Expert Answers about Coachmen Chaparral Fifth Wheel


  • Will Load Range G Tires Fit a 2018 Coachmen Chaparral 371MBRB?
  • From what I could find out about the 2018 Coachmen Chaparral 371MBRB, they came equipped with 16 inch wheels. With that being said, the Taskmaster Provider ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range G # TTWPRG235R16 will only be slightly larger than lower load range tires.

  • Is My 2021 Coachmen Chaparral 25RE 5TH Wheel Camper Pre-Wired For a Furrion Vision S Camera System?
  • It does appear your 2021 Coachmen Chaparral 25RE is prewired for the Furrion Vision S Wireless RV Backup Camera System # FOS43TASF. I do warn as I have often seen it before to setup the connection in your vehicle by connecting the camera to the outlet on the monitor charge cable. This will allow you to more easily pair the units together. Also your trailers running lights are what provide power to the monitor so make sure they are one by switching your headlights on. And finally if the...

  • Slide Out Awnings For Coachmen Chaparral 392MBL
  • It's a very wise idea to invest in toppers that will protect your slide-out and all of its hardware while the slide is extended. A good rule of thumb with every topper is to have a few inches on either side covered as well as the slide-out itself, as long as there isn't some sort of clearance issue with another constructed part of the camper's exterior. This is to ensure all of the seals and track hardware is fully protected, without any gaps around the top corners. For your larger two...

  • Replacing Valterra Valve with LaSalle Bristol Cable-Actuated RV Waste Valve
  • What I think you are asking is if you can replace within a current system, a valve assembly of one manufacturer with that of another. Yes, the fitment of valve assemblies is industry standard in dimensions. A Valterra 3" can be replaced with a LaSalle Bristol such as the # 34466N4AB72GMA. If you are asking about interchanging individual components within the assembly, we cannot guarantee fitment within that exchange.

  • Is Longer Valterra Sewer Hose Carrier Needed
  • No you aren't missing anything; if the 34" to 60" Valterra RV Sewer Hose Carrier # A04-3460 doesn't have the proper length for your RV, then you will need to go with the longer option. There isn't an 8 foot carrier, but there is one that is close, the adjustable 50" to 94" Valterra RV Sewer Hose Carrier # A04-5094. I have added links below to a pair of video reviews for you to check out as well if you'd like to take a look.

  • Will Lippert Ground Control 3.0 LC675817 Loose Zero Point Calibration When Battery Is Disconnected
  • With the battery of of your trailer disconnected for the off-season the Lippert Ground Control 3.0 # LC675817 will loose the zero point calibration so you will need to reconfigure it before taking the trailer on the first trip of the new season. This is also the case if your battery goes dead or gets low the zero point calibration could be lost and need to be reconfigured. I would just add reconfiguring the system to your beginning of season checklist so that you do not forget. I included...

  • Recommended Upgraded Motor for 5th Wheel Landing Gear
  • Though I was unable to find out anything about your current 12534 motor, we may still have a more heavy duty option available for you. The Lippert HD 6,500 lb Motor # LC196308 will fit the standard gearbox that is on most landing gear, like the # LC276602, but with it rated up to 6,500 pounds, it will most likely be more heavy duty than what came standard on your landing gear. However, this will be the highest rated motor that we currently carry. If your current motor is also rated up...

  • Troubleshooting Rear Dragging On A 2017 Coachmen Chaparral 5th Wheel When Reversing Uphill
  • You can mount the Ultra-Fab Skid Wheels for Low-Profile RVs up to 30' Long - 4" Diameter - Qty 2 Item # UF48-979011 to the rear end of the frame of your 2017 Coachmen Chaparral Fifth Wheel or to the hitch if you have one. I would not mount these to the bumper as most bumpers are not reinforced and able to handle any weight strain. If you have underslung axles you could flip a double-eyed leaf spring suspension over them to raise the rear of your trailer a bit to also help eliminate the...

  • Can the SM Arnold Waterblade be Used to Apply a PVC Roof Membrane
  • While the SM Arnold Waterblade part # 38125-926 can be used to apply a PVC roof membrane it isn't very stiff so this would be best used for small detail areas rather than the entirety of the membrane. For the larger areas I really like a stiffer shower style squeegee that you can seen in the video below at the 9:50 mark. This will allow you to get it pressed down more evenly.

  • Is There Resource For Indicating Bumper Capacity on 2019 Chaparral For Bumper Cargo Carrier e83YR
  • Good question, and there isn't an online resource that I was able to find so there are a couple of things you can do to find out the bumper capacity on your 2019 Chaparral so you can safely mount the cargo carrier you asked about, which is the following part number: - 24x64 etrailer Cargo Carrier for RV Bumper # e83YR The first and easiest is to check and see if there is a sticker or placard on the bumper indicating the capacity; this is somewhat common and is often on the back of the...

  • Is There A RV Waste Valve For Grey Water Tank That Has A 36 Inch Long Cable And Fits A 2 Inch Pipe?
  • The closest I was able to find to what you need for your 2" valve on your grey tank, is the: -LaSalle Bristol Cable-Actuated RV Waste Valve for Gray Water Tank # 34466N11AB36GM. This cable actuated waste valve is American made, has a 36" pull cable like you mentioned you needed, however, it is designed to work on 1-1/2" piping. I took a look, and we unfortunately do not carry a cable actuated waste valve for your grey tank that matches the 2" pipe you have, and has the 36" long cable...

  • Replacement Ladder for a 2019 Coachman Chaparral 30bhs

It is also an aluminum ladder but it is silver in color. The Stromberg Carlson ladder would be a closer replacement with out having to get a factory ladder. The mounting locations for the feet on the roof are 12" center on center....

  • Dimensions Of Base For Demco Recon Gooseneck-to-5th Wheel Adapter DM8550045
  • The base of the Demco Recon Gooseneck-to-5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter - Single Jaw - 21,000 lbs # DM8550045 you were looking at is 30" wide and 28" long, and 7-1/2" tall as you can see in the included diagram. The opening is 3-1/4" square and will only work with the Demco Recon Head Unit. You will not be able to use it with a square gooseneck ball as that is not what it was designed or tested for, and attempting to do would void the warranty of the adapter. I included a video of the...

  • Troubleshooting MaxxAir Roof Vent that Beeps Then Stops Working
  • Acccording to MaxxAir, you'll want to remove power from the MaxxAir # MA00-04000K fan for a minute or two, then reconnect to reboot the circuit board. In the vast majority of instances, this will fix the problem. You should also check that the fan is receiving 12 volt power and that the rain sensor isn't wet.

  • Is There Version of MaxxFan RV Roof Vent that Has Remote Control
  • I wish that was possible but there isn't a way to wire the MaxxFan so that it would power on to last used settings. There isn't a remote that works with this either. There is a similar version of this that does have a remote control with the MaxxFan RV Roof Vent part # MA00-07500K which would require you to remove what you have now. This also has a power lid feature as well.
