Expert Answers about Airstream Globetrotter Travel Trailer


  • Replacing Shank on Equalizer Trailer Hitch from 2" to 2-1/2" Shank with 6" Drop to 10" Rise
  • There are a lot of great options for using a 2" weight distribution system on a 2-1/2" hitch. I recommend Equal-i-zer Weight Dist Shank # EQ90-02-4900. This shank fits 2-1/2" receivers and has a 1,600 lb tongue weight capacity and 16,000 lb gross towing weight capacity, so make sure your trailer is within the towing capacity for this shank. It also allows for up to 10" rise and 6" drop like you were looking for.

  • Recommended Cover For 2021 Airstream Globetrotter 27FB Twin For Sun & Wind
  • The cover most effective against the sun and wind for your 2021 Airstream Globetrotter 27FB Twin is from Adco: - Adco SFS AquaShed Cover for Travel Trailer # 290-52244 The reason I like this cover for your Airstream is due to its construction; the cover is made of three layers of fabric on both the top and the sides to endure the sun, but is vented to ensure it holds up to the wind. The AquaShed is also a contoured fit, so it will conform to the unique shape of your Airstream for the...

  • Weight Distribution/Sway Control Recommendation for 2022 Airstream Basecamp 16X
  • I looked up the weights of your 2022 Airstream Basecamp 16X and based on what I found the best weight distribution system and sway control would be the Reese Strait Line part # RP66083 which has a tongue weight range of 400-800 lbs and has the best sway control for preventing sway before it starts. For a 2 inch hitch ball you'd then want the part # A-90 and you'd be set.

  • How To Carry Bikes On a 2020 Airstream Globetrotter
  • The best option I have for you to carry bikes on a 2020 Airstream Globetrotter is at the back of the trailer with a trailer hitch like the Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 13703. Simply put, you just have too much stuff on the tongue now to be able to fit a bike rack. The Jack-It 2 Bike Rack for A-Frame Trailers part # LC429756 requires the jack to be no more than 22-1/2" tall from the bracket, so 23" won't work. Then for a bike rack, the Swagman Original part # S64152-2...

  • Determining If Trailer Valet Trailer Dolly TVXL25 Is Compatible W/ 2021 Airstream Globetrotter 27FB
  • I took a look at your 2021 Airstream Globetrotter 27FB and it has a GVWR of 7600lbs, so since tongue weight is typically 10-15% of the trailer weight you should see 760-1140lbs of tongue weight with the trailer fully loaded. Since the Trailer Valet XL Trailer Dolly with Chain Drive - 2-5/16" Hitch Ball - 10,000 lbs # TVXL25 you mentioned has a 1000lb tongue weight rating you will need to use a tongue weight scale like the etrailer # e99044, or one of the methods shown in the included help...
