When installing the Furrion Chill HE RV Air Conditioner System - Multi Zone - 13,500 Btu - White # FR37FJ on your 1999 Fleetwood RV you should be able to use your existing electrical wiring from your previous system to power the rooftop and air distribution boxes. The wiring should be minimum 12AWG to properly carry the load to your units. The thermostat is a 4-wire installation (power, ground, communication wire A, communication wire B) Depending on the system you already have in place... view full answer...
Adding weight to a tow dolly will help with some of that bounce for sure, but 2 other things you can do is lower the air pressure in the tires and drive slower on the highway.
For example, for the Demco Kar Kaddy X Tow Dolly # DM9713093 Demco recommends lowering the air to 20 psi and refraining from driving over 55 mph. It won't be perfect, but doing all of this will help give you more control over your tow dolly. Just be sure to fill your tires back up to the recommended psi rating found... view full answer...
You should not have any problem re-using a fitting like part # F3031-1.
You will want to make sure it has not been damaged or worn and that the threads are free of corrosion and debris when using it again. You may want to use a wire brush and use Teflon tape or a sealant to make sure you prevent air leaks. view full answer...
Yes, you can use RoadMaster BrakeMaster Second RV Kit # RM-98300 for motorhomes with hydraulic brakes. The size of the wires coming off the brake light switch should not be a problem but if it's easier you can wire into the brake switch wire going into the motorhome's brake controller connector. It should be the red wire.

If your motorhome has a factory steering stabilizer you'd need to remove it before installing a Roadmaster Exact Center like the # RM82RR. This will function much better than the current stabilizer. view full answer...
The port to connect the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller Item # 90195 on your 2015 Forest River George Town 378XL should be located left of the steering column up under the dash. It could be taped up to other wires and may be kind of hidden in a bundle so you are going to have to spread the wires out some to locate it. view full answer...
The wires may not match color for color so you would have to match the functions. Start with the ones that are obvious. The white on both are ground wires. Make that connection. Blue on both are same function. Make that connection. All you have left is the red and black wire from the controller. The red wire is going to connect to the Lt green wire under the dash. The black wire is going to connect to the red wire under the dash. view full answer...
There actually aren't any mounting brackets for the Furrion Refrigerator # FCR17ADA-BL as it is designed to just sit in place. I believe you are referring to the silver bracket on the underside of the fridge. That is actually used to keep the working parts in place and wasn't really designed to be used as a mounting bracket (although I'm sure you could use it like that if you'd like, if you're careful with how you mount it). view full answer...
The 2022 Ford F-53 does not have a custom fit brake controller wiring harness available for it yet so you'd need to cut off the connector and wire it to the controller. I attached a picture of what the harness looks like though. view full answer...
The blue wire from your Tekonsha Voyager Trailer Brake Controller # 39510 should only be hot when you press the brake pedal or use the manual override. You may see a pulse of power on the pin for the trailer brake power as the brake controller is checking to see when the trailer is connected, but it won't be a constant 12V power.
If you are seeing constant 12V power on that blue wire then you may have some of the wiring installed incorrectly or the brake controller may be shot. If the... view full answer...
Winding the roller to get the proper spring tension comes down to installing everything on the roller and arm side except for attaching the fabric to the awning rail that holds it. This is where you wind the roller 14 times away from the RV body and then once you get to that point attach the fabric to the rail. The motor does not automatically put in the correct tension. view full answer...
The SuperSprings Custom Suspension Stabilizer and Sway Control Kit part # SSA41 which is a fit for a 2015 Ford F-53 Chassis is not designed to raise the ride height. However, since the kit works to help decrease the factory leaf springs from compressing as much this can in turn change ride height but only slightly. Unfortunately, I don't have any specific figures for you but I would say anywhere from 1/2" to 1" is not out of the realm of possibility using the uppermost hole but there are... view full answer...
If the two brown wires aren't going to be used, I'd tape them together really good with some electrical tape # PTW502 and put them somewhere out of the way. You can even put some heat shrink tubing # DW05451 on over top of the electrical tape to keep them nice and protected.
This way if you ever were to hook up a furnace, all you'd need to do is cut the heat shrink and electrical tape off and you'd be ready to go. view full answer...
I am not sure what is wrong with the links but I have included a picture of the instructions for the rear, # RM-4139-125, and for the front, # RM-4139-127, for your RV built on the 1997 Ford F-53. V8 chassis.
The rear is on the top and the front is on the bottom. view full answer...
The Convert-A-Ball cushioned ball mount # AMSC12 is absolutely compatible with the surge breaks on your tow dolly. You may not even notice it the cushion interacting with your surge couple. The way cushion is designed is that the more pressure that is put on it the firmer it gets. The cushion itself is so dense that more force would be needed to compress that cushion than to actuate the surge coupler. Where this ball mount truly shines is when there's a lot of road shock that needs to be... view full answer...
The Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar for Motorhomes # RM-1139-143 can use your factory u-bolts if they are long enough. If they are not, then Roadmaster recommends using the 7/8 inch diameter u-bolts that are longer (most likely the larger diameter due to length needed to ensure strength). I've attached a couple photos from the installation instructions to assist with the size and torque.
When torque specs are so large either a large special torque wrench is required or installers are... view full answer...
I have an answer for you. Your vehicle does not have a brake controller port on that chassis. Ford started making break controller ports for the F-53 in 1999. In order to install a brake controller, I recommend hard-wiring into the wiring system of the vehicle. view full answer...
The rear anti-sway bar that is designed to fit your 2016 Fleetwood is part # 1139-144. The installation does require drilling. Roadmaster states it will take about two hours for installation. If you need longer U-bolts you can use part # RM-590050-00.
Installing the rear anti-sway bar will help reduce roll and help keep the motorhome balanced which means less driver fatigue.
Many folks also install front anti-sway bars. For the front of your Bounder you would need part # RM-1139-148.

The Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57344 are in fact a fit for your 2018 Ford F-53 chassis with a GVWR of 22,000 lbs. These will include everything you will need to make the installation happen with the exception of the tools of course and a few extra zip ties. These will really give you quite the improvement in the handling and ride of your motorhome.
As for compressor kits I really like the Air Lift WirelessAIR Compressor System for Air Helper Springs part # AL74000EZ... view full answer...
