  • Front Mount Hitch Receiver Recommendation for a 2018 Ford F-250 Super Duty
  • The crosstube on the Draw-Tite # 65076 and Curt # C31078 front hitch receivers for your 2018 Ford F-250 Super Duty are at different locations than the mounting brackets connected to them. To really determine where the hitch pin hole will be we need to measure where it's at in relation to a corresponding mounting bolt hole. For your application you'll want to go with the Draw-Tite hitch which has the hitch pin hole 4-1/2" in front of the forwardmost mounting hole (see attached). I wasn't...

  • How to Connect the Third Brake Light on a Camper Topper
  • Thanks for the picture! The 3rd Brake Light Logic Module item # PP20-702 you were looking at is exactly what you need to activate a third brake light on your 2022 Ford F-150's Overland camper topper. Once connected, this module allows the third brake light to illuminate separately from the turn signals. Without this module the third brake light would blink when the turn signals are illuminated. I attached a wiring diagram below which shows how to wire this module into your F-150's tail...

  • Is The Blue Ox TrackPro Weight Distribution Adjustable For 350-400LBS of Tongue Weight?
  • The Spring Bars # BLU82FR for the Blue Ox TrackPro Weight Distribution # BLU36FR is what gives you the tongue weight range of 200-600lbs. The adjustment holes for the ball mount itself are only to help you level the trailer. There are bolt holes on the L-Brackets # BLU72QR for the trailer which will allow you to increase or decrease the amount of tension on the bars. These are typically only ever used in one mounting position. Personally I have never been a fan of the Blue Ox weight distribution...

  • Locks For Roadmaster D-Ring Tow Bar Adapters That Will Fit 1-1/2" of Clearance Next To D-Ring
  • I recommend using the Master Lock 1-9/16" Wide Solid Brass Body Padlock # ML140DLH with the Hitch Pin # RM-910044 for the Roadmaster D-Ring Adapters # RM-035-1. The locks have a 1/4" diameter that will fit inside the Roadmaster pin. This will be much easier to fit with the tow bars on your d-ring bumper connections. The InfiniteRule Locking Pins # IR44FR will be difficult to position in the pin with the tow bar taking up the narrow 1-1/2" measurement you have. We currently do not have...

  • Weight Rating of Roadmaster 68 Safety Cables
  • I'm not 100 percent certain if you are asking what the rating is or stating what the rating is for a cable, but the bottom line is that the Roadmaster 68" Single Hook, Coiled Safety Cables # RM-643 are rated for 6,000 lbs each, but that does not mean two of them give you a 12,000 lb capacity because if one were to break the capacity is 6,000 lbs and that is what the rating is for. I have added a link to a video review of these cables for you as well as a link to our entire selection of...

  • Weight Distribution System for Airstream that Weighs 9,500 lb
  • The Reese Strait Line system part # RP66084 would work well for a trailer like your Airstream that weighs 9,500 lbs. This has a tongue weight range of 600-1,200 lbs and has best sway control at fight sway before it starts. Typically a trailer's tongue weight is 10-15 percent of the total trailer weight this would work great or what you have.

  • How Thick Are the Jaws On the Reese 16K 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch RP30047
  • The Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # RP30047 has dual locking jaws which are 1/2" thick. If you are looking for something beefier then I recommend the Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # C16120 which has dual interlocking jaws which are 1" thick. The Curt A16 also has a much tighter fit around the kin pin therefore less movement occurs and you receive a better ride quality. The other thing I really like about the Curt A-16 is that it has a one pin head removal system that makes...

  • What is Ideal Clearance Between 5th Wheel Trailer and Bed Rails and How to Adjust
  • So the ideal amount of clearance between the trailer overhang and the bed rails of the truck is 6 inches while the trailer is sitting as level as possible. If your trailer sits perfectly level and you currently have 5 inches you probably will be fine as long as you don't plan to travel on any extreme elevation changes. Some say that 4 to 6 inches is okay but we tend to have people shoot for 6 inches to be extra safe. But let's say you can raise the nose of your trailer up to get it level...
