Frequently Asked Questions

What type of trailer hitch do I need?

The right trailer hitch depends on your vehicle, its towing capacity, and what you plan to haul. Receiver hitches are common for light to moderate towing. Fifth wheel and gooseneck hitches are typically used for heavier loads like RVs and equipment trailers. We’ll walk you through your options and make sure everything aligns with manufacturer specifications and safe towing limits.
Do you install fifth wheel and gooseneck hitches?

Yes, we do. We install both fifth wheel and gooseneck systems for heavy-duty towing needs. These are commonly used for RVs, livestock trailers, and commercial equipment. Each installation is matched carefully to your truck and intended load.
Do I need trailer brake control wiring?

If your trailer has electric brakes, a brake controller and proper wiring are required for safe stopping. We install brake controllers, 7-way wiring connections, and complete trailer brake systems to help meet Idaho towing requirements and keep you in control on the road.
How long does trailer hitch installation take?

Most standard trailer receiver hitch installations can be completed the same day. Larger or more complex setups, such as fifth wheel or flat towing systems, may take longer. Call 208-377-4730 for current scheduling and availability.
Do your hitches and parts come with warranties?

Most of the products we install include manufacturer warranties. Major Tire & Hitch also stands behind its workmanship, giving you added peace of mind every time you tow.
