Expert Answers about Chevrolet RV Skid Wheels


  • Available RV Skid Wheels for Frame and Hitch Mounting
  • Skid wheels should not be mounted to an RV bumper, especially to one that was added as an aftermarket item. Skid wheels need to be mounted to the frame or to a hitch that is mounted to the frame. No RV bumper is rated for the kind of impact a skid wheel is intended to withstand. Your hitch mounted skid wheel like # UF48-979020 is your best bet.

  • Skid Wheels for Use on 54th Wheel RV
  • We do offer skid wheels in both hitch-mount and frame-mount types but not for bumper mounting. Typically an RV bumper will not have the strength to handle the force from a skid wheel taking a good strong bump. On the linked page you can see all available skid wheels which include both bolt-on and weld-on varieties.

  • 5 inch Skid Wheels Recommendation for 32 Foot Class C RV
  • We have a set of weld on skid wheels that are 5 inch in diameter like the part # UF48-979012 but the largest diameter 4 inch set we have bolts on like the part # UF48-979014. The 5 inch wheels would be the correct size for your 32 foot RV as well.

  • Skid Wheel Recommendation for 2017 Cardinal by Forest River
  • I think what you're looking for is the skid wheels part # UF48-979012 since you said you wanted wheels that swivel. These are designed for RVs up to 34 feet in length and would work well for your application.

  • Skid Wheel Options for 2020 Forest River Cedar Creek Champagne Fifth Wheel
  • We do have skid wheels available that do not swivel. However, they are not 5" diameter wheels. I recommend the Ultra-Fab Steel Jumbo Roller for Trailers and RVs, # UF48-979023 with a 2-1/2" wheel that stands 3" if you want a weld on option. If your 2020 Forest River Cedar Creek Champagne Fifth Wheel has a receiver hitch mounted, I suggest ether the Ultra-Fab Hitch Mounted Steel Rollers for RVs w/ 3" tubing, # UF48-979018 or # UF48-979017 if you have 2-1/2" tubing.

  • Skid Wheel Recommendation for 2015 Itasca Ellipse Class A Diesel Pusher
  • From my research, I found that your Itasca Ellipse is just shy of 43 ft long. The only option we currently offer for RV's that are 34 ft or longer is the Ultra-Fab Skid Wheels for Class A RVs 34' and longer - 6 inch Diameter, part number # UF48-979013. However, none of our skid wheels (including these ones) are recommended for use on diesel pusher motorhomes due to the extreme rear-end weight of the motorhome, which would shorten their lifespan. The replacement casters are available separately...

  • Swiveling Skid Wheel Recommendation for 2018 Jayco North Point
  • The only solution we offer that covers most of what you said you need is the Ultra Fab Skid Wheels part # UF48-979013. This is the only swiveling solution that's going to work on an RV that's longer than 34 feet like your 2018 Jayco North Point. The brackets of these need to get welded to the frame though and then from there the wheel assemblies get bolted to them.

  • Replacement Toilet and Skid Wheels for a 2000 Gulf Stream Conquest
  • We currently only carry 2 toilets which are made by Camco. They are parts # CAM41535 which is a 2.6 Gallon option, and # CAM41545 which is a 5.3 Gallon option. As far as skid wheels go, we have a bit more of a selection for you to choose from. I am linking our product selection page where you can filter through by frame mount, hitch mount, roller diameter, and whether you are looking for bolt-on or weld-on skid wheels. A good weld-on option is the Ultra-Fab # UF48-979012 for Class C...

  • Best Option for Gaining Ground Clearance with Travel Trailer to Prevent Scraping
  • Using an over under kit on your trailer's axles will give you a pretty significant rise and would be your ideal solution for gaining ground clearance as long as your axles are currently mounted above your leaf springs. The diameter of your trailer axle will determine the size of the parts that you will need to order. If your axle is 3 inches diameter, the Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit, # K71-385-00, would be a great choice and if your axle is 2-3/8 inch diameter you...

  • 5th Wheel Hitch that Attaches to Gooseneck Ball Option
  • We do not. We do carry the Ultimate 5th wheel connection that would attach to above-bed 5th wheel rails, part # AM3200, but not the model that would attach to a gooseneck ball. We offer a similar item from Demco which we believe is a superior product. The Demco Recon, part # DM8550045 provides dampening for a smooth ride, and offers an actual skid plate and 5th wheel head that provides extra lateral stability and support for the pin box, which places less stress on the 5th wheel's frame....

  • Correct Curt A16 and Slider for 2020 Ford F-250 with OEM Prep Package
  • For your 2020 Ford F-250 with the factory prep package, the Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider for Ford Towing Prep Package, part # C16520-16020 would be the correct one. The height on the Curt A16 is adjustable from 17 to 21 inches (measured from top of the pickup bed floor to the top of the hitch skid plate). The fifth-wheel trailer hitch's height setting is taken by measuring from the ground to the king pin, then from the ground to your truck bed. Then subtract the second measurement...

  • Can I Use the Roadmaster Rollaway on 1-1/4" Hitch Receiver
  • Great question. I honestly can't recall ever seeing a hitch protector like the Roadmaster Rollaway # RM-050 that is designed specifically for 1-1/4" hitches, but that doesn't mean they don't exist. While it won't be a perfect fit, I don't see any reason that you can't use the Roadmaster Rollaway on your 1-1/4" hitch to accomplish your goal of keeping the hitch from dragging when coming out of your driveway. I would recommend putting a few washers on each side (on the inside of the Rollaway...

  • Interior Floor Mat for 2019 Ram ProMaster 1500 with 136-Inch Wheelbase
  • We actually can offer you two choices in an interior mat for your 2019 Ram Promaster 1500 with the long 136-inch wheel base. Both come from Bedrug but they differ slightly in thickness and material so one may well be better for your specific application. Part # VRDP14M is a 3/4-inch thick mat made with a top layer of carpet, which is bonded over a foam core. The carpet layer is non-skid which makes this mat better for heavy loads like delicate furniture that might tend to slide or put...
