  • Can You Use a Trailair 5th Wheel Pin Box with a Deflated Air Bag

  • Will the Timbren Silent Ride Suspension for Tandem 7,000 lb Axles Work On a 2017 Redwood RV
  • If you have 7,000 lb, 3" diameter axles on your 2017 Redwood RV Redwood Fifth Wheel then the Timbren Silent Ride Suspension for Tandem Axle Trailers part # TSR14KT01 is correct not part # TSR7000T05. This is an excellent option to upgrade your suspension and you would never have to worry about replacing worn out leaf springs therefore making the trailer virtually maintenance free in this regard. If you don't know what your axle capacity is then all you need to do is crawl under the trailer...

  • Availability of a 5th Wheel Skirt For a 2017 Redwood
  • The Adco Storage Skirt # 290-3502 will definitely meet the length needed, but it would come up a little short for the height. No pun intended. This would technically fit, it just wouldn't make it all the way to the ground. Unfortunately, this is the only Fifth Wheel Skirt we currently offer.

  • MORryde AllTrek 4000 Equalizers and Wet Bolt Suspension Kit for a 2013 Redwood RV Redwood 5th Wheel
  • Thanks for reaching out, Bret! If your axles shifted from being located above the equalizers to below your equalizers then it sounds like replacing your bushings, equalizers, and shackle straps will fix the issue. As long as your leaf springs are in good shape you shouldn't need to swap them out either. The MORryde AllTrek 4000 Equalizers for Tandem Axle Trailers - 35" Wheelbase # MR29DR will fit your trailer spacing, and then I recommend using the MORryde Upgrade Trailer Kit to replace...

  • Will the Roadmaster Comfort Ride Leaf Spring Suspension Kit Fit a 2015 Redwood 5th Wheel
  • Though the Roadmaster Comfort Ride Leaf Spring Suspension Kit w/ Shock Absorbers - Tandem 7K Trailer Axles, part # RM-2460-2570, are not fit-guided to fit specific 5th wheels, they are designed to fit tandem 7k axles. What that means is if your 2015 Redwood 38GK has tandem axles (which it does) and those axles are 7k axles, it will fit. So, the only thing you need to do to ensure a fit is to check what your axle capacities are. They look to be 7k, but you can look on the axles for stickers...

  • Replacement 16 Inch Wheel Recommendation for Lionshead Lynx Silver Wheel with 8 Lug Pattern
  • Thanks for reaching out! It looks like we did carry that exact wheel at one point on our site but it has since been removed. I reached out to our team about it and they said our rep told us it was NLA'd (no longer available) back in May of 2021. You might be able to find a replacement but since that was a while ago you'll likely be hard pressed to find this exact wheel. For your application I recommend replacing your Lynx wheels with a wheel style that's still in production. For a similar...

  • Recommended Replacement For Dexstar # 17-293 With 16x6 8 Lug Rim
  • While searching for a replacement for your Dexstar #17-293, I found a great option that is the Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel # AM20794. It has a zero offset with 3,960 pound capacity at 110 psi. It has an 8 lug on 6-1/2 inch bolt pattern and is compatible with 1/2-20 or 9/16-18 wheel studs. Sorry to hear about your bent rim.

  • You can use the Valterra Waste Valve Body with Flexible Cable for RV Black Water Tank - 72" # TC372 to replace your 3" diameter Valterra Bladex.
