Expert Answers about Chevrolet RV Skid Wheels


  • Recommended Skid Wheels For 34 Foot 5th Wheel RV Trailer
  • For your 34 foot 5th wheel trailer, I recommend the Ultra-Fab Skid Wheels for Class A RVs 34' and Longer - 6" Diameter - Qty 2 # UF48-979013. Based on the length of your RV, the skid wheels will have a plate that needs to be welded to the frame before the wheels are bolted on. These will swivel and divert the impact from your frame and prevent tail dragging.

  • Recommended Skid Wheels For RV With Long Overhang Towing A Trailer

  • Recommended Skid Wheels for 34 Foot Travel Trailer
  • I can help you figure out which skid wheels are right for your trailer. The way to pick out skid wheels is based off of the length of the trailer. For your 34 foot travel trailer I recommend the Ultra-Fab 6 inch skid wheels # UF48-979013. A good rule of thumb is the longer the RV, and the greater the distance between the rear of the RV and the back axle, the greater the force the skid wheels will have to deal with. The smaller 5 inch skid wheels # UF48-979012 would probably work, but...

  • Recommended Skid Wheels For 36 Foot Tuscany Motorhome
  • The longer the RV, and the greater the distance between the rear of the RV and the back axle, the greater the forces the skid wheels will have to deal with. This is why the larger, stronger skid wheel those used on the Ultra-Fab # UF48-979013 are recommended for RVs greater than 34 feet in length. The smaller # UF48-979015 would probably work, but you would get more life out of the larger skid wheels I recommended.

  • Will the Ultra-Fab Skid Wheels Work in Gravel
  • The Ultra-Fab 5" Skid Wheels part # UF48-979012 and the Ultra-Fab 6" Skid Wheels part # UF48-979013 will both work on a gravel surface but the gravel will be harder on the caster wheels than a normal flat paved surface will. However, if the gravel is packed hard enough then you should be alright. There is always going to be limitations with the skids wheels such as how heavy the RV is, how hard it hits, and how much weight is on the rear of the RV.

  • Determining Size of Skid Wheel for Winnebago Aspect 27K
  • We have our skid wheels listed by size relative to the length of the RV but at the end of the day I would go with whatever size you think would work best. In general the longer RVs like over 36 feet call for 6 inch diameter skid wheels like what comes with he Ultra Fab 6 inch wheels part # UF48-979013 which are weld on. And then for shorter than 34 feet we have the 5 inch diameter setup part # UF48-979012. Since your 2013 Winnebago Aspect 27K is 30 foot I would think the 5 inch setup would...

  • Skid Wheels for 2016 Coachmen Concord 300DS
  • How much lower does the jack sit than the trailer hitch? A hitch mounted skid wheel like the # UF48-979017 could work but these are going to hang down about 3 inches or so. Or a better option would be the Skid Wheels for Low Profile RVs part # UF48-979011 which hang down 5-3/4 inches.
