  • Door Panel Access With Adco Tyvek All-Climate Cover On Forest River Salem Travel Trailer
  • The Adco Tyvek All-Climate part # AD87ZR has 3 passenger side panels that allow you full access to the trailer including the front passenger side. I have attached an example photo of a similar Adco Cover on a motor home that shows the front panel open. The All-climate # AD87ZR will work well for your Forest River Salem 26DBLE. The All Climate is made from a Tyvek material that blocks UV rays to combat dry rot and keep your trailer safe during storage. It also comes with 4 tire guards as...

  • Solera Slide Topper for 153-1/2 Inch Slide With Pre-Installed Brackets

  • Installation of SoftStartRV Soft Start on Dometic 3105052.041
  • Thank you for providing that picture. In order to install the # SSR54FR on your Dometic AC you will start by removing the white wire coming from the compressor to the run capacitor and connect it to the blue wire on the SoftStartRV. Next, take the black wire from the SoftStartRV and connect it where the white wire was on the run capacitor. The yellow SoftStartRV wire will connect to the red wire at the run capacitor that goes to the compressor. If there is a 2nd red wire going to the...

  • Can Spare Tire Fit Under etrailer Cargo Carrier for RV Bumper
  • There isn't a way to mount a spare tire directly under the 24x84 etrailer Cargo Carrier for RV Bumper # e96ZR. What you can do if you have enough space on the bumper is add a bumper-mounted spare tire carrier next to the cargo carrier with the Brophy Rigid Mount Spare Tire Carrier # BR56VR or Folding, Bumper Mounted Tire Carrier # TR-2. If you don't have quite enough room with the 84 inch wide cargo carrier, there is a smaller carrier as well, the 24x60 etrailer Cargo Carrier for RV Bumper...

  • Troubleshooting Ram Jack Not Extending or Retracting With Power or By Hand
  • It sounds like your 3,500 lb Electric Jack w/ Footplate # EJ-3520-BBX has a bad internal screw. Since you've tried to operate it both electronically with the buttons as well as mechanically with the manual override you've been able to rule everything else out (good job!). Unfortunately it doesn't look like this is a replaceable part so you'll have to replace the jack entirely and for that I recommend either part # EJ-3520-BBX for an exact replacement or the Ultra-Fab Phoenix # UF38-944040...

  • Will the Solera Power Awning Motor # LC266149 Work on a 2015 Forest River Salem Travel Trailer
  • I spoke with my contact at Lippert who wasn't able to confirm what replaces the SN that you gave me, however I did tell him that you input a 2015 Forest River Salem Travel Trailer in the vehicle guide and he was able to give me some insight. The Solera Power Awning Replacement Motor # LC266149 that you referenced has a pigtail for the wiring that matches all awning motors that were made before 2015 so it is what you need. In 2015 there was a design change, but that would translate over...

  • Recommended Generator Set for 2019 Forest River Salem 30KQBSS Travel Trailer
  • I recommend you only consider an inverter type generator. From the specs available to me online, your 2019 Forest River Salem 30KQBSS Travel Trailer is a 50-Amp service with 2nd A/C Prep option. If you have have the second AC unit installed or a 30-Amp service instead, please let me know. But based on these specs, I recommend the Champion 9,000-Watt Dual Fuel Inverter Generators w/ Parallel Kit for 7,000 Running Watts, # CH49FR. This option will operate up to 14 hours on gasoline, or...

  • Handrail Recommendation for Use with SolidStep RV System
  • Since the SolidStep RV Steps fold up into the interior of the camper you'd need to use a hand rail that attaches to only the outside of the camper like the Stromberg # AM-533. This folds out when needed and would work great. The # AP-101 wouldn't work with a SolidStep.

  • Can Spring Bars of Curt C17062 Weight Distribution System Be Upgraded to Higher Capacity
  • The weight distribution head used on the # C17062 system is rated up to 1500lbs of tongue weight, so you certainly could use two of the #C17074 1400 lb rated replacement spring bars for trailers with a 1000-1400 fully loaded and ready to tow tongue weight. The bars are sold individually, so you'll need two of them.

  • Can Multiple Flint Hill Goods Trailer Coupler Latch Locks Be Ordered with the Same Key
  • I do have an option for your but the Flint Hill Goods Trailer Coupler Latch Lock part # FHG33VR does not have a keyed alike option. I actually recommend going with a slightly different style of lock as the narrow inside span of this lock actually does not work well for a lot of couplers. A pin style, the etrailer Surge Brake Coupler Lock part # e98887 specifically, is far more universal and has a keyed alike option. This is what I recommend using for multiple trailers.

  • Replacement Motor For Lippert Stabilizer Jack
  • Thanks for the photo, and I searched but could not find anything with the numbers on the sticker. Truly, the only way to know which is the correct replacement is to know the model of your Lippert stabilizer jack.

  • Troubleshooting a 12 Volt Fan Switch That Overheats And Shuts Off
  • A Replacement Wall Switch # 344410TSSW12V may or may not fix your problem. It will come down to what exactly is causing the switch to overheat. If the 12V RV Ceiling Fan like # 344410TSDC36BNOKCY is pulling more power than it should do to a damaged fan it will cause the new switch to overheat as well. You will need a Multimeter # PT89ZR to test the power going to the fan motor. This fan is rated at 20 watts of 12 volt power which will be 1.67 amps of power(be sure to check your fan for...
