  • How To Triple Tow with a 5th Wheel Trailer
  • The Curt Adjustable Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13701 will need to be mounted to the frame rails on your 2017 Keystone Cougar 5th Wheel Trailer, not the bumper. The bumper is not a suitable place to mount this hitch but the frame rails are. If you would like to use a bumper mounted trailer hitch and you have a 4" x 4" bumper that the manufacturer says can be used for towing then you can use the Curt RV Bumper 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver part # E-100 instead. However, the manufacturer is...

  • Upgrading from 13,500 to 15,000 Btu RV AC on a 2020 Keystone 30RLS Half Ton
  • It really just depends on your setup, I recommend simply replacing the unit with one of the same size. This is because the manufacturer usually selects the best size based on the dimensions of the RV. That said, if you found the factory selected size to be lacking you can upgrade. However, you'll need to keep in mind the unit draws more power so you may need to check the existing wiring and circuits to be sure they are up for the task, the Advent Air Replacement RV Air Conditioner for Dometic...

  • How to Raise Rear of 2017 Keystone Cougar 283RETWE
  • Typically upgrading your leaf springs implies increasing the capacity, but that isn't going to raise the back of your 5th wheel. The only difference new leaf springs would make is if your current leaf springs are worn out and flat. Installing new leaf springs would be a good idea either way if that is the case. To find a replacement you would need to measure the length of your current leaf springs and also know your axle capacity. The # e27SR you looked at is intended to replace a 26"...

  • Solera RV Slide-Out Awning Measurements for 2021 Keystone Cougar Half-Ton Fifth Wheel
  • For determining the proper size Solera Slider you need, to measure the total width of your slide room from the outside including the flange then add a minimum of 5" (2-1/2" each for the left/right side overhang). You can have greater than 2-1/2" overhang if you want, but it is suggested that you do not go any less. Since you have done so with resulting measurements of 59" and 149-1/2" you need an awning no less than 64" and 154-1/2". You can go beyond the overhang of 2.5" each side if you...

  • Bearing Kit for Lippert 4400 Trailer Axle
  • The Lippert 4,400 lb axles use the same bearings and seals as a Lippert 3,500 lb axle so you can use the Bearing Kit for #84 Spindle part # BK2-100 which comes with bearings, races, and seals. It looks like the 85 number you have found in your part number is based on the hub face to hub face dimension of the axle.

  • Is There RV Cargo Carrier that Can Attach to Frame Instead of Bumper
  • While we don't have a way to mount the Bumper RV Cargo Carrier # e83YR to the rear of an RV without a bumper a similar solution that could work for you would be a frame mounted carrier that mounts under the RV like with the Lippert part # LC175180 which gives you two bins that mount on underside of the frame that measure 27-7/8" long x 17" wide x 8" tall.

  • Recommended Spare Tire Holder & Cover For a 2022 Keystone Cougar Half-Ton 29RLI 5th Wheel RV Camper
  • I recommend using the Roadmaster Spare Tire Carrier # RM-195125 on your 2022 Keystone Cougar Half-Ton 29RLI 5th wheel. The CE Smith Offset Spare Trailer Tire Carrier # CE27310G you found is designed to mount to A-Frame style trailers and will only allow for up to a 5 on 4-3/4" bolt pattern. Your Cougar uses a 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern and there is not an exposed frame like on travel trailers. I see that your Cougar comes with a 2" receiver from the factory which will allow you to use the...
