Start Your BuildFAQs
Do I need an electric brake controller?
If your trailer/caravan has electric brakes, you’ll need a controller. We supply and install unit + loom and set it up during handover.
What plug type should I use?
Most light trailers use 7-pin. Caravans often use 12-pin plus an Anderson plug for charging. We’ll wire to your needs.
Is X-Bar available for my 4x4?
Many popular models are covered. Use the X-Bar vehicle finder (link in the header) and we’ll confirm fitment and any accessories needed.
Can you supply weight distribution & sway control?
Yes — we supply and fit weight distribution hitches and sway control to improve stability with caravans and large trailers.
