  • Should Stromberg Carlson Motor LG-142178 be Replaced With Same Model
  • Hey there Scott; I do recommend replacing your 142178 with the same option, the Replacement Motor for Stromberg Carlson Electric Landing Gear # LG-142178. There isn't going to be an upgrade for you that will be a better option.

  • Weight Distribution Hitch Recommendation For a 2002 Thor Tahoe Toy Hauler
  • Hello Laura, you came to the right place, and I can definitely point you in the right direction. When selecting a weight distribution hitch, the main factor to consider is the loaded tongue weight of the trailer. Each weight distribution hitch will have specified tongue weight range, and we want to be sure your trailer will be within that range. That way you will get good effective weight distribution and sway control. Can you tell me the sub model of your 2002 Thor Tahoe? That or tell...

  • Recommended Weight Distribution For 35' Travel Trailer with 1,050LBS Tongue Weight to Prevent Sway
  • Honestly Tim, there is nothing on the B&W Continuum Weight Distribution System # BW28FR which provides any type of sway prevention. They rely on the fact that the truck will remain level which reduces trailer sway. Personally I recommend using the Equal-i-zer # EQ37140ET as this system has proven itself to be one of the best for decades. It still continues to be the system everyone tries to compete with and claims to be better than. It uses a friction type sway and camber built into the...

  • How Many Watts Does the 15,000 BTU Advent Air Low Profile RV Air Conditioner Draw?
  • Yes, it can! The 15,000 BTU Advent Air Low Profile RV Air Conditioner for Dometic Setup item # ASA68YR uses right around 3,000 watts for start up and 1,500 - 1,700 watts to run. Advent recommends a 20 amp circuit be used because of the extra draw during start up, even with the capacitor. So you have enough power to run your other electronics and appliances, I recommend the Champion 4,500-Watt Dual Fuel Portable Inverter Generator - Gas or Propane - Electric Start item # CH44FR.

  • Kayak Carrier for Channel Mount on TruXedo Elevate Rack
  • The TruXedo Elevate Truck Bed Rack System # TX96NV does have channels in the top of the crossbars. The Malone MegaWing # MPG207 you were looking at clamps on and only fits crossbars up to 3-1/2" wide so it wouldn't work with the ladder rack. For a saddle style carrier like this that would work well for a regular or fishing kayak I recommend the Lockrack Adjustable XL Watersport Carrier # LR54FR. This comes with T-bolt hardware that will allow you to install it on the crossbar channels....

  • Is There a Roof Rack For 2019 Toyota RAV4 With Flush Side Rails
  • Hi Ben, Since your 2019 Toyota RAV4 doesn't have the raised side rails, it should have flush-mounted rails, and I have added a photo below that a customer was nice enough to send in which shows a flush side rail and what your RAV4 should have. If it does, there is indeed a roof rack you can use, from Rhino-Rack, that consists of the following parts: - Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA126B-2 - RCH Legs # RRRCH4 - Custom RCP Fit Kit # RR42SV Not only does this fit your RAV4 with...

  • 2 Bike Rack that Can be Used at Rear of Motorhome
  • Hey Scott, we don't have any hitch mounted kayak carrier solutions so the best option would probably be to go with just a two bike rack that is motorhome approved like the Hollywood Racks Trail Rider part # HR2000Z.

  • Roof Rack and Kayak Carrier Recommendation for 2024 Subaru Forester with Raised Roof Rails
  • Hey Dimitri, so your best option would be a roof rack with longer crossbars like the Malone part # MAL84AR that fits the raised rails on the roof of your 2024 Subaru Forester. This will give you crossbars that are 58 inches long. Then to carry each of the kayaks you could use the LockRack Surf Ski Carrier part # LR28FR which can attach to the top channel of the Malone rack and you'd be set. You'd need two of these racks.

  • Is It Possible To Replace/Upgrade The Thermostat In A 2015 Cruise Lite 26'
  • Hello Wayne. It may be possible to replace the thermostat in your 2015 Cruise Lite. Replacement thermostats are generally brand specific to the AC unit, so I will need to know what brand/model of AC you currently have in your camper. For example, the Replacement Single Zone Thermostat # DMC79FR will work with the Dometic brand RV Air Conditioners. If this is not exactly what you have, feel free to drop that info in the comments below and I am happy to make a recommendation.

