i'm looking at moving soon and am going to need to tow a uhaul ... probably going to the be the biggest one they've got 6x14 i think ... their website advises a class II or better ... what should i buy and from where? i suppose i'll also need a solution for the easiest way to wire the lighting connections ... little help would be appreciated since i've never done this before ... thanks!

 

Ebay is good if you have the time. Got mine for like $65.

 

Class III, and if the trailer only has a 4 blade connector (no brakes), look under your bumper, you'll probably find the one that's already part of the harness (mine did).

 

well, lol, the dealer! haha. yeah, i know... lame. go to Wally World or Target, they have that stuff too!

EDIT: or any car store... Napa, Kragen, Pep Boys, etc...

 

yah, buy one from ebay...ya can find em for decently cheap and easy to install....if ya had the time, you just make your own like i did lol, one things for sure....i havent found anything yet that it couldnt handle lol

 

For that size trailer... spend the money and get a decent class 3 hitch... like HemiLoneStar said, you probably have the wiring for it right there. And everybody sells them.

 

The Class III will most likely handle anything you want to haul in the future (within reason). One of the best things I have added to my truck.

 

personally id go with a class IV because for the little extra cash u spend to upgrade that a bigger hitch its worth it, this way u know u can always haul whatever u want. Id go to a truck accesory shop and they can help you out the best

 

thanks for all the help guys ... any brands to stay away from or any reccomendations? i'll check on the wiring but for some reason i don't think it's there ... i have a base 2003 quad cab with the 4.7 ... i'll probably go with the class III ... is it as simple as it looks?? cuz all i see are a few bolts to secure and that's it ...

 

ok just got under there ... looks like there is a 4 blade connecter under there ... what happens if the trailer has a hookup for brakes??? what else will i need?
