Expert Answers about Newmar


  • Can An Advent Air AC Unit Replace A Dometic Unit With No Air Distribution Box To Access
  • Since you don't have an air distribution box to remove and check the wiring you'll need to unbolt the unit from the roof and determine how the rooftop unit connects to the controller. The Advent Air # ACDOM135B comes with a 6-pin connector to plug into the controller. If your Dometic system is hardwired then you can cut the connector off and hardwire it in, but you'll void your warranty and would still need to reach out to Dometic for a wiring diagram to match up the correct wires. If you...

  • Will the Sentry Deflector for Demco Tow Bars Work With Roadmaster Tow Bars and Base Plates
  • The Sentry Deflector for Demco Tow Bars part # DM9523135 actually mounts to the base plates, not the tow bar. That said, if you have a Roadmaster Tow Bar then you likely have a Roadmaster Base Plate Kit and the Sentry Deflector for Demco Tow Bars will work if you use the Demco Sentry Deflector Adapter Kit for Roadmaster Base Plates part # DM9523027.

  • Recommended Trailer Brake Controller For A 2022 Newmar Kountry Star 4037 Motorhome
  • For your 2022 Newmar Kountry Star 4037 Motorhome I recommend the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller - 1 to 4 Axles - Proportional # 90195. There currently isn't a custom wiring harness so you will have to splice the wiring together to install this brake controller. The trailer wiring harness for your motorhome should be bound up together under the dash. Typically manufacturers will bundle the wires together and have a label hanging off them. The wiring connections from the brake...

  • Hitch Option For School Bus With 34 Inch Wide Frame
  • The only option we have for a hitch for your school bus with a 34 inch frame is a weld on hitch: - Class V Universal Weld-on Receiver Hitch and Brackets with 3" Drop # 15901 This is for frames up to 44 inches wide and gives you the drop you need as well, so it will work out very nicely.

  • Can The Blue Ox 7-Wire To 6-Wire Cable Fit Even With A Hitch Adapter Installed
  • The umbilical cord between your motorhome and towed vehicle is going to sit the same way regardless of the hitch adapter since it's plugging into the 7-way on the motorhome and 6-way on the towed vehicle. Most tow bars are roughly 4' to 5' in length so you'd have a bit of wiggle room for the Blue Ox 7-Wire to 6-Wire, Coiled Electrical Cord # BX88206 to complete its connections and still accommodate the pull to left or right when making turns.

  • Steering Stabilizer For a 2022 Newmar Bay Star On Ford F-53 V8 22,000LB GVWR Chassis
  • I recommend using the Roadmaster Exact Center Steering Stabilizer w/ Custom Brackets # RM82RR on your 2022 Newmar Bay Star 3226. This custom mounting bracket is specific Ford F-53 V8 22,000LB GVWR chassis. The Exact Center included is their heavier duty stabilizer providing you with the best steering feel. I find installing the SumoSprings Front # SSF-170-40-2 and Rear # SSR-187-54-1 with the steering stabilizer will greatly increase your comfort level while driving. These help to absorb...

  • Does Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller Work on Motorhome With Air Brakes
  • A proportional brake controller will absolutely work on a motorhome like your 2021 Newmar Dutch Star with air brakes, as it simply needs to wire into the brake light circuit (the circuit that only sees voltage when your brakes are applied). So, the actual type of brakes on your motorhome won't be a factor, which means you can use the Prodigy brake controller you mentioned: - Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller # 90195 The P3 # 90195 is a great choice because it offers consistently...

  • Bike Rack Compatibility with Motorhome While Flat Towing a 2015 Kia Soul
  • The Swagman Dispatch 2 Bike Platform Rack - 2" Hitches - Frame Mount # S44FR will be about 33 inches from the hitch pin hole to the farthest point of the rack. You will need to measure your tow bar to see how much actual clearance that will give you for turning clearance. This rack does have a shank rise of 6-1/4 inches, so that will possibly help with hood clearance as well. I recommend using a shank like the Replacement Shank for Gen-Y Adjustable Ball Mount - 2" Hitch - 10" Drop/Rise...

  • Recommended Suspension Upgrade For A 2021 Newmar Bay Star 3626 Class A Motorhome That Leans
  • Typically if your motorhome is leaning one way it just means either the manufacturer or you have it too much loaded on one side, but this could also be an indication that there's an issue with your suspension so I highly recommend everything is is in good shape and that nothing is damaged before adding on anything. Once you know your suspension is in good working order then yes, I definitely recommend installing some SumoSprings. These will give you a much smoother ride over the Timbren's...

  • Replacement Entry Door Lock For A 2022 Newmar 4037
  • Manufacturers do not list the model numbers of the entry door locks so to know if the Bauer Products Keyless Entry Motorhome Door Lock - Left Hand - 8" Wide x 5" Tall # BA46FR will work with your 2022 Newmar 4037 you'll need to remove the existing door lock and measure the cutout hole. The # BA46FR requires a cutout hole dimension of 4-1/2" tall x 4-7/8" wide and a distance from door edge of 1-1/8". If your cutout hole isn't compatible with these requirements then just reply back with...

  • Trailer Brake Controller Installation in Class A Motorhome on Workhorse W22 Chassis
  • Trailer brake controllers are not vehicle-specific so pretty much any controller could be installed in any vehicle. All controllers use the same wiring colors and connections: the white wire is ground and connects to the battery negative post; the black wire is +12V power to operate the controller and this connects to the battery + post through a 30-amp breaker; the red wire takes in the brake light switch signal (taken from the cold side of the brake light switch); and the blue wire...

  • Recommended Replacement For A Parallax 7345 Power Center
  • The Parallax 7345 has a 45 amp converter in it so the Progressive Dynamics Mighty Mini AC/DC Panel and Converter/Smart Charger - 45 Amp # PD4045KA you were looking at would be a perfect replacement for it. They'll just need to flip the small switch (pictured below) to the "LI" setting to switch the converter to lithium mode. This unit requires a cutout hole 10-3/4" long x 7-1/4" tall, so they can remove the mounting screws of their current unit to measure the cutout and see if any alterations...

  • Correct Snap Pads for Newmar Canyon Star Motorhome
  • I recommend measuring the feet on your leveling system and noting the shape of the pad. That said, it should be 9" round pads and in which case you would use the SnapPad XTRA Jack Pads for Lippert Leveling Systems part # SP54FR4. If you have a different size/shape you can select this from the list below.

  • What Effect Does Using a Hitch Extender Have Using the Hollywood Racks RV Rider Bike Rack
  • The Hollywood Racks RV Rider Bike Rack # HLY64FR is rated for RV use and will work with most RV's. The easiest way to determine your clearance would be to measure the distance from the hitch pin hole on your RV's hitch. The closest point on the Hollywood Racks RV Rider Bike Rack # HLY64FR is 12" from the center of the hitch pin hole. We have not had the chance to test the Hollywood Racks RV Rider Bike Rack # HLY64FR on a Newmar specifically. But you are correct that there are a lot of...

  • Parts Needed To Haul A Tow Dolly And Bike Rack Behind A 2021 Newmar Bay Star Motorhome
  • You would have to use a stacked receiver with a large enough rise to accommodate the bike rack sitting higher than the Kar Kaddy # DM9713093. I recommend one like the Gen-Y Adjustable 2-Ball Mount w/ Stacked Receivers # 325-GH-316. This would allow you to haul a hitch mounted bike rack as well as the tow dolly.
