    Default Plate blocked

    Here in Ca you would have an issue with the hitch blocking the license plate. I have also heard, but never got a real answer about warranty issues on the F3 and a hitch.

    Default Very nice..!!

    nice setup. Looks like you have to remove the rear axle but is well made and should do the trick well. Cool trailer... can't beat the price either...

    I used Kuryakyn part #7671 wiring and relay wiring harness and also Kuryakyn part #7675 5 to 4 wire converter and also purchased at wal mart Hopkins 6 pole vehicle connector part # 48400 witch I needed because I ran 2 other hot lines to the trailer one for interior lights in to the trailer . The other hot wire for extra lights on the trailer that I can turn on and off with a switch

    the hitch can be unbolted with 4 bolts the side plates stay attached to the frame that way you can remove the hitch when not in use . They can not see the plate when you are pulling a trailer so if you remove when not pulling trailer you should be alright

    Ordered yesterday! How did you wire that into your wiring harness? Did you use an isolator?

    Got mine this week but not yet installed. I called Canada and inquired on wiring harness and they have one for the F3s as an accessory item for $69 US. Only one problem, if you have the 2015 Freedom trailer, their harness won't plug in as it is a "4 flat" male plug. Easy fix.
