- What is the Length and Tongue Weight of Empty Roadmaster Tow Dolly # RM-2050-1
- I have some measurements of the Roadmaster tow dolly # RM-2050-1 for you. From the front tip of the coupler back to the pivot bolt (which is about at the centerline of the axle) is 86-1/2 inches. To the front of the dolly body it is approximately 73 inches. If the distance is not enough you could always use a longer ball mount to increase the distance some.
You may also need a high/low adapter to keep the dolly level. I have linked a help article showing how to measure and a link to the...

- If your trailer has a 2-inch ball coupler you can still use the 1-7/8-inch Rack'Em Trailer Dolly # RA20 to move it to and from your storage position. While it would not be appropriate to tow with different sizes of ball and coupler use of a tow dolly with the smaller 1-7/8-inch ball should be no issue. If you did find that the coupler's fit on the ball was too loose, you could simply install a 2-inch hitch ball in place of the standard ball.

view full answer... - Trailer Dolly Tongue Weight Capacity
- The Rack'em Trailer Dolly # RA20 is rated for up to 500 lbs tongue weight and uses a 1-7/8 inch hitch ball. This style dolly isn't available in larger sizes because the weight of the trailer and lack of brakes becomes a safety risk.
If you have a trailer with a 2 inch hitch ball coupler or 2-5/16 inch coupler, then I recommend using the Trailer Valet XL Trailer Dolly with Chain Drive # TVXL2 or # TVXL25 depending on the hitch ball size needed. These trailer dolly options have an integrated...

- The Extreme Off-Road Ratcheting Trailer Jack # ORJW1SU has a static weight capacity (load support) of 770 lbs but ARK does not do a test for dynamic load rating, so it's hard to say what kind of trailer load this jack could move.
If you're looking for something specifically designed to move your trailer farther distances, I recommend the Trailer Valet XL Trailer Dolly with Chain Drive # TVXL25 with a 2-5/16" hitch ball or # TVXL2 with a 2" ball. Both designed to move trailers with up to...
view full answer... - Trailer Valet XL Minimum Hitch Ball Height
- The lowest height for the hitch ball on the Trailer Valet XL Trailer Dolly with Chain Drive - 2" Hitch Ball - 1,000 lbs TW # TVXL2 (or the # TVXL25 with the larger hitch ball) is 19-1/4 inches at the top of the hitch ball, so you'd be a little tongue high when moving your Scamp Camper. The extra 3-1/2 inches will bring the back end of your camper down, so you will want to account for that when moving the camper with this unit.

- The Trailer Valet XL Trailer Dolly with Chain Drive - 2-5/16" Hitch Ball # TVXL25 actually has a 10,000 lb trailer weight capacity and 1,000 lb tongue weight capacity.
It is very likely that your 20 foot travel trailer will have a weight that is well under 10,000 lbs and a tongue weight under 1,000 lbs; I do recommend confirming this but I would be shocked if a 20 foot travel trailer exceeds those limits.
The Trailer Valet XL # TVXL25 has a 2-5/16" hitch ball but there is also one with...

- The technician you spoke with at the dealership was correct. The Trailer Valet Swivel Jack and Trailer Mover, part # STC-V211 is rated for a maximum of 5,000 lbs and a maximum tongue weight of 500 lbs.
From the research I did I found your trailer weighs about 5,700 lbs dry weight and has a gross weight capacity of 8,000 lbs. The # STC-V211 would not work for you but we may have a solution that will work.

- I contacted Demco and their Wheel Jack for Kar Kaddy Tow Dollies # DM11683 will have a maximum capacity of a little over 100 pounds. This is due to is being specific to their Kar Kaddy 3 (9713046) and Kar Kaddy X ( # DM9713093 ) as an add-on, or a direct replacement part for the Kar Kaddy SS ( # DM9713045 ).

view full answer... - What is the Maximum Tongue Weight Capacity of Trailer Valet Jack and Trailer Mover
- The Trailer Valet, # STC-V211, like you said is rated for 500 pounds tongue weight. It is the overall tongue weight capacity rating of the entire unit and there isn't a way to increase it. You could potentially lower the trailer tongue weight by moving some weight towards the back of the trailer, if at all possible.
A higher-capacity option I have is # TVXL2, rated for 1000 pounds tongue weight. It is currently the highest capacity dolly we have for trailers.
