Expert Answers about Thor Chateau Motorhome


  • Can I Fold Up the RV Rider Bike Rack When Not In Use On A 2021 Jeep Wrangler With Spare Tire?
  • The Hollwood Racks # HLY64FR is an excellent choice for most users with an RV towed Jeep Wrangler. If your jeep has a standard size spare on the back, like the one in the picture I have attached, then you can see that you will have plenty of room with the rack up or down. With the rack up you have 7-1/2" clearance from the rack to the spare. You should measure from the your reciever to the outside of your spare to make sure this will be a fit for you. The RV Rider will hold two bikes...

  • Troubleshooting A MaxxAir Fan That Shuts Down When A USB Charging Port Is Being Used
  • MaxxAir vents like the # MA00-04000K run off of 12 volt DC power and with the symptoms that you're having I suspect that the USB charging outlet is running off of 12v DC as well and is tied into the same line as the vent. When you draw power for the charger it's taking it away from the vent, causing it to shut down. A lot of manufacturers will tie smaller appliances together to make the installation easier so it's very likely that this is the case for your motorhome. Normally the vent...

  • Bike Rack That Can be Used with Bike Fenders and at Rear of Motorhome
  • The best option for your bike with fenders is the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE part # HLY84FR. It is rated for use at the rear of a motorhome like your 2019 Thor Chateau 22b, has a high weight capacity for the e-bikes need (I'm almost positive that's what you have), and since it grabs the bikes by the frame instead the fenders of your bike would not be an issue. I attached a review video for this for you to check out as well.

  • Snow Chain Recommendation for 2019 Thor Chateau 23U with Tire Size 225/75-16
  • For your 2019 Thor Chateau with the tire size 225/75-16 I would go with the Titan chains part # TC2319. These are easier to install, provide great traction, and are priced great so they would be the best all around solution for an emergency situation. Some people like to use cables for this application but they are harder to install, not much cheaper, and you only typically get one use out of them before they need to be replaced.

  • Comparing etrailer.com 3,200-Watt Generator to Champion Generator
  • The etrailer.com 3,200-Watt Portable Inverter Generator # 333-0003 that you referenced is an excellent option and you are correct regarding the manufacturer. This particular unit compares very well to the Champion generator you're looking at. Like you mentioned the lower wattage (by 200) on the etrailer.com generator shouldn't be too much of an issue and there are a couple of features on the etrailer.com generator that are actually an improvement over the Champion model. Doing some...

  • Recommended Snow Chains for 225/70R19.5 Tires on 2014 Thor Chateau Motorhome
  • The Glacier Cable Snow Tire Chains # PW2021C referenced in your question are confirmed to fit the 225/70R19.5 size tires on your 2014 Thor Chateau Class C Motorhome and they are what I recommend. I took a look at the online owner's manual for the Ford F-550 chassis that your Thor Chateau is built on and it does state to only use Class S rated tire chains, for which this set qualifies. This means they are designed to be used on vehicles like your RV that don't have a lot of room to work...

  • Determining Clearance Needed for MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent # MA00-07500K
  • The MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan # MA00-07500K referenced in your question fits a 14 inch x 14 inch RV roof opening, but the mounting flange itself measures 16-1/2 inches x 16-1/2 inches. This will refer to the footprint of the unit from inside your RV/trailer. The actual vent that will mount above the roof of the trailer measures 22-1/2 inches long and 16-1/2 inches wide. When closed it will extend 5 inches above the roof and when open it will extend 9-5/16 inches above the roof....

  • Distance From Center of Frame Hook to Hitch on Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE
  • Hi Hendrik; hopefully this rack will work for you, though I don't know where the hitch is on your motorhome or if it is recessed or sticks out past the bumper. So I can't give you the distance from the center of the closest bike to your motorhome specifically, but I can give you the distance from the center of the frame hook to the face of the hitch for the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE2 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # HR1450Z. From the center of the frame hook - which is going to be the center...

  • Do I Have to Drill Holes in My 2018 Ford E-450 Frame to Install Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar
  • Thanks for reaching back out and pointing out the video you found that in! I checked out the video you referenced about the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-147 install on a 2019 Ford E-Series Cutaway (see linked) and while Ryan did ultimately install the links back to where the factory ones were located, he only did so because he was unable to properly drill and install the links into the vertical position like the instructions called for. The sway bar will still work like this...

  • How to Determine a Compatible Entry Door Lock/Latch For a 2022 Thor Chateau Motorhome
  • In order to determine the correct lock, I would need to know the cut-out size for your entry door latch/lock. There is not any sort of database or anything for each RV. For instance the Global Link RV Entry Door Locking Latch Kit # 295-000019 fits a cut-out of 2-1/2" wide x 3-1/2" tall to 3" wide x 4" tall and doors 1-1/4" to 1-1/2" thick. There is a pretty good chance this lock will fit, but I recommend checking your cut-out size to be sure. If this does not work, please provide me with...
