  • How Do Rubber Bumpers of Reese 30047 Fifth Wheel Hitch Install
  • The Replacement Rubber Bumper for Reese Fifth Wheel Trailer Hitch, part # 30536, attaches to the head with a screw that gets pressed down through the top of it and then is attached on the underside of the head with a nut.

  • Is there a Class IV or V Hitch Available for a 1989 International S1600
  • We have 2 hitches that might work depending on the specific measurements of your 1989 International. Curt hitches 15901 and 15902 are both weld-on hitches that will fit frames from 18 inches wide to 44 inches wide. The 15901 has a 5 inch drop. The 15902 has a 13-1/2 inch drop. I am not certain if the hitch itself, being 44 inches wide, will interfere with anything else under the vehicle (seeing as it is 10 inches wider than your frame rails). So you will need to check and see if clearance...

  • Availability of Gooseneck/Fifth Wheel Wiring T-Harness for 2002 Ford F350
  • You have the 7-way at the back bumper, as well as one installed in the bed, but you don't have the wiring connecting the two, is that correct? We don't offer the wiring harness only, you'll need to use the # 40167 you referred to. You can simply use the wiring harness, one end will T into the vehicle wiring behind the connector on the rear bumper as shown in the video I've linked you to, and the other would plug into the existing connector in the bed.

  • 7-Way Trailer Connector With 4-Pole for 2000 Ford F250
  • If your truck has the OEM 7-way, it should have a round connector that plugs directly into the back of it. You can unplug the connector at that point, and then plug it into the 7-way of your choice, like the # 74682 you referred to, or the # HM40975 which is being used as the OEM trailer connector on the new Ford trucks. The square connector you speak of is usually a little further down the line, on the frame rail.

  • Your B and W Patriot 5th wheel does offer a range of installation adjustments for its pivot arms that you will find on the linked product page for part # BWRVK3200.

  • Are Helper Springs Available for a 1999 Ford F-350 with a 4 Inch Lift
  • First, we need to find out how your truck is configured. The 4 inch lift kit will not be a problem as long as your truck has not been fitted with aftermarket springs with the lift kit. In this case I would recommend that you go with a set of Super Springs, see link. The Super Springs will be working at all times to prevent body roll and enhance the suspensions ability. If your truck has dual gas tanks, some of the 1999 models still had this option, you will need to go with a shorter set...
