Damper Recommendation for Ventline S0721 Series RV Range Hood on 2017 Coachmen Apex Nano
Since your wall thickness is 1-3/8 inches the damper you'll want is the deeper part # V2111-13 which is 1-3/4 inches. This will allow you to trim it back as needed so that it fits properly with the Ventline S0721 Series RV Range Hood # S0721-20BD-F-1.

How to Reset Hardwired Brake Controller With No Quick Disconnect
You certainly can, but you'll need to interrupt the power supply to the brake controller for a minute or two, then reconnect it. The easiest and safest way would be to pull the fuse on that circuit or remove the positive battery cable for a minute or two.

Why Does Dexter Heavy Duty Suspension Upgrade Kit for Single Axle Trailers Only Come with 4 Bushings
Great question, Brian! The bushings that fit on the bolts for the shackle straps tend to wear out a bit faster than the ones that connect your leaf spring directly to a hanger which is why there are only 4 bushings in the Dexter Heavy Duty Suspension Upgrade Kit for Single Axle Trailers # K71-358-00. If you wanted to get 2 additional of the bushings that come in this kit then the part # D014-077-00 is the exact same bushing so you just need to order 2 of them as well.

Replacement Pull Out RV Steps For A 2018 Coachmen Apex Nano 193BHS Trailer Trailer
The Lippert part number 173552 you referenced comes back to the Lippert Manual Pull-Out Step for RVs # LC432682. Because there is a bit of cross over with these item numbers it's best to take a quick measurement of what you currently have to ensure nothing was lost in translation. These steps have the following dimensions depicted below. If you find the measurements differ from what your 2018 Coachmen Apex Nano 193BHS Trailer Trailer has then please let me know what those measurements...

Can Fan-Tastic Vent Ultra Breeze Trailer Roof Vent Cover # FVU1500WH be Used in Rain
The Fan-Tastic Vent Ultra Breeze Trailer Roof Vent Cover # FVU1500WH that you referenced can be used in rain. I'd interpret what they say as "inclement weather" as a nasty thunderstorm or heavy snow. That said, if hail or heavy snow caused damage the warranty would not cover it.

What is Smallest Diameter Hitch Ball Available
The Curt Sway Control Hitch ball part # C40093 that you referenced is designed to attach to the side of a standard hitch ball as part of a friction sway control kit like the # 17200. Normally a mount like the part # RP26003 is attached to the ball mount platform so that it can sit next to it. See attached picture. The smallest standard size hitch ball out there is the 1-7/8 inch like the part # 19256.

Weight Distribution Recommendation for Trailer that Weighs 4,000 lbs
All of the components you mentioned will do a great job for a towing setup for your 2017 Ford Flex and they are all linked below for you to check out but to answer your main question about weight distribution the way to do it is to base off of the loaded tongue weight of the setup. So since your trailer would be 4,000 lb you'd most likely have a tongue weight around 400 to 500 lbs so the system I would recommend is the Strait Line part # RP66082 which has a tongue weight range between...

Can 205/75R15 Wheels And Tires Be Mounted On a Coachman Apex Nano With 14" Wheels?
To determine if you will be able to move from your ST205/75R14 # AM34659 to a 15" you will need to check for how much clearance you have. The Castle Rock ST205/75R15 Radial Tire w/ 15" Liger Aluminum Wheel # LH89FR while being the same width is about 1" taller. This will reduce the gap between your tires by 1" and any vertical clearance to a fender or other parts 1/2". I like to see a minimum of 2" between the tires and 3" of vertical clearance for the suspension to be able to compress...

Are My Load Range D Tires Rated Sufficiently For My 2019 Coachmen Apex Nano
It looks like your 2019 Coachmen Apex Nano has a GVWR of 3800-lbs. When it comes to the tires that you've got, which are 205/75R14-Load Range D like the Kenda Karrier # AM10235, those are going to have a capacity of 2200-lbs each, for a total of 4400-lbs. As long as you're not overloading your trailer, you really don't need to be concerned with them being insufficient. According to your spec sticker, this trailer is only designed to carry an additional 800-lbs or so of cargo, so I would...

Recommended RV Storage Cover For A 2021 Coachmen Apex Nano 185BH Travel Trailer
The length I'm seeing for a 2021 Coachmen Apex Nano 185BH is approximately 20.58' so you'll want the Adco Olefin HD All-Climate + Wind RV Cover for Travel Trailer # AD47ZR. The Olefin HD travel trailer cover works best for long-term storage in all climates. The top panel constructed of Olefin HD fabric blocks harmful UV rays that can cause cracking and fading, beads water on contact, prevents dirt and dust particles from reaching trailer surface, and eliminates black streaks and corrosion...

Which Bottle Jack for 2018 Coachmen Apex Nano 193BHS Travel Trailer
I have a solution for you, but I don't believe the Powerbuilt # ALL640405 is going to provide the needed length of piston to lift a trailer that's already 22" from the ground; this unit is only capable of lifting up 12" and you won't want to stack up multiple boards under and on the bottle it to make it work. The best available solution would be the Powerbuilt Unijack Bottle Jack with Built-In Jack Stand - 21" Lift - 6,000 lbs # ALL620471, which can extend to 21" tall and has a 6000-lbs...

Can Different Equal-i-zer Spring Bars Be Used With The Same Head
Because of the way the head and spring bars are designed the bars will only fit the head of the same rating. I know most systems will let you swap out the bars, and that would certainly be ideal. If you want to switch to the 6k bars # EQ90-01-0699 then you will need to replace the head with the # EQ90-02-0600 as well. The brackets and the shank will work for all systems so there is no need to replace those.

Can 14 Wheels and Tires Be Upgraded to 15 Wheels and Tires on 2015 Coachmen RV Apex 187RB
You can add 15" wheels and tires to your 2015 Coachmen Apex 187RB as long as you have enough clearance. Typically you want a minimum of 3" of clearance on the top of the tire for normal suspension travel and 2" on the inside of the tire. Adding a 15" tire will mean losing some of that clearance on your trailer. Using a 205/75-15 tire will result in the smallest difference in size when switching. A good choice would be the Karrier ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire # AM10244. This tire has...

Recommended Replacement RV LED Dome Light With Switch
Depending on the type of light you have whether incandescent or LED you could have a variety of reasons for why your current light isn't working correctly. Incandescent bulbs have a typical lifespan of 750 - 2,000 hours while LED's have a typical lifespan of 50,000 hours. Voltage drops typically are the cause of flicker so if you have other appliances or items running on the same circuit they could be causing the flicker. Loose connections could also be the cause, which would either be...

Hello Erick, I can definitely help point you in the right direction. Do you happen to know what brand or model of awning is on your 2020 coachmen Nano 185?

Is There Trailer Axle Over Under Kit that Could Fit 5x8 Utility Trailer
If the diameter of your axle was 3 inches the kit part # K71-385-00 would work to allow you to move the springs in relation to the axle. Based on the size of the trailer you'd most likely have a smaller diameter axle like 2-3/8 inch like what the part # K71-384-00 fits. If you have a different diameter axle let me know and I'll see what options you may have.
