Expert Answers about Coachmen Chaparral Fifth Wheel


  • Correct Bearing Buddy Seal for CMC-PC190H20 Trailer
  • The correct Bearing Buddy seal set can be found by identifying your inner bearing and grease seal on your CMC-PC190H20 trailer. I have no way of knowing what bearings and seals are on your trailer so you will need to identify them. You can get the information off of the axle tag and find out what bearings and seals it uses from the axle manufacturer. If this information is missing, you will have to take the hubs off and either find the part number or measure using a digital caliper like...

  • Fabex 500 King Pin Box Replacement Recommendation
  • For your 2012 Coachmen Chaparral Fifth Wheel I recommend the MORryde Cushioned 5th Wheel Pin Box - Fabex 500 - 15,000 lbs Item # MR66XR if your 5th wheel has a GVWR up to 11,500 lbs. If your 5th Wheel has a GVWR of 11,501 to 14,000 lbs then I recommend the MORryde Cushioned 5th Wheel Pin Box - Fabex 500 - 15,000 lbs Item # MR76XR. Both of these pin boxes have a the same bolt pattern as your Fabex 500 but come with different weight ratings to match your 5th Wheel. I've attached a video...

  • 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.

  • Recommended Camera System For A Prewired 2021 Coachmen Chaparral 284RLS 5th Wheel Trailer
  • There isn't a guide that tells us what system was prewired into your 2021 Coachmen Chaparral 284RLS but the most common setup is Furrion. The prewiring in the back should have a cover with Furrion or Voyager on it. Furrion uses a unique "shark fin" style mount (pictured below) that you can identify the prewiring by as well. If you have Voyager you'll need the Voyager WiSight 2.0 Wireless Backup Camera System w/ Night Vision for Prewired RV - 4.3" Screen # ASA24YR or 7" monitor screen...

  • 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.

  • 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...

  • Upgraded RV Entry Steps For 5TH Wheel 40" To Floor With Only 1/8" From Bottom Of Door To Threshold
  • I recommend installing the TorkLift GlowStep Revolution Scissor Steps # TLA8004 on your 5th wheel. Due to the low threshold size and only having 1/8" from the bottom of your door to the top of the threshold you will not be able to use a fold in step like the MORryde # MR28RR. I actually prefer the TorkLift as it keeps any dirt tracked on the steps outside your 5th wheel when folded up. The steps do go all the way to the ground when you pull them out providing for a solid feel. The steps...

  • Is The Advent Air RV Air Conditioner Replacement Unit A Direct Replacement For A Dometic 936000108
  • Determining replacement of a rooftop condenser unit is really simple. All you'll need to do is remove the cover of your air distribution box to get a look at your system's controller. There will a wire harness that hangs down from the condenser unit and plugs into the controller. On some models they will also mount it inside of the condenser unit (seen in my video below) so if you don't see it in between the air distribution box and condenser then you'll need to get up on the roof and remove...
