Hey Joe, thanks for the purchase of the B&W Continuum Weight Distribution #BW88FR and both things you are seeing are normal, as there is a limiter in the pressure relief valve. As for the ground clearance, that is also normal, though I completely…
The B&W Continuum Weight Distribution System part #BW78FR requires at least 24" of space on the frame directly behind the coupler and along the side a few inches back from there. This works with most trailers but for some it will not and,…
The RV Propane Gas Detector part #RS64FR is what I recommend using to replace the the Atwood RV Propane Gas Detector part 31013 (Discontinued). The mounting plate for this new detector will cover up any holes you had for the previous so it will be a…
The closest radial tire size we offer to your 4.80-12 bias ply trailer tire would be the Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Trailer Tire #AM10140. This tire will be about an inch taller and wider than what you currently have. You will need to make sure…
The Thule Courier Bike Trailer and Stroller #TH69HC will fit most bikes. But it does require an adapter depending on your bikes set-up. I have included a list of the adapters that we carry as well as some pictures that will help you in determining if…
I have attached a photo for you that shows how a 7-way trailer connector is wired. If you take a look at the trailer side trailer connector you will see a terminal labeled "12V Power". If you were to run a wire part #10-1-1 (per foot) from…
The trailer jack should very much NOT be powered by the breakaway battery. That was likely done by the previous owner for convenience. The breakaway battery is a dedicated battery for the breakaway system only. It needs to be able to apply the…
Hi Mike; since it is a 3,500 lb axle the diameter is likely 2-3/8" which means the #K71-384-00 you looked at is the correct kit. Occasionally they can have a 3" diameter so I recommend checking to be sure. If it is 3" you need the…
The Yakima RidgeBack 4 Bike Rack #Y02458 has a SpeedKnob at the bottom that is designed to spin freely when it's locked and have the friction needed to loosen/tighten the bike rack when it's unlocked. It sounds like the opposite is happening…
There are a couple of things you will want to look at to make sure the Yakima RidgeBack 4 Bike Rack #Y02458 is being properly secured inside the 2 inch hitch receiver on y our vehicle. Getting the kind of movement you described is definitely not…
I have personally installed the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit part #RM-521453-5 on a 2020 Jeep Gladiator and can confirm it is a rather easy install when compared to other base plate installs. If you have the Rubicon model then it will…
With the weight of your camper I recommend the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs #AL35FJ. I prefer these as they have the internal jounce bumper which helps to reduce the bounce that is often associated with towing a trailer and…

How can I safely bike with my young children?
Cycling with kids should be safe, fun, and stress-free. A bike trailer offers a secure, comfortable ride, keeping little ones protected from the elements with weather covers and harnessed seats. Child bike seats attach directly to your bike for a more interactive ride. Choosing the right setup ensures peace of mind, so you can focus on the ride, not the worry.
What accessories make car travel more comfortable for kids?
A smooth ride makes road trips more enjoyable for everyone. Baby mirrors let you keep an eye on rear-facing seats, tablet mounts keep entertainment within reach, and window shades protect kids from sun glare. The right travel setup reduces distractions and keeps everyone comfortable from start to finish.
What’s the best stroller for active families?
Whether it’s a daily walk, a trail run, or a ski trip, there’s a stroller for every adventure. Jogging strollers handle rough terrain with ease, while convertible strollers with ski attachments let you take on winter trails. A well-chosen stroller keeps your child comfortable while giving you the freedom to stay active.
How can I keep my child hydrated during outdoor activities?
When kids are having fun outside, staying hydrated is easy to forget. A hydration backpack lets them carry water hands-free, with easy-access drinking tubes to encourage frequent sips. Finding the right fit keeps kids energized and ready for the next adventure.
What’s the best way to organize gear when traveling with kids?
Packing for family trips doesn’t have to be a hassle. Cargo organizers keep essentials within reach, while roof cargo boxes free up space inside the vehicle. A well-organized setup means less time searching for gear and more time enjoying the trip.
