  • Replacement Grease Seal for Lippert 4400 lb Axle
  • The grease seals for the hubs on Lippert's 4,400 lb trailer axles are the same grease seals used on 3,500 lb axles, and you can get either a pair of seals or just one seal, depending on how many you are looking for: 2: Grease Seals # RG06-050 1: Grease Seal # 58846

  • Recommended Sidewinder Pin Box to Replace a Curt Rota Flex 1621
  • Yes, you can replace a Curt Rota-Flex 1621 Pin Box item # LC328329 with a rotating turret. Since you have a 2021 Ram 3500 w/ Ramboxes this is the only way you will be able to tow a 5th wheel trailer. To add a rotating pin box to your 2022 CrossRoads Aire CR32BH, I recommend the Reese Sidewinder 5th Wheel King Pin with Rotating Turret item # RP34FR. The Reese Sidewinder fits both the Lippert 1621 an 1621HD pin box. Not all 5th wheel hitches are compatible with a rotating pin box. If your...

  • Replacement Adjuster Plugs for Dexter Electric Brake Assemblies
  • Yes, to replace the adjuster plugs on Dexter Electric Brake Assemblies like the 10" # K23-463-00 that you were looking at you just need the part # BP10-220. These plugs can be used on all of the common electric brake sizes (7 inch, 10 inch, and 12 inch). This includes 4 adjuster plugs. I have attached a short video review that you can check out as well.

  • Would Valterra RV Rubber Roof Cleaner # V88548 Cause Streaks on Side of RV
  • The Valterra RV Rubber Roof Cleaner # V88548 is not known for leaving streaks on the sides of RVs but I would recommend rinsing any of it that would run off the sides of the RV just to prevent the risk of it happening.

  • Recommended Cushioned Equalizer Replacement Options For Factory Equalizer 6" Wide and 4" Tall
  • I understand your worry Tom, and I have a couple recommendations. First is the MORryde ALLTREK 4000 Shock Absorbing Equalizers # MR89DR which has a height of 4-1/2" for the mounting bolts. This is also 6-1/2" in width like the shorter Equalizer # MR87ZR and don't worry the additional width as the shackle straps will accommodate for the difference. If you chose either the shorter MORryde or Road Armor # LC696740 you may be able to switch to a shorter shackle strap. If you have the longer...

  • Will The Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # 8-201-5 Allow for a 15" Wheel?
  • Absolutely Tom, the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # 8-201-5 you found will allow you to use a 15" wheel. I will say you will want to ensure your wheels are trailer specific wheels as I have seen issues trouble when some try to use automobile wheels with large amounts of offset.

  • Determining The Correct Landing Gears For A 2018 Crossroads Cruiser Aire 25rl Fifth Wheel Trailer
  • The dry weight I'm seeing for a 2018 CrossRoads Cruiser Aire Fifth Wheel trailer is roughly 8,000lbs so you'd be more than fine with the etrailer Landing Gear Set # RVLG-8000 you were looking at. Landing gears are only supporting a fraction of the weight we the majority of the weight resting on the axles/wheels of the trailer. Another important aspect to consider is the weld stop measurements so that the installation can be a more direct replacement so you don't have to do any additional...

  • Can Suspension Wet Bolts Be Used with Both Nylon and Bronze Bushings
  • You are correct that wet suspension bolts like # LC126238 are usually used along with bronze bushings for the longest possible service life but using them with nylon bushings is permissible. If standard bolts like # 166081 were to be replaced with wet bolts it would be fine to continue using the existing nylon bushings (for convenience) but in an all new installation bronze bushings would be preferred.

  • Do Self Adjusting Trailer Brakes Require Initial Adjustment
  • Self adjusting brake assemblies like the part # AKEBRK-35-SA do not require initial adjustment but you'll need to apply the brakes several times while moving slowly to allow them to self adjust to the correct tension. They will feel pretty weak at first until they reach the correct adjustment. So the easy solution for you would be to take out the trailer and while travelling slowly reach down and grab the manual override lever of the controller several times and you'll feel the brakes start...

  • Replacement Hub/Drum And Brakes For a 2018 CrossRoads Cruiser Aire 28RD With Lippert 4.4K Axles
  • I understand your confusion Tom, as your LCI4.4K axles are most likely going to have the 10" Lippert Electric Trailer Brakes # LC66WD. Lippert bases their 4.4K axle on a 3,500lb axle platform while most other manufacturers base it on a larger 3" axle tube with stronger components. This is why you are seeing the 12" brake option and as RV manufacturers often change change parts on trailers based on what is available and cost this is why you will see 2 of the same trailers with different...

  • How to Determine the Correct Replacement Follow Leg for a 5th Wheel Leveling System
  • We most likely have a follow leg that will work for your landing gear. But unfortunately, there isn't any database or anything to tell me what landing gear you currently have. The Replacement Follow Jack w/ Drop Leg # LG-179014 works with Stromberg Carlson models LG-1, LG-3, and LG-183708 and most landing gear sets, including Atwood, Venture, and Lippert models. To verify this will work with your landing gear, you will need to measure the distance between the bracket stops on your existing...

  • Pneumatic Grease Gun to Grease Wheel Hubs
  • Sounds like you're using a pneumatic grease gun. I'd be leery of using a pneumatic gun to grease my wheel bearings, as it's easy enough to overfill them with a manual gun and blow out the grease seals which means you'll need to tear down the hub to replace the seal. You'd be best served by taking the cautious route and filling the hubs manually. A product like the # ALL940798 you'd looked at would work perfectly.

  • What Is Included with the Replacement Black Door for 6-Gallon Atwood Water Heater
  • The Replacement Black Door for 6-Gallon Atwood Water Heater part # AT91507 does not come with any pins/hardware to attach it to the water heater. It is designed to reuse the pins/hardware that hold the existing door on. If you need these then your only option would be to either take a trip to the hardware store or your local salvage yard as we do not offer these separately outside of a new unit.
