  • Blue Ox Weight Distribution System Recommendation for 7,800 lb Trailer
  • For a trailer with a loaded tongue weight of 900 lbs the Blue Ox SwayPro system you'd want is the part # BXW1000 as it has a tongue weight range of between 750 lbs - 1,000 lbs. Your coupler is not underslung too which means the # BXW1000 is a fit. I attached a picture of what an underslung coupler looks like for you to check out as well. The best way to pick out a weight distribution system is to base it off of the loaded tongue weight of the setup when it is loaded and ready to tow....

  • Airstream Flying Cloud 20 Tire Recommendation for Size ST225/75-15
  • In the tire size of ST225/75-15 I would highly recommend the Westlake LRE tire part # LHWL304 as it has an automotive style tread pattern for superior traction, has a higher speed rating of 81 mph, and comes with a great warranty that includes roadside assistance.

  • How to Use Two 50amp Power Cords In Line Together
  • I do have a couple different options for you, but there is no adapter for what you are needing to do. The best option would be to use an extension cord like the Mighty Cord RV Extension Cord # A10-5025EH. Since you already have 2 power cords you could use the Power Grip Replacement RV Power Cord Adapter Receptacle # CAM55353. You would need to cut off one of the twist lock ends and install this in its place, essentially turning your power cord into an extension cord. If you decide to...

  • How to Determine Weight Distribution System for Trailer
  • The issue is not that the hitch ball is too high, it is that you do not have the properly rated weight distribution set up. You mentioned that you had an unloaded tongue weight of 900 lbs but your weight distribution system is the Equal-i-zer # EQ37100ET which is rated for 1,000 lbs of total tongue weight (which is the tongue weight of your fully loaded and ready to go trailer plus the weight of any cargo behind the rear axle of your tow vehicle). Your system not being rated high enough...

  • How To Choose Between Flow-Through and Cap Style Sensors for TST TPMS
  • If you have valve stems with a metal body like the Americana Metal, Bolt-In Valve Stem part # AM20906 then you will want to use flow-through sensors, the TST TPMS for RVs part # TST-507-FT-6-C. If you have valve stems with a rubber body like the Americana Rubber, Snap-In Valve Stem part # AM20903 then you will want to use the cap style sensors, the TST TPMS for RVs part # TST-507-RV-4-C.

  • Bike Rack Recommendation For 2010 Toyota 4Runner - MTB Fat Tires
  • We do carry the Swagman # S63381 hanging rack that will accommodate your bikes on both applications for your 2010 Toyota 4Runner and your 2010 Airstream Flying Cloud Travel Trailer. We also carry platform racks that will work with your 4Runner, but at this time we do not carry a platform rack that is rated to work with your travel trailer. The Swagman hanging rack is a viable option that will work. You might also consider the Swagman Lock # S64027 . This lock is designed specifically for...

  • Recommended Tire Chains for Airstream Flying Cloud Travel Trailer
  • I'll provide 2 options for you, one that's recommended for snow and ice, and one that works better for snow only. For snow and icy conditions, the Titan V-bar chains, part # TC2816CAM features V-shaped studs that really bite into the ice for superior traction. The chain set includes a cam-style tightener, but I'd still recommend using adjusters like part # TCMA2. If you're not going to encounter much in the way of ice, but will be dealing with snowy conditions, the Titan Twist-Link chain...

  • Replacement Hub/Drum and Brake Assemblies for Dexter 3,800 lb Axle
  • Since your hub/drum is 12 inch by 2 inch the correct self adjusting brake assemblies would actually be the part # AKEBRK-7-SA. Then for the correct hub/drum you'd want the part # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K. The drum portion of a hub doesn't affect the self adjusting mechanism so this fits regardless of if the assemblies are self adjusting.

  • Could Curt Adjustable Hitch 13703 Fit 2018 Airstream Flying Cloud Travel Trailer
  • The Curt adjustable RV hitch part # 13703 most likely does fit your Airstream Flying Cloud Travel Trailer as it fits all trailer frame styles that are between 22 and 72 inches apart. We don't have a way to verify your frame though so you'd have to check that out yourself.

  • Weight Distribution And Sway Control Hitch For a 2022 Airstream Flying Cloud FB23 Travel Trailer
  • I would not recommend using your current Husky Center Line as it is way to heavy for your new Airstream Flying Cloud FB23. With a weight and sway hitch you really want to ensure that your tongue weight will match your trailer. Without enough weight the bars will not properly level your vehicle while also providing enough resistance for the sway control to function properly. The Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution System # C17499 will be the closest to the weight of your new Airstream. It...

  • Best Adco Cover for an Airstream Flying Cloud 27FB
  • The Airstream Flying Cloud 27FB measures 28' long but we need to subtract 3' for the tongue therefore we're looking at a cover for a 25' trailer. For this, the best option we offer is the Adco Olefin HD RV Cover for Travel Trailers part # AD77ZR. This cover has an olefin top panel that works to protect all the roof seals from uv rays, keeping out leaks zippered panels for entry, and weighted straps for an easier install. It's also all backed by a leading three year warranty.

  • Lift Kit that Fits 2021 Airstream Flying Cloud 27FB
  • From what I was able to determine from some research, the 2023 Airstream Globetrotter 27FB does have a #11 Torflex axle on it, so the Dexter # K71-724-02 is the correct lift kit for your trailer. This is a 2-7/8 inch lift kit.

  • The Ultra-Fab Power Twin II Manual Stabilizer # UF39-941704 that you referenced fits trailers that have frames that are 48 to 80 inches wide. Since you measured 67-1/8 inches wide this would easily fit your trailer.

  • Lift Kit for 2017 Airstream 19 Flying Cloud
  • Based on my research it looks like your 2017 Airstream 19 Flying Cloud is equipped with a #11 Dexter Torflex Axle. I do recommend verifying this by checking the main tag/sticker on the axle itself. For this axle type we have the Torflex Lift Kit # K71-724-02 that will raise the trailer frame by 2-7/8 inches. Just note that this kit is for a tandem axle setup so you will have an extra set of blocks. We do not currently have this available as a single axle kit. I have attached a short...

  • The most popular 2-1/2 inch shank we carry is part # EQ90-02-4900 which offers up to 10 inches of rise or 6 inches of drop. if you need a different rise or drop I've linked all the shanks we carry that will work for you.

  • Can a Weight Distribution System Be Used On a 2019 Volvo XC90
  • I do have an option for you but your 2019 Volvo XC90 is not permitted for use with a weight distribution system like the Strait-Line Weight Distribution System. This is most likely due to how the trailer hitches for your XC90 like the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C53HR attach. Therefore, you will need to tow without a weight distribution system. That said, if you want to be sure you don't run into issues with trailer sway which I will say is a major reason as to why so many people...

  • Will the Lippert Manual Pull-Out Step LC432687 fit 2015 Airstream Flying Cloud 25’
  • The Lippert RV steps part # LC432687 are designed to fit as many RV applications as possible but you'd need to measure the current bolt holes to know if they will work or not. The mounting holes of this are 26-1/4 inches apart on top. Or if your current brackets are outrigger style that attach to the side of the steps these are overall 27-1/2 inches apart.
