• Can The etrailer RV Bumper Mounted Cargo Carrier Be Used On A 2021 Aliner Ranger 12 Camper
• Hi Cheryl, Since a 2021 Aliner Ranger 12 camper doesn't come with a steel 4" x 4" bumper you'd have to have one welded to the frame before you'd be able to mount the The 24x84 etrailer Cargo Carrier for RV Bumper # e96ZR. You'd need at minimum 1/2" of clearance between the body of the camper and the bumper in order to get the mounting brackets for the carrier in place. You'll also need to check with capacity if the bumper with whoever welds it into place to ensure that it's strong enough...

• Recommended Cover for a 2020 Aliner Expedition Camper
• I took a look at the dimensions of your 2020 Aliner Expedition Camper. My information shows your camper measuring 18' long x 7-1/4' wide x 5-1/2' tall. With this in mind we are going to have to go with a cover not meant for a pop-up trailer like item # 290-12295 because of the height difference. I recommend the Adco Olefin HD RV Cover for Travel Trailers up to 18' item # AD37ZR. This cover measures 18' 2" long x 8' 3" wide x 7' 6" tall. It has been built to survive in all climates and...

• Finding The Correct Entry Door Trim For A 2018 Montana High Country HM381TH
• We do offer a variety of different trims, and we very well may have the correct trim for the entry door on your 2018 Montana High Country HM381TH. Unfortunately, there is no way for us to cross reference a model of camper to know exactly what size/shape of trim you will need. The best way to find the correct trim is to take a measurement and look at the profile of the current trim. Then we can compare to our stock and see if we have a match. A very common trim that we see on a lot of...

• Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 5th Wheel Camper with 74-1/2" Mid I-Beam Dimensions
• Hey Chris, thanks for reaching out! The 72" width for the Curt Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13703 is taken from the ends of the mounting bracket (see attached). Since you're needing something wider I recommend checking out the Stromberg Carlson Adjustable Accessory Hitch Receiver # SC45MR which can fit up to a 76-1/2" wide frame and can be bolted or welded on. This also has the same 350 lb tongue weight as the Curt so you'll be able to carry the same amount of accessories...

• Recommended AC Unit for a Palomino Backpack Camper
• Tony I really wish I could but that information isn't available online. You'll need to open up your roof and take some measurements and see what you're working with or contact Palomino directly but I have a feeling they're going to tell you to do the same thing. What I can tell you is the Advent Air RV Air Conditioner System item # ACM135C you were looking at requires a 2-1/2" - 5" thick roof and 16" on center rafters or joists. The AC unit alone weighs 68 lbs so you will want to verify...

• Can Both The Front and Rear Doors on 2023 Coleman Light 2715RL Be Accessed With Adco Olefin Cover?
• The Adco Olefin HD RV Cover # AD27ZR has 3 separate sections on the passenger side which can be opened to access the front or rear door on your 2023 Coleman Light 2715RL. I see you were looking at the larger Cover # AD59ZR but this is going to be too long for your Coleman since the overall length of your camper is 31.92' and the dimensions listed are for the box only.

• Can Reducer Sleeve Be Used With Blue Ox SwayPro
• You definitely don't want to use the Curt since your 2023 Jayco Jay Flight 280RKS weighs 6,495 lbs with nothing in it. With that kind of rating on it I'm guessing you got a reducer and extension. Your typical reducer sleeve does not have a weight rating on it since it doesn't reduce hitch capacity. For example, our note on the Curt # C45405 states that the weight capacity is limited to the rated capacity of your hitch receiver. The same is true for the etrailer # e26YR. If you would rather...

• Can The etrailer Landing Gear Set w/ Handle # RVLG-8HDL Be Motorized
• Hi Terry, A motor # LC142178 and switch # 37213635 can be added to the Landing Gear Set w/ Handle # RVLG-8HDL to make raising and lowering the legs easier. Replacement legs aren't currently available so you'd have to buy the entire set.

