Review on Hopkins 40157 Endurance Wheel Wiring by Nestor Orbita

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Easy to install, works well.

I used to use an old Hopkins Lite-Mate in a Bronco and it worked great so I bought this one. It works just as well - plug in and go. Even matched the old Hopkins screw holes I had previously with custom wiring. The only issue I had was the length was way longer than I needed. My guess is that it needs to be long enough to get from the back to the jack next to the front of the pickup platform if you choose to put it there. Mine is way back in the bed so I had to drill a few holes under the bed in some of the flanges to let the zip ties through so I could roll up the excess and tie it together and then drive to the truck where the connectors are. I also zip tied it where I ran it to the end caps of the truck so it couldn't rub. And for what it's worth, I taped all the exposed wires to protect them.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Some bugs
