We will plan for the maximum gross trailer weight of 8,200 pounds. The dry tongue weight, 910, is right around 15 percent of the 6,300 dry weight. We can then estimate at 8,200 pounds trailer weight our tongue weight is 1,230 pounds.
Since your tongue weight will be somewhere between 910 and 1,230 pounds, Reese Strait-Line Weight Distribution system, part # RP66074, would work perfect for you. It has the Dual-Cam Sway Control System which is the best system for a larger trailer, especially... view full answer...
Your best option is going to be to go with the Reese Universal fifth wheel rail kit part # RP30035 that you referenced.
It looks like your older rails are the industry standard dimension rails that most fifth wheel rails will fit in, but we can't recommend a bracket kit for an unknown set of base rails. Especially one as old as yours. We cannot recommend them because there have been several fit issues between base rails and frame brackets between manufacturers. view full answer...
I may have an option for you, however the Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan and Remote - Powered Lift # FV807350 is not available from Fan-Tastic Vent in the Clamp-On style that you mentioned. I verified this with the manufacturer.
Your best option for this type of install is with the Fan-Tastic Vent Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan - Clamp On # FV801208. This features the same 12V fan to circulate the air in your RV but has a manual hand knob to lift and lower the dome. I have attached a short video review on... view full answer...
For an air suspension enhancement system confirmed to fit your 1995 Ford F350 whether it's a 2 wheel drive or 4 wheel drive truck you would want the Air Lift System part # AL88298.
For a compressor kit to make maintaining pressure in the bags easy you would want the # AL25592. view full answer...
It does not sound like you have all of the correct hardware because there should be bolts on both sides of both rails. I am not sure how comfortable I would be with a used installation kit so I would go ahead and pop for a new one.
Another reason to replace the install kit is if you are unsure of the brand of rails and they are not the same as the underbed brackets that attach to the frame, we do not recommend using them together. Plus you will get all new parts, installation instructions,... view full answer...
I double-checked with Curt and the gooseneck hitch part # C60723 is listed as a fit for the long and short bed versions of the 1996 and 1997 Ford F-250 so it would work well for you. It also fits with or without overload springs as well. view full answer...
The distance from the bottom of the frame to the top of the 2" receiver of the B&W Heavy-Duty Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class V - 2" # BWHDRH25198 you were looking at is 7-3/8" as shown in the included diagram.
I included a video of the # BWHDRH25198 for you to take a look at. view full answer...
There are a few scenarios here. If you have a factory-installed 4-way connector then that makes a difference down the road when installing a brake controller. There may be a brake controller port under the dash on your F-250 and an adapter can be used with a brake controller.
The first thing you want to do is find out if your 4-way connector is operational. If it is working, that may save you some money. You can use a circuit tester like part # PTW2993 for that. Have someone sit in the... view full answer...
For your 1996 Ford F-350 with a 7.3 liter diesel engine the Edge CS2 part # EP85300 would be your best option. It will give you an incredible boost in horsepower as well as give you a few more miles per gallon as well.
The power gains are up to 100 horsepower and 200 ft lbs of torque. view full answer...
We have a similar ladder rack that does fit your 1992 Ford F-250 with the Erickson ladder rack part # EM07705 which would work great but the Rola you mentioned is not a fit so it would not be the correct rack to use. view full answer...
For your 1996 Ford F-350, I recommend using the Tekonsha Primus IQ Trailer Brake Controller part # TK90160. The Tekonsha Primus IQ is an excellent option for you. It has multiple boost levels for different trailers, integrated safeguards that protect the vehicle/trailer/brake controller, and it will run continuous diagnostic checks to ensure everything is in order when you need it to be.
If you take a look at the 3:23 mark in the attached install video, you can see the location of the... view full answer...
I would recommend you cut off the 6-way you have at the rear of your truck and then install a # 50-87-004 in it's place.
I attached a couple wiring diagrams for the two styles of connectors so that you would know how to wire up the new 7-way with the wires from the 6-way. view full answer...
Since you have a 4-way connector on your 1993 Ford F-250 and you need a 6-way round for the trailer I would recommend that you install a Brake Controller 6 and 4 Way Installation Kit, part # ETBC6, on your F-250. This will convert your 4-way to a 6-way and allow you to connect to the trailer you are purchasing and use a brake controller if you have one.
If you need a brake controller I would recommend a Tekonsha Brake Controller, part # 90885. I attached installation instructions for you... view full answer...
I spoke with one of my colleagues that is more up to date on performance programmers and he said that with a diesel engine, performance programmers really do provide good power gains over stock programming, even with stock intake, exhaust and injectors on the vehicle.
For the best power gains with a programmer you will need to do some modifications. Anything that will help the engine breathe better will help the programmer and your engine produce the most available power. So an upgraded... view full answer...
The Demco Hijacker Premier Series Above-Bed Base Rails # DM8552005-71 referenced in your question are confirmed to fit your 1992 Ford F-250 with overload springs but it will require drilling into the truck's frame for installation. There is not a base rail kit available that doesn't require frame drilling on your Ford F-250.
These base rails will work perfectly with your existing Demco Hijacker. All of the needed brackets and hardware for installation are included.

As far as suspension enhancement, it really depends on what you are wanting to improve on your 1992 Ford F-250 4x4. This may include rear sag and off-center balance. It also depends on whether you want a fully customizable enhancement like air bags.
If you are looking for an all-around boost to your suspension, I recommend the RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit - Heavy Duty # RAS3611-HD. Not only does the RoadActive kit provide you with 3,000 pounds of load-leveling... view full answer...
The best option we offer for universal towing mirrors for this vehicle are the Wheel Masters Eagle Vision Universal Extendable Towing Mirrors part # WM6600-2 which use straps that wrap around the doors. They would then provide you with a large 7" wide x 7" tall mirror that can be extended up to 17". I have attached our full list of options below if you prefer another style. view full answer...
There are only two Tekonsha brake controllers that work with electric over hydraulic brakes. First is the P-3, # 90195. The other is the Prodigy P2, # 90885. I have included links to the installation details for both of these controllers below. If your brake controller is older, it will not work with electric over hydraulic brakes.
If you decide to get a new controller, I recommend the Prodigy P2, # 90885. It can be used with electric over hydraulic brake systems, it is user friendly,... view full answer...
