Expert Answers about CrossRoads Cruiser Fifth Wheel


  • Changing to Higher Load Range G ST235/80R16 Tires on 5th Wheel Trailer
  • A higher Load Range E tire is going to have a larger load capacity, which will technically allow the tire to run a bit cooler under load during travel. A radial tire will also do a better job of running cooler than a bias ply alternative. Since excessive heat is the primary cause of trailer tire failure going up a bit in capacity isn't a bad idea at all. Based on my research it looks like your 2014 Crossroads Cruiser uses ST235/80R16 size tires. If this is correct I recommend the Provider...

  • 2011 Crossroads Cruiser 32BL Landing Gear Replacement Recommendation
  • Typically for replacing Venture brand landing gear on a trailer the Stromberg Carlson landing gear set part # LG-183708 is all that's needed and normally bolts right up.

Otherwise you could just have the brackets removed from your trailer by a qualified welder and then install the brackets that come with the Bulldog Tandem Landing Gear Set # BD500162. Either way this landing gear set would work well for you,...

  • Trailer Hitch Options For A 2004 Crossroads Cruiser
  • We do have a hitch you can put on the back of your 2004 Crossroads Cruiser. There is not any kind of custom fit hitch available, but you can use an adjustable hitch like the Curt # 13703.

  • Lug Nuts For The Viking Aluminum Trailer Wheel
  • I recommend using the Trailer Wheel Lug Nut # AM90070 with the Provider ST225/75R15 Radial Tire w 15" Viking Aluminum Wheel # A225R6FPS. The stainless steel finish will match the wheel better than chrome against the wheels. This lug nut has a 1/2" x 20 thread pitch which is the most commonly used size on trailer hubs. You will want to confirm this by either checking with a gauge or the trailer manufacturer. We also have a Wheel Lock Set # RG01-150 for the same size wheel lugs. This is...
