  • Should I Deflate The Air Bag Of The TrailAir Pin Box When It's in Storage
  • If you did leave air in the bag of the Trailair pin box like part # LC369535 it wouldn't be a big deal however, we do recommend to deflate the bag to keep the pressure off the bag and fittings while it's in storage. You definitely want to cover the pin box to avoid UV ray damage that causes dry rot of the rubber.

  • Recommended RV Cover For A 2022 Jayco Hummingbird 17RB In Nevada
  • The specs for a 2022 Jayco Hummingbird 17RB show it being 19'-10" in length so I recommend the Adco Polypropylene Storage Lot RV Cover for Travel Trailer # 290-74840. This storage lot cover works best for long-term storage in all climates. The heavy-duty, 4-layer fabric protects against UV rays, dirt, wind, and snow. The slip-seam strap system ensures snug fit and prevents damage from high winds and secures with cam buckles. The UV-treated 4-layer polypropylene breathes to eliminate moisture...

  • Malone Trailer for Hauling 40 Inch Wide Fishing Kayaks
  • I have a solution for you but no I am sorry to say the Malone MicroSport Trailer with Saddle Style Carriers for 2 Kayaks - 800 lbs item # MPG461GU. That trailer only has 78" crossbars and it would not be wide enough to accommodate your 40" wide kayaks. I recommend instead the Malone 2 Tier MegaSport Trailer with V-Style Carriers for 2 Kayaks - Storage Containers - 1,000 lbs item # MPG550-TM. The open design of the trailer will easily accommodate your two 40 inch wide kayaks. The Malone...

  • Kayak Carrier and Cargo Bag Recommendation for a 2008 Hyundai Santa Fe with Factory Roof Rack
  • Yes, you can use the Thule Stacker Kayak Carrier, # TH830, on your 2008 Hyundai Santa Fe as long as the factory roof rack includes crossbars that run side to side. If your roof rack does not have crossbars, then I would recommend adding the Yakima Roof Rack, # Y00409, # Y00145, # Y03536 and # Y06006. These crossbars will attach to the flush mounted side rails and provide mounting points for the kayak carrier. The cargo bag that I would recommend for you is the Thule Outbound Roof Top...

  • According to my research, your 2018 R-Pod 179 travel trailer is 20' long x 96" wide x 115" tall. Therefore, for a storage cover that may work well for you I recommend taking a look at the Classic Accessories PolyPRO 3 R-Pod Trailer Cover part # CA80-197-171001-00 as this cover is specifically designed to fit RP-179 R-Pod travel trailers. As long as the distance from the top of your A/C vent to the bottom of the cab on the trailer is no more than 93", then the above cover will work well...

  • Recommended RV Storage Cover For A 2021 Winnebago Micro Minnie 1700BH Travel Trailer
  • The best RV storage cover we currently offer is Adco's Olefin HD line. This cover has a bright white Olefin top to block direct sunlight you experience in Sand Diego. This will help with fading and cracking of your trailer's paintjob as well as with drying out the sealant on every part of your trailer, which can allow leaks. The triple-layer sidewalls have a breathable design to help vent out moisture and prevent mold growth. They're also cut into zippered panels that will allow you to...

  • How To Protect Trailer Tires During Winter Storage
  • To protect the tires from flat spots and damage the best practice is to raise the tires off the ground during winter storage. I recommend TrailerLegs Tire Saver Stands for Trailers w/ Leaf Spring Suspensions part # 326-TRLLG-2 for a single axle or part # 326-TRLLG-4 for a tandem axle. These stands do a great job at keeping the tires off the ground to avoid flat spots and dry rot. I still recommend to still use covers on the tires depending on what size wheels you have to protect the tires...

  • Will a Bulldog Powered A-Frame Trailer Jack Fit a 2013-2014 Heartland North Trailer Travel Trailer
  • To determine if the Bulldog powered A-frame trailer jack # BD500200 will fit your North Trailer 32buds, you will need to measure from the center of the jack hole opening back to that storage cover on the tongue. If it is more than 4 inches then the jack will fit. Any more than less inches and it will interfere with that cover on the tongue. The mounting pattern for the bolts will be the same as the manual jack on the trailer now.

  • I recommend Adco Olefin All-Climate + Wind RV Cover for Travel Trailer - Up to 22' Long - Gray part # AD47ZR for the 2016 Livin Lite CampLite Travel Trailer. The Adco Olefin top will keep the roof of your Livin Lite trailer protected from harmful UV rays that can cause dry rot on other covers. I have attached a video for your reference. As far as being able to walk on the roof of the travel trailer that is something that really depends on the amount of roof support the trailer has. I...

  • This box is weather resistant but not waterproof. Under most circumstances your items will not get wet in a Yakima SkyBox 21, but in some driving rainstorms that may not be the case.

  • Recommended Protective Tire Storage covers for 235/80-22.5 Tires on Class A Motorhome
  • Your 235/80-22.5 tires are a bit over 37 inches in diameter. I'd recommend the Adco Tyre Gard in black, part # 290-3970 for tire diameters between 36-39 inches. As you can see in the linked video, the covers are easy to install, using the included bungee ball cords which provide a snug fit. These covers will do an excellent job of protecting your expensive tires from UV radiation which dries out the rubber compounds in the tires which leads to dry rot and cracking. The same cover is also...
