Expert Answers about Nissan RV and Camper Hitch


  • Can the Kuat Piston Pro and Piston Pro X Be Used Behind a Travel Trailer?
  • I spoke with my rep at Kuat and received this information. Both the Piston Pro item # KU76ZR and the Piston Pro X item # KU98VR Bike Rack are only rated to be used behind a class B RV with the hitch mounted the way you mentioned. They each have the same capacities and limitations when it comes to what vehicles and trailers they can be used on. So there's no difference and the information on our website is incorrect and will be updated. Since you are wanting to use a Kuat bike rack on...

  • How To Mount The Yakima Hold-UP With 2" Hitch Behind a Camper With 1-1/4" Receiver
  • I just have to tell you Ryder, the Yakima HoldUp EVO Bike Rack Y02479 which is the 2" version of the # Y02480 is not rated from Yakima to be used behind any trailer or with any kind of adapter/reducer. With that said it is your rack and your bikes so I cannot stop you from using an Adapter # HTAD to carry the rack. Currently we do not have any RV rated bike racks that fit a 1-1/4" receiver without using an adapter. We do offer the Swagman Traveler XC2 Bike Rack # S64663 which will attach...

  • Bumper Bike Rack Solution for 2015 Jayco X20E Hybrid Camper
  • Hey Charles, so the reason the RV Bumper Bike part # S80605 that you referenced requires 2 inches between the bottom of the trailer body and the top of the bumper is to clear the mounting hardware. So if you are sure you don't have that clearance you wouldn't be able to install the rack. You could possibly modify the body to gain the clearance or a bumper hitch like the part # E-100 with an RV bike rack like the # S36FR could work too.

  • Which Gen-Y 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box on Alliance RV 36V11 w/ Lippert Rhino
  • Hey Bobby, Good question, and to get the right Gen-Y to replace the Lippert Rhino on your new Alliance RV 36V11, the GVWR is all that's required. Since this trailer's GVWR is 16,950, its loaded pin weight will be in the 3,800 lb range (give or take). For that you'd need the Gen-Y with a 3,500 lb - 5,500 lb pin weight capacity, and to replace your Rhino pin box you'd use the Gen-Y Hitch Shock Absorbing 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box # GY23GR.

  • Recommended Storage Cover For A Little Guy MyPod Camper
  • Hello Fredrick. That Little Guy MyPod Camper is pretty neat. It is a bit of a unique shape too. Based on the specs I could find online they are about 11.5' long and a little over 5' tall. Our best option for a cover for this camper is the Classic Accessories PolyPro III Deluxe RV Cover # CA80198. This cover is made for teardrop style trailers up to about 13.5' long. This extra length on the cover should allow plenty of room for your roof rack and vent. The cover also features integrated...

  • Recommended Gooseneck Adapter for a Hitchhiker 5th Wheel Trailer
  • I am sure there is but I would need to see the sticker on your 5th wheel's pin box. It'll have a SN, an RPO number, or an LCI number. This information will allow me to call Lippert and identify what bolt pattern your pin box has so I can find the right replacement part. For example the Gen-Y Hitch Shock Absorbing 5th Wheel Pin Box item # GY46FR fits a Lippert 1621 bolt pattern which is pretty common amongst newer RV's. If you could email me a picture of that sticker I would be more then...

  • Will The Folding, Bumper Spare Tire Mount # TR-2 Fold Down Enough To Clear A Ramp Door
  • Hey Paul, The Folding, Bumper Spare Tire Mount # TR-2 only folds down about 45 degrees so it likely wouldn't give you enough room to open your ramp door. The Roadmaster Spare Tire Mount # RM-195125 is a hitch mounted option that that rotates down to the side that could potentially work depending on how low your trailer hitch sits. There's also the Lippert Winch and Crank Extension RV Spare Tire Carrier # LC74HD that you could mount below the trailer completely out of the way of the ramp...

  • Will The Bauer Products Sun Out RV Roof Vent Shade Work With A Slightly Domed Roof?
  • Yes, the Bauer Products Sun Out RV Roof Vent Shade # BA89VR will work with the slightly domed roof/ceiling in your Keystone Cougar. This sun shade will work with virtually any standard 14" x 14" roof vent, so as long as your camper uses the same standard vent size it can be made to fit.

  • Recommended Camper Tie-Downs For A 2007 Dodge Ram With A TorkLift SuperHitch
  • Hey Jason, The TorkLift Camper Tie-Downs # TLR3503 would be a compatible fit with the TorkLift SuperHitch Original Trailer Hitch Receiver # TLD1101 and would actually mount to the four bolt holes in the frame brackets of the hitch that are around where the cross-member slots through. If you don't have running boards or they at least stop at the end of the cab then you can use the TorkLift Camper Tie-Downs # TLD2102. If you have running boards that extend under the bed then you'll need...

  • Recommended TorkLift SuperHitch for a 2008 Dodge Ram w/ Welded Factory Hitch
  • There's only one option that will fit your 2008 Ram truck with a welded on hitch that will work with the SuperTruss hitch extensions. It is the TorkLift SuperHitch Magnum Trailer Hitch item # TLD1102-30 so I highly recommend it. This 2-1/2" hitch combined with your factory 2" hitch will allow you to use a SuperTruss Hitch Extension like item # TLE1536. There are also many options available for camper tie-downs that I have linked below.

  • Will The TorkLift Camper Tie Downs From A 2022 F-350 Carry Over To A 2024 F-450?
  • Hey Greg, you actually will be able to use the same Rear Tie Downs # TLF3008 for both the 2022 F-350 and the 2024 F-450. You will need to get some new Front Tie Downs for the 2024 though, since the front tie downs form the 2022 will not carry over. The correct Front Tie Downs for the 2024 Ford F-450 Super Duty with a factory hitch and no steps are as follows: TorkLift Camper Tie-Downs - Custom Frame Mount - Front # TL87CR

  • Is The Advent ACCAR135 a Heat Pump Or Will it Require a Heat Strip?
  • The Advent Air Replacement RV Air Conditioner # ACCAR135 along with all the other air conditioners we currently have do not have a heat pump. We do offer the Heat Strip # ACMHD which fits the Advent Air Conditioner. Since the Carrier AC's are virtually obsolete on campers you might want to consider switching to the Furrion Chill HE RV Air Conditioner System # FR67FJ which will give you 2 AC and a central thermostat. We also have the Heat Strip # FR27PR you can add to one or both units...

  • Finding a Replacement Awing Drive Head Pin For a 2011 Heartland RV Greystone 32RL 5TH Wheel Camper
  • I am going to need you to confirm what awning you have on your 2011 Heartland Greystone 32RL. The Replacement Drive Head Pin # LC93FR is going to fit all Solera 12V, 18V, and Smart Arm electric RV awnings with Regal heads. If you have a Dometic or Carefee awning those pins we currently do not carry. The ID label for the awing information is going to be on the awning tube under the fabric so you will have to unroll it to find the tag information. With this and the tag off the inside of the...
