Expert Answers about Winnebago View Motorhome


  • Is It Bad to Flat-Tow a 2016 Jeep Wrangler
  • There are no inherent issues with flat towing a Jeep Wrangler, in fact, it is one of the most popular flat-towed vehicles. That said, if you add large aftermarket tires and a lift kit then this will affect its ability to track behind a motorhome properly. It will still work and a lot of people do it but you can run into issues, a lot of times we recommend adding a bungee cord to the steering wheel on lifted Jeeps to help them track better. If you do decide to tow the Jeep you'll need a...

  • Options For A 2 Bike Rack To Go Behind A 2018 Winnebago View 24J
  • Yes we can! We have a few very solid options for a 2 bike rack that you can put behind your 2018 Winnebago View 24J.

  • Yes, the Swagman Bike Cover for RVs part # S24FR is larger than the previous model. This cover measures approximately 67" tall x 84" wide (bottom) x 58" wide (top). It should work to cover most platform type bike racks with bikes.

  • Storage Cover Recommendation for 2016 Winnebago View Motorhome
  • I have a great solution for you but the cover you referenced is for travel trailers and you'd want a cover designed for Class C motorhomes like the Adco Aquashed part # 290-52843 which is the correct size and style for your RV, is waterproof, offers the best protection in all climates, and is easiest to install.

  • Recommended Motorhome Capable E-Bike Rack w/ a Loading Ramp
  • There is an option other than the Hollywood Racks RV Rider Bike Rack item # HLY64FR that has an optional ramp but it tops out at 67 lbs per bike. If you take the batteries out of your Step Thru bikes this will get you to that capacity. It is the Kuat Piston Pro X Bike Rack for 2 Bikes item # KU98VR. The Kuat Piston Pro X item # KU98VR can be used behind any vehicle, motorhome, or trailer with a 2" receiver. It weighs 60 lbs. It is a wheel mount bike rack that clamps onto your wheels around...

  • Hitch Adapter and Bike Rack Recommendation for E-Bike and Flat Towing
  • To replace your Roadmaster High-Low Adapter # RM-048-8 I recommend using this replacement shank from Gen-Y: - Replacement Shank for Gen-Y Adjustable Ball Mount # 325-GH-404 I like this option because it's more heavy-duty than pretty much every other adapter, plus it has a receiver above the shank so your bike rack will be at a higher location for better clearance. Then for a bike rack I recommend using the Swagman E-Spec # S94FR and then using the Swagman Ramp and Bridge # S32YR to...

  • Can Yakima OnRamp Be Used with Dual Hitch Adapter at Rear of Motorhome
  • The Yakima OnRamp part # Y36FR that you referenced can be used in a dual hitch adapter at the rear of a motorhome. The weight of the carrier would count as tongue weight but the full amount of the tongue weight would not be on the hitch since the other side of the tow bar is supported by the front suspension of the towed vehicle.

  • Recommended Solution for Adding Charge Line for Flat Towed Vehicle
  • It sounds like you're looking for the Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Towed Vehicles # RM-156-25, which will allow you to keep the battery on your 2005 Jeep TJ charged; this will tie into the 7 way tow bar wiring/light kit you've got. If you don't have a charge line on your RV's 7 way then you'll also need the Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Motorhomes # RM-156-75. I've linked some review and installation videos of these parts for you to check out.

  • Recommended E-Bike Rack for 2021 Winnebago View
  • The Saris SuperClamp HD 2 Bike Platform Rack - 2" Hitches - Wheel Mount # SAR44VR is what I recommend since it mounts the bikes by the wheels and has 12" from the center of the hitch pin hole on the receiver to the closest point of the bike rack; this will reduce chances the bikes will contact the rear of the coach. This rack is rated for RV use and can carry bikes up to 60-lbs each, so it's great for heavy e-bikes. When it says this can be used on 1-1/4" and 2" hitches, there is an adapter...

