  • The grease seal 010-036-00 that you mentioned is our part number # RG06-070 but then for the exact matching oil bath seal with same dimensions you'd want the part # 10-63.

  • Gen-Y Torsion Ball Mount or Shocker Hitch For 3 Inch Hitch Receiver
  • Between the Shocker Hitch and Gen-Y Torsion ball mount, I recommend the Gen-Y. Its rubber torsion arms are going to absorb road shock naturally due to its design, while the Shocker Hitch requires constant maintenance that isn't needed with the Gen-Y. It will improve the ride of your trailer substantially without the added work of maintaining an air bag, and because it the entire ball mount is designed to absorb shock, there isn't going to be stress/fatigue on it like there is on straight...

  • Brake Controller Recommendation for 2018 Holiday Rambler Endevor 40G
  • The best electric brake controller in my opinion is the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195. This brake controller is a proportional brake controller allowing your trailer brakes to be applied in direct proportion of intensity and timing as you hit the brake pedal in your Freightliner. This controller has an LCD screen that allows you to take code deciphering out of the equation. It will allow your to see at a glance what is going on with your system. This controller is customizable and has 3 preset...

  • Determining if Solera Slide-Topper Can be Installed on Slide-Out with Electric Awning
  • It sounds like you are asking if a Solera Slide-Topper like the 12.5' # LCV000177334 that you were looking at can be installed on your Grand Design trailer that features an electric awning already in place. Just let me know if that is not the case. There are a few possible styles and mounting positions of electric awnings that are used on slide-outs so it will really just be a matter of comparing where your awning is attached to the mounting location of our Slide-Toppers. I have attached...

  • How to Put P3 Brake Controller into Electric Over Hydraulic Mode
  • Is your controller in hydraulic mode? Sounds like it may not be based on what you described. The P3 part # 90195 is compatible as-is with electric over hydraulic brake actuators like the Hydrastart # HBA16 but it has to be put in "hydraulic mode"

  • Recommended Steering Stabilizer For 2010 Gulfstream Caribbean 35A on Freightliner XC Chassis
  • The Roadmaster RSSP30 you referenced is not compatible with a Freighliner XC chassis. It is designed for the Workhorse P Series Chassis and Chevy/GMC chassis. I do however have an solution for you that is a confirmed fit. For your 2010 Gulfstream Carribean 35A on Freightliner XC chassis, I recommend the Roadmaster Reflex Steering Stabilizer with Mounting Brackets for Class A Motor Homes # RM-RBK18-RSSA. This stabilizer uses a steel spring that is designed to bring you back to neutral...

  • The easiest to install brake controller you could use with your 2012 Freightliner Cascadia 125 would be the Curt Echo Mobile part # C51180 which only needs to plug into an active 7-way and it's ready to be used once synced to a smart phone.

  • 2016 Newmar Ventana Trailer Brake Controller For Existing 7-Way Trailer Connector
  • For your 2016 Newmar Ventana with the Freightliner XC chassis, the Prodigy P3 # 90195 you asked from is an excellent choice with easy to use features and no codes to decipher. Because you have the 7-way if it came from the factory you would simply use the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter for Electric Brake Controllers # 3027-P.

  • High Capacity Multi-Fit Hitch Recommendation for a 2008 Itasca Sunrise IFF32H
  • We have some multi-fit hitches available that could work for your 2008 Itasca Sunrise IFF32H class-A motorhome but we don't have any custom fit hitches that would bolt right up. The Multi-Fit hitch part # 41990 could work well for you. This hitch has a 16k capacity requires either the 7 inch drop brackets part # 4907 or the 16 inch brackets part # 4916. You would need to measure from the frame down on your vehicle to determine which brackets would be the best fit for you.

  • Correct Hitch for 2019 Freightliner Sprinter 3500
  • The correct hitch for your 2019 Freightliner Sprinter 3500 depends on the wheelbase and bumper. To keep it simple I have two options for you where the only difference is the bumper style. -Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75549 (144" or 170" wheelbase with standard bumper) -Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75601 (144" or 170" wheelbase with factory step bumper) You will also need to know the outside to outside frame measurement. If it is 30-3/8" then there are...

  • Can a RV with Air Brakes Have an Electric Brake Controller Installed
  • That's actually what we recommend the most for people towing trailers with electric brakes that have tow vehicles with air brakes. Installing a P2 part # 90885 will allow you to totally bypass having to interface with the air system and will work very well. Hardwiring a brake controller isn't too difficult. It basically is just a matter of running a few wires. One to the positive post of the battery, one to the ground, one to the trailer connector, and then one to the stoplight circuit. I...

  • How Would Brake Controller Install in 2016 Seneca 37TS Motorhome
  • I looked and was not able to find any trailer wiring or brake controller wiring for your 2016 Seneca 37ts motorhome which is built on a Freightliner M2 chassis. You will need to start with a 4-way. For that you would want the # C59496. This will be the base of the wiring setup to control the lighting of the trailer you plan to tow. From there you would need to convert the 4-way to a 7-way so that you can install the brake controller. For that you will want the Brake Controller Install...

  • Can 7-Way Be Added to Freightliner Semi Truck
  • We can help with a basic 7-way and wiring but we do not have anything that's going to actuate ABS brakes. You can hardwire in a 7-Way, # HM47210 though. For this 7-Way the white wire is ground, yellow is left turn signal and brake lights, green is right turn signal and brake lights, brown is the tail light wire, red is auxiliary power, blue is output to electric brakes, and purple is reverse lights. If the turn signals and brake lights are not combined on the same circuits then instead...

  • Recommendation to Add Stability to Front of 2018 Freightliner M2 106 Chassis with 10K Axles
  • I do have a great option for you but we do not have a standard front sway bar available for your Freightliner M2 chassis with the 10,000 pound front axle. What you can use at the front that will still really help with keeping the RV in line and minimizing wander is the Roadmaster TruTrac # RM-TRAC-FM2. This Trac Rod essentially braces the axle to prevent jarring and will control any of that excessive side play during travel. It will install using existing holes in the chassis' frame so...

  • Recommended Steering Stabilizer for a 2015 Thor Palazzo on a Freightliner RV Chassis
  • I suggest installing the Roadmaster Reflex Steering Stabilizer # RM-RBK18-RSSA on your 2015 Thor Palazzo. This is a confirmed fit for your Freightliner Chassis and will positively impact steering control during adverse conditions. Staying in control during road edging and crosswinds will now be a breeze. Road fatigue during long trips will be dramatically reduced as well. Be sure to maintain proper air pressure in all tires to maximize steering stability also. This steering stabilizer...
