  • How to Determine Original Tire Size of 1993 Terry Resort 5th Wheel
  • Terry brand trailers ceased operations after the 2009 model year, so unfortunately it's not possible to contact the manufacturer. I was unable to find anything online regarding the original tire size, but the manufacturer typically put that information on a sticker along with the VIN and the GVWR. This sticker is typically placed either in one of the storage compartments that are accessible from the exterior of the trailer or on the inside of one of the kitchen or storage cabinet doors...

  • Replacement 7-Inch Hub/Drum for 1993 Coleman Cape Cod Pop-Up Tent Trailer
  • My research indicates that the Coleman part 4716A1071 refers to a Dexter 7 x 2-inch hub/drum with a 5-lug pattern. We have several options in this size hub/drum that are displayed on the linked page; all have the 5-on-4-1/2 bolt pattern and all are rated for 2K axles. We have hubs for both standard spindles and also for EZ-Lube spindles. All you need to do to select the correct replacement hub/drum is confirm which bearing is used in yours. It should be either # L44643 or # L44649 since...

  • In order to pick out the correct hub assembly for a trailer you are going to need know a few key pieces of information. The first thing you will need to know is the bolt pattern of your hubs. This is so you get a hub that is compatible with your wheels. I attached an FAQ article on determining bolt pattern for you to check out.

  • Upgrading to 12" Wheels and Tires on 1993 Coleman Pop Up With 5.70-8 Tires
  • Replacing your tires with a larger size on your 1993 Coleman camper is a matter of having enough clearance. If you want to switch to a 12" wheel and tire I recommend getting the smallest one you can. 5.70-8 tires like the # AM30153 have an outer diameter of 18" and section width of 5.8". The # AM30740 you were looking at has an outer diameter of 21.9" so you are going to lose 1.95" of clearance on the top. You need a minimum of 3" for regular suspension travel. The # AM30540 which is...

  • Troubleshooting Lost Power on a 1993 Fleetwood Limited RV Outlet with Generator
  • From the sounds of the issue, there does not appear to be a problem with the controller or the converter. In order to find the cause of the issue, the best way to proceed is to plug into a shore power source and trace the wires all the way to the outlet that has no power. This sometimes is the case when an aftermarket generator is added to an older model RV like your 1993 Fleetwood Limited. You can test the wiring trail throughout to test to see if there are any shorts with a circuit tester...

  • How to Select the Right Tires for Fleetwood Wilderness Trailer
  • The right tire for your 1990 Fleetwood Wilderness will depend on what the diameter and width of your wheels are as well as the GVWR of the trailer. You will need tires that fit in your wheel well and the width of your rim while also having a capacity at or above your Fleetwood's GVWR. For example, the Karrier # AM10256 fits 15" x 6", 15" x 6-1/2", and 15" x 7" rims, is 28.4" in diameter, 8.9" wide and has a maximum capacity of 2.540 lbs at 65 psi. Additionally, to prevent blowouts always...

  • Replacement Landing Gear Set for a 1991 Avalon 5th Wheel Trailer
  • To choose the correct replacement landing gear set you simply need to determine the spacing between the weld stops on your current landing gear set. The standard measurement is 15-1/2" inside to inside or 17-1/2" outside to outside. For this measurement I recommend the Landing Gear Set # RVLG-8000 because it gives you 36-1/2" of lift and is rated for 8,000 lbs. For this you can either use the manual hand crank # RVLG-HDL or the 12V DC Motor # M1230 and Switch # LG-145236 for operation. If...

  • Recommended Axles for Classic Camping Trailer Measurements
  • Based on the 66 inch on center frame measurement there isn't a good axle fit for a through axle based on the spring seat locations needed. My recommendation for a custom fit is the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System w Electric Brake Hubs - Straight Spindle - 3,500 lbs # A35RS545E. This system will mount directly to your trailer frame and uses a 2 inch square bar (not included) between the sides utilizing the integrated holes in the assemblies to give the strength needed. These...

  • Could Optronics Trailer Clearance Lights A32AB and A32RB Replace SAE-A-P2-83
  • The SAE number of a trailer light isn't a reliable way to ID them as it's not a part number but if what you have looks like the # A32AB or # A32RB then it is extremely likely that it is the correct lens as this is a very popular light that is one of the industry standard clearance lights made by several manufacturers the exact same.

