Comprehensive Review: Trailer Connector Adapter Video

Hello Bruno. Yes, the EZ Connector Magnetic 7-Way Trailer Connectors w/ Watertight Seal - Hardwire - Vehicle/Trailer End #319-R7-01 would install onto the 2011 Nissan Frontier. It would replace the current 7 way connector that is already on the back…

There are a number of factors involved when converting a semi 7-way to an RV 7-way. Semis generally use a 7-pin round pin socket, similar to #PK11720. And RV style 7-way uses blades, like #PK12706. We do not offer any pre-made adapters to make this…

You can go from a 16.5 to 16 inch trailer tire and wheel provided that the tire and wheel combos you go with have the capacity for the trailer. The highest capacity 16 inch combo that we have is going to be #TA76FR rated for 4,400 pounds at 110 psi.…

Replacement connector #42145 only has 7 pins because there are only 7 functions in a 7-Way. It is possible the factory connector has some other circuit in it but it would not be used by the 7-Way. Or like you said it could be a dummy pin. Connector…

Either way is correct. It depends on if you want to keep the semi-style 7-Way (if you need to tow that type of trailer) or if you will never be towing a semi-trailer. If you need to keep the 7-Way semi active on the truck, then you would need to make…

There is a difference between a 7-way round and and 7-way rv blade connector. If you take a look at the accompanying photo, which is from our linked article on trailer wiring you can see that the connector on the left has blade-style pins while the…

For the initial settings when you first start the test drive, you should start with the lowest braking setting on the output of the Curt Echo #C51180. This initial setting is the same no matter the weight of your trailer. When you are testing the…

Thanks for the pictures! Since your 2014 Toyota Tacoma has a 7-way connector that is hardwired in you will need to cut the wires from the factory connector and hardwire them to the EZ Connector Magnetic 7-Way Trailer Connectors w/ Watertight Seal -…

The Q Series of Curt fifth wheel hitches can't be used with Sidewinders as the jaws and heads end up getting damaged. Instead, I recommend using the Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Slide Bar Jaw - 16,000 lbs #C16115 with Wedge #RP64FR. The…

There isn't a wedge that can be used with the Q Series Curt fifth wheel hitches. The Q series of hitches cannot be used with Sidewinders as their jaws/head will get permanently damaged. Instead, you'll want to use something like the Curt E16…

If your 7-way harness' locking tab broke you could replace the wiring harness if you wanted to or you can simply snug it up with a zip tie. I suggest that you disconnect the plug from the 7-way, clean the contacts as needed, apply a protective…

The wiring on a semi is not normally the same as a standard RV or Gooseneck trailer. You will need to use a couple different harnesses to get what you are looking for. I recommend the ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness w/ 4-Pole Flat…
