  • What Storage Cover do You Recommend for My 2021 Coachman Freedom Express 238BHS?
  • According to the specs I have available for your 2021 Coachman Freedom Express Ultra Lite 238BHS, the trailer measures 26 feet long x 8 feet wide x 11 feet tall. If these measurements are correct, I recommend the Adco SFS AquaShed Cover for Travel Trailer - Up to 28-1/2' Long # 290-52244. This cover measures 342" long x 106" wide x 120" tall. The great thing about this cover is that the top layer is constructed with a special fabric that beads water on contact and prevents pooling. The...

  • Front Mat Recommendations for a 2017 Coachman Leprechaun on a Ford E-350 Chassis
  • While we do carry floor mats for your 2017 Coachman Leprechaun with a Ford E-350 chassis, we only carry front mats. If this is what you need, we have you covered! For the absolute best option, I recommend the WeatherTech Front Auto Floor Mats - Black # WT26DV. The material on these mats are far superior than other models. It comes with a High-Density Tri-Extruded construction that provides better liquid-repelling qualities and more grip on your carpet. These mats are custom-fitted to match...

  • Weight Distribution Recommendation for Trailer that Weighs 4,000 lbs
  • All of the components you mentioned will do a great job for a towing setup for your 2017 Ford Flex and they are all linked below for you to check out but to answer your main question about weight distribution the way to do it is to base off of the loaded tongue weight of the setup. So since your trailer would be 4,000 lb you'd most likely have a tongue weight around 400 to 500 lbs so the system I would recommend is the Strait Line part # RP66082 which has a tongue weight range between...

  • Slide Out Awnings For Coachmen Chaparral 392MBL
  • It's a very wise idea to invest in toppers that will protect your slide-out and all of its hardware while the slide is extended. A good rule of thumb with every topper is to have a few inches on either side covered as well as the slide-out itself, as long as there isn't some sort of clearance issue with another constructed part of the camper's exterior. This is to ensure all of the seals and track hardware is fully protected, without any gaps around the top corners. For your larger two...

  • Determining Which Replacement Ratchet Tie Down Fits Older Tow Dolly
  • Thanks for the pictures! We do have a different style ratchet option for your older tow dolly but you will need to measure the size of the bracket on your current ratchet. The most likely option we have is the Replacement Left Side Ratchet Winch # DM5432 or the Right side # DM5433. The mounting plate on these winches measures 2-3/4" wide x 4-3/4" tall as shown in the included diagram. If this will work for you then I also recommend picking up two of the replacement 3-point Tie-Down Strap...

  • Replacement Refrigerator Roof Vent Assembly for Coachmen Catalina
  • Really sorry to hear about the nightmare you are dealing with! Based on the dimensions and amount of screws you mentioned I don't believe we have exactly what you are looking for but maybe if you could get me more of the pictures you have I can see what might work. The closest solution we'd have looks to be a replacement roof vent assembly for the refrigerator with the part # CAM42164 and then the vent lid # CAM42163. The vent assembly measures 24" x 5-1/4" and uses 22 screws for attachment...

  • Is There An Upgraded Trailer Hitch Option for a 2013 Coachmen Mirada Motorhome
  • I do have an option for you but there aren't any upgraded bolt-on trailer hitch options for a 2013 Coachmen Mirada Motorhome. If you wish to replace the hitch that is installed currently, you'll have to use a universal one such as the Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Service Body Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 41990-07. That said, the installation of this hitch requires welding or drilling and bolting.

  • Recommended 2-1/2 Shank For Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Hitch With Around 10 Of Drop
  • You sure can! Weight distribution shanks are not brand specific, you will just need to make sure you use a shank that is the same style as there is two different styles. Based on your picture you will need the # EQ34FR that fits the 2-1/2" receiver on your new Ram 3500 and has 12" drop. The next closest drop available is the # C17132 which has 9-1/4" of drop. I included videos for both of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.

  • Info Needed to Pick Out Replacement Leaf Spring for Trailer Axle
  • In order to pick out replacement leaf springs for your trailer you will need to determine the axle's weight capacity and measure the length and width of your existing leaf spring stack. If the main info tag/plate is missing from the trailer and you can't find any identifiable info on the axle then your best route for verifying its capacity is by measuring diameter of axle. Once you have the capacity needed it's just a matter of measuring your current springs. If you have double-eye springs...

  • Comparing Hollywood Racks E-Bike Racks for Use Behind Motorhome
  • At the rear of a trailer or RV the ride quality is very rough when compared to the ride quality at the rear of a passenger vehicle. Reason being the suspension isn't as sophisticated and there is a longer distance between the rear axle and the rear of the trailer which exaggerates the movement of the trailer when hitting bumps. Some RV setups are more rough than others which is why some of those types are called out like you noticed. Because of that only a few bike racks were designed to...

Since you have 3,500 lb axles the correct over under kit you would need is the part # K71-384-00 which comes with everything needed.

  • Is There a Tail Light Kit for the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack
  • I do have an option for you but there aren't any tail light kits designed specifically for the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack part # HLY84FR. My best recommendation would be to try and use a set of magnetic mounted tow lights like the Flint Hill Goods Magnetic Tow Lights part # FHG96ZR. These would ideally be secured to the base of the rack and would then plug into the trailer connector plug on the vehicle to transfer lighting signals when needed. In regards to the license plate,...