  • How To Determine The Correct Fitting Door Handle/Lock For Your RV
  • The only way to know if a door handle will fit your RV is to measure the cutout and get the corresponding fit. The Bauer Products Motorhome Door Lock - Black Item # BA64FR you linked to has a required cutout dimension of 5-1/4" wide x 4-1/2" tall. You should be able to unscrew the door handle from the inside of the camper to take it off and measure the cutout and can place it back in to prevent anyone from entering while you wait for the new one to arrive. When you have the measurement...

  • Picking Out Replacement Trailer Leaf Spring Info Needed
  • Without knowing what axle capacity you have it's hard to say exactly what leaf spring you would need. But for a 5 leaf spring we only have 6k axle springs like the part # e34SR which is 25-1/4 inches long overall. Normally the two pieces of info needed for replacement springs is axle capacity (most important) and length so that you hopefully don't have to move hangers. The amount of leafs does not typically matter.

  • Can a Hayes 10 x 1 5/8" Braking Assembly W/ No Mounting Flange Be Converted to a Standard Flange
  • So the short answer is no, there is nothing you can do to your current mounting plate to make another braking assembly fit your current setup. What you have is pretty unique, and when the team and myself took a look at it we were all in agreement that the best step forward is to cut of your current flange and weld on a new one. Now this is a pretty intensive project and is going to require a special jig that is designed specifically for this, so this isn't something you're going to be...

  • Recommended Suspension Enhancement For A 2008 Fleetwood Bounder 32K
  • For a 2008 Fleetwood Bounder 32K on a Ford F-53 Chassis you would need to get some SumoSprings to help cushion your suspension and gain a bit of extra load support. You would need the SumoSprings Rebel Custom Helper Springs # SSF-171-40-2 for the front and SumoSprings Maxim Custom Helper Springs # SSR-187-54-1 for the rear. These microcellular springs are designed to give you a progressive load control so that your ride quality doesn't suffer when you're unloaded. The springs are completely...

  • Replacement Motor, Gearbox and Linkage for Kwikee Series 32 Steps Pre-1995
  • I do believe you have a Kwikee Series 32 step with a curved linkage so you can replace the motor and linkage with the Motor Upgrade Kit for Kwikee Electric RV Steps # LC379145. This curved linkage is the "A" linkage that you've mentioned, so this is the complete kit needed to replace all of those components. If you wanted to replace the entire step assembly with completely new parts you can use the Kwikee Electric RV Step Complete Assembly - Double - 32 Series - 24" Wide # LC372261.

  • Will The DMC84FR Door Conversion Kit Fit A Fogatti Tankless Water Heater
  • I contacted Dometic about the Water Heater Door Conversion Kit # DMC84FR fitting your Fogatti FS06B1, and they cannot recommend using it with anything but the Dometic # DMC74FR. It was designed specifically to fit this water heater. If the door on your Fogatti water heater, like the # LSB64FR, was damaged though, we do have the Replacement Access Door for Fogatti RV Tankless Water Heater - White # LSB94FR as a direct replacement. But unfortunately, we do not have an adapter kit available...

  • Will The Dometic Ultra Breeze Trailer Roof Vent Cover Work With The Fan-Tastic Vent Model # 2250
  • The Dometic Ultra Breeze Trailer Roof Vent Cover # DMC38FR is designed to cover your vent but it, along with every other brand, will not allow the vent to 100% fully open since they aren't tall enough. Manufacturers have stated that the vent lid opens far enough that the vent will not have a decrease in performance. Since the # FV802250 is a manual lift you'll just want to make sure you aren't forcing up when it's touching the cover because you can end up braking the lift arm. It's best...

  • What Is The Difference Between A Disc Brake and Drum Brake Surge Brake Actuator?
  • The difference between the Demco # DM62VR for disc brakes and the Demco # DM72VR for drum brakes is the pressure each one operates at so that why they cannot be interchanged. Disc brakes require 1600 PSI where drums like what your trailer has require around 1000 PSI. For a surge brake actuator compatible with drum brakes and a reverse lockout solenoid I recommend going with the Dexter DX7.5 Drop-N-Go Brake Actuator - Drum Brakes - 2" Ball - Zinc Plated - 7,500 lbs # 099-175-00 which can...