  • What is the Length of the Curt 2 Bike Rack # C18085 from the Pin Hole to the Closest part of Rack?
  • First, the Curt rack # C18085 is not approved for use on a motorhome. Instead, I recommend the Thule Hitching Post Pro Bike Rack for 4 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches # TH934XTR. The distance from the hitch pin hole to the closest upright bar on the rack on the # TH934XTR us 13-1/2" then you have additional inches to the first cradle so this should work well for you. Additionally, I chose this 4-bike rack for you so you could simply not use the closest cradle giving you plenty of room outward...

It can hold two bikes weighing up to 80 lbs apiece. So it will work with virtually any bike, even the heavier E-bikes. It also includes a built-in bike lock and hitch lock for added security. It is easy to assemble and install and it comes with a lifetime warranty. I have linked a few of our install/review videos for this...

  • Troubleshooting Remote of Fan-Tastic Roof Vent 7350 Not Operating Fan
  • Have you tried reprogramming the remote? For programming a Fan-Tastic roof vent remote like part # FV9068-09 which is what your 7350 fan part # FV807350 uses what you need to do is hold your remote 12 inches away from the fan while holding both arrows. The Auto and Manual lights will begin flashing immediately. Continue holding both arrows down until the seven LED's flash once. Now it's programmed. You may have to try both sets of arrows, the speed and temp ones. If this does not work...

  • Jensen RV Stereo JWM60A with iRV RV Stereo IRV64FR with an HDMI Option for TV
  • Your Jensen RV Stereo, # JWM60A that is currently in your 2017 Winnebago View Motorhome is a double-DIN stereo unit with cutout dimensions of about 9" wide x 6" tall x 5-1/2" deep and a faceplate of 10-7/16" wide x 7" tall. The iRV RV Stereo, # IRV64FR is also a double DIN stereo but has smaller dimensions of 8-1/4" wide x 4-3/8" tall. So this will require use of some type mounting plate to dress out the area. However, this stereo features the wanted HDMI for your TV audio. It has...

  • Best Suspension Enhancements and Anti Sway Bar for 2018 Winnebago View Motorhome
  • I recommend the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar, # RM-1209-131 for your 2018 Winnebago View Motorhome built on the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 chassis. This Roadmaster anti-sway bar is made of 4140 chromoly which is considerably harder and stronger than the standard 1020 steel commonly used in OEM installed components. In addition, this has a larger diameter that also increases its torsional roll stiffness along with polyurethane bushings. For front end suspension enhancements, I suggest...

  • Recommended Hitch For Carrying a Hitch Mounted Bike Rack and Towing a Boat Trailer
  • I recommend using the Gen-Y Adjustable 2-Ball Mount w/ Stacked Receivers # 325-GH-226 for towing your boat and carrying a bike rack. This hitch fits a 2" receiver and gives you 6 stacked 2" receivers to get the separation you need to be able to tow your boat and carry the bike rack. It is capable of supporting up to 2,000lbs of tongue weight and tow up to 16,000lbs. The Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter # RM-077-10 is only certified to be used with flat towing purposes. You should...

  • 2008 Winnebago View Replacement Taillight Assemblies
  • While we don't have anything that matches what you have the closest option we have would be the part # 47-84-005 which has light panels for running light, stoplight, turn signal, and reverse. It won't exactly match the rear of your View very closely but it will get the job done.

  • Replacement LED 921 Bulb for Overhead RV Interior Lights
  • The 906/921 LED Bulbs # DI38VR will work great for the overhead lights in your 2008 Itasca Navion motorhome. There's no need to replace the entire light unless you wanted to. Replacing the bulb is much easier and more cost effective. LEDs use less power, are brighter than regular incandescent bulbs and last much longer. As far as the light output compared to the incandescent bulbs, the LEDs are going to brighter, and have a color temperature of 5,500 K. So they will be more white with...

These can be bolted or welded onto the frame, and the best option is the 6,500 lb pair: - Ultra-Fab Ultra Scissor Jacks # UF48-979002 I have added a link below to a video review for you to check out as well if you'd like to take a look.
