  • Can Tongue Weight Capacity Be Added to Vehicle by Using Coil SumoSprings Custom Helper Springs

  • Easiest Tow Dollies To Maneuver When Unloaded
  • The Demco Kar Kaddy X Tow Dolly # DM9713093 is our lightest tow dolly at only 510lbs. This would be the easiest to manuver in open areas and it has a tongue jack with a caster wheel. For smaller areas the Demco Kar Kaddy SS Tow Dolly # DM9713045 may be the better option as when folded it is only 67" long versus the X above at 147" long. Be sure to verify with your state laws to determine if additional Tow Lights # C6304 are required.

  • Does Thule The Stacker Really Have a 10 Foot Limit for Kayak Length?
  • Your skepticisim is understandable but this question has come up before and Thule has said that the reason the Thule The Stacker # TH830 can only handle kayaks which are 10 feet or less is because longer kayaks are vulnerable to damage with this carrier because it depends too greatly on the roof rack to remain stable.

  • Backspacing and Offset of Dextar Trailer Mini Mod Rim AM20757
  • The Dexstar trailer rim part # AM20757 (like most trailer wheels), has a zero offset which means that it has a backspacing of 3-1/2 inches. Trailer rims almost always have zero offsets to better handle the vertical load that they typically take. Backspacing is determined by taking the width of the rim, adding one inch for the lip of the rim, and then dividing by 2. This rim is 6 inches wide so 7/2 equals 3-1/2 inches.

  • Diameter of Trim for the Valterra Deadbolt Lock
  • The trim pieces (also called an escutcheon) for the Valterra Deadbolt Lock # L32CS3008 have a 2-1/2" diameter.

If you need something larger I recommend...

  • How Much Does Blue Ox Base Plate Kit BX1689 Weigh?
  • The Blue Ox Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # BX1689 you were looking at weighs in at 53lbs and includes all of the hardware required for the installation. Given you order the base plate kit by itself it should ship in a box that measures roughly 47" x 19" x 8". Ordering it with other products may cause a larger box to be used to condense the number of boxes needed. I included a video of the # BX1689 being installed for you to take a look at.
