In order to carry your generator on the back of your 5th wheel, you will need a hitch so you can attach a cargo carrier. Assuming the ramp on your Palomino will allow the hitch, you can easily add one, the Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs # 13703.
You simply need to measure the frame to make sure it is between 22 and 77 inches wide outside-to-outside in order to install this hitch, which can then be bolted or welded on.
The hitch has a 350 lb tongue weight capacity, which... view full answer...
This Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2", # C13195, is a confirmed fit for your 2017 Kia Sorento and has a 750 lb tongue weight. This trailer hitch receiver does have an advantage over the Draw-Tite option based on that tongue weight rating. However the Curt hitch does recommend a support strap, # 18050, that many people don't like. Based on the weight ratings on the carriers, you wouldn't lose anything going with the Draw-Tite Hitch Receiver, # 75908, which is... view full answer...
I may have a solution for you to mount the Cargobuckle G3 Retractable Ratchet Straps # IMF18800-86 on those carts, but we don't have anything that looks like the brackets you've got that would be a cost effective solution for you. Instead, you can use something like the CargoSmart D-Ring Tie-Down Anchor - Bolt On - 1/4" x 2" - 400 lbs # 348826, you'll just need to pick the correct sized bracket based off of the diameter of the bolts.

I would use the Buyers Products # 337B40MP forged D-rings with brackets in the four locations where they are needed. You could install into metal deck framing, or into typical 2-by lumber materail which itself has been secured to the fram of the truck. Then you could potentially use 4 Cargo Buckle # IMF14069 tie down straps rated for 2200 pounds each. Not only would these hold a camper on the flat bed, but when the camper is out, these parts will help secure other loads. You will need... view full answer...
For a round bar set of CargoBuckle Ladder Rack Straps you'd instead want the part # IMF18821 since the mounts of this are designed to fit bars that are 1-1/4", 1-3/4" or 2" in diameter.
The part # IMF18816 that you referenced is not designed for attaching to a round bar. view full answer...
The G3, # IMF103745, has a zinc plated spring whereas the G2 # IMF106877 has a stainless steel spring. And they changed the handle color. But that is about it. Everything else is the same. view full answer...
The CargoBuckle G3 Retractable Ratchet Tie-Down Strap # IMF18804 would work beautifully in place of regular tie-down rings in your enclosed trailer. And since the strap retracts into the housing, you won't have to keep track of ratchet straps.
This particular one is rated for 1,167 pounds working load limit and 3,500 pounds break strength. The strap is 2 inches wide and 6 feet long. I have included a link to a video review of this strap to the right. view full answer...
We can help you select a folding 2-inch hitch-mounted cargo carrier for use on your 2006 Ford Van.
The linked page will show you all such carriers.
For a carrier that provides a good match to your hitch you'll want to check the tongue weight (TW) rating of the hitch on the van. This should be noted on it's safety/warning sticker. The total combined weight of the carrier itself plus your loaded cargo cannot exceed the TW limit of the hitch.
For a large heavy-duty carrier I suggest the... view full answer...
The fully retracted distance between the hooks of the CargoBuckle Mini G3 Retractable Ratchet Straps # IMF111640 that you referenced is 17-1/2 inches. I confirmed this with CargoBuckle.

No, the Thule Xsporter Pro and TracONE Ladder Rack Adapter Kit # THXK4B does not hold down a 2x4. The Thule Xsporter Pro and TracONE Ladder Rack Adapter Kit # THXK4B adapts the Thule Xsporter Pro Adjustable Height Truck Bed Ladder Rack # TH500XTB or the Thule TracRac TracONE Truck Bed Ladder Rack - Fixed Mount # TH27000XTB for use on a Toyota Tacoma factory bed rail system (2016-current).

I spoke to a tech over at Buyers Products, and the # 3375480005 is designed to be used with tubing that is at least 1 1/2 inches. The closest option we will have to attach to a 1 inch tube will be the CargoBuckle # IMF18816. This will attach to a 1 1/4 inch tube, but it looks like we currently do not have one that will attach to a 1 inch tube, unfortunately. view full answer...
The CargoBuckle G3 Retractable Ratchet Tie-Down Strap - Flush Mount part # IMF18804 uses the CargoBuckle G3 Retractable Ratchet Tie-Down Straps - Bolt On part # IMF18800 which is sold separately but not individually. view full answer...
You are correct that your 2011 Toyota Camry will have a hitch with a 1-1/4" receiver such as the Class II Draw-Tite # 36416, as that is the only size hitch made for this car. Since you are looking to pull a small trailer with this car you will need wiring, the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118482, to power your trailer lights. This hitch also requires Drawbar for 1-1/4" Hitch # 36071 and 1-7/8" Hitch Ball # 19256.
The reason you want that size hitch ball is because the best option we... view full answer...
The best mounting location of Tie Down Strap part # IMF18800 will really depend on what you are carrying. Generally speaking, mounting one tie down at each corner of the bed would allow for the most flexibility. Each strap can safely handle a load of 1167 lbs, or 2334 lbs per pair. view full answer...
Over tightening straps that secure a bike by the handlebars can blow out the fork seals. So I would not recommend the use of a strap that automatically tightens as you will end up with the problem you experienced.
The CargoBuckle G3 Retractable Ratchet Tie-Down Straps # IMF18800 can self retract, but they do not self tighten. If these are the straps you used and the fork seals blew out it would be from either over tightening them on the initial install or weak seals. view full answer...
CargoBuckle G3 Ratchet Strap set # IMF18800 has straps that measure 6-feet at maximum extension but they can be used at any fraction of that length since they retract fully as shown in the linked photo. Each strap has a working load limit (WLL) of 1167-lbs. If this is more length than you really need you could instead use G2 Transom tie-down kit # IMF08893; these straps are 43-inches long. These and all other transom straps appear on the page I linked for you. Various lengths and WLLs are... view full answer...
Our contact at CargoBuckle said the minimum length of the Mini G3 Retractable Ratchet Straps # IMF103745-87 is 7 inches in length. I attached a picture of what it looks like fully retracted as well. You can see no strap hangs out of the assembly. view full answer...
I have a solution for you. Unfortunately, the 35-inch length/width of your refrigerator will not be able to fit on the 32x48 Reese Solo Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 400 lbs # PS1040100.
With that being said, a great solution for transporting your refrigerator is the Detail K2 Mighty Multi Utility Trailer - 6' Long - 1,295 lbs # K2MMT4X6. The K2 trailer has a bed dimension of 72" long x 48" wide x 7-1/2" tall and can hold up to 1,295 pounds. If you decide to go this route, you... view full answer...
I may have a solution for you, but according to my contact at Yakima the Spare Tire Carrier # Y07076 is not compatible with the Basketcase and there is not a tire carrier that will fit on the smaller bars. With that said, you could just use some ratchet straps like the CargoBuckle Mini G3 Retractable Ratchet Straps - 1" x 6' - 466 lbs - Qty 2 # IMF111640 to secure your spare tire. These ratchet straps will provide a bit more secure solution than the cargo net that was included with the... view full answer...
Thanks for all those measurements! There is a trailer hitch that will work great for your travel trailer, though the measurement you want to go with is from outside to outside, which you said was 70-1/2 inches. That means the correct hitch is the Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs, 22" to 72" Wide # 13703.
This is a Class III hitch with a 2" receiver and 350 lb tongue weight capacity so you will be able to carry a good deal of cargo with it. For a cargo carrier on the rear... view full answer...
