  • What Would Cause Trailer Tire Wear
  • It is most likely a bent spindle or axle that is causing the tire wear you mentioned but sometimes it's a damaged suspension component. So what I would do is go over the trailer suspension seeing if you can find anything that looks damaged or bent and fix as needed. If you can't find anything then it would be time to take the trailer into a shop that can do alignments on trailer suspension and let them see if they can find the issue.

  • Is There an Available 6 Pin Round to 7 Blade Adapter
  • I have a solution for you if the 7 way is on your vehicle and the 6 pole round is on your trailer; for that you could use the Hopkins Endurance Flex-Coil Trailer Connector Adapter w/ Nite-Glow - 7-Way to 6-Pole - 8' Long # HM47053. However if you've got a vehicle with a 6 round and need to tow a trailer with a 7 way blade style connector then we do not have a solution for you, and I'm not sure that one exists. For that, you would need to switch your vehicle connector to a 7 way using the...

  • How To Tell If Spindle Is Overloaded
  • It depends on how many axles you have. If you have two axles then yes it would be overloaded because that would be 7,000 pounds. If you have three axles you would be fine. Depending on what your bolt pattern is I would go up in axle capacity and put on a new axle like The Dexter Trailer Axle Beam with E-Z Lube Spindles # 8327816. Changing the spindle would not help. The axle is 5,200 pounds and has an inner bearing # 25580 and an outer bearing # LM67048. The axle is 86-1/2 inches hub-face-to-hub-face...

  • Does Lippert Components High Speed Electric Stabilizer Trailer Jack # LC298707 Auto Level
  • The Lippert Components High Speed Electric Stabilizer Trailer Jack # LC298707 does not auto level. It has an extend and retract button but does not have an auto level function. The only system we have that will auto level is the Ground Control 3.0 part # LC358590 which comes with landing gear jacks as well. To help you level with the # LC298707 you might be interested in the part # HM08525 which is a set of stick-on levels that you can watch as you make adjustments.

  • Picking MorRyde CRE 3000 for 2021 Forest River Salem 263BHXL

  • Troubleshooting An Everchill RV Refrigerator That Freezes Up
  • If your Everchill RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer # EV77FR is freezing up then I have the following troubleshooting recommendations: 1. First you'll need to thaw out the drain line. Turn off the power running to the fridge and leave the doors open so that the ice will melt. Once the ice is melted you can remove the lower back panel to gain access to the drain line and can ensure that it's clear using a pipe cleaner brush. 2. Check the temperature settings and lower them. 3. Check the ground...

  • Using 3/8 inch Fittings with HydroMax Water Pump and Dimensions of Lippert Flex Guard
  • You'd need to source a 1/2 inch to 3/8 inch reducer to use with the HydroMax RV Fresh Water Pump part # P25201 but that's not an adapter we offer at this time. Each of the Flex guards you mentioned # LC1346271, # LC1346281, and # LC1346291 is 50-1/2 inches long. The width of the single is 6 inches, the double, 12 inches, and the triple 18 inches.

  • Can you Increase The Tire Size On A 2014 Forest River Salem Cruise Lite West T261BHXL
  • Hey Randy, With a 33" spacing you'd have approximately 4.6" between the tires of the # AM32545. You'll want to also measure the vertical distance between the tire and fenders as well as the horizontal distance between the tire and trailer body/frame. You'll want to have at least 1" for the horizontal measurement and at least 3" for the vertical measurement when the new wheels/tires are installed to accommodate suspension travel.

  • Troubleshooting A Furrion DV3100 RV Stereo That Won't Tune To Odd Numbered Stations
  • I recommend first unmounting the stereo and pulling the fuse located on the back of the stereo to reset it. With this being such a specific issue if resetting the unit doesn't fix it then it will most likely need to be replaced. If this is the case then I recommend the Jensen RV Stereo part # JWM70A to replace your Furrion DV3100 RV Stereo. They both have very similar features such as Bluetooth, USB/AUX Ports, and Wireless Remote but the Jensen option is a bit better built in my experience...

  • Available Hub Covers for 5-on-4-1/2 Trailer Wheels on Forest River Travel Trailer
  • I see you purchased Phoenix USA QuickTrim Hub Cover # PXQT545BHS. This is intended for 1/2-inch 60-degree-coned lug nuts in the popular 5-on-4-1/2 wheel bolt pattern. If this is not the correct size for the wheels on your 2016 Forest River Salem Cruise Lite Travel Trailer you can send along a photo or two of the center cap you need. Dimensions for the part will help too. If you have Bearing Buddy grease caps on the hubs these may not fit inside the inner recess of the hub cover. All...

  • Troubleshooting Electric Jack Power on Salem Cruise Lite 171RBXL
  • I recommend using a circuit tester like # PTW2993 on the wires coming in and out of your switch. This will tell you if you have any power going into the switch or coming out of the switch when activated. It is possible you have a bad switch, and this will let us know if we need to trace a wire for a short or not. If you find that you don't have power going to your switch which is what it sounds like, you will need to physically trace the wire probing the insulation every couple of feet...

  • Replacement Steps for 2017 Forest River Sale Cruise Lite 171RBXL
  • The TorkLift Glow Step Revolution # TLA8102 are designed to work as a universal replacement option, and won't be coach specific. Additionally, we do not have information that tells us what steps fit on different coaches, so you will want to measure the entry height from the mounting spot to the ground as well as the dimensions of the area the steps would be mounted. The # TLA8102 are designed to work on coaches that have 18-1/2" - 28" entry heights and requires a 25-1/2" bracket; the...

  • Redarc Tow-Pro Elite LED Not Showing Calibration With Trailer Disconnected
  • What you are experiencing with your # RED44FR is perfectly normal. The brake controller will still calibrate without the trailer connected, but you won't have the LED indication showing this is happening. Once a trailer is connected you will see a solid blue light. However, it wouldn't hurt to hook up the trailer and make sure everything is functioning properly.
