Recommendations For Skid Rollers on 39 Foot Forest River 5th Wheel- I would recommend the Ultra-Fab Skid Wheels, part # UF48-979013, for your 39 foot Forest River 5th Wheel. These larger 6-inch diameter wheels will bolt onto the frame of your 5th Wheel to help prevent the tail from dragging.
The longer the RV/5th Wheel, and the greater the distance between the rear of the RV/5th Wheel and the back axle, the greater the forces the skid wheels will have to deal with. This is why the larger, stronger skid wheel like those used on the Ultra-Fab # UF48-979013 are

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.

The smaller # UF48-979015 would probably work, but you would get more life out of the larger skid wheels I recommended.

Using Ultra Fab Hitch Mounted Skid Wheels on Slide-Out Bike Rack Installed on Travel Trailer- You would not want to use a skid wheel on anything that would extend off of the rear of your travel trailer.

Using the wheels on a bike rack will actually reduce the ground clearance at the back of the trailer, and would cause the rack to bend, as it is not an integral part of the trailer like the rece
