  • Recommended Replacement for Outdoor Shower on Class B Motorhome
  • We do have a handful of replacement shower boxes for RVs. I'm not sure what exactly came on your 2017 Pleasure Way Ascent but all of ours have a 2.5 GPM (gallon per minute) flow rating and are designed for a standard opening of 11" Wide x 6" Tall. If you have a single control knob setup you need the Empire Faucets # EM59FR, otherwise we have the Phoenix Faucets options with a handle holder both in Black # PF266701 and White # PF266201. Attached are a few review videos for you to check out.

  • 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander Trailer Wiring Harness for No Factory Tow Package
  • Since your 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander doesn't come with the factory tow package you need the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C79VV. The module plugs into that 10-Pin connector you found under the cup holder and then the 4-Way harness connects to the plug found under the driver-side rear bumper section. There will be a dust cover you need to remove prior to plugging the 4-Way harness into this connector.

  • Tip for Mounting Wheel to Dutton Lainson Extra Offset Spare Carrier DL22145
  • Hey Charles, yeah so it would be challenging to holdup a wheel to the Dutton Lainson offset spare carrier part # DL22145 but best way would be to first get one bolt through and the nut started and then from there you can use that bolt to hold the wheel so that you can start the other bolts. It is angled like this to help create more room on the trailer.

  • Trailer Ramp Spring Recommendation for 90x74 Trailer Door
  • Thanks for reaching out, Dennis! I recommend going with the 230 lb capacity Conventional Ramp Door Spring for 8' Wide Enclosed Trailer # 362SA8HD for your application. Although I don't know the exact weight of your trailer door, according to my research your door should weigh in somewhere a little over 200 lbs so this ensures that most (if not all) of the weight of your door can be handled by the spring.

  • Is Trimming Required to Install a Trailer Hitch On a 2023 Subaru Outback Wilderness
  • Hey Paul, it looks like in order to install a hitch on your 2023 Subaru Outback you're going to need to do some fascia trimming so that part is going to be non-optionable. As far as your vehicle not having raised rails you'd need to add a set because the Rhino-Rack Rhino-Rack Kayak Roof Rack w/ Tie-Downs # S512 does not come with any bars. Right now I'm not seeing anything for the Subaru Outback without bars, so you'd probably need to get them added via the dealer. Once you have the...

  • Recommended Trailer Wiring Harness for a 2002 Ford Windstar
  • Hey Phil, I think I found what you're looking for but unfortunately it looks like the wiring harness has been discontinued since what looks like 2021 which is probably why you can't find the video. Similarly I've found the Hopkins Plug-In Simple Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # HM40615 which is available still but there is no install video for it but it's pretty easy to install. All you'll need to do is plug into your vehicle's wiring harness which located...

  • Choosing the Correct Replacement Spring for an Enclosed Trailer Ramp Door
  • I'd go with a double spring personally, Scott. These are typically going to be used on more heavy duty applications like your enclosed trailer with a pretty heavy door. In order to get a proper replacement though, you'd need measure the width of your door and find out the weight of the door at it's heaviest point, which I'd imagine isn't more than 185 lbs, so something like # M394FR should work great but I recommend verifying yourself.

  • How to Determine Right Spring For Ramp
  • Hi there John; I'd love to tell you exactly what you need but you have to know the weight of the door, there just isn't any way around it. There isn't a product or kit to completely eliminate the spring and cable so to find the right one you need the weight of the door (which the trailer manufacturer should be able to tell you) and the width of the door. For example an 80" to 96" wide trailer door that is up to 250 lbs would use the Conventional Ramp Door Spring for 8' Wide Enclosed Trailer...

  • Determining The Correct Replacement Entry Door Latches For A Bloomer Horse Trailer
  • Hi, In order to determine the correct replacement door latches for your horse trailer you'll first need to remove the backing plate for the current latch and measure the cutout hole. Once we know the dimensions we can see if there's a compatible fit. For example, the Bauer Products Camper Door Lock # BA54FR you were looking at fits cutout holes 2-3/4" wide x 3-3/4" tall.

  • Will The Bauer Door Lock BA64FR Work With A 5" Wide 4-7/8" Tall Cutout?
  • Hello Doug. The Bauer Products Motorhome Door Lock # BA64FR is definitely going to be your best bet for replacing the latch on your horse trailer door. This latch is made to fit a 5-1/4" wide x 4-1/2" tall cutout. With your hole being only 5" wide you may have to enlarge it slightly in order for this to work. Aside from that there will certainly be enough overlap for it to work. The overall dimensions of the face of the latch are 6-7/8" wide and 5-1/2" tall, so it will easily cover the cutout.

  • Sounds like you want an access door that you could put up near the front of the trailer. The largest option we have is the Multi Purpose Access Door part # SE58VR which is 14 inches wide by 24 inches tall. This might work for you but you might also be looking for something larger than that.

  • Selecting The Correct Side Screen Door Latch For Amerimax RV Screen Doors
  • The easiest way I remember is while standing inside the camper/trailer and facing the door to go outside if the handle is on the right then you need the Right Hand Latch # 37210765. If the handle is on the left you need the Left Hand Latch # 37210775.

  • Tray For Heavy Generator
  • We do not have any sliding trays with a high enough capacity that match those dimensions and work with that door size. The only thing we have that comes close is the 72" long # MR96FR which is designed to be accessed from both sides. However, the tray is only 29-7/8" wide so it is just shy of your 30" measurement. Regardless of that fact, I'm guessing you have a generator compartment with the single door that doesn't run the width of the trailer so the length wouldn't work either. I would...

  • Can Global Link Cam And Entry Door Locks Be Keyed-Alike
  • Hey Curtis, The keyed alike options for both the Global Link Cam Lock # 295-000003 and Entry Door Lock # 295-000002 are specific to themselves so there would not be a way to get them both keyed alike to each other, aside from just luck. These get shipped to us as one key code per box of locks and it's random to make it harder for someone else to have the same key code as you. Selecting the keyed-alike option just means you're getting multiple locks from the same shipment. I typically...