  • Best Air Bag Kit And Compressor For A 2022 GMC 3500
  • Hello Joseph. Since you will be towing a 5th wheel, and hauling a truck bed camper, I highly recommend going with an extreme duty air bag kit with a dual path compressor system. For the Air Bag Kit, I recommend the Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label Extreme Duty Air Helper Springs # F2709. This is the 7,500 lb capacity kit which is ideal for heavier, more constant loads like a truck bed camper. They can be adjusted from 5 to 150 PSI, so you will be able to fine-tune your suspension to suit...

  • What Is The Smallest AC Unit For Adding AC System To A Cargo Trailer/Camper
  • Hello Tyson. The smallest AC unit we offer is the Advent Air Low Profile RV Air Conditioner and this will be a great option for you. Since this is a smaller trailer you can definitely get away with a 13,500 BTU unit. These AC units require the roof to be between 2-1/2" and 5" thick, so please do keep that in mind during your build. For a complete AC system I recommend the following: - Advent Air Low Profile RV Air Conditioner - 13,500 Btu - White # ADV79FR - Air Distribution Box w/ Built-In...

  • Recommended Replacement For A Brake Buddy Classic 3 Supplemental Braking System
  • When it comes to cost prices do fluctuate but at this time the lower end of the spectrum is going to be the Brake Buddy Classic 3 # HM39494 and then the Select 3 # HM39524. From there is the Roadmaster Even Brake # RM-9400 and then the Blue Ox Patriot # BLU37TR. Out of these options I personally prefer the Select 3 # HM39524 because you get a remote that allows you to adjust your brake settings on the go without having to leave the cab of the motorhome. With the Brake Buddy systems each...

  • Is A Load Range G Tire More Durable Than An E Range Tire?
  • Hey Mike thanks for your question. The short answer is yes, a higher rated tire like an F or G is going to be more durable or bulletproof than an E rated tire. The Load range G tires for example the Provider ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire # TTWPRG235R16 has a 14 ply rating and is rated for 4,400 lbs at 110 psi. This means it has more layers of belt/cord than a 10 ply E rated tire, so they are able to bear more weight and hold more pressure. Assuming your fifth wheel is a tandem axle,...

  • Best Malone Roof Rack And Kayak Carrier For A 2019 Jeep Renegade Trailhawk With Factory Raised Rails
  • Hello Karl, you came to the right place. As far as the Malone roof rack for the 2019 Jeep Renegade Trailhawk with the factory installed side rails, I recommend going with the 65" Airflow2 Roof Rack. We have them available in silver # MPG217 and in black # MAL24AR. I like the longer 65" bars mainly because it will give you more space for your gear. I am not sure how many or what kind of kayaks you will be carrying, but you could easily two or possible 3 kayaks on a 65" bar, provided you...

  • SumoSprings and Sway Bar For a Thor Compass On 2018 Ford Transit 350HD Chassis
  • Yes, I always prefer to also install the Front # CSS-1195F with the Rear # SSR-121-54 SumoSprings on your Thor Compass with the 2018 Ford Transit 350 HD chassis. The combination will greatly improve your ride quality and reduce the amount of sag the chassis will have due to the additional weight. We do offer the Hellwig Adjustable Rear Anti-Sway Bar # HE44YR for your Transit chassis. This is the only currently available sway bar I can find. The 1-3/8" chromoly steel bar is going to be...

You will need the following: Front Sway Bar - # RM-1139-176 Rear Sway Bar- # RM-1139-147 Steering Stabilizer # RM47MR The front sway bar will require some drilling, but the rear sway bar and steering stabilizer will be no-drill.

  • How to Minimize Trailer Movement While Towing with a 2016 Ram 1500
  • There are a handful of things to look at with your towing setup, but the first and most important is to make sure you're using a weight distribution system with your towing setup. A weight distribution system will help keep your towing rig level as well as keep the trailer from swaying back and forth so the right one should take a lot of the movement you're feeling out of the equation. A good solid choice is the Blue Ox TrackPro Weight Distribution w/ Sway Control # BLU47FR which has a...
