Expert Answers about Forest River Flagstaff Super Lite Fifth Wheel

• What Causes a Trailer with a Pivoting Pin Box to Chuck
• It's actually the fifth wheel hitch that makes the biggest impact on chucking when fifth wheel towing. If it's a pivoting pin box like you mentioned it can also be from using the universal wedge instead of one custom fit for the hitch and pin box. For a fifth wheel hitch that is known to be very smooth and quiet the B and W Patriot part # BWRVK3255 would be a great option as it has a very tight jaw design as well as cushioning built into the head as well.

• Does the Solera RV Awning Shade Screen # LC37978609 Have a Tapered Top
• The Solera RV Awning Shade Screen # LC37978609 does have a taper or trapezoid shape to it at the top.

• Since there is no comprehensive list of parts for all trailers, I have no way of knowing which brakes you need on your 2021 Flagstaff 524BBS.

• Replacement 7-Way Trailer Wiring Junction Box Installation
• We can help you get your RV's 7-way wiring sorted out. The easiest way to go is to replace the whole junction box with etrailer # HS381-9000 since this has a pre-wired 7-way. This means you only have to make the RV side connections. The wire gauge will be thicker for the 12V (black) and ground (white) wires which gets a few of those out of the way right off the bat. It sounds like you already tried testing the functions on the RV wires. This process is usually pretty straightforward....

• If the control board has been replaced on your Fan-Tastic Vent Roof Vent # FV807350 and it's still acting up and you're not having the same problem with the other one then it could be because of one of the following things: You have good voltage so the other half of this would be the ground connection.

• Compatibility of Dexter Heavy-Duty Suspension Kit with 2004 Forest River Wildcat 5th Wheel
• Thanks for the photo. You will not have any issue using the Dexter Heavy-Duty Suspension Kit for Tandem-Axle Trailers - 1-3/4" Wide Double-Eye Springs # K71-449-00 and moving the equalizer bolt down to the lower hole position. This will work very well on your trailer and will give you a better equalizer with the integrated grease zerk and the heavy-duty shackles with integrated grease zerks. The minor difference in equalizer height at that point will not be an issue for the shackle straps.
