Based on my research it appears the HC3Z-19D520-A part you mentioned is an OEM, slightly higher-rated version of the Reese M5 Series 5th Wheel Hitch # RP30922 that will mount directly to the factory pucks in the bed of your F-450. Before you take your first trip, and before each subsequent trip, Reese recommends lubricating the skid plate surface and pivot pin grease fitting with an automotive type chassis grease or simply by using a lube plate. For this I recommend the Reese # RP83001... view full answer...
The NOCO Genius Mini On-Board Battery Charger # 329-GENM2 that you referenced does not need to be mounted in any specific orientation. You can mount it flat, on it's side, or upside down if needed. view full answer...
As long as your dual wheel and tire weighs less than 60 lbs the Ultra-Fab Folding Spare Tire Carrier # UF15-954730 will work. Only issue I foresee is that most dually style wheels and tires do weigh more than 60 lbs. This is designed to fit a 4 inch square bumper like yours as long as it's a totally boxed frame. view full answer...
You might begin by reviewing the acceptable range of inflation for the tires on your coach as well as examining the existing suspension to ensure it's in good shape.
If that all checks out, I'd recommend going with an air ride suspension from Air Lift. An air ride system like # AL57344 for the rear axle and # AL88240 for the front axle would allow you to adjust the firmness of the ride until its perfect for your needs. An onboard dual-path compressor system like # AL25856 would allow you... view full answer...
I do have options for you but the only gooseneck trailer hitches we have available for a 2001 Ford F-550 Cab and Chassis require fabrication. The reason for this is because cab and chassis models don't come with a bed from the factory so aftermarket gooseneck hitch manufacturers don't have anything to base the hitch on except for the chassis.
I recommend the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch part # BWGNRK1500 which has a storable design for the hitch ball when not in use... view full answer...
We do offer suspension enhancements for a Thor Motorhome on Ford Chassis. The SuperSprings Custom Suspension Stabilizer and Sway Control Kit part # SSA25 are what I recommend. They will fit dually cutaway models, both the E-450 (Class C) and F-450 (Super Class-C Diesel). They provide up to 3,400 lbs of support which will take some strain off the factory leaf springs. This should then give you more ground clearance.
Please note, if you are overloading and leaf springs are bent because of... view full answer...
Yes, we have gooseneck balls that fit the OEM rail kit of your 2017 Ford F-450 like the B and W kit part # BWGNXA2061 that I recommend as it has a handle that makes it easier to release the ball and remove it as well. view full answer...
For your 2017 Ford F-450, the Air Lift options as you pointed out are not compatible with a 5th wheel or gooseneck hitch. The manufacturer states that none of their current options for your vehicle will work with the 5th wheel hitch installed although they can work with other vehicle models.
My recommendation is to instead go with the Timbren Suspension Enhancement System - Rear Axle # TFRSDE. These aeon rubber springs absorb shock and increase in support as the load increases to give... view full answer...
For your Class C motorhome built on the Ford E-450 chassis I recommend the following parts:
For a rear anti-sway bar you will need the Roadmaster # RM-1139-147. If you also want a front sway bar you can use part # RM-1139-176.
All of the needed mounting hardware for these products are included. I have attached the installation instructions that you can also look through. view full answer...
The Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label Air Helper Springs part # F95FV are what I recommend for a 2020 Ford F-450 Super Duty 4WD. These air bags are the best option for this vehicle and offer the most support, up to 7,500 lbs.
In order to control them from the cab, you'll want to use the Air Command II Compressor System part # F2097. view full answer...
We do have 2 weight distribution systems that will fit a 2-1/2 inch trailer hitch receiver like the one on your 2009 Ford F-450. Both are rated for 1,000 to 1,700 pounds tongue weight. When calculating tongue weight you also want to include the weight of anything loaded behind the rear axle of the tow vehicle.
Trailer tongue weight is typically 10 to 15 percent of the gross trailer weight. It seems that your trailer has a higher tongue weight percentage, about 16 percent. With your bike... view full answer...
The gooseneck hitch we offer for your 2019 Ford F-450 that has the highest towing capacity is the Draw Tite part # 9468-94 which has a capacity of 30k. The ball is easily removable too by pulling the pin up on the top of the ball and then turning it 90 degrees to release the mechanism and then you'll be able to pull the ball out of the assembly easily.
Be sure to check the owners manual of your truck to determine the overall towing capacity for your truck and be sure not to exceed that... view full answer...
I would be happy to recommend a suspension enhancement option for your 14000lb GVWR 5th wheel trailer.
Starting with the SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs w/ Line Relocation Bracket # TSS-106-40 which act as shock absorbers taking the brunt of bumps and bouncing on rough roads, and offer 500lbs of support when 50% compressed to prolong the life of your leaf springs and suspension components. This option is great for being maintenance free, but will only fit trails with 3-leaf leaf springs,... view full answer...
For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best selling brake controller because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup. This is a proportional brake controller that senses the amount of braking the tow vehicle is applying and applies a proportionate amount to the trailer brakes.
To install this controller all you would need is the correct install harness for your 2015 Ford F-450. For that you would need part # 3034-P. view full answer...
On your 2007 Pilgrim 40 foot 5th wheel trailer, I recommend using the Ultra-Fab Deluxe Electric Landing Gear Set - 38" Lift - 12,000 lbs # UF17-943010. This landing gear will allow you to adjust independently for easy and quick leveling. The leg will travel 1 inch every 15 seconds and has drop legs for even faster compatibility. I've attached a diagram for you to see the connection points based on the weld stops so you can determine if it will bolt right in or if modifications to your... view full answer...
Yes, the Pewag All Square Snow Tire Chains with Cam Tighteners for Wide-Base and Dual Tires # PWE3251SC that you referenced will fit your tire size. You will need to order 3 sets of these chains in order to be able have them installed on every tire. view full answer...
For your 2012 Ford F-450 with an OEM hitch the correct Torklift Tie Downs are the part numbers # TLF2016 for the front and part # TLF3006 for the rear. As long as you do not have any running boards or tube steps these would be the correct parts needed. view full answer...
The Gen-Y Hitch Shock Absorbing 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box part # GY58GR is not yet approved by Lippert but there should still be no issues in using it as it attaches to the same pre-drilled holes as the factory pin box. The warranty wouldn't be able to be void by simply installing one either.
If you're looking for added peace of mind you can use the Reese Goose Box 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Air Ride Coupler Adapter part # RP85FR which is currently approved by Lippert. view full answer...
There are several pin boxes that are 12 inches wide. But we need several more dimensions to determine what pin a Reese Goose Box would fit since that's such a common dimension. I attached a link to an article that covers how to measure a pin box to determine which model it is. Also there is typically a sticker or plate on the pin box that has the model brand and number as well which would be all we would need. view full answer...
The Reese Goose Box part # RP85FR is not going to give you a significantly different height from the pin box you have now so just it alone would not give you the clearance you'd need. Best option would be to lift the suspension of the trailer.
You can do this by moving the axles from being above the leaf springs to below the leaf springs.
The diameter of your trailer axle will determine the size of the parts that you will need to order. If your axle is 3 inches diameter, the Dexter Trailer... view full answer...
