Expert Answers about Freightliner M2


  • Trailer Plug Wiring For 2007 Freightliner M2 106 Cargo Truck
  • For your 2007 Freightliner M2 truck, there is not a plug-in trailer wiring harness available. I would recommend the Hopkins Active Taillight Converter, part # 46255. This system is designed to splice into the existing wiring on your truck and provide a 4-way connector at the rear of your truck. It also isolates and protects the tow vehicle from trailer electrical malfunctions. I would recommend a circuit tester like part # PTW2993, to test the wiring on your truck. You want to test the...

  • Recommended Trailer Brake Controller for a 2023 Newmar SuperStar
  • I recommend using the Curt Echo Wireless Brake Controller part # C51180 on a 2023 Newmar SuperStar. The reason for this is because it's a wireless controller which means there is no running wires from the front to the rear. There is no brake controller port on this motorhome so in order to avoid a bunch of wire splicing and running wires, I highly recommend a wireless brake controller, the Curt Echo.

  • Recommendation For Skid Wheels For Dynaquest 360XL Motorhome
  • For your Dynaquest 360XL motorhome, I recommend using the Ultra-Fab Skid Wheels for Class A RVs, Item # UF48-979013. These sturdy steel wheels have a 6 inch diameter and attach to the rear of your RV to help prevent the tail from dragging. These skid wheels are intended for motorhomes longer than 34-feet. I have attached a video for you to check out.

  • Gen-Y Torsion Ball Mount or Shocker Hitch For 3 Inch Hitch Receiver
  • Between the Shocker Hitch and Gen-Y Torsion ball mount, I recommend the Gen-Y. Its rubber torsion arms are going to absorb road shock naturally due to its design, while the Shocker Hitch requires constant maintenance that isn't needed with the Gen-Y. It will improve the ride of your trailer substantially without the added work of maintaining an air bag, and because it the entire ball mount is designed to absorb shock, there isn't going to be stress/fatigue on it like there is on straight...

  • Recommended Wiring Harness and Brake Controller for 2017 Freightliner M2 Tandem Axle Chassis
  • The # C59496 trailer wiring harness is a great option for your truck. The harness can be used on 2- and 3-wire systems which makes it extremely versatile. When used on 2-wire systems, brake wire on harness must be grounded for proper function and on 3-wire system on the towing vehicle it adapts to work with a 2-wire system on the trailer. Then you will need to use the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller - 7-Way RV and 4-Way Flat - 10 Gauge Wires # ETBC7 along with...

  • Anti-Sway Bar and Steering Stabilizer for a 2012 Freightliner M2
  • We have different sway bar options depending on how your 2012 Freightlinter M2 is equipped. The sway bars for this vehicle will fit 2 different Class A motor home models and 3 different EV Type 1 vehicles (emergency vehicles). Starting with Class A models, if it has an 8,000 pound rear axle you would use # RM-1209-116 but it won't fit if the vehicle has the auxiliary cooling package. If the vehicle is an EV Type 1 with airliner air suspension with chains and 5 x 4 u-bolt pattern you would...

  • Recommendation to Add Stability to Front of 2018 Freightliner M2 106 Chassis with 10K Axles
  • I do have a great option for you but we do not have a standard front sway bar available for your Freightliner M2 chassis with the 10,000 pound front axle. What you can use at the front that will still really help with keeping the RV in line and minimizing wander is the Roadmaster TruTrac # RM-TRAC-FM2. This Trac Rod essentially braces the axle to prevent jarring and will control any of that excessive side play during travel. It will install using existing holes in the chassis' frame so...

  • Can 7-Way Be Added to Freightliner Semi Truck
  • We can help with a basic 7-way and wiring but we do not have anything that's going to actuate ABS brakes. You can hardwire in a 7-Way, # HM47210 though. For this 7-Way the white wire is ground, yellow is left turn signal and brake lights, green is right turn signal and brake lights, brown is the tail light wire, red is auxiliary power, blue is output to electric brakes, and purple is reverse lights. If the turn signals and brake lights are not combined on the same circuits then instead...

  • Brake Controller Recommendation for 2022 Newmar Superstar Freightliner
  • I did some research and it looks like your 2022 Newmar Superstar that is built on a Freightliner M2 chassis has brake controller wiring which is on top of the drivers side fuel tank. You will take off the access panel when you open the drivers dooor and you'll see the loom there. Then you can wire in a brake controller like the Redarc Tow Pro Liberty part # RED52VR.

  • Trailer Hitch for a 2005 Freightliner MT45
  • While we do not have a custom fit hitch for your Freightliner MT45 we do have several heavy duty weld-on hitches that could work for you. I have included a link to all of them for you. Based on your frame width you could use # 41990 which is 44 inches long. Then for brackets you could use 7 inch brackets # 4907 or 16 inch brackets # 4916. If the frame is an I-beam frame then the only option is # 13703. Weld-on hitches should only be installed by qualified professional welders. I have...

  • Correct Hub Cover for a 2018 Freightliner M2 with 22.5 Inch Wheels
  • According to my research you have a 10 on 11-1/4" or 285mm bolt pattern on your 2018 Freightliner M2 which means the correct hub cover for you is the Phoenix USA Hub Cover part # PXQH1200F. However, in order to be certain you will want to measure from the center of one bolt hole to the center of its opposite to determine the diameter of the lug pattern. I have attached a list of other options for you as well if you do not in fact have a 10 on 11-1/4" or 285mm bolt pattern.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2010 Freightliner MT45 Snap-On Tool Truck
  • Although we do not carry a hitch designed specifically for your 2010 Freightliner MT45 Snap-On Tool Truck, we do have universal hitches available. We have the Draw-Tite # 41990-07, which is a weld-on hitch that will fit frames up to 44" wide and has a 7" drop. If you need a 16" drop we also have the # 41990-16. This Class V hitch has a maximum gross trailer weight of 16,000 lbs and tongue weight of 1,600 lbs. It also uses a 2" receiver. Since this is a weld on installation, I recommend...

  • Determining if Solera Slide-Topper Can be Installed on Slide-Out with Electric Awning
  • It sounds like you are asking if a Solera Slide-Topper like the 12.5' # LCV000177334 that you were looking at can be installed on your Grand Design trailer that features an electric awning already in place. Just let me know if that is not the case. There are a few possible styles and mounting positions of electric awnings that are used on slide-outs so it will really just be a matter of comparing where your awning is attached to the mounting location of our Slide-Toppers. I have attached...

  • How Would Brake Controller Install in 2016 Seneca 37TS Motorhome
  • I looked and was not able to find any trailer wiring or brake controller wiring for your 2016 Seneca 37ts motorhome which is built on a Freightliner M2 chassis. You will need to start with a 4-way. For that you would want the # C59496. This will be the base of the wiring setup to control the lighting of the trailer you plan to tow. From there you would need to convert the 4-way to a 7-way so that you can install the brake controller. For that you will want the Brake Controller Install...

  • Is your controller in hydraulic mode? Sounds like it may not be based on what you described. The P3 part # 90195 is compatible as-is with electric over hydraulic brake actuators like the Hydrastart # HBA16 but it has to be put in "hydraulic mode"
