Hey Kitti, I attached a couple help articles to this page that detail how to determine how much solar power you would need. There are a few factors so there isn't a set number we can give you at this time. Check out the links (down below) and if…
Hello Oscar, thanks for reaching out. We have exactly what you are looking for. The 30153 you mentioned are universal industry standard 5th wheel base rails. We sell this exact rail set as part #RP30153. This comes with both rails, and all of the…
You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…
Hey Pat, The Rhino box definitely is shorter than what most Rver's were hoping for so we get this question all the time. Switching to a MORryde Cushioned pin box designed with a Rhino box bolt pattern unfortunately won't give you extra…
Yes, it is Erik! For a ducted system you'll want the GE Appliances HE RV AC System item #GE55ZR. For a ductless system you'll need the GE Appliances Deluxe RV AC System item #GE92ZR. What kind of RV or trailer are you looking to install a new…
Hey Mike, thanks for reaching out. The 60" x 23" dimension listed for the #MR87ZV cargo tray is the overall dimensions of the tray. The inside dimensions of the tray are 58-1/4" long x 19-7/8" wide.
No, you are exactly correct. Lots of people don't check to see if their bumper is rated for the Curt RV Bumper Hitch item #C19101 to be attached to it. This definitely will not work with your 5th wheel trailer. You'll want to go with one of…
Hey Chris, thanks for reaching out@ Yes, the 5-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 6,000-lb Trailer Axles #TRU32FR can be installed in either an overslung or underslung configuration. Are your current leaf springs in the overslung configuration?
Hi James; the better option would be the Bulldog #BD500162 you were looking at. You can add the Motor and Switch Kit for Stromberg Carlson Landing Gear #LG-217884 to the Bulldog which will give it the same functionality as the #LG-4 while saving you…
Hello Bryan, thanks for reaching out. The MORryde RV Cargo Sliding Tray #MR83FR is 41-3/4" wide overall and this is counting the tracks on each side. The actual opening requirement for this tray would be 38-7/8" since that is the width of…

How can I make my 5th wheel camper more comfortable?
Think about upgrading the inside! Swapping out old furniture for a comfy recliner or sofa bed can make a big difference. Updating your lighting to modern LED fixtures can also make your camper feel cozier and more inviting.How do I level my 5th wheel camper at a campsite?Leveling your 5th wheel camper is essential for both comfort and functionality. Start by finding the most level spot at the campsite. Use a bubble level or a leveling app to check the trailer’s position. If the ground isn’t even, you’ll need leveling blocks or pads to create a stable base under your wheels or jacks.For an easier solution, consider using an electric leveling system like the Lippert Ground Control 3.0. These systems are fully automatic—just press a button, and it adjusts the jacks to level your camper perfectly. They’re great for saving time and avoiding the hassle of manual adjustments.Remember to always check your camper’s batteries before using an electric system since it relies on power to function. Also, keep the jacks clean and lubricated to prevent rust and ensure smooth operation. Once your camper is level, set your stabilizer jacks to keep everything steady while you’re parked. Check out our FAQ if you're looking for more information on landing gear.
Can I tow a 5th wheel with a short-bed truck?
Yes, but you’ll need a sliding 5th wheel hitch. These hitches slide back during sharp turns, giving your trailer extra clearance to avoid hitting your truck cab. It’s a must-have for short-bed towing.
How do I take care of my 5th wheel hitch?
It’s pretty simple! Add a thin layer of high-pressure grease to the moving parts, like the jaws and pivot points, to keep everything working smoothly. You can also use a lube plate to reduce friction between the hitch and the kingpin—it’s a quick, mess-free solution.
What upgrades should I get to improve towing my 5th wheel camper?
There are a few must-haves! Upgraded towing mirrors are great for better visibility, especially when changing lanes or backing up. A pin box upgrade can make your ride smoother and reduce the jarring feeling while towing. These small upgrades can make a big difference in your overall towing experience.
