  • Will the Curt Welded Weight Distribution Shanks C17123 or C17122 Reduce Trailer Hitch Capacity
  • The Curt Welded Weight Distribution Shanks part # C17123 and part # C17122 are not considered extensions, therefore the hitch would not lose capacity as a result of this but it would if the weight capacity is under that of either shank which for part # C17122 is 15,000/1,500 lbs. The shanks are made of solid steel and have a gusset for added support. Therefore, you should not be concerned about strength so long as you abide by their weight capacity.

  • Option For Malone Trailer With Higher Than 600 lb Capacity
  • Those springs will not, as they are both shorter in height and use a different size bolt than the springs on your LowMax; additionally, changing leaf springs wouldn't increase the capacity set by the manufacturer. If you wanted something with more than the 600 lb capacity of the LowMax you'd need to upgrade your trailer to something like the Malone LowBed MicroSport Trailer # MPG464-LB.

  • Are the CIPA Custom Towing Mirrors for a 2016 Ford F-150 Magnified
  • The CIPA Custom Towing Mirrors part # CM11550 which are a fit for a 2016 Ford F-150 don't have any magnification. I am not actually aware of any towing mirrors we offer with magnification, they are designed to simply extend your field of view so you can see your trailer better and what's beside it. There are some blind-spot stick-on mirrors which have magnification but that's it to the best of my knowledge. These towing mirrors are the same type of mirror used in the factory side mirror,...

  • Battery Bank Size for Effective Go Power Solar Extreme Charging System
  • I have added a cut out from the linked manual of the Go Power Solar Extreme Charging System - 570 Watt Solar Panels - 3,000 Watt Inverter Charger # 34282185 which shows a typical 12 volt battery bank set up, and the recommended battery size are 100 amp hour batteries. This system has three solar panels which are capable of charging about 120 to 130 amp hours of battery power per day.

  • Are Taskmaster ST225/75D15 Wheel/Tire Combos Balanced
  • When we receive the # TA28RR wheel/tire combos from Taskmaster they are not balanced and we are not equipped to do so here. You can certainly have them balanced if you wish, but since trailer's don't have a steer axle, it's nowhere near as crucial to have trailer tires perfectly balanced like a passenger vehicle's tires would be. For additional information about trailer tires, click the provided link.

  • Should I Paint U-Bolts to Protect Finish
  • If you are concerned about rust and corrosion, an excellent option for you is the CE Smith U-Bolt Kit for Mounting # CE23002 which comes with galvanized plates and zinc-plated hardware. The u-bolts included are also 5-1/2 inches long and 1/2 in diameter just like in the APUBR-1 kit. You can apply a coat of rust-resistant paint to the U-Bolt Kit # APUBR-1 if you want to but it's not required. In fact, most people don't because these components, while susceptible to rust, are not directly...

  • Will Air Lift Air Suspension System Raise Ride Height of 2017 Ford F-250
  • The internal jounce bumpers in the LoadLifter Ultimate air bag system # AL88399 could possibly raise the vehicle ride height a tiny bit, even when aired down, but the LoadLifter 5000 without the jounce bumper, part # AL57399 will NOT raise the vehicle ride height when aired down to the 5psi minimum, as confirmed by Air Lift. In this instance where you'd want to air down before pulling into the garage, an onboard compressor system like # AL25856 would be pretty convenient. You can add or...

  • Can I Leave the K-Source Snap & Zap Mirrors on Going Through a Car Wash
  • While the K-Source Snap & Zap Custom Towing Mirrors # KS69NQ for your 2021 Ford F-150 have a secure fit and would likely be ok going through a car wash with the mirrors folded in, we recommend that you remove the mirrors. We do not recommend going through a car wash with anything that is not permanently attached left on. The Snap & Zap mirrors do have a quick tool free installation and removal so you would be able to remove the mirrors and have them back on in seconds.

  • What Fuse Feeds The 12v Pin On The Trailer Plug Of A 2019 Ford Ranger
  • I looked up the online owners manual for a 2019 Ford Ranger. This shows the fuse for the trailer module is in spot 73 and it will be a 30 amp fuse. These newer ford trucks have a smart tow feature. So the12v power at the 7 way will only be turned on when the trailer is hooked up, your truck is turned on, the transmission in gear, the brake pedal depressed and the setting through the in dash menu is activated.

  • Can You Use 30-Amp Surge Protector on 50-Amp RV
  • It is best to match any surge protector to the service of the RV.

  • Can I Use a Brake Controller with a Trailer Connected on a Front Hitch?
  • Yes, this can be done. However, you need an additional 7-way harness # ETBC7 to activate the trailer's brakes as you go down the driveway.
