Does anyone know what the Draw is for these bars. I have this one and another brand and want to have them both wired to trailer harness.

It will some where in the "milla amp" "mA" range sometimes the specs on their web sight give you the draw

I order the bars and is the time that I haven't installed, due to I have no information on a seller. I do not have the kit. Seller send me the bars with no instructions or nothing. How ever to answer your question I believe so. Good luck

Hi Laura,If I remember correctly you just use a screwdriver to tighten the bars but I found one of my dogs is smarter than I gave him credit for and he kept using his head to move the bar over and then get in the front seat. I solved the issue by taking black electrical tape and taping around the bar to make sure he could no longer move it.I hope this helped!!

Yes you just wire it in with the provided harness but most likely you will have to run a wire back to the trailer hookup

I used them on my 4 ft wide utility trailer. I used the left bases on the right side and vice versa. Instead of the uprights curving into the trailer, it curved to the outside. Providing a cross bar wider than the 4 ft with of the trailer bed. I know can place more on the cross bars

What are you putting your light on? With mine I tied straight into the existing wire harness for my atv headlights. If I were gonna run a new wire and a switch I would run 12 gauge wire.

On my pick up there was a wire plug under the back of the bed that I plugged a trailer wire adaptor into , I would ask your dealer for the wire adaptor and location on the truck. On mine it is not a t adaptor just a plug the adaptor plugged into..

So long as your new bars are not radically thick or thin there shouldnt be problem. Might be a good idea to get new cables and cable sheaths too, and make sure you know what your doing... some beginner bike modders get this part muddled and then inevitably end up at their bike shop trying to get help.

No, I use the same ones I used with my other tow bar. You might be able to buy a kit I've seen with cables, electrical hookups and covers. Ordering the tow bar only gets you the bar and crosspiece as shown in the photo. It also has the square plates that you bolt to your arms.

I believe it is the amount of trailer tongue weight. I have a 30' camper that has a GVW of 10000 lbs. I needed a 1000-1200 lb. trunnion bar. I have no trailer sway at all, great hitch.

Correct. There must be a wire not connected or miswired in the carrier. Easy to mix these up if it makes you feel better. I had an electrician help me install the wiring harness and it works great, running lights and all. Good luck!

Hi, thanks for the question. Unfortunately I returned these bars because my 2012 Durango had factory cross bars that I was unaware of when I initially purchased these. Sorry I'm not able to help. The company I ordered from were very helpful and prompt. They would probably be able to assist you.

Also...Look for the video that shows you how to route the wiring to the boat trailer through the access hole where the connectors are. Big help and a really clean routing job. Don't forget the fuse installation in the fuse box in the engine compartment.

I mounted them on my electric rear jacks that swing down from the corners. It mounts fine but the performance is poor. The owner of Hanscom told me that I would get much better performance if I installed the scissor jacks instead. Not a viable option if you ask me. Personally on my next trailer I'll go back to the JT's Strong Arm Jacks, which have more connection points and smaller spans which means less flexing.

Mine did NOT match a "standard trailer" wiring diagram either. According to the manufacture this is the "RV" model and their color code diagram is on the www.hopkinstowingsolutions.com web site, under support. For me the following worked:Cable >>> Trailer------ ------------White --> White(Trailer Ground), Red --> Yellow(Trailer Left Turn & Brake), Brown --> Green(Trailer Right Turn & Brake), Green --> Brown(Trailer tail lights)
