  • Do Scissor Stabilizer Jacks Have to Attach to RV Frame to Function
  • Without bolting or welding down the scissor jacks # TJSCHD-24-4 they'd still do a decent job stabilizing the camper but considering how much more convenient they are when installed on the trailer I'd recommend you go that route. Would also prevent the jacks from slipping possibly.

  • Troubleshooting a Stabilizer Jacks that Don't Operate With the Wall Switch
  • The only other thing I can think of is that the wiring somewhere in your loom is damaged. Since you mentioned that you've confirmed it works when using a remote but not with the switch that would indicate that problem is somewhere between the jacks and the switch. It's not going to be much fun but really your only option is to go through that wiring and make sure everything is up to snuff. you'll want to be looking for any sort of exposed or frayed wires, any broken wires, or anything...

  • Recommended Replacement Power Inlet Solution for a 2012 Forest River WIldwood TT
  • Bob, I do have something you can work with, but all of our power inlets are 30 or 50 amps because that's what you'll find at an RV park. So, that being said, you're going to need swap your current inlet with a 30 amp inlet, and then use an adapter to hook up to a 15 amp outlet. For a 30 amp inlet I recommend checking out the Mighty Cord Replacement RV Power Inlet part # A10-30INVP, and then from here you can just use the Mighty Cord RV Power Cord Adapter part # A10-1530DBK so you can...

  • Troubleshooting etrailer EJ-3520-BBX Electric Trailer Jack
  • Can the jack be operated manually? Try using the manual crank that was included with the jack to ensure the mechanism is operating freely. It may sound very obvious, but make sure the trailer mounted battery is fully charged and that the wire connection to the battery is secure. If the jack is powered by its connection to the 12 volt circuit on the trailer connector, make sure that circuit is active and the fuse that protects it hasn't blown. Sometimes, if the powder coating on the jack's...

  • How to Pick Out Replacement Dust Cap for Trailer Hub
  • We definitely can help but we need to know the diameter of the cap so that we can pick out the correct one. You'll need to remove the one you have and measure the outside diameter of the cap where it fits into the hub and we'll be able to pick you out what you need. If you have a 1.99 inch diameter you'd want the part # RG04-040, if you have a 2.45 inch diameter you'd need part # DC250L-DCRP, or if you have 2.72 inch you'd want part # RG04-120. To measure your hub bore you'd need the...

  • Recommended Reese Steadi-Flex Weight Distribution System for Forest River Wildwood 27RKSS
  • With a GVWR of 7,582 pounds you are likely looking at a loaded tongue weight of between 750 and 1,140 pounds. This is simply because the tongue weight should be about 10 to 15 percent of its loaded weight. I looked up the specs for your Forest River Wildwood 27RKSS and it appears that the 720 pound tongue weight that you mentioned is with the trailer empty. Also keep in mind that any added cargo weight coming from behind the rear axle of your tow vehicle needs to be added to your total...

  • Thule Awning FIt for Forest River Travel Trailer

  • Difference Between ST205/75D15 and ST205/75R15 Size Tires
  • The difference between a D15 tire and an R15 tire is the construction. The D denotes that it's a bias tire and the R is for a radial tire. Which is best for you depends on the type of terrain you're towing the trailer on because bias tires have a thicker sidewall making them better for off-road travel where radials run cooler and have better ground contact making them ideal for highway use. Among our selection if you're going with a bias tire I recommend Kenda # AM1ST92. It's the same...
