  • Are Konig Tire Chains Left Or Right Side Specific
  • Hi Louie, Great question, the Konig Tire Chains # TH01594250 are not left or right side specific and either chain will work on either side. These come with their own tensioning system so these will be ready right out of the bag without any additional components.

  • Is There a 7/4-Way Trailer Connector Plus Brake Controller For a 2018 Mercedes Sprinter 2500?
  • To get a 7/4 connector on your 2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Steve, you are going to have to combine the Tekonsha OEM Replacement Vehicle Wiring Harness # TK22115 with the 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket # HM40975. The connector will connect directly to the Tekonsha wiring. If you are going to need a brake controller check out the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Brake Controller for Tekonsha Harness # RED63RR as it will plug directly into the harness included from Tekonsha.

  • Why Does The Hub Bearing Kit # BK2-100 Come With A Cotter Pin
  • Hey Glenn, The Hub Bearing Kit # BK2-100 comes with a cotter pin and a tang washer so that you can prevent either a standard nut or castle nut from backing off, depending on the type of spindle you have. Lippert easy-lube axles have a hole through them for a cotter pin and castle nut, while Dexter axles won't have the hole for the cotter pin and instead use a regular nut and tang washer to prevent the nut from backing off. It doesn't hurt to hang onto the extra hardware incase you need...

  • Is It Possible To Upgrade The Hubs, Tires And Wheels On A Malone EcoLight Trailer?
  • Hello Marcus. As far as the Malone EcoLight Trailer, there really is no way to upgrade the hubs beyond the standard grease hubs that it comes with. It may be possible to use slightly larger tires and wheels, but that will completely depend on the amount of clearance between the tire and the fender. Ideally you want 3" between the tire and the fender, and at least 1" between the inside of the tire and the frame of the trailer. The 4.80/4.00-8 tires that come with the EcoLight are 4.7"...

  • How to Attach the Hitch Ball to a Trailer's Coupler on the Trailer Valet MV PRO
  • To secure the Trailer Valet MV PRO item # TV96FR hitch ball to your trailer's coupler you will want to remove ball from the valet itself and attach it to your trailer using the coupler lock. Then you will come in with the included wrench and tighten it all the way up so it is secure. Once you've completed these steps you'll lower it onto the Valet. We demonstrated this using a different model Trailer Valet and I have linked the video below. It's the same process for the hitch ball so...

  • Tire Change Jack For An 11,000 lb Toy Hauler
  • There are a couple options that may interest you. One very popular option is the Blaylock EZ Jack # EZ-JACK. This is a wedge-style jack. Basically what you would do for a triple axle trailer is turn the curve up, opposite the wheel, and then drive the trailer up on to the jack which will allow you to change a tire. The main things I like about this option is that it is compact and lightweight, it also does not require any "elbow grease" like a manual crank jack. It also can be used as a...

  • Will the Wheels on the Hollywood Racks Rack Valet Rolling Storage Cart Work in Grass?
  • No, they are not! The locking casters that are included with the Hollywood Racks Rack Valet Rolling Storage Cart for Hitch-Mounted Bike Racks item # HRRV-1 aren't going to work very well in grass. They're designed for hard surfaces. It will be pretty easy to swap them out for larger casters/wheels that will work in the grass. I have linked the instructions below so you can take a look at how this rack is assembled.

  • Does The Dexter Trailer Idler Axle 20440I-EZ-60 Come With Pre Grease Hubs
  • Hello Vic. The Idler Hubs that come with the Dexter Trailer Idler Axle # 20440I-EZ-60 do not come pre packed and greased. A tube of bearing grease is included, but the bearings will need to be greased and packed prior to installation. A bearing packer like the Powerbuilt Deluxe Bearing Packer # ALL647646 will make this job much easier.

  • Do You Have To Drill Holes To Attach The Wiring Plug Mount In The Demco Base Plate Kit For a 2023 Fo
  • Yes, you will have to drill holes in your lower fascia to attach the plug mount that is included with the Demco Tabless Base Plate Kit # DM77YV. This is a main reason I prefer to use the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate # RM97RR as they include mounts on their base plate for the wiring/plug mount. There is also a connection for a breakaway cable that comes with a Braking System # SM99251. If you already have a Demco tow bar we do have the Adapter # DM9523032 you can use to mount to...

  • Can I Tow w/ the 2" Receiver on a Stealth Hitch for a 2021 Volvo XC90 Recharge?
  • No, sorry you can not. The 2" receiver that comes with the Stealth Hitches item # SH27FRT can only be used for accessories like bike racks and cargo carriers. It's only been built to withstand the vertical force put it on by accessories. You'll have to use the included ball mount to tow. There's no other options or any way to do any height adjustments with the hitch. The Stealth Hitches item # SH27FRT has been confirmed to fit the 2021 Volvo XC90 Recharge. I have linked an installation...

  • Do The Bolts For The Blue Ox Clevis Adapter # e98978 Need To Be Torqued
  • Hello, Phil. Yes, the bolts that go into the adapters at the end of the arms should be torqued. It looks like those are 5/16" grade 5 bolts so they should be torqued to 18 ft lbs. I have included the torque chart below for your reference.

  • Demco Air Force One Compatibility With A 2022 Newmar Dutch Star On A Spartan K2 Chassis
  • Hi Scott, As long as your motorhome has the 'Spartan Safe Haul' system the Demco Air Force One Flat Tow Brake System for Spartan K2 400 Chassis RVs with Safe Haul # DM54YV would be compatible with the factory air lines on the motorhome. From what I'm reading every Spartan chassis from 2019 and newer should come with the Safe Haul system installed, but it never hurts to verify. If you haven't picked out the rest of your flat towing components then I have the following recommendations...

  • Options For Connecting Safety Cables When Using The Dexter DX29FR Actuator
  • Well Brent that is certainly a valid concern, because the Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator # DX29FR does not have any kind of built in safety cable connections. In fact very few of the surge brake actuators that we carry will have cable connections. In most cases the safety cable connection will be part of the trailer tongue itself and not part of the brake actuator (example pictured below). As far as getting you a cable connection point, it could be as simple as putting a hole a bit...

  • What Needs To Be Welded Underneath The Frame For The Timbren Silent Ride Suspension TSR7000T05
  • The Timbren Silent Ride Suspension # TSR7000T05 will require a 2" x 4 "hollow steel crossmember with 3/16 wall thickness to be welded between the left and right hangers. You will also need to weld the axle seats to the axle. I have included the diagram below for your reference. With a 6" c-channel and 3" crossmembers on top, frame clearance should not be an issue.

  • Does Curt Adjustable 2-Ball Channel Mount For 2-1/2" Hitch & 10-3/8" Drop Come With Pintle
  • Hey Colt, I did a lot of searching and unfortunately the Curt Adjustable 2-Ball Channel Mount for a 2-1/2" Hitch # C45927 does not come with a pintle hook-only attachment, and there isn't a similar option for a 2-1/2" hitch with a rise/drop similar to the 10-3/8" Drop, 8-7/8" Rise this mount has. I know it's not what you wanted but just to be thorough, you can use this mount with Pintle Hook # C45922 and Pins & Clips # C45925.
