Expert Answers about K-Z


  • Best Weight Distribution Recommendation without Chains for 2021 KZ Sportsmen Classic 180TH
  • The best weight distribution system without chains (some argue even with chains) is for sure the Equal-i-zer weight distribution system part # EQ37061ET. This is essentially the system that all other WD companies measure themselves against as it's long been considered to be the best and original WD system. It has a really effective sway control and is extremely high quality so it will perform great and lost a very long time.

  • Cushioned Equalizer and Lift Kit for 2016 K-Z Durango 286BHD
  • For cushioned equalizers you'd want to measure the distance between the left and right bolt holes and we can pick out what you'd need from there. For example if the distance is between 7-1/4 inches and 8-1/4 inches the EZ Flex part # K71-653-00 would work great but if you have something else let me know. This kit comes with wet bolts and brass bushings too so that would be covered as well. Then for a lift kit the Lippert kit part # RR23QX would give you a lift of 2 inches.

  • Which Sidewinder Pin Box Fits 2018 Durango Gold 380FLF
  • Since you have a Lippert 1621 pin box on your 2018 Durango Gold 380FLF the correct Sidewinder is the part # RP61422 that you mentioned. So you'd want to use a fixed hitch with the Sidewinder and since you want a lower height one the Reese part # RP30047 would be a great option as it's height range is 13-1/2 inch to 17 inch.

  • Jacks for Lifting and Lowering 5th Wheel RV Camper
  • The Lippert Scissor Stabilizer Jacks # LC285326 are only stabilizer jacks that should not be used to try and lift or lower your 2014 K-Z Durango 336RE. For lifting the front for connecting and disconnecting the camper there are a couple options to help you with that. The jacks will have a manual override on the top of the jack. You will remove the access cap and use a ratchet to move the jacks. You can also disconnect the wiring on the jack and operate it remotely by powering the jack...

  • Do Trailer Wheels Have a PSI Rating
  • In regards to a trailer wheel and tire assembly, the psi rating comes from the trailer tire and valve stem. Therefore, if the psi rating of the valve stem exceeds that of the trailer tire you will not have any issues. The trailer wheel itself does not have any sort of psi rating. The highest rated valve stem we offer is the Americana Metal, Bolt-In Valve Stem part # AM20906 which is rated for over 100 psi.

  • Recommended High PSI Trailer Wheel for a 2019 K-Z Sportsmen 5th Wheel

In regards to psi, this will come from the valve stem so as long as you use the Americana Metal, Bolt-In Valve Stem part # AM20906 you will be covered over 110 psi. If you don't already have a trailer tire picked out, the Taskmaster Premium Trailer...

  • Recommended Cover for 2015 K-Z Spree Connect 25 Foot Travel Trailer
  • My research indicates that the 2015 K-Z Spree Connect is about 28 feet including the A-frame/coupler, while the body of the trailer is about 25 feet long.

  • Converting From Surge Brakes to Electric Brakes on 2012 K-Z Spree Travel Trailer
  • We can start with the over-under conversion kit since that is pretty simple. Since you have a 2-3/8" axle you will need the Dexter # K71-384-00. This will allow you to mount the leaf springs on top of the axle on your 2012 K-Z Spree. Moving on to the brakes, I'm assuming with your 2-3/8" axle that you have 3,500 lb axles. Make sure to verify this information. Assuming that is the case, you will need the following: -Electric Trailer Brake Kit - Self-Adjusting - 10" - Left and Right Hand...

  • What Would Cause EC Error Code on Fogatti Tankless Water Heater
  • The EC error code mean that the Fogatti Tankless Water Heater # LSB64FR tried to start the pilot light and was unable to due to low gas pressure. You'll want to have a licensed technician check to ensure you are actually getting 11"WC. It very well could be issues with the regulator and a new one would fix the problem like with the part # CAM59005.

  • How To Choose Correct Ball Mount for 1-1/4" Trailer Hitch
  • In order to choose the correct ball mount you need to measure the distance from the ground to the top inside edge of the trailer hitch and then subtract the distance from the ground to the bottom of the trailer coupler while the trailer is level. If the vehicle is higher than the trailer you need a drop but if it's lower you'll need a rise. I have attached a full list of ball mount options below for a 1-1/4" trailer hitch.
