  • Axletek-12-GG Replacement Brake Assembly and Hub Recommendation
  • The correct set of replacement brake assemblies for your AxleTek 12 inch assemblies is the kit part # AKEBRK-7-SA that you referenced. This kit is a pair of left and right assemblies that are an exact match to what you have that are also self adjusting as well. Then if you have a 6 lug hub/drum currently the correct replacement would be the part # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K or if you have an 8 lug hub you'd need # AKHD-865-7-G-EZ-K.

  • Left Side Self Adjusting Brake Assembly For A 2017 Sportsmen Classic 180tht Single Axle Trailer
  • If it feels like the hubs are getting too hot, one item to check is if the spindle nut is too tight and the added stress on the bearings is overheating the bearings and hub that could cause damage to the bearings. I have attached a video of our technician installing a hub on a trailer and how the spindle nut should be tightened to prevent over heating. At the 1 minute and 45 second mark you can see the hub installation. You also will want to try adjusting your brakes since it's possible...

  • Tandem Axle Lift Kit for a 2021 K-Z Sportsmen Travel Trailer
  • The only tandem axle lift kit available is the Correct Track Trailer Alignment and Lift Kit - Tandem Axle item # RR23QX. It is comparable to the Lippert system and will raise your 2021 K-Z Sportsmen Travel Trailer trailer height by 1-1/4" or 2-1/4". If your axles are above your leaf springs you can always use an axle flip kit to gain 2"-3" of lift depending on how thick your axle is. If you have a 2-3/8" axle you will want the Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit item # K71-384-00....

  • Recommended Weight Distribution Hitch For A 2017 K-Z Sportsmen Classic 14RBT Travel Trailer
  • To get the best performance out a weight distribution hitch you'll want to first know your trailer's fully loaded tongue weight. Once you're fully loaded you could use a tongue weight scale like the # e99044 to get an accurate number to work with. Most likely you'll fall around the 400lb range. If you're experiencing a minor amount of sway then I recommend the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution w/ 2-Point Sway Control # FA92-00-0450. This system has two friction points (where the frame brackets...

  • Recommended RV Storage Cover For A 2017 K-Z Sportsmen Classic 14RBT Travel Trailer
  • For a 2017 K-Z Sportsmen Classic 14RBT Travel Trailer you would actually want the Adco Olefin HD RV Cover for Travel Trailers up to 15' - All Climate + Wind - Gray # AD57ZR, which is 15' in length and covers just the body of the trailer. If you wanted to cover the tongue as well then you could go with a larger one like # AD37ZR, which would have extra material to cover the tongue but would also have a bit more slack since it wouldn't be as tight of a fit. This cover has zippered panels...

  • What Hose and 2-Stage Regulator Do I Need for My Travel Trailer?
  • The fitting you need is a type 1 like the MB Sturgis Propane Hose w/ Back Check - Type 1 x 1/4" MPT - 20" # 100473-20-MBS. As far as the regulator, I recommend the Camco Vertical 2-Stage Propane Regulator - 160,000 Btu/Hr # CAM59313. If you need the supply hose, that is the # 37207-31255. It is important to note that this supply hose is for the standard 3/8" male fitting on the manifold.

  • How to Determine if Ultra-Fab Power Twin II Electric Stabilizers Will Fit
  • It is very likely, but we don't have any way of knowing specific fits for stabilizers, though I can tell you how to determine this. All you need to do is measure outside-to-outside of your Sportsman's frame. If that measurement is between 48 inches and 80 inches then you can use the Ultra-Fab Power Twin II Electric Stabilizer with Dual Motors # UF39-941705.

  • Noise Level of Everchill 12V Refrigerator
  • The Everchill 12V Refrigerator # 324-000119 has a sound output of about 34 to 42 decibels. It's hard to provide a specific comparison to standard 120V or gas units as it's going to be dependent on the particular model/size but by comparison the average household (120V) refrigerator typically is around 50 decibels when running. A whisper is usually 20 to 30 decibels.

  • Does Reese Friction Sway Control # 83660 Have to Install at 24 inches
  • The Reese friction sway control part # 83660 has to install at exactly 24 inches. If the clearance is better on the other side of the trailer what you could do is pull out the inner piece of the unit and flip it 90 degrees and reinstall it so that you could install it on the opposite side of the trailer.

  • How To Choose Correct Ball Mount for 1-1/4" Trailer Hitch
  • In order to choose the correct ball mount you need to measure the distance from the ground to the top inside edge of the trailer hitch and then subtract the distance from the ground to the bottom of the trailer coupler while the trailer is level. If the vehicle is higher than the trailer you need a drop but if it's lower you'll need a rise. I have attached a full list of ball mount options below for a 1-1/4" trailer hitch.

  • Portable Solar Panel Kit Recommendation for 2018 Retro Trailer Solar Inlet
  • Thanks for the photo! The Goal Zero Boulder 200 Briefcase Solar Panel # 287-32409 uses a specialized connector that is different from what you have pictures but we have the Go Power Portable Solar Panel with Digital Solar Controller - 200 Watt Solar Panel # 34282610 that comes with an adapter to fit that inlet. A lot of the newer solar panel systems are from Go Power so odds are your trailer is setup with this same brand. This is a plus because this portable kit uses a PWM charger which...

  • Correct Gauge Wire Needed for Trailer Electric Brakes
  • We always recommend going with 10 Gauge Wire # 10-1-1 for the electric brakes. Technically 12 Gauge should work but since the wiring has to run a ways we go with the mindset that a slightly larger wire might possibly let a little more power through and give you a better connection. You'll want to use heat shrink butt connectors # DW05745-10 for this installation.
