Expert Answers about Dodge Van


  • Front Bumper Bike Rack for RV
  • We currently do not carry any bike racks that are specifically for the front bumper of an RV. There are a couple reasons for this; bikes mounted on the front of the vehicle can block your line of site, headlights and turn signals and the airflow to your engine. If your RV has a continuously welded steel bumper that is between 4"-4-1/2" wide you could make the Swagman Around the Spare 2 Bike Rack # S80501 work, but again, I'm not sure it would be the safest option for you unless you mounted...

  • Thule DoubleTrack Pro XT Bike Rack for 2 Bikes Spare Tire Clearance
  • The Thule DoubleTrack Pro XT Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount Item # TH92BJ has approximately 6" of clearance between the hitch pin hole and inner bike. If your tire sticks out past that then this rack will not work for your vehicle. You could add a hitch extender but that would reduce the weight capacity of the bike rack by 50%. I did speak with a Thule tech and he stated they have a hitch extender that will be coming out in the next few months that will not...

  • Rear Anti-Sway Bar for a 1996 Dodge Roadtrek
  • The Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar part # RM-1129-111 is a fit for a 1996 Dodge Roadtrek with or without water tanks to the best of my knowledge. That said, these water tanks may have to be removed for installation but only temporarily to get the anti-sway bar in place so this is still an option for you. If you want to go with the RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit part # RAS4612-DV this would work as well but it will also stiffen the rear suspension as would any...

  • Leaf Spring Suspension Helper Kit for 1990 Dodge B250 2WD Van
  • We do have a leaf spring suspension helper kit for your 1990 Dodge B250 2WD van, SuperSprings Suspension Stabilizer and Sway Control Kit # SSA7MTKT and others types that are shown on the linked page, but the RoadActive RAS # RAS4611-DV is not a fit for your B250. The SuperSprings # SSA7MTKT bolt on above your OEM leaf springs and reinforce them to reduce sway from passing trucks, wind and when cornering. They adjust themselves automatically based on the load on your OEM springs and they...

  • Anti-Sway Bar for 2001 Roadtrek 190 Popular On Dodge B350 Van Chassis
  • Roadmaster lists the # RM-1129-111 anti-sway bar as a fit for a 2000 Dodge B350 van or van cutaway chassis. They couldn't tell me if your generator would interfere, but you should be able to check out the installation instructions to determine if the generator would prevent installation. I'll also provide the installed photos we've received from a customer, which should also be helpful. As you can see in the photos, the bar sits directly below the rear axle, then connects at the frame...

  • Front Mounted Trailer Hitch Compatibility on 1985 Dodge B350 Van
  • There is not a custom fit trailer hitch for the front of your 1985 Dodge B350 Van. There is also not a hitch that can be mounted to a vehicle bumper safely as they are not rated for load weight. The RV bumpers are sometimes rated for weight so there are the receivers you mentioned, but they are restricted with the tongue weight and are definitely not a fit for your van. When used on the application intended they work well and have warranties for any issues. My recommendation is to...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver for a 2000 Dodge Van 3500
  • I have attached a photo that shows where and what holes the Class III Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 75140 uses to install on your 2000 Dodge Van. If the back-up tank that you mentioned uses these holes then we would not have a custom fit hitch for you unless you removed the tank and relocated it to another part of the vehicle. The other option you have would be to install a universal trailer hitch receiver that can install on the outside of the frame rails like the Draw-Tite...

  • Can Curt Cargo Carrier be Extended 14 Inch for use on Van With Spare Tire
  • You can absolutely extend the 22-1/2x49 Aluminum Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches # C18100- all you need is a 14" hitch extender and you'd be set. For that I recommend the Curt Hitch Extender for 2" Trailer Hitches - 14" Long # C45795. If you meant that it was a total of 14" from the hitch pin hole to clear the spare tire, since the cargo carrier measures 10-3/4" from the hitch pin to the closest part of the carrier you could use a smaller extender, the Yakima StraightShot Hitch Extension...

  • Carr Tube Steps Recommendation For 2000 Dodge Ram Van 1500 To Replace Running Boards
  • I called my contact at Carr and asked about your 2000 Dodge Ram Van 1500. They told me that they do not have specific steps designed for your van but part # CARR103991 may work for you. These are black powder-coated aluminum. The steps platform measures 7 inches long X 3-1/2 inches wide. You can take a look at the attached installation instructions and see if the mounting location on your van is the same as those for the other vehicles these steps are designed for.

  • Rear Anti-Sway Bar for a 1990 Dodge B250 Class C RV Cutaway
  • Roadmaster anti-sway bar # RM-1129-111 is designed to fit the 1990 Dodge B250 Class C RV Cutaway models. It sounds like that is what you have so this is the correct anti-sway bar. Drilling is required to install this anti-sway bar. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you. The picture on the product page is just a generic one of a sway bar on a vehicle and is not the same as the one that will go on your RV.

  • Does Roadmaster Rear Sway Bar for 2000 Dodge Van 3500 Roadtrek Take Up More Room that Stock Bar
  • To replace your factor sway bar on your 2000 Dodge Van 3500 Roadtrek with the part # RM-1129-111 that you referenced would not require any more room than what your current sway bar is taking up. The bar will be slightly thicker but the clearances behind your rear axle are not tight enough to cause that to be an issue.

  • Replacement RV Radio for 1999 RoadTrek Popular 170 RV
  • From what I was able to find, the RoadTrek has a what looks like a factory Dodge radio that does not conform to any standard single or double DIN sizing, so whatever you would use you would likely need to fabricate or purchase some sort of mounting bracket. With that said, I think the best solution is going to be using something like the Furrion # DV3300SBL, which is also bluetooth compatible but has a mounting dimension of 7-1/16" long x 2" tall x 6" deep. If you can find out what the...

  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring for a 1997 Dodge B3500 Full Size Van
  • Curt trailer hitch # 13590 is designed to fit 1997 to 2003 full size Dodge vans with the factory step bumper. Your 1-ton van is a full size model so as long as it has the factory step bumper the hitch will fit. If it has the standard bumper and not a step bumper then the Curt hitch you would need is # C13041. For either hitch I recommend etrailer ball mount kit # EBMK2216. It comes with a ball mount with a 1 inch rise or 2 inch drop, 2 balls, and hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag....

  • Can Active Suspension Kit be Used With Rear Anti-Sway Bar on 2000 Dodge MaxiVan 3500
  • The RAS Kit # RAS4611-DV can work in conjunction with the Roadmaster Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1129-107. They have similar purposes but I think you'll gain a little bit from the RAS kit over the anti-sway bar. The RAS will strengthen the leaf springs and help with overall suspension. This will in turn help with sway like the anti-sway bar will. In addition, the RAS will reduce body roll while cornering which is often a major concern with a heavily loaded van. Keep in mind neither will increase...

  • Adding a 4- and 7-Way Trailer Connector to a 2003 Dodge Van
  • The multi-plug connector # 20135 does have the mating rectangular connector that will plug into the one on your 2003 Dodge Van. This connector is meant as a replacement. If your van did not come with a factory installed 7-Way, then it is possible that only the light functions will be active. If the van did not come with a factory trailer connector and the pins on that rectangular connector are not active (which you can test with a circuit tester such as # PTW2993) then to add a 4- and...
