Expert Answers about RV Skid Wheels


  • Skid Wheel Recommendation for 34 Foot RV That Bolt On
  • For an RV 1 inch away from being 34 feet I would recommend the frame mount skid wheels for 34 foot RVs part # UF48-979013. This will work well with your steep driveway. These are designed to have the plated welded to the frame and then the assembly bolted on like you mentioned wanting to do as well.

  • Replacement Wheel For 6 inch Ultra-Fab Skid Wheels for Class A RVs # UF48-979013
  • Each size wheel is meant for a certain type of motorhome. Class C motorhomes tend to be smaller than the class A motorhomes and that's why the 5 inch Ultra-Fab Skid Wheel # UF48-979012 is for Class C motorhomes and the 4 inch Ultra-Fab Skid Wheel # UF48-979011. So since certain wheels are meant for certain types of motorhomes, it's safe to say that they do not have the same strength capabilities. If you just broke the wheel here is a 6 inch replacement # UF48-001013.

  • Recommended Replacement for 9.5x14 Load Range D Tire for Skid Trailer
  • Your 9.5 x 14 agricultural tires have an overall diameter of 28.9" and a section width of about 9.5". You could use the size that will fit on a 14" wheel is 205/75-14 and while this could very well be used, it is about 1" smaller in diameter and has section width that is 1" less than your current tire. The tire I recommend using is the Kenda Karrier Tire # AM10235 which has a load range of D (2,200 lbs at 75 psi), an impressive max speed rating of 81 mph, and comes with a 5 year warranty....

  • Replacement Lube Plate for Mopar Factory 5th Wheel Hitch
  • You are correct that Curt does manufacture the Mopar factory 5th wheel hitches, so you can use either the # C16722 (12" diameter) or the # 16721 (10" factory lube plate) as a replacement. These are both 3/16" thick so they'll be suitable for almost any 5th wheel hitch, including your Mopar hitch. You'll want to measure the hitch's skid plate to determine which size will give you the most coverage.

  • Manual Replacement for Lippert Kwikee Electric Steps
  • For replacing your Lippert Kwikee Electric Steps I suggest the Lippert Manual Pull-Out Step for RV's, # LC432682. This step is very similar to the Kwikee steps currently however, they will mount slightly different. These will probably require you to drill a few holes as finding a direct replacement with matching mounting holes is probably not possible. These steps have built in water channels and anti-skid tread strips. They have a 300 lb. weight capacity and come with a one year warranty. Please...

  • Tire Rubbing Against Sidewall of 2016 Winnebago Winnie WD1780
  • You're exactly right and that's why we recommend no less than 2" clearance between the trailer sidewall/frame and the tires. Since tires are made of a rubber compound they will flex during travel and you don't want your tires making any kid of contact with the trailer or with each other on a tandem axle setup. I have attached some pictures to demonstrate this. My guess is that your dealer did the math for the diameter of the tires but forgot to take into consideration the tire width. This...

  • Replacement Exterior Ladder for 2001 Jayco Legacy 5th Wheel RV
  • We offer a range of RV exterior ladders such as the Stromberg Carlson # LA-401 that you referenced. This item and both of the other offerings are shown on the link at right.
