How you wire it really depends on what the trailer has for lights. A using the factory lights on a Sankey is going to require different wiring than the standard type trailer lights.

That looks plenty stout (for towing, maybe not hard core recovery) and for 1/3 the cost the D-90 guys are paying for essentially the same thing. . .

Why buy that, when you can have a real tow reciever made by Ike? Sure it costs less, but I'm sure it is mass produced, and doesn't offer the same costomer service and fine craftmanship.
Bad gas mileage gets you to some of the greatest places on earth.

And it is just plain better. Why scrimp when you plan to tow?

I know your question is rhetorical and so is my answer: it is a matter of balancing perceptions of risk. That is, the risk of spending more money than a person wants to is greater than than the perceived risk of a coupling failing and an errant wheeled object careering into oncoming traffic and killing others who are innocently going about their business.

I dunno guys, it looks like a good part to me. It was designed and tested as a tow hitch after all! To each his own.
Whats probably more important is the condition of your rear crossmember, and how you attach the hitch to the crossmember.

On the other hand if you are into errant wheeled objects careering into oncoming traffic I think the implication is to spend less . . .Originally Posted by disco2hse

When using a 4 pin trailer wiring adapter do you need to take the wire for the trailer's brake lights all the way to the brake light switch on a Series IIA that was originally positive ground?