• How To Find Gen-Y Pin Box To Gooseneck For a Dutchman Astoria 2993RLF 5TH Wheel Camper
• It does appear you will want the Gen-Y Hitch 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box # GY58GR you found on your Dutchman Astoria 2993RLF. I can verify this is the correct pin box if you can give me all the information off the Lippert tag found on the mounting arm which the pin box bolts too. Otherwise you can verify with a few measurements. You said the bolt spacing is 8" but I think it is actually 7-7/8" from front to back on center. The holes will be spaced 2" vertically and the pin box will be...

• Replacement MORryde Equalizers For A 2024 Forest River RV Sabre 38DBL
• Hi John, When replacing your equalizers it's best to match the bolt hole spacings to prevent having to switch out/alter your other suspension components to fit the new spacing. You'll need to measure the horizontal distance between the shackle strap bolt holes and the vertical distance from the hanger bolt hole down to the center of the shackle strap bolt holes. Let me know what measurements you have on the current equalizers and I'd be happy to look for the correct fit.

• Availbility of Trailer Hitch for RV
• The RV hitches are fairly universal so I can give you some options and you can decide based on dimensions and the style you want. For a frame mounted hitch you will need to know the frame width of your RV. The Curt # C13701 fits frames 18" to 51" wide and the # 13703 fits frames 22" to 72" wide. You could also choose to go with a bumper mount hitch. The Curt # E-100 fits a 4" x 4" bumper and the # C19101 fits a 2" x 4" bumper. You will also need to find the capacity of your RV/bumper...

• Does Using A Hitch Extender Reduce the Capacity of a Trailer Hitch
• Yes, anytime you use a hitch extender or reducer like # HR26 you will lose about 1/3 of your hitches overall capacity. However, since you'll be towing a trailer that weighs between 4,500 to 5,000 lbs, the Brophy Hitch Reducer # HR26 will still work fine because it has a 5,000 lb max capacity. In all honesty, even with the 1/3 capacity reduction on a class V hitch you'd still be in good shape for what you're wanting to do.

• Recommended Adjustable Fit Trailer Hitch Receiver For A 2021 Jayco Jayfeather 30QB
• Hey James, In order to find the correct hitch for your Jayfeather you'll need to measure the distance between the inside of the two frame rails in order to get your frame width. From there we can then look at adjustable fit trailer hitches to find the correct fit. For example, the Curt Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13704 can fit frame widths from 22" to 66" wide. This hitch has a 2" drop from the mounting points so if your trailer has a rear bumper you might have to remove...

• Trailer Hitch Option For Trailer That Bolts Onto Frame
• Hey there Matt; we don't have anything similar to the part you mentioned for a 2 inch trailer frame. There are universal hitches for RVs that you can use that simply bolt onto the frame. Depending on how much capacity you need and the width of your frame you could use the Stromberg Carlson Adjustable Accessory Hitch Receiver # SC45MR. This is for frames 49-1/2" to 76-1/2" wide, has a 200 lb tongue weight rating, and is for accessory use only (think: bike rack). For a different size frame...

• Can The Swagman E-Spec Haul Two E-Bikes On The Bumper Of A Travel Trailer
• The Swagman E-Spec Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # S94FR has a 70lb per bike capacity when mounted to an RV, like your travel trailer. You would need to reach out to the manufacturer of the trailer to determine the weight capacity of the bumper to ensure it can handle the weight of the bikes and rack. If it can then you can use the Curt RV Bumper Mounted Hitch # C19101. If not, then you'll to install an adjustable mount trailer hitch receiver. To find the correct size you'll measure...

• Recommended Trailer Valet for a 9,400 lbs Trailer
• Hey Gene! You're definitely going to want to go with the 12,000 lbs capacity Trailer Valet RVR12 Remote-Controlled Trailer Dolly item # TV59FR. The tongue weight capacity on the item # TVRVR9 is only 900 lbs so it will be way under rated for your Heartland trailer.

• Best Way to Measure Tongue Weight For Weight Distribution
• There can be weight applied to the tow vehicle, so to measure tongue weight for weight distribution at a commercial scale, what you want to do is, with your vehicle and trailer fully loaded like you're headed on a trip, drive on to the scale with all 4 wheels of the truck and record the weight of the truck with the trailer attached. Then unhook the trailer and jack up the trailer tongue so there is no weight on the hitch ball (make sure that the trailer jack is not on the scale). Record...
