• Distance Between Maxtrax Lite Recovery Board Mounting Holes
• According to Maxtrax, the mounting holes on the # MA24ZV are 10" on center across the width of the board and 25" lengthwise. All of the mounting pins like # MA48PR use M10 bolts so you will need to drill an appropriate hole based on the type of mounting surface. I attached a link to all of the mounting hardware below for your reference.

• Replacement Illuminated Rocker Switches for Switch Panel on Grand Design RV
• Thanks for the info and photos, Joe! From what I'm seeing in your photos it looks like the Mini-Illuminated 12V Switch # 37212765 could be a great option for you.

• Can The Swagman E-Spec Haul Two E-Bikes On The Bumper Of A Travel Trailer
• The Swagman E-Spec Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # S94FR has a 70lb per bike capacity when mounted to an RV, like your travel trailer. You would need to reach out to the manufacturer of the trailer to determine the weight capacity of the bumper to ensure it can handle the weight of the bikes and rack. If it can then you can use the Curt RV Bumper Mounted Hitch # C19101. If not, then you'll to install an adjustable mount trailer hitch receiver. To find the correct size you'll measure...

• Overall Height Of Buyers Products 50 Ton Air Compensated Pintle Hook # 337PH50
• I went to our warehouse and measured the Buyers Products 50 Ton Air Compensated Pintle Hook # 337PH50 to get the height dimensions. The overall height of the pintle when open is 12" and when closed is 9-1/2". I also took a measurement for the height from the center mounting hole which you can have as reference point if your recessed area already has the holes drilled. When open it is 9-1/4" to the top of the hitch and 6-1/2" when closed. I have included images below with these measurements...

• Replacement RV City Water Inlet For A 2005 Fleetwood Terry Dakota Travel Trailer
• Hi Craig, RV city water inlets are typically all the same size but the mounting style and flange size can vary so you'll want to measure the current flange to determine if the # 372160-85-A-26A's 3" flange diameter will be enough to cover the cutout hole. Recessed mounts typically require a bigger flange to cover the hole. If you can send me some measurements on your current inlet I'd be happy to verify. To seal your new inlet you'll want to use a bit of butyl tape # AL28FJ on the mounting...

• Tankless Replacement For An Atwood GC10A-4E RV Water Heater
• RV water heater sizes have shrunk a bit over the last few years so you may have to do a bit of framing to install a new tankless water heater. Based on the dimensions of the GC10A-4E that I'm seeing you could possibly get away with just a 16" x 16" access door with the Furrion Tankless Water Heater # FR98SR. If you measure your current door and find you need to go larger with the 16" tall by 18" wide then you'll want part # FR48SR instead. I've attached a video to help walk you through...

• Replacement Slider
• If you have 12" wide tracks you can use the JR Products Screen Door Slider - 12" - Black # 37211175 you were looking at. We don't have anything that is 11-1/2" tall so I recommend measuring the width of the tracks for the slide to be sure.

• Will Kuat Piston Pro and Piston Pro X Fit New Ford Bronco With Rear Mounted Spare Tire
• The answer to your question depends on where the hitch sits on the Bronco and how far the tire sticks out. This is not information that we have so you will have to use our measurements to compare on your Bronco. The distance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the closest part of the Kuat Piston Pro # KU76ZR and Piston Pro X # KU98VR is 10-1/8". If this is enough to clear the spare then it will work. More than likely you will need additional clearance. In this case, the best solution...

• Is It Okay to Have Ball Mount 1" Off of Towing Trailer Level
• Thanks for reaching out, Michael! As long as you're within 1" of being level you'll be just fine. I will say that in your case I'd recommend picking up a 0 drop ball mount like the Flint Hill Goods Tri-Ball Mount # FHG62VR so you're 1" above what you need rather than 1" below. Reason being that when you couple up to the trailer your vehicle ball mount will naturally squat just a little so if you're 1" above what you need, it will help level things out a little once everything is hooked up.

• SnapPad Jack Pads For A 2024 Jayco Pinnacle 5th Wheel Trailer
• There's unfortunately not a guide to tell us the sizing of your trailer's jack pads so you'll want to measure and note the shape of each pad. I've run into numerous situations where the front and rear pads were either different sizes or shapes to work with the space available. The SnapPad # SN88FR you were looking at are designed to fit four 9" round pads and two 12" round pads. If you can let me know what your shape and dimensions are I'd be happy to pick out the correct package.

• Could Surco Exterior Ladder # SP502L FIt 1997 Lance Squarelite
• Hey Echo, so if the part # SP502L matches all of the dimensions you can take I would say it's pretty safe to assume it would fit and work great. Worst case scenario the attachment on top of the ladder might need to be relocated or modified.

• Which Lippert Manual Pull-Out Steps Fit Intech Sol Horizon Rover
• To find which steps fit your Intech Sol Horizon Rover you will have to measure. The Lippert pull-out steps attach the underside of the camper chassis, directly beneath the doorway. To decide which size you'll need, locate the space available underneath your camper that lines up with the door frame, and measure the width and depth. To determine how many steps you'll need, measure from the mounting point to the ground. This is called the entry height. The entry height should roughly match...

• Replacement Anode Rod For An RV Water Heater In A Grand Design Transcend Travel Trailer 265BH
• Hi Kathi, Anode rods are sacrificial hunks of metal that are designed to deteriorate so that the metal of the tank won't. A bit more length for the rod would just mean that this new anode rod would last longer. Most RV water heaters require an anode rid with a 3/4" NPT thread size so you'll want to measure the opening to see if the 1/2" # CAM11593 would be a compatible fit. When you open the door there should be a few stickers with some information about the water heater and the model...
