  • Does Reese Make the Ford Hitch Prep Fifth Wheel Rails
  • Reese Elite underbed rails and the Ford hitch prep packages are the exact same underbed rail systems. Reese makes the kits for Ford. For more info on this check out the link I attached to the right. The Curt leg kit part # C16017 that you referenced would install in either the Reese Elite or the Ford hitch prep package as long as everything was installed correctly. We have not heard of any issues where the Curt hitches designed for the Ford hitch prep didn't fit.

  • Will a Trailer Hitch Ball with a Raw Finish Last as Long as a Ball with a Chrome Finish
  • A chrome finish ball is going to look good but it will not be corrosion resistant. A ball with a machine finish like # C40041, is going to have about the same corrosion resistance. In terms of performance they will wear at about the same rate under normal use. The best balls in terms of corrosion are going to be stainless steel followed by zinc coated balls. But in terms of balls that have a 30,000 pound capacity and a 1-1/4 inch shank, ball # BWHB94004 or # C40085 are the only options....

  • Does # BWTS10040B B&W Adjustable Ball Mount Use Stainless Steel Hitch Pins
  • The B&W Tow and Stow ball mount you referenced, part # BWTS10040B does indeed use stainless steel pins. At one time, the ball mount included the Nitrotec pins, until problems were discovered with the pins. All the stock we have on hand uses the stainless pins, and that's what B&W will ship out henceforth.

  • What Gauge Wire Does the Heavy Duty Magnetic Tow Lights Part # TL21RK Use
  • I spoke to my contact at Optronics and they informed me that the Heavy Duty Magnetic Tow Lights part # TL21RK uses a 20 gauge wire. This will be standard for most magnetic tow lights for the exception of a few which can use an 18 gauge wire but that would be the thickness wire used in a set of magnetic tow lights.

  • Is Titan Disc Brake Kit T4843800 Made in the USA?
  • The Titan Disc Brake Kit and BrakeRite Electric-Hydraulic Actuator - Tandem, 3,500-lb Axle # T4843800 are great quality but they are not manufactured in the USA. The bearings are also not Timken brand as the manufacturer makes their own bearings. Titan was bought by Dexter which is an USA made company so the major components can be used as an alternative. For instance the Dexter DX Series Electric Over Hydraulic Brake Actuator for Disc Brakes - 1,600 psi # K71-651 can be used as an alternative...

  • Is the White Miro-Flex LED Clearance or Side Maker Light Reflective
  • The Miro-Flex LED Clearance or Side Maker Light w/ Chrome Bezel # MCL17CRB has some reflective attributes to it but it doesn't have a full-fledged reflector like what we see with some other lights. None of the white marker lights that we carry have a true reflector but you can add a reflector by using the tape part # 29804.

  • How Much Does Extreme Off-Road Ratcheting Trailer Jack w/ Wheel ORJW1SU Weigh?
  • The Extreme Off-Road Ratcheting Trailer Jack w/ Wheel - Sidewind - 10" Lift - 770 lbs - Zinc # ORJW1SU weighs 41 lbs packaged for shipping. It likely will add about 39 lbs to your tongue but depending on your trailer balance it may not all be tongue weight but the majority will be simply based on location. Your loaded trailer may change your tongue weight based on how you load your cargo. If you want a specific weight you can use a scale like the etrailer # e99044.

  • Is the Curt C45900 Adjustable Cast or Manufactured from Bar Stock
  • The Curt # C45900 is not cast. It is constructed of a solid piece of 2x2 inch steel bar stock welded to the channel mount. The connection between the bar stock and channel is fully gusseted above and below for strength. When the 2-5/16 inch ball is used, the adjustable ball mount has a 14K capacity which is reduced to 10K with the 2 inch ball. The hall height can be adjusted from a drop of 6 inches to a rise of 5-1/4 inches in 1 inch increments. I've linked to a product demonstration video...

  • Will The Truxedo Sentry CT Stand Up To Scuffs and Scratches
  • Any scuffing of either of these tonneau covers, The Truxedo Sentry or the Truxedo Sentry CT will probably be permanent. I think it will be harder to see those imperfections on the Sentry CT because it's cover is a woven 5-layer fabric, which makes it very durable. I think one of the reasons that neither of these tonneau covers come with a glossy finish is because it is harder to see those imperfections on a matte finish. I have included a link to all of our Truxedo Sentry tonneau covers below.

  • Troubleshooting Trailer Tire Wear on the Outside Edge of the Tire
  • Typically, when the outside edges of a tire are showing wear its because the tires are under-inflated. The solution is to inflate the tires to the maximum pressure listed on the sidewall. Now if the outside of tires have what looks like gouges are taken out of the rubber most likely it is broken suspension components or its a bent axle or spindle. Unlike passenger vehicle tires, you always want to have trailer tires inflated to the maximum tire pressure for the best performance and wear. Now...
