• Will the Thule Wheel-On Roof Mounted Bike Wheel Carrier Work In Channels
• I do have an option for you but the Thule Wheel-On Roof Mounted Bike Wheel Carrier part # TH593 will not work with channels nor is there an adapter for this. However, what you can do is use the SeaSucker Add-On Wheel Holder part # 298-BA1370 along with some appropriate hardware to mount in the channels. The Aero Style Crossbar T-Slot Fit Kit part # MPG915 should work for this.

• Air Bag Fit on 2021 Ford F-350 Cab & Chassis
• I checked with the manufacturers and found there was one option for air bags that fit your 2021 Ford F-350 cab and chassis, which is from Firestone: - Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2176 These will fit so long as you have at least 7-1/2 inches from the outside of the frame to the inside of the tire, so I do recommend verifying that. These are 4,800 lb capacity air bags, as there isn't an option for the 7,500 lb capacity bags you mentioned. That said, in regards to quality it...

• Reusing Hardware From MaxxAir II Vent Covers on FanMate Vent Covers
• The MaxxAir FanMate RV and Trailer Roof Vent Cover # MA00-955001 will not connect to the Installation Hardware for MaxxAir II RV and Trailer Roof Vent Cover. This is due to the covers being different sizes and therefore the mounts in the FanMate are not as long as the MaxxAir II mounts. The FanMate is designed to clip on to the MaxxAir MaxxFan's that have the quick attach mounting tabs already included on their fans produced since 2015. So if you have those vents then you can utilize...

• Recommended Replacement For A Dometic 57915.741 RV Air Conditioner System
• Hi Paul, The 57915.741 comes back as a 13,500BTU unit so you can go with another 13,500BTU system or upgrade to a higher rating. Furrion dropped their line 14,500BTU units so you'll have to choose between 13,500 or 15,000. Upgrading to a higher BTU rated unit will help improve overall efficiency and cool the trailer quicker so I typically recommend increasing the BTU rating, but it will end up costing a bit more up front. We have the following options available with a wall thermostat: 13,500BTU: Black...

• Can The Flow Through Sensors In The TireMinder A1AS TPMS Be Used On A Rubber Valve Stems
• The flow through sensors # TM66FR included in the TireMinder A1AS TPMS for RVs and Trailers w Signal Booster # TM86FR can be used on higher quality rubber, steel, chrome, or nickel valve stems that are rated. Lower quality rubber valve stems can bend and flex and with the weight of the sensors on them can eventually wear the rubber enough for a leak or complete failure. This is why TireMinder recommends switch to a sturdy metal valve stem to avoid any issues. If you look at TireMinder's...

• Do You Have a 3,500LB Axle With 91" Hub Face With Leaf Springs & U-Bolts For Tandem Axle Car Hauler?
• While you are going to have to special order your axle as it is a uncommon size we do not carry, I can help you with the leaf springs and U-bolts. We do have the 4-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 3,500-lb Trailer Axles # e54SR but do note these are 25-1/8" long rather than 25-1/4". The 1/8" difference is not going to cause you any issues as the shackles will take care of the minor difference in length. We have the U-bolts in a Zinc and Galvanized Kit # CE23002 or Painted # APUBR-1. Clearly...

• Recommended Hobie Outback Kayak Carrier for a 2005 Ford F-350
• Honestly because your kayaks are so heavy, you're not going to be able to use a standard roof kayak carrier because you'd be overloading your bars. If by "rack on the truck" you're talking about a ladder rack like # TH27000XTB then you can just use 2 of the Malone Foam Kayak Block for Truck Racks - 14" Long # MPG159 with the tie downs # MPG306 - or 2 of the Rhino-Rack Nautic 580 Side Loading Kayak Roof Rack w/ Tie-Downs # RR580. If you don't have a ladder rack, then you could use a cantilever...

• What is the Wire at the Top of the HappiJac Circuit Board For
• The black wire at the top of the Replacement Circuit Board for HappiJac Electric Truck Camper Jack Systems # LC733513 is the antenna wire, not the ground wire. If it's broken off, then you'll need to replace the entire circuit board because this wire isn't replaceable.

• What Maintenance Is Required With An Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Hitch
• Equal-i-zer has a small section in the owner's manual for the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution w/ 4-Point Sway Control # EQ37101ET that lists where to check for wear and places to add some lube as needed. You'll essentially just need to grease the head of the hitch where the spring bar receivers touch the head with their specific lubricant # EQ91-00-4250. I wouldn't go crazy with the lube either, just enough of a coating to prevent sticking or corrosion build up. You'll definitely want...

• What is the Weight Capacity For Each Hitch Ball In The Tow Ready Interchangeable Ball Set 63803?
• I reached out to Tow Ready and they were unable to provide me with any specs for the individual hitch balls on the Interchangeable Hitch Ball Set # 63803. While I thought this is quite strange I am not surprised and it likely has the same ratings as the TowSmart Hitch Ball Set # 3481256. The 1-7/8" ball is rated up to 3,500lbs, the 2" ball is rated up to 6,000lbs and the 2-5/16" ball is rated up to 8,000lbs. This information is printed right on the balls themselves so there is no confusion...

• Can Detail K2 Storm II Plow be Used with 2018 Ram 1500
• Sorry for the confusion Franklin! But you can use the Detail K2 Storm II part # K2STOR8422 with your 2018 Ram 1500 with the correct custom brackets for your truck part # K284314. With these two part numbers you would have everything you would need including the crossbar. The custom mounting bracket plow options are a lot better than the front mount options which just aren't quite as secure. Fun fact we've ripped a couple front hitches off a Highlander here using a front hitch plow setup.

• How Often Should Your Roadmaster Tow Bar Be Inspected, Cleaned, And Lubricated
• I've attached the owner's manual below for the Roadmaster Falcon All-Terrain Tow Bar # RM-522. On page 8 there's a section going over how to specifically clean the tow bar using their tow bar cleaner # RM-9932 and then how to lubricate the tow bar using their lubricant # RM-747. It's important that you do not use other lubricants like WD-40 or grease on the tow bar as these will allow dirt/debris to stick and will bind up the tow bar. Roadmaster recommends inspecting, cleaning, and lubricating...

• Adapters Needed To Connect A Roadmaster Nighthawk Tow Bar To Maximus-3 Tow Loops
• It looks like the Maximus-3 tow loops you referenced are 3/4" thick and work with a 7/8" pin so the Adapter for Jeep D-Ring Bumper Mounts to Roadmaster Motor Home Mount Tow Bars - 3/4" Thick # RM-035 would be the correct size adapters for your Roadmaster Nighthawk Tow Bar # RM-676.

• Are Replacement Locking Knobs Available For The Thule T2 Pro XTR Bike Rack
• Hi Joh, Unfortunately the locking knob on the Thule T2 Pro XTR Bike Rack for 4 Bikes # TH69TX isn't replaceable part. It's built into the base/shank in a way that the entire base/shank would have to be replaced as well, essentially making the bike rack as a whole trash. That being said, you can still use the rack, but wouldn't be able to tighten it in the hitch so it would unfortunately rattle. This apparently has been a big issue for other owners of this rack and I've read that Thule...
