  • The Redarc In-Vehicle BCDC Battery Charger - Dual Input - DC to DC - 12V/24V - 25 Amp # 331-BCDC1225D is primarily for people that want to ensure they have full and maintained batteries when they get to their campsite. Without a strong enough DC to DC charger, the larger battery banks barely get a charge while traveling, so they are not adequate for shorter trips or longer stays with battery power. These are really great options for people that want to camp off the grid and they can also...

  • Can Hitch Extension and Reducer for 2-1/2 Trailer Hitches be Cut Down
  • The Curt Hitch Extension and Reducer for 2-1/2" Trailer Hitches # C45048 and the similar Reese Hitch Box Extension and Reducer # RP45292 can only be cut down to 24" and not 28". These have only been tested at those lengths and there hitch pin holes on each are oriented in a manner that other lengths would not be realistically achievable. If you need the added distance, so long as you stay within the 450 lb tongue weight capacity and 4,500 lb towing capacity with the Curt # C45048 at its...

  • Heaviest Weight Bike Can Be With use of Trunk-Mount Bike Rack
  • The most a bike can weigh with the use of any trunk-mounted bike rack, including the Saris Bones 3 Bike Carrier # SA801BL is 35 lbs because heavier bikes are unable to be properly supported. For a bike that weighs 42 lbs you will need to use a trailer hitch and hitch-mounted bike rack; if you let me know the year, make and model of your vehicle as well as how many bikes you are looking to carry I will be happy to help you find the best solution for a bike rack.

  • How To Check For The Hot Wire Of A Leveling System Keypad For A 1994 Fleetwood Bounder
  • We don't carry this controller so I have no way of knowing which wire is the power without actually testing it. I looked up the manufacturer, Milwaukee Cylinders, and can't find that controller on their website so they most likely discontinued the product years ago and wasn't able to find a good wiring diagram either so I recommend taking a probe tester like part # PTW2993 to see if which wire is hot.

  • Storage of RV with a Water Filter System
  • For storage of RV with a water filter system such as the Clearsource Ultra RV Water Filter System, # CS87FR, you should consider removing the filters from the canisters and blowing out the system with pressurized air using the Valterra RV Blow Out Plug, # P23518LFVP. Do not exceed 30 psi. Allow the filter to dry out and store in a cool dry location. You can do this many times during the camping season but I recommend you not re-use after a long off-season of winter storage.

  • When we removed the rear bump stops, we found that by using a 10 mm socket and ratchet to take the bolt down.

  • Great question. The only adapter we have that will work with a Ready Brute is the Blue Ox Base Plate Adapter Brackets for Ready Brute Elite Tow Bars # BX88297.

  • Does Thule Roof Rack on 2017 Acura RDX With Factory Raised Rails Cause Sway
  • Thanks for the photo and the short answer to this is no, the Thule roof rack on your 2017 Acura RDX is not causing sway or any side-to-side movement. It looks like your '17 RDX has the factory raised rails and the Thule Raised Rail Feet # TH710401 and Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711400 or the AeroBlade crossbars. Either way they are aerodynamic bars and there will not be an issue with them causing sway as they are specifically designed for wind resistance. There can be many different...

  • How to Determine if Trailer Tires are Rated High Enough
  • Tires are rated individually so it depends on the weight capacity of your tires and how many you have. If it's a tandem axle trailer with four tires and they're rated for 2,830 pounds like the 225/75R15 Westlakes we carry, part # LHWL304, that's a total of 11,320 pounds so yes they're enough for your trailer.

  • Can Weight Distribution Be Used on I-beam Trailer Frames
  • You can indeed install a weight distribution hitch like the Equal-i-zer # EQ37100ET on a trailer with an I-beam frame, but you'll need to have pieces of steel plate welded to the trailer frame to box it in to provide a secure mounting location for the frame brackets to mount 32 inches rearward of the trailer ball.
