your 2021 Tesla Model 3. You'll also want to adjust the bike rack so that the base pad is 1" above the bumper for proper fitment. The top hooks will need to be installed in anchor mode as well. You can see how this is installed in the instructions or by looking at the attached video I shot on a 2020 Audi Q7. If you jump to the 3:24 minute mar of the video you'll see me explain how to change...

  • Hey Fabian, I checked with EcoHitch just now and they verified that their hitch part # EH36SR that you referenced is a confirmed fit for your 2026 Tesla Model S Plaid model.

  • Could Inno Ridge Rooftop Cargo Box Fit 2021 Tesla Model Y with OEM Roof Rack
  • The Inno Ridge Rooftop Cargo Box # INBRA220R-BK will fit the OEM roof rack of your 2021 Tesla Model Y as long as the crossbars are between 20 and 30 inches apart. It looks like your spread is 35 inches though so a different box would be ideal like the # TH6356B would be what you'd want.

  • Installation of Stealth hitch on 2024 Tesla Model 3
  • Hi Denys; you must be referring to the factory reinforcement beam or the base plates. Removing these won't hurt anything and isn't uncommon for a hitch with this design. The instructions for the # 391TES317 actually allow for the reinstallation of the reinforcement beam after the hitch is attached. The base plates must be discarded if you do this but they're replaced by the brackets for the hitch. When the reinforcement beam is discarded the hitch takes its place.

  • 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...

  • Will Hopkins Adapter 7 Pole to 4 Pole Work on 2024 Tesla Model Y
  • Hey Kathy! As long as you have a 7-way already on your 2024 Model Y you can use the Adapter 7 Pole to 4 Pole with Tester and Cover # 47345. This is a universal part that will allow you to connect a 4-way for trailer lights to the 7-way on your vehicle. Will you be using this to tow a trailer like the Yakima Rack and Roll # Y08107?

  • Best Value Trailer Hitch for 2019 Tesla Model 3 to Carry Bike Rack
  • The Curt 2-inch trailer hitch part # C45FR is a fit for your 2019 Tesla Model 3 and is by far the best value hitch option out there. It's a new fit at this time (April 2020) so we don't have much feedback on it or an install video. I did attach an install instructions link that is very detailed and will walk you through the process of the install as well. You will have to cut a small hole in the lower fascia panel for the hitch opening to fit through which I attached a picture of.

  • What Is A Good Wiring Harness For A 2019 Tesla Model 3
  • Hey Bjorn, We do have a wiring harness for that 2019 Model 3. Along with that hitch, # EH84GR, I recommend the wiring harness # 119250KIT. This is going to give you a 4 flat connection at the rear of the vehicle, and better yet it is a plug and play installation so it does not require any splicing! What are you looking to tow with your Tesla?
