• Adding Trailer Brake Controller and Sway Control to a 2021 Subaru Ascent Towing a Travel Trailer
• I recommend the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller # 90195 for your 2021 Subaru Ascent. This brake controller is customizable and proportional. This means that it uses its internal inertia sensor to help adjust your braking for light or severe braking conditions. You will need a Universal Installation Kit # ETBC7 to install the brake controller and 7-way on your Ascent. The Tuson Sway Electronic Sway Control System # 335TSC-1000 will attach to the travel trailer and control...

• Available Roof Rack Option for 2022 GMC Yukon
• For the 2022 GMC Yukon we have the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Aluminum, # TH711520 in black or # TH711500 in silver, These are 60" in length and mount using the Evo Flush Rail Feet for Thule Crossbars, # TH710601 and the Fit Kit for Thule Evo Flush Roof Rack Feet, # TH95JW. I understand wanting to stay with same brand but depending on the component, most, are usable across different brands.

• Can the B&W Defender Locking Gooseneck Coupler Be locked in the Open Position?
• To leave your coupler unlatched you will need a manual locking coupler like the Bulldog Gooseneck Coupler # BD0287690300. The B&W Defender Locking Gooseneck Coupler # BWGNC4250 will only lock in the closed position. Using the manual locking coupler will make it easier for you to use with your skid steer to move around your farm.

• Troubleshooting Trailer Lights not Working With Tekonsha Prodigy RF on 2013 Porsche Cayenne
• The first thing I would do is attempt to get the Tekonsha Prodigy RF Wireless Trailer Brake Controller working on your 2013 Porsche Cayenne. I would make sure you have power on your 7-way using a circuit tester like the # PTW2993. Since it works on your friends F-350 you at least know that it is functional despite the issue with the lights. A lack of power is what would make the most sense since the remote pairing has nothing to do with the specific vehicle. If you do not have power then...

• Lift Kit Options for a 2014 Riverside Retro 130 Camper
• There are a couple of options to lift the axle of your 2014 Riverside Retro 130 camper but you will first need to identify what type of axle your camper has. You will need to determine if you have a Torflex axle or a standard round axle. Another way to identify the type of axle you have is by the sticker that is attached to the axle. If you have a #9 Torflex axle with a 2,000 lbs capacity, you will use the Torflex Lift Kit item # K71-723-01, which will provide 2-5/8" of lift. If you have...

The distance from the ground to the inside edge of the receiver tube measures 9-1/4". Since you will be towing you will also want the Curt # C56354.

• Suspension Upgrade and Towing Set Up for a 2001 Ford F-150 4WD
• I would be happy to help you set up your 2001 Ford F-150 4WD to tow your camper. I have listed the usual things you'll need, like a hitch, wiring harness, and ball mount below. If you are already set up with these items I recommend adding a set of Stability Plus Stabilizer Helper Springs item # SPS94FR.

• Solution for Replacing OEM 7-Way With EZ Connector on 2020 Toyota Tundra
• I do have a solution, but there is not an adapter that would allow you to replace the OEM connection and keep the factory look on your 2020 Tundra. Since nothing will match that cutout, I have two options that will allow you to use the EZ Connector on your truck. The first is to use the Trailer Connector Adapter # EZ94ZR. This will plug into your current 7-way and allow you to connect with your trailer's EZ Connector. However, you will either have to leave it plugged in or plug and unplug...

• Recommended Air Bags for a 2007 Dodge Ram 2500 Megacab 4WD w/ a 2 Lift

You will want to start with the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Plus Air Springs w/ Internal Bumpers item # AL89295. This system will give you a 5,000 lbs load leveling capacity to help you when you are towing or hauling a heavy load. To compensate for the 2" lift you will need to use the Air Lift Universal Air Spring Spacers for LoadLifter 5000 item # AL52420. These steel spacers go between the...

• Aluminum Adjustable Trailer Hitch Ball Mount For a 2-1/2" Receiver
• I do have an option for you as we currently only carry the 2" Shank # AM3422 and not the 2-1/2" shank 3422-25 for the Rapid Hitch Adjustable, Locking, Aluminum Ball Mount Kit # AM3400. The Fastway Self-Locking, Adjustable 2-Ball Mount # DTALBM6825 has an aluminum shank and fits into a 2-1/2" receiver. It uses an integrated hitch lock so no receiver hitch pin is required. The same key is used to secure the adjustable ball mount to the 8" drop shank.

• Will Roadmaster Comfort Ride Leaf Spring Suspension Kit Work on 7,000 lb Axles
• The Roadmaster Comfort Ride Leaf Spring Suspension Kit # RM-2460-2570 will work perfectly on the 7,000 lb axles of your Grand Design Solitude as it was specifically designed for 3" diameter axles with that rating. The # RM-2470-2580 is designed for 8,000 lb axles (3-1/2" diameter) axles as opposed to 7,000 lb axles. It is certainly natural to wonder but there isn't any additional margin required as this system meets the ratings for your axles. The Roadmaster Comfort Ride Leaf Spring Suspension...

• Replacement Tail Lights For a 2011 Venture Boat Trailer
• The Wesbar Low Profile Trailer Tail Light 403026 is the same size and type that you currently have on the drivers side of your 2011 Venture Boat Trailer. This is an incandescent light and there is the matching Passenger Side 403076.

• Upgraded 5.30x12 Tires with Higher Speed Rating for Palomino Filly Pop Up Camper
• In order to obtain a higher speed rating for your trailer I recommend using the Taskmaster 5.30R12 Radial Trailer Tire part # TT53012C which has a speed rating of 81 mph so you'll be plenty capable of traveling at highway speed. This is a radial ply tire so it's best used on highways and runs cooler while doing so. It has a class c rating suited for use up to 1,050 lbs and it has a two year warranty.

• Stereo Recommendation for 2013 Heartland 3070RL 5th Wheel with 3-Zone and Surround Sound System
• Thank you for all of the information! While we don't have any stereos designed specifically for surround sound, we do have the systems like the iRV Stereo # 292-101809 that you referenced which have 6 speaker outputs that are built for a 3-zone system (2 front, 2 middle, 2 rear) as well as subwoofer outputs. Surround sound systems tend to have their own output system so you should only need provisions for the left/right sound and the sub for your surround sound system to operate properly....

• Best 5th Wheel Cover for a 2012 Winnebago Lite Five 28FWBHS
