  • Recommended Weight Distribution System for a 7,400 lbs Trailer
  • The Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution item # BXW0750 has a tongue weight range of 550 lbs to 750 lbs. If your tongue weight is going to be over 750 lbs this system will be under rated and ineffective at addressing any sway control issues. You previously stated that your trailer has a 7,400 lbs gross towing weight. Tongue weight is typically 10% - 15% of your trailer's total weight. I recommended the Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution w/ Sway Control item # BXW1006 because this system...

  • Yes Joseph, the B&W Custom Mounting Brackets for Patriot 5th Wheel Above Bed Base Rails # BWRVR2504 will work fine with your 2023 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 ZR. To complete the rail kit however, you are also going to need the B&W Universal Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # BWRVR3210.

  • Parts Needed For Adding Single Yakima HD Crossbar To Roof Of 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
  • The custom fit BaseClip Fit Kit # Y06122 which fits your 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 extended cab is only designed to roof in the specific places given by Yakima. While you will be able to position the clips slightly forward or rearward of the measurements given by Yakima you will not be able to position them wherever you want due to how the clips are going to fit your door/roofline. Since you are only wanting to add 1 Yakima HD Crossbar # YA34FR you will want the Towers # Y62TR, HD Bar...

  • 5th Wheel Installation/Rail Kit For A 2021 Chevy Silverado 1500
  • Hello Steve. I see that you ordered the B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider # BWRVK3270. What you ordered is the hitch only and does not include an install/rail kit. You have a 2021 Chevy 1500 with a 6.5' bed, correct? If so, you will need the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails # BWRVK2504 to complete your setup. I have linked our installation video for you below.

  • Recommended Tire Covers For An LT275/70R18 Tire Size
  • A LT275/70R18 tire size has a 33.16" diameter and 10.83" width so the Adco Ultra Tyre Gard RV Tire Covers for 30" to 32" Tires # 290-3972 would be just a bit too small. Instead I recommend the Adco Ultra Tyre Gard RV Tire Covers for 33" to 35" Tires # 290-3951. White does a better job reflecting UV rays whereas black absorbs them so you'll have a bit more dry rot protection from a set of white covers over the black. If you still want black to match the trailer then you'll want part # 290-3971.

  • Will Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 With Minimum Air Pressure Raise Truck Bed
  • If the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 # AL88204 is at 5 psi there is practically no pressure so it will not alter the height of the truck bed. Regardless, the air bags are designed to add support which helps keep it level, they don't act as a lift to raise up the height of the bed.

  • Availability of Air Lift Air Bags for 2024 Chevrolet Silverado ZR2
  • Hi Larry; as long as you don't have adaptive ride control you can add the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs # AL88288 to your 2024 Silverado 1500 ZR2. Since you also looked at some Firestone air bags I will say that the Firestone # F2609 are what I would recommend for your truck. Since you have the ZR2 you would also need the # F2366 for installation. The Firestone air bag construction is far superior to the Air Lift making them more reliable overall.

  • Could Air Bag of AL88288 Work in AL88388 for 2024 Chevy Silverado 1500
  • Mixing and matching the brackets and air springs isn't really recommended but you might be able to get a combination to work. If I were you I would just put the complete # AL88288 kit on since that would fit properly and there wouldn't be any guesswork or trial and error. If you go with a bag setup that's too tall they would be engaged all the time and the ride quality would be pretty harsh and the capacity and performance would be hard to anticipate and know if it's safe. These kits aren't...

  • Air Bag and Compressor Kit Recommendation for 2021 Chevy Silverado 1500 Trailboss
  • Hey Scott, so we have found that the Firestone air bags are the highest quality overall so what I would recommend for your 2021 Chevy Silverado 1500 Trailboss is the part # F2609 and you'd have the nicest setup around. For a compressor kit that would allow you to keep the bags maintained at the right pressure while travelling a heavy duty kit like the Firestone Air Command II part # F2219 would be a great option.

  • Power Tailgate Lock and Switch Kit For a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 WT
  • I do have one option for you since the Replacement BOLT Lock Cylinder # BL709231 is for the Tailgate Handle with BOLT Lock # BL5922987 and will not replace the factory lock on your 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500WT. For that cylinder you will need to visit a Chevrolet dealer. We do offer the Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock # PAL8140 that will allow for you to use the power locks on your 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 WT to lock and unlock your tailgate so that you will not need the key.

  • Recommended Air Bags for a 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500 w/ an In Bed Hitch
  • The best air bag suspension kit for your Silverado is going to be the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Plus Air Springs item # AL88288. These air bags are compatible with in-bed hitches and rail kits like the Reese Quick-Install Kit item # RP56015-53 you were looking at. To install these air bags, or any other brand on your 2020 Silverado 1500, you will have to drill some holes. I have linked an installation video below.

  • Suspension Enhancement Recommendation for 2021 Chevy Silverado 1500 with Bed Camper
  • Hey Dave, so I am not sure who you talked to but I definitely would not recommend the severe service Timbren kit for your 2021 Chevy Silverado 1500 since it's going to make the ride quality really rough. Instead I would recommend the Roadactive kit part # RAS54FR which gives you easily adjustable suspension support but unlike other options it actually improves ride quality loaded and unloaded

  • Yes, they do! The only baseplate that will fit the 2024 Chevy Silverado 1500 ZR2 is the Blue Ox item # BLU75CR.

  • 5th Wheel Rail Mounting Brackets For A 2021 Chevy Silverado 1500 4WD 66" Box DBL Cab
  • Hello Dale. If you are needing just a bracket kit for your Huskey 5th wheel rails, I suggest you use the B&W Custom Mounting Brackets # BWRVR2504. This will include everything you need to install your rails on your 2021 Chevy 1500 - frame brackets and hardware. This will work with any of the industry standard 5th wheel rails like Curt, Huskey, B&W, Demco and Reese.
