• Solution for Lowered Tailgate on 2016 Ford F-350 Being too Close to 5th Wheel Trailer when Coupling
  If you have a Lippert 1621 pin box that measures 17-3/4" from the center of the king pin to the center of the first row of bolt holes then I do have a pin box that will give you a little bit of additional clearance. The Trailair Air Ride 5th Wheel Pin Box # LC158778 is a direct replacement for a Lippert 1621 pin box and measures 19-1/2" from the center of the king pin to the first row of bolt holes (see attached picture).

• 2001 Ford F-250 Super Duty Locking Louvered Tailgate
  The Stromberg Carlson 100 Series 5th Wheel Tailgate # VG-97-100 doesn't have provisions for a lock on your 2001 Ford F-250 Super Duty but you can use the Stromberg Carlson 4000 Series 5th Wheel Louvered Tailgate # VG-97-4000 instead which does have the lock. The 4000 uses a glass-filled, black composite plastic frame as opposed to the steel frame of the 100, but in addition to the lock on this louvered tailgate you can add the inserts # VI-4000 and # 4000-V to help protect the privacy...

  For your 2018 Ram 3500 Diesel Dually the Stromberg Carlson 4000 Series 5th Wheel Louvered Tailgate with Lock for Dodge Trucks # VGD-10-4000 is my recommendation. There is not a directly compatible backup camera option, but I know people have customized this tailgate to utilize that factory backup camera.

• 5th Wheel Tailgate for a 2019 Ford F-250 Super Duty
  I recommend going with the Stromberg Carlson 4000 Series Tailgate # VG-15-4000 for your 2019 Ford F-250 Super Duty because it features a lock for security and a louvered design that reduces wind drag. If you would like to keep prying eyes from peering into the bed of your pickup then you can install the Louver Insert Kit # 4000-V as well which fills in the gaps of the louvered design. This tailgate has a glass-filled, black composite plastic frame that is lightweight but still sturdy....

• 5th Wheel Tailgate Recommendations for a 2007 Dodge Ram 3500
  We have 2 different 5th wheel tailgates that I recommend for your 2007 Dodge Ram 3500. The best one for your application really just comes down to what style you like better.

This has a weight capacity of 100 lbs but it is see-through. The other design we have is the Stromberg Carlson 4000 Series 5th Wheel Louvered...

• Will Stromberg Carlson 4000 Series 5th Wheel Louvered Tailgate Fit 2011 Ram 1500 with RamBoxes
  The RamBoxes on your 2011 Ram pickup don't really affect the size of the tailgate as much as they do the internal space of your truck bed.

• Can the Stromberg Carlson 5th Wheel Louvered Tailgate for a 2014 Ford F-250/350 Be Painted
  The Stromberg Carlson 4000 Series 5th Wheel Louvered Tailgate part # VG-97-4000 which is a fit for a 2014 Ford F-250/F-350 can be paint matched to the vehicle. That said, if done so I would add the Louver Insert Kit part # 4000-V and the Louvered Tailgate Insert part # VI-4000 and have these painted as well for a very nice and clean finished install look. The finish of the product will all come down to proper prep work which is why this part would be best left to a professional.

• Can Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch be Taller Than Max Height Settings for 2019 Chevy Silverado
  If you have the Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # RP30890 set to max height and you are still needing some extra clearance when backing into your driveway then you either need to adjust the height settings of your pin box, install a 5th wheel tailgate like part # VGM-14-4000 for your 2019 Chevy Silverado 2500, raise the overall height of your trailer, or a combination of all 3 options. There is no way to make your M5 5th wheel hitch taller. I honestly like the louvered tailgate option...

• How to Add Clearance Between 2015 Ram 1500 and Travel Trailer Without Using an Extension
  Thank you for all of the details! It is true that using a hitch extender will reduce the weight capacity of the trailer hitch on your 2015 Ram 1500 (or any vehicle for that matter) by 50% so unless your hitch is rated high enough to take the hit and still be rated higher than your towing setup we need to look at another option. I'm not sure why you need the clearance or what weight distribution (WD) system you currently have but most WD systems use the same type of design so you might...

• 5th Wheel Tailgate and Camera Recommendation for a 2018 Ram 2500
  The only 5th wheel tailgates available for your 2018 Ram 2500 are the Stromberg Carlson 4000 Series # VGD-10-4000 and 100 Series # VGD-10-100.

• Louvered 5th Wheel Tailgate for a 2017 Ford F-350
  I do have a 5th wheel tailgate for your 2017 Ford F-350 but a 5th wheel tailgate from a 2012 Ford F-350 will not work for you nor is there a kit to convert one to the other. Your best option is to purchase the tailgate specifically designed for your truck and sell the old one to recoup some of your money. For your 2017 Ford F-350, I recommend using the Stromberg Carlson 4000 Series 5th Wheel Louvered Tailgate part # VG-15-4000. This is currently the only option we have for you at this time. The...

• Does the Stromberg Carlson 4000 Series 5th Wheel Tailgate Sit Flush with Bed on 2002 Ford F-250
  I spoke with my contact at Stromberg Carlson and she stated that on a 2002 Ford F-250 the 4000 series tail gate, # VG-97-4000, will sit flush with the bed rails on the truck. You should not have a problem with the tonneau cover. On the sides of the tailgate where it is the tallest, it measures 23-3/4 inches tall. Since you do have a tonneau cover you may be interested in adding the Insert Kit, # 4000-V, for added security when not towing the 5th wheel.

• 5th Wheel and Gooseneck Tailgate for a 2017 Ford F-250 with Rearview Camera
  The only replacement tailgate we have for your 2017 Ford F-250 is for 5th wheel and gooseneck towing applications.
