  • Recommended Brake Controller Wiring Harness for 2018 THOR ACE
  • For your 2018 THOR ACE you will simply need the wiring harness # 3035-P. This harness will connect under the dash to your factory wiring near the OBD II and will directly plug into your Reese Brakeman IV Controller. I've attached a video to assist. It appears the brake controller wiring may not be fully run to the rear of your motorhome, so if you don't already have the 7-way you will need to complete your wiring using the # ETBC7 kit.

  • Track Bar vs Anti-Sway Bar For 2022 Thor Windsport 31C On F-53 Chassis
  • A track bar and anti-sway bar address different issues on a motorhome. Track bars keep your vehicle's axle in line and minimize axle side play. An anti-sway bar like the # RM25VR improves stability and balances weight transfer reducing body roll. For your 2022 Thor Windsport 31C on an F-53 chassis I recommend choosing the sway bar over a track bar. The # RM25VR is the correct choice since your GVWR is 22,000 lbs. Installation of this anti-sway bar will help reduce driver fatigue and improve...

  • Bolt Length of Hardware Kit for Double Eye Springs
  • The bolts in # LC281288 are the same as yours. They're for 1-3/4 inch wide springs with 9/16 inch eyes which is the standard. I went out and measured a bolt in the kit. The 2-5/16 inch measurement is from the head to the threads. Including the threads it's 2-7/8 inches. So you're good to go.

  • Parts Needed To Carry Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier And Tow Trailer With Motorhome
  • I have a solution for you, but the Roadmaster Spare Tire Carrier # RM-195125 you were looking at is not designed for towing a trailer. Instead I recommend using a stacked receiver ball mount like the Gen-Y Adjustable 2-Ball Mount w/ Stacked Receivers - 2" Hitch - 7-1/2" Drop/Rise - 10K # 325-GH-314. You can then use a lighter spare tire carrier like the Curt Trailer Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier # C31006 in one of the un-used receivers of the ball mount while towing your trailer. You...

  • Suspension Upgrade Recommendations for Improved Ride on 2018 Thor Windsport 29M
  • You are definitely on the right track for helping to make your ride more comfortable when traveling in your 2018 Thor Windsport 29M. The first things we recommend to upgrade are the steering stabilizer, which you've already done with part # RM-RBK22-RSSA, and the anti-sway bars. For the front we have the Bushing Kit # RM-4139-127 which is designed to upgrade an OEM 1-5/8" bar if it exists, and for the back you can use the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-146. If you happen to not...

  • Could Camco Hardwood RV Stovetop Silencer # CAM43753 be Used on 2-Burner Stove Top
  • All of the covers we offer like the Camco part # CAM43753 is designed for a burner setup that has a row in front and back like a 4-burner setup. This has the dimensions of 17" long x 19-1/2" wide x 3/4" thick. You'd have to compare what you have to this to see how well it would fit. I attached a review video for this for more info as well.

  • Does the Roadmaster Rear Sway Bar Need to Be Installed Completely Parallel to the Ground
  • When installing the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-146 you do want the trailing arms of the sway bar to be as parallel to the ground as possible. I can see what you're talking about, and they do look like they're angled slightly upwards. If you watch at the start of the videos where the road test is done, you can get a pretty good idea of what it's supposed to look like when installed. It may not be able to be installed completely level because of different components that are...

  • How To Find Replacement Water Pump for Thor Hurricane
  • The biggest thing to consider when selecting a new or replacement water pump for an RV is GPM or otherwise known as gallons per minute. You'll want to be sure the GPM rating of the new pump either matches that or exceeds that of the existing that way you don't bottleneck the system up. The fittings are all pretty standard but you may need an adapter depending on the setup. The HydroMax RV Fresh Water Pump part # P25201 for example has a 3 GPM rating. I have attached a full list of our pumps...

  • Curt Echo Wireless Brake Controller Compatibility with 2016 Thor Palazzo and Trailer Side Mount
  • The Curt Echo Mobile Trailer Brake Controller - Wireless # C51180 can be hard mounted to the trailer but it cannot have any flop or movement of the unit because it is inertia based and needs to be able to find the consistent point to monitor movement from. The direction of the controller isn't an issue so if mounted to the side frame at an angle is okay. You can use an extension like the Curt Universal 5th Wheel/Gooseneck 7-Way Extension - 7' Long # C56080 which can be shortened or coiled...

  • Comparing Timbren and SumoSprings for a 2018 Ace 30.2 Motorhome
  • Yes, the front # TFFF53B Timbren suspension enhancement are similar to the front # SSF-170-40-2 SumoSprings for your 2018 Thor ACE 30.2 Motorhome. Timbren is a little more well-known but we have received feedback from our customers that the SumoSprings offer better ride quality as they aren't as stiff. If you are comparing the rear Timbren # TFRF53A with the rear SuperSprings # SSA41 for the leaf springs then they are comparable when it comes to performance but they work slightly different.

  • Weight Capacity Of The Rhino Rack RLTF Roof Rack System.
  • If you used these # RLTF feet with the tracks # RRRTV188 and use the Heavy Duty Crossbars # RB1250 you will have 220 lbs of capacity on your roof. This is a bit more than the average roof rack system so you will be able to really fill up your bar space! You should verify that the vehicle's roof can handl that weight too though.

  • Best Suspension and Steering Upgrades For 2020 Thor Hurricane 29M Motorhome
  • To improve the suspension and steering on your 2020 Thor Hurricane 29M you can add springs in the front and back along with a steering stabilizer and anti-sway bars in the front and back. Of course, while that will get you the ultimate riding experience, you may not want to do the whole thing at once, so to start I recommend adding springs to the rear and a sway bar to the front. For the rear, I highly recommend the SumoSprings Maxim Custom Helper Springs, part # SSR-184-40-1. These are...

The 1,000 pound capacity on the front springs and the 2,800 pound weight capacity on the rear springs provide the perfect amount of support for this size RV and will do a really nice job of smoothing out your ride and reducing sway during travel.
