  • Can the B&W Patriot Slider Be Used W/ a 2022 Chevy Silverado With OEM Pucks
  • Nate, the B&W Patriot Slider hitch installs in a set of slots that are wider than what the # DM6333 offers. Normally fifth wheel rails have three sets of slots but these only have the two. So, to use a B&W Slider hitch with your 2022 Silverado you would need to use the Companion # BWRVK3775.

  • Recommended Weld-On Replacement For An Atwood 82541 Surge Brake Actuator
  • Hi Doug, If the tongue really is C-Channel and not a box the you'd likely need to first weld a piece of metal to fill in the gap on the open end for the new actuator to weld onto. You could go with an actuator like the Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator w Electric Lockout # DX63FR. You'd weld this to the top of the channel, but there aren't welding instructions included. This actuator has a 7,500lb capacity, fits a 2" hitch ball, and comes with an electric reverse lockout solenoid so...

  • Recommended Complete Flat Towing Setup for a 2023 Chevrolet Traverse W/ Lower Active Shutters
  • Hey Marty, you can't go wrong with either and they basically do the exact same thing, so if it were up to me I'd go with the Demco Air Force One # SM99243. They (Demco) have a pretty good track record with this system, and a lot of people have used this and been very satisfied with it. Alright with that out of the way, you're still going to need: -A base plate kit ; Since you have active shutters your only option is the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BLU63CR, not a bad choice by any means and...

  • Tonneau Cover for 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500 6-1/2 ft Bed
  • Hey Richard, so in 2015 Chevy made their Silverado 1500 bed lengths 5-1/2 foot, 6-1/2 foot, and 8 foot. I would assume if you are measuring 7 foot what you have is actually the 6-1/2 foot which we do have tonneau covers for. You can see them all at the attached link on this page. Our most popular option is the TruXedo Sentry CT hard roll up cover part # TX1572016.

  • Do Diodes of Roadmaster Tow Bar Lighting Kits Need to be Sealed
  • Hey Ron, so the diodes of the Roadmaster diode kit part # RM-15267 would not need to be waterproofed as they are sealed. You would just need to use your best judgment when mounting them so that they are out of the way of the weather as much as reasonably possible. As far as using a wire loom I would say that's a solid idea. I think at worst it just ta little extra install time but it would help protect the wiring.

  • Where Does The 4th Wire on a 4-Wire Logic Module Connect To a Ground?
  • A ground connection is a ground connection as long as it grounds to the negative terminal on your 2016 Chevrolet Silverado it should not matter where it connects. I would still reach out to the manufacturer for your specific logic module as ours # PP20-702 does not require a ground wire. The ground wire for your topper light will still need to ground to the chassis so they all end up with the same connection to the light or the chassis.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch For A 2022 Chevy Silverado 2500 With OEM Puck System
  • Since you have a shorter bed you'll want to go with a sliding fifth wheel hitch to give yourself some extra turning clearance during tight turns. You'll also need to know the GVWR of the trailer to choose the correct capacity hitch. The Curt A16 Slider # C16521 would be a good option if your trailer has a GVWR less than it's 16,000lb capacity, but would require a rail adapter # C88KR to connect to your puck system. If you need something with a bit more capacity then I recommend going...

  • Is There A Transfer Switch Available For 50 Amp Service And A 30 Amp Generator
  • The transfer switches that we currently offer are either rated for 30 amp or 50 amp service and can't function properly if wired to a different amperage rating. For example, if your motorhome had 50 amp service and you installed the Furrion Automatic Transfer Switch # F50ATS and then wired a 30 amp generator to it, it wouldn't sense the generator since it's not putting out 50 amps for it to kick the switch over. The only option would be to plug the shore power cord into the generator using...
