Expert Answers about Freightliner


  • Recommended Anti-Sway Bar For 2002 Tiffin Allegro Bus on Freightliner XC Chassis
  • I do have a rear anti-sway bar option for you, but at this time we do not have any front sway bar or steering stabilizers for your 2002 Tiffin Allegro Bus on a Dec 2001 Freightliner XC Chassis. As long as your Freightliner XC Chassis has air suspension I recommend the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1209-115 which will increase the stability of your Bus by mounting to the rear axle and frame to prevent body roll, which will reduce the effort required to keep your vehicle going straight...

  • 2016 Newmar Ventana Trailer Brake Controller For Existing 7-Way Trailer Connector
  • For your 2016 Newmar Ventana with the Freightliner XC chassis, the Prodigy P3 # 90195 you asked from is an excellent choice with easy to use features and no codes to decipher. Because you have the 7-way if it came from the factory you would simply use the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter for Electric Brake Controllers # 3027-P.

  • How Would Brake Controller Install in 2016 Seneca 37TS Motorhome
  • I looked and was not able to find any trailer wiring or brake controller wiring for your 2016 Seneca 37ts motorhome which is built on a Freightliner M2 chassis. You will need to start with a 4-way. For that you would want the # C59496. This will be the base of the wiring setup to control the lighting of the trailer you plan to tow. From there you would need to convert the 4-way to a 7-way so that you can install the brake controller. For that you will want the Brake Controller Install...

  • How To Tow a Trailer with Brakes Using a 1999 Coachmen Sportscoach
  • In order to tow a trailer with brakes using your 1999 Coachmen Sportscoach on a Freightliner XC Chassis you will first need to convert the 4-way you have into a 7-way using the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller part # ETBC7 along with the extra wire with part # 10-2-1. These two parts will give you all that you need to correctly install the 7-way along with a brake controller of your choice. For a brake controller I recommend using the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer...

  • RV Trailer Hitch And Weight Distribution For 2002 Fleetwood Discovery Motorhome
  • If the frame on your 2002 Fleetwood is between 18 and 51-inches I recommend the Curt hitch, part # C13702. This has a 5,000-lb towing capacity but that is increased to 6,000-lbs with a weight distribution hitch. You may also want to check the towing capacity for your Fleetwood. A weight distribution system I recommend is the Fastway e2, part # FA92-00-0800. This has an 800-lb capacity If your frame is wider, the trailer hitches we offer like part # 13703 will fit trailers from 22 to...

  • Recommended Trailer Brake Controller for a 2023 Newmar SuperStar
  • I recommend using the Curt Echo Wireless Brake Controller part # C51180 on a 2023 Newmar SuperStar. The reason for this is because it's a wireless controller which means there is no running wires from the front to the rear. There is no brake controller port on this motorhome so in order to avoid a bunch of wire splicing and running wires, I highly recommend a wireless brake controller, the Curt Echo.

  • Parts Needed To Add 7-way Connector To A 1999 Freightliner FS65 Bus/Skoolie
  • I would be happy to help! First you will need to install a 4-way connector. Since there is not a custom fit option for your 1999 Freightliner FS65 bus you will need a universal option like the 4-Pole Trailer Connector and Installation Kit # C59496 which will splice into your factory wiring with the included quick splices. You will need to identify the passenger side turn signal/stop light, driver side turn signal/stop light, and your tail light wires using the included circuit tester. Since...

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2019 Freightliner Sprinter 1500
  • I do have a solution, but there are no custom fit hitches for the 2019 Freightliner Sprinter 1500. I recommend the Curt Class 5 Universal Hitch # C47CR. This fits frames from 18-44" and has a 2" receiver. It is a weld-on hitch so you will need to take it to a certified welder for installation.

  • Backup Alert for a 2010 Freightliner Sprinter 2500
  • I did a little research and your 2010 Frieghtliner Sprinter 2500 uses a 7506 reverse light bulb. We do not have a bulb replacement with backup alert for the 7506 bulb but I do have a solution for you. Take a look at Surface Mount Back-up Alarm # BK97DB. You can mount this guy under the vehicle and wire it into a reverse light circuit. It will be louder at 97 decibels and more effective compared to the replacement bulb type. I have included a link to a video showing an installation for you.

  • Will Curt Echo Wireless C51180 Work In RV With Functional 7-way Connector?
  • Since your Diesel Pusher RV has a full Functional 7-way connector the Curt Echo Wireless Trailer Brake Controller # C51180 will work perfectly given that your trailer does not have more than 2 braking axles. The great part about the # C51180 is it is removable and works in any vehicle with a functioning 7-way connector, so you can use it in multiple vehicles if needed. I included a video of the # C51180 for you to take a look at.

  • How To Tow Trailer W/ 7-way Blade Connector With 2013 Freightliner 122SD W/ 7-pin Round Connector
  • I would be happy to help you make a wiring adapter to allow you to connect your 2013 Freightliner 122SD with a 7 pin round connector to your 2020 EZ4 triple axle trailer. First you will need a female 7-pin round # PK11720 and female 7-way blade # PK12-707E. Since the 7-pin round has separate brake and turn signals but a 7-way blade has combined you will need the the 3-wire to 2-wire converter # HM48847 like you mentioned. This will get connected to 7-way connector as follows: Red wire...

  • Determining if Solera Slide-Topper Can be Installed on Slide-Out with Electric Awning
  • It sounds like you are asking if a Solera Slide-Topper like the 12.5' # LCV000177334 that you were looking at can be installed on your Grand Design trailer that features an electric awning already in place. Just let me know if that is not the case. There are a few possible styles and mounting positions of electric awnings that are used on slide-outs so it will really just be a matter of comparing where your awning is attached to the mounting location of our Slide-Toppers. I have attached...

  • Brake Controller Recommendation for 2001.5 Fleetwood Discovery
  • Based on the research I did on the 2001.5 Fleetwood Discovery RV, they are wired with a 7-Way connection at the rear of the RV. When towing a trailer equipped with electric brakes, you can use an electric brake controller, like the Tekonsha Prodigy P2, # 90885. I spoke with my contact at Fleetwood, and he stated that the blue wire for electric brakes is attached to circuit 020 under the hood of the RV. If your RV does not have this wire, you can run your own 10 gauge wire from a brake...

  • Recommendation to Add Stability to Front of 2018 Freightliner M2 106 Chassis with 10K Axles
  • I do have a great option for you but we do not have a standard front sway bar available for your Freightliner M2 chassis with the 10,000 pound front axle. What you can use at the front that will still really help with keeping the RV in line and minimizing wander is the Roadmaster TruTrac # RM-TRAC-FM2. This Trac Rod essentially braces the axle to prevent jarring and will control any of that excessive side play during travel. It will install using existing holes in the chassis' frame so...

The 335DL-200NE you were looking at has actually been discontinued by the manufacturer. To install the # 335DL-100 in your truck you will need the Tuson Heavy Duty Truck Module Kit for DirecLink Brake Controller - 9 Pin # 335HDCON-9PIN If your truck has a 9-pin Deutsch connector, or the...

I talked to my contact at Roadmaster and they do not make any anti-sway systems for this chassis, it has two rear axles and will be inherently more stable as is.
