Skid Wheel Recommendations for a 2016 Jayco JayFlight 23MB
Question:
Hi, What product of yours do you recommend as skid wheels for our 4inch square rear bumper? Should we get a set of 4, or will a set of 2 work? Thank you!

Expert Reply:
The bumper on your trailer is likely not really rated for the stress of making contact with the ground via rollers. I recommend attaching some skid wheels directly to the bottom of the frame. If you don't mind having a professional welder install the wheels I recommend something small such as # UF48-979023.
For a bolt-on application for RVs/trailers up to 30 feet long I recommend # UF48-979011; for models up to 34 feet long, # UF48-979012, and for models over 34 feet long # UF48-979013.
A set of 2 wheels should be sufficient for most applications.
