Anytime that you use tire chains there is a possibility that may slightly scratch your wheels if they are not installed correctly. The Titan Chain part # TC2327 is designed with color coded connection points so as long as they are on the tire correctly they barely touch the actual wheel. This tire chain provides the best fit and easiest install for the tire sizes of 275/45-22, 275/55-20, or 275/65-18 on a 2018 Ford F-150. I have attached a video for your reference. view full answer...
The monitor light of the Brakemaster part # RM-9160 doesn't tie into the tow bar wiring of the vehicle it installs in and instead wires to the towed vehicle. I attached a diagram that shows how the switch wires up as well. view full answer...
The item you selected Curt Front-Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver, part # 31038, does not require trimming or removal of fascia to be installed. You will have to remove or trim the skid plate to install. The tow hooks will also need to be removed to install Curt Front-Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver and then are re-installed.
The Curt Front-Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver, part # 31038, will only fit the 4-wheel drive model F-150. If you have a 2-wheel drive model, you will need Draw-Tite Front... view full answer...
You are correct that a level trailer will be less likely to sway and keeping your hitched trailer level will enable a weight distribution (WD) system to function at its best. It is perfectly okay for a hitch ball to be an inch or so higher than the coupler on the level trailer since a little bit of normal squat will even things out but if your trailer is tipped up at the tongue when it is hitched to your F-150 you'll want to select a different shank for your WD hitch that will allow the... view full answer...
A rear axle air spring kit will help offset the sag you're experiencing in your lifted FX4 when you tow. You will most likely need a 6-inch spacer to install the AirLift kit # AL57200 you referenced but you can refer to the linked diagram to confirm. For a 6-inch spacer use # F2375.
I strongly recommend you also use a compressor with your install, part # AL25592. Without an on-board compressor it is tough to find the air pressure sweet spot for your towing load. You have to pull over and... view full answer...
The Rock Tamers Heavy-Duty Adjustable Mud Flap System # ERT00108 is a great universal option but there is a good chance that they would trigger those proximity sensors on your 2018 Ford F-150 when attached. The mud flaps will slide onto your ball mount and the raised crossbar will extend the length of the rear bumper which is exactly where those sensors are located.
To avoid this interference your best option will be with a permanent mount kit that's custom fit for your truck. For this... view full answer...
The best way to pick out a weight distribution system is to base it off of the loaded tongue weight of the setup when it is loaded and ready to tow. This figure also includes the weight of any cargo behind the rear axle of the tow vehicle. I attached a help article on determining tongue weight for you to check out as well. You will want the loaded tongue weight of your setup to fall right in the middle of the tongue weight range of the system you use.

The correct hitch for your 1997 Ford F-150 2WD will depend on the bed type, either stepside or regular, and in terms of towing capacity you can select a hitch class that matches the truck's own capabilities or just go for a heavy-duty Class V. All hitches for the truck appear on the linked page but I suggest you use the Class V Curt hitch # C15303 so long as you have a 20-inch or smaller spare tire. This USA-made hitch fits both flareside/stepside beds and regular bed models. It offers... view full answer...
Individual parts from the Westin Installation Hardware Kit # 23-110PK referenced in your question are unfortunately not available from the manufacturer by themselves. If you need only one or a few of the included parts then you will need to obtain the entire kit.
This will at least give you spare parts for your Nerf Bars if anything else were to need replacement further down the line. This particular kit is designed to replace the mounting hardware for the Westin E-Series Round Nerf Bars... view full answer...
I wish I had better news for you but Sidewinders will only replace specific pin box models, and there are no Sidewinders that will work as replacements for a Atwood 34 pin box so you will need to use a sliding hitch.
If your F-150 has a 6-1/2 foot bed but you have the fixed (non-sliding) Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16120 you can convert it to a sliding hitch with just the Curt R16 Round Tube Slider # C16560.
Otherwise, if your F-150 has a 5-1/2 foot bed the only option is the... view full answer...
With your 2015 Ford F-150 it sounds like there is a bad ground on your trailer or a bad connection. First I recommend using some sand paper on your wiring connection to ensure there is good contract between the pins free of corrosion and debris.

To replace the Velcro strips for the TruXedo Lo Pro Tonneau Cover # TX577601 on your 2008 Ford F-150 you just need the part # TX1115174. Just keep in mind that you will need to cut the strip down to size as it's technically made for the 6-1/2 foot bed. TruXedo does not offer a replacement Velcro kit specific to 5-1/2 foot beds so this is what you need.
The kit includes 2 Velcro Brand fasteners. I have attached a short video review that you can check out as well. view full answer...
The Karrier ST205/75R14 Radial Trailer Tire with 14" Galvanized Wheel - 5 on 4-1/2 - Load Range C # AM32156 does have a tire rated at 1,925 lbs at 60 psi. It is tire # AM10234 which I've linked for you to check out. The wheel is a lesser rated capacity of 1,870 lbs as you stated and is the Steel Spoke Trailer Wheel - 14" x 6" Rim - 5 on 4-1/2 - Galvanized Finish # AM20354.

When towing a trailer that has a gross weight that is over 50 percent of the vehicle's gross weight, a weight distribution system is recommended.
In order to use one weight distribution hitch for both of your trailers (camper and boat), I would go with the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution w/ 2-Point Sway Control # FA94-00-1033. This has a tongue weight range of 600-1,000lbs and max towing capacity of 10,000lbs, which makes it the perfect weight distribution system to handle both of your... view full answer...
The inflation valve if faulty can be replaced with the Firestone Inflation Valve for 1/4" Tubing part # F3032-1. If you have a valve core removal tool you can make sure the stem inside is tight. It could be a failed o-ring on this component depending on where the leaks are coming from. view full answer...
If the tonneau cover installs between the bed rails you could install a Thule TracRac SR ladder rack like the part # TH43002XT-000 for an 8 foot bed, # TH43002XT-501 for a 6-1/2 foot bed, or part # TH43002XT-508 for a 5-1/2 foot bed.
Since the SR installs through the top of the bed rails it allows a tonneau cover to fit between the bed rails.
