Expert Answers about Coachmen


  • Recommended Stainless Steel Replacement for Offset Kitchen Sink
  • As you mentioned in your question, most of our double sinks have a standard rectangular design that don't quite match the offset shape of your existing unit. The closest stainless steel options we have to something like this is with the Patrick Distribution Offset Double Bowl Sink # 277-000077 or the Better Bath Double Bowl # LC388415, both of which feature the wider cutout on the larger side of the sink. Either option will likely require some cutting though on the counter top, as we...

  • Recommended Steering Stabilizer and Front/Rear Anti-Sway Bars for 2019 Coachmen Leprechuan
  • We'd be happy to make some recommendations for you. Anti-sway bars will further combat wander caused by crosswinds and turbulence from oncoming or passing traffic by preventing the axles from racking so they stay perpendicular to the vehicle at all times by securely tying the axle to the vehicle frame. For a rear anti-sway bar, use # RM-1139-147. For the front end, use # RM-1139-176. I've linked to install videos showing a steering stabilizer and front as well as a rear anti-sway bar...

  • Spare Tire and Wheel Recommendation for 2021 Coleman Lantern 17B Travel Trailer
  • If the center to center distance between adjacent tire mounting holes is 2-5/8 inches, you do indeed have a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern. Going with two of the Kenda Karrier # AM32181 ST215/75-14 load range C radials which carry an 81mph M speed rating should work great for you. The tire is mounted on white spoke 14x5-1/2 trailer wheel. If you click the provided links, you can see our resident tire expert Jeff run through the wheel/tire combo's features. I've also linked to a help article...

  • How To Prevent a Dead Battery on Flat Towed Vehicle
  • If you can safely disconnect the battery when towing is completely dependent on how you have your supplemental braking system powered. My suggestion is to simply install the Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Towed Vehicles, # RM-156-25. This is a very cost effective and easily installed component. while we do not have an installation video created of this product on a Honda Element, we do have a step-by-step installation video on a 2006 Honda CR-V. Please note the link below. Kit...

  • Recommended Leveling Stabilizers to Reduce Bounce When Walking in Trailer
  • It sounds like your leaf springs are not the issue and changing your springs to a higher capacity could cause a rougher ride when traveling. The bounce or sway has to do with how you set your stabilizer legs and it sounds like they are not supporting enough weight. If you still experience an annoying amount of movement after you add additional load to your stabilizer legs, then you should add additional stabilizers. If you have a slide out, this is really common and you can add a stabilizer...

  • Rear Ladder and Camera System for 2017 Coachmen Catalina
  • We don't have a custom fit for your Catalina Travel Trailer, but we do have a universal fit external ladder that is 99-1/2 inches tall that would work just fine and can be cut shorter if needed. For that you would want the part # LA-401. This ladder is also 13 inches wide. Your trailer did come with pre-wiring for a Furrion observation system so for a system that has a 5 inch display we have the part # FOS05TASF that will work great and make for a very easy install. This mounts to the...

  • Comparing Hollywood Racks E-Bike Racks for Use Behind Motorhome
  • At the rear of a trailer or RV the ride quality is very rough when compared to the ride quality at the rear of a passenger vehicle. Reason being the suspension isn't as sophisticated and there is a longer distance between the rear axle and the rear of the trailer which exaggerates the movement of the trailer when hitting bumps. Some RV setups are more rough than others which is why some of those types are called out like you noticed. Because of that only a few bike racks were designed to...

  • Weight Distribution Recommendation for Trailer that Weighs 4,000 lbs
  • All of the components you mentioned will do a great job for a towing setup for your 2017 Ford Flex and they are all linked below for you to check out but to answer your main question about weight distribution the way to do it is to base off of the loaded tongue weight of the setup. So since your trailer would be 4,000 lb you'd most likely have a tongue weight around 400 to 500 lbs so the system I would recommend is the Strait Line part # RP66082 which has a tongue weight range between...

  • Lift Kit and Equalizer Upgrades for 2016 Coachmen Apex Ultra Light 269RBSS
  • The Lippert lift kit part # LC425750 that you referenced is a single axle lift so it would not work on your 2016 Coachman Apex Ultra Light 269RBSS as it is a tandem axle trailer. For a tandem axle lift kit the part number you'd need is the # RR23QX instead. This comes with all of the hardware needed for install. If you were looking for an upgraded equalizer kit too we had the part # K71-449-00 for a standard equalizer or the part # K71-653-00 which comes with cushioned equalizers. Both...

  • Wire Gauge of Brake Magnets # AKBRKR-M12
  • The gauge of wire that the brake magnets # AKBRKR-M12 has is 14. Since you'll be connecting to 10 gauge wire you'll want to use the butt connectors designed for 10-12 gauge wire part # DW05745-10.

  • EZ Flex Equalizer Kit Recommendation for 2011 Coachman Chaparral
  • Since the distance between your current equalizer bolt holes is 8 inches the correct EZ Flex system you need is the part # K71-653-00 that you referenced. This also can work on axles that are up to 8k in capacity like you said you have so it would work well in that regard as well.

  • Weight Distribution and Sway Control Recommendation for Travel Trailer that Weigh 5,700 lb
  • The best way to pick out a weight distribution system is to base it off of the loaded tongue weight of the setup when it is loaded and ready to tow. This figure also includes the weight of any cargo behind the rear axle of the tow vehicle. I attached a help article on determining tongue weight for you to check out as well. You will want the loaded tongue weight of your setup to fall right in the middle of the tongue weight range of the system you use. For a tongue weight of 740 lbs the...

  • Recommended Hitch Receiver for Molded RV Bumper Compatibility For Bike Rack or Storage
  • For your Molded ABS bumper, you can use an RV rated trailer hitch receiver like the Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs, 22" to 72" Wide # 13703 which will mount underneath it to your frame. A receiver like this will allow you to use an RV rated bike carrier like # TH934XTR for example. I've linked the page to all the RV rated bike rack options for you. Most cargo carriers are not rated for RV use, but we do have 1! I recommend the Stromberg Carlson cargo carrier # CC-100....
