Expert Answers about Freightliner


  • Recommended Portable Solar Panel System For Charging An AGM Battery
  • There are portable solar panel system available that will allow for exactly what you're wanting to do. The only thing you'll need to know is just how much power you're needing to replenish with the system in a day. The Go Power Eco Solar Charging System - 10 Watt Solar Panel # 34273836 you were looking at has to be mounted to something because it doesn't come with a stand and is only a 10 watt panel, so you'll only replenish approximately 3.42 amp hours a day in peak conditions. The Go...

  • Trailer Hitch and Bike Rack for Motorhome to Carry 70 lb Electric Bike
  • While there is a way for you to carry a 70 lb electric bike on the back of a motorhome, there are no ladder-mounted bike racks that have the capacity to carry a 70 lb bike. Instead you will need to add a trailer hitch, the Multi-Fit Motorhome Trailer Hitch # 5350, which you can do so long as your motorhome has a chassis from 24" to 46" wide, or the Multi-Fit Motor Home Trailer Hitch # 82201 for frame widths from 47" to 71" wide. Once you have the right hitch you will simply need a bike...

  • 2007 Gulfstream Vista Cruiser Freightliner Sprinter Chassis Sway Bar and Suspension Enhancement
  • For your 2006 Freightliner Sprinter Chassis I recommend the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar Item # RM-1209-132 which will minimize side-to-side movement to improve overall stability of your vehicle and diminish effects of crosswinds, passing motorists and shifting cargo. I also recommend adding Sumo Springs Solo Custom Helper Springs - Rear Axle Item # SSR-329-47 to help with the stability in the rear of your vehicle and help prevent you from bottoming out. I've attached some videos that...

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver/Bumper Combination For a 2011 Freightliner M2 Cab and Chassis
  • Based on the information I could find on your 2011 Freightliner M2 cab and chassis it appears you have a 34" wide frame. The Buyers Products Flatbed/Flatbed Dump Hitch Plate Bumper # 3371809050 is specifically designed to fit a 34" wide frame. It has bolt hole which you can use to attach to your frame but welding is also required. You are able to bolt on either a 2" Receiver # 3371804055 or Pintle Hitch w/ 2-5/16" Ball # BP38FR.

  • Anti-Sway Bar Fit for 2003 Fleetwood Excursion on Freightliner XC Chassis
  • Based on my research your 2003 Fleetwood Excursion is on a Freightliner XC chassis, and this is important because it's actually the chassis that determines the fit for things like stabilizers and anti-sway bars. With that in mind, there isn't a steering stabilizer that fits your motorhome, but there is an ever better option to improve your ride with an anti-sway bar. You will need to confirm that your 2003 Fleetwood Excursion has a Freightliner XC chassis with air suspension, and if so...

  • Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System for 2019 Renegade Verona LX on Freightliner M2 Chassis
  • Glad to hear that you've enjoyed your past experience with the SumoSprings on your last motorhome. The Timbrens are constantly compared to/against the SumoSprings so since you liked the SumoSprings you'll enjoy the ride quality here as well. The Timbren Suspension System # TFRM2L is for if you have a leaf spring suspension, but from what I could tell in my research I believe your 2019 Renegade Verona LX has an air spring suspension so you'll want the Timbren part # TFRM2A instead. Aside...

  • Roadmaster RM-RBK14-RSSA Steering Stabilizer for 2002 Alfa Motorhome on Freightliner XC Chassis
  • If your motorhome has the air suspension, solid front axle and is not equipped with the 150 gallon fuel tank, the RM-RBK14-RSSA steering stabilizer you mention is the correct part for your application. Keeping the steering wheel centered and fighting cross-winds is exactly what the stabilizer is designed for, and if it is a fit for your motorhome, it should work very well for you. You can certainly adjust your tire pressures if you care to, I am a firm believer in checking for the simple...

  • Can a Derale Transmission Cooler be Used with an Allison 2200MH Transmission on a Motorhome
  • On the Allison transmissions you would need to go to a larger hose and fittings to avoid any problems when using a transmission cooler such as # D13403. But what I recommend is to use core # D54012 which does have -12AN fittings already. The largest inner diameter hose we have is 1/2 inch such as # D15799 so if you do need larger hose it would need to be obtained locally.

  • Steering Stabilizer for a 2002 Coachman Cross Country Motor Home on a Freightliner Chassis
  • Roadmaster Reflex Steering Stabilizer # RM-RBK18-RSSA is designed to fit 2006 - 2013 Freightliner Motorhomes with air suspension and solid front axles. So it wouldn't fit a 2002. For a 2002 Freightliner motorhome with air suspension and solid front axle you would use # RM-RBK14-RSSA.

  • Trailer Hitch and 7-Way Wiring Harness for Freightliner M2
  • There are no specific fits for a 2013 Freightliner M2 for a hitch or wiring, so your best option is a weld-on hitch. If your frame is up to 44 inches you can use the Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Service Body Trailer Hitch Receiver # 41990-16 for 16 inch tall brackets or Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Service Body Trailer Hitch Receiver # 41990-07 for 7 inch tall brackets. Then for a 7-way you will need to hardwire in the Vehicle Wiring Harness # C59236 with the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer...

  • Coupler Lock and Secuirty for Bolt-On A-Frame Coupler
  • When using a bolt-on coupler such as the Demco # DM14793-52, trailer coupler locks such as the Master Lock # ML389DAT are added to prevent trailer theft. These locks are an inexpensive and large deterrent to those looking to steal a trailer. There is no absolute way to prevent theft of a coupler if somebody was determined enough, but it would be extraordinarily unusual for someone to go through the amount of time, trouble, and risk of unbolting a coupler for the purposes of taking the coupler...

  • Recommended Trailer Wiring And Brake Controller For A 2007 Freightliner M2
  • To install a trailer brake controller and 7-way connector on your 2007 Freightliner M2 you'll need the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller # ETBC7 along with additional 10AWG # 10-1-1 wire to run the length of your vehicle. Since you won't have a 4-way wiring harness you'll need to first install the Hopkins Endurance 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector # HM48110. This can be spliced into your tail lights for a quick and easy installation that will make wiring in the # ETBC7...

  • How To Choose Correct SnapPads for Renegade Verona Coach
  • In order to choose the correct SnapPads for your motorhome you must measure and note their shape. If you know the brand of leveling system that would certainly help as well. Unfortunately, we cannot state exactly what SnapPads fit any one particular trailer as there are no records of this outside of maybe the manufacturer and even then it could be unclear. The SnapPad EQ Plus Jack Pads for Equalizer Leveling System part # SP64FR84 for example fits Equalizer Leveling Systems with 10" round...

  • Does Edge EZ Programmer Need OBD-II Port to Install on Freightliner?
  • The Edge EZ for Dodge Cummins 5.9L, 24V # EZD1000A does not require an OBD-II port to install, as you can see in the linked instructions; you will only need to plug the EZ connectors into the ECM Data Link connection and MAP sensor. This programmer is designed to be used with a 5.9L Cummins 24V engine like you have so it will work for you.

  • 20x10 Manual Awning For Race Car Trailer
  • I recommend using a Solera Destination Manual RV Awning kit Item # LCV000335274-334719. This is a 20' wide awning that comes with everything to get it installed. The canopy extends out 9.8'. Each arm is spring assisted to ease rolling out the canopy. The fabric is a 13.5-oz vinyl that won't crack or fade. The awning kit also comes with an aluminum canopy shield to protect the canopy when it is rolled up.
