  • The AquaFresh hoses like the AquaFresh High Pressure Drinking Water Hose for RVs - 4' Long x 1/2" Diameter - Blue Vinyl # W01-8048 is not the same as the one from Australia that you are referencing. They are different and have different ratings for things like psi and warranty and are different hoses for different markets.

  • Acceptable Front-to-Back Play of Reese M5 5th Wheel Hitch, Part # RP30921, in 2012 Ford F-350
  • I spoke to my contact at Reese and they confirmed that some front-to-back play, such as what you are experiencing, is normal with your 5th wheel hitch. Since you have a factory-installed under-bed rail system in a recent model year truck we will assume that the 1/4 inch front-to-back play you have noted is not due to those components being loose or worn. It is possible that some minor adjustments to the installation may help. You can re-check this if you like. You can re-check that the...

  • Is The Provider A16RGBML Wheel/Tire Combo Balanced
  • When we receive the # A16RGBML tire/wheel combo, the tire is mounted on the rim but not balanced. We don't balance them because we don't have the equipment here to do so, and because it's not as crucial that trailer wheels/tires be balanced as it is for a passenger vehicle. This is because towed trailers don't have steer or drive axles. If you wished to have them balanced, you could certainly have it done locally but it's not an absolute necessity. I've linked to a product description...

  • Will Swivel Jack Handle Move When in Stowed Position?
  • The handle for the Square Pipe Mount Swivel Jack, # TJDP-7000S-B, is going to be stiff enough that it will not free float. For example, if you refer to the picture I've attached, you can see the handle sitting in an upright position. You can also take a look at the video I've linked, and at about the 1:30 mark, you will be able to see the handle being used and then come to a stop without falling back down

  • Which Fuses Handle Towing Functions on a 2014 Ford F-450?
  • There looks to be quite a few fuses and relays that have to to do with towing functions on a 2014 Ford F-450. So with that being said, you will also need to check the ports 26, 29, 70, 74, 75, 76, 100 in the engine compartment, and ports 13, 14, 15, and 30 in the passenger compartment. I included pictures of both fuse boxes and all the fuses/relays that have to do with towing as it is a good idea to check all of them.

  • Can I Use a Brake Controller with a Trailer Connected on a Front Hitch?
  • Yes, this can be done. However, you need an additional 7-way harness # ETBC7 to activate the trailer's brakes as you go down the driveway.

This hitch comes with the highest weight rating we offer on your vehicle. Additionally, it is a completely hidden design which means there will be no bulky crosstubes that create an eyesore on your new truck....
