  • Is Thule T2 Pro XTR Bike Rack Rated For Use on Motorhome
  • Good question, and I checked directly with Thule and can verify for you that yes, the T2 Pro XTR bike rack is rated for use behind a motorhome, and a 170 inch wheelbase is 100 percent safe for using the rack.

  • Trailer Hitch Lock For 2 Inch Trailer Hitch Receiver
  • Thank you for the photo, and it is a good idea to verify what you have, which I can confirm for you is a 2 inch trailer hitch receiver. For a hitch lock, I highly recommend going with a stainless steel lock as it will prevent rust and corrosion, and for the best option you will want a Curt lock: - Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # C23519 This lock comes with two keys so you'll have a spare on hand just in case one of them gets misplaced, and it also has a rubber cover over the lock...

  • Does etrailer Offer Any RV Power Cords Made In The United States
  • Yes, the SmartPlug line of power cords and all of their other accessories are all made here in the United States. Since you were looking at a 50 amp power cord you would need the SmartPlug RV Power Cord - 50 Amp - 30' # SM86FR along with the correct power inlet. Since you have a 2018 Airstream Flying Cloud Travel Trailer you'll most likely want the stainless steel inlet # SM79FR, but we also have a few other color options if you'd like: Black # SM56FR White # SM89FR Gray # SM29FR

  • Determining If TrailerValet TVRVR9 Will Contact Jack Foot On 2023 Airstream 27FB
  • I reached out to TrailerValet and the # TVRVR9 you were looking at measures 6.53" from the center of the hitch ball to the front edge of the tracks as shown in the below diagram. You'll need to measure from the center of the coupler on your 2023 Airstream 27FB to the jack foot to see if you're going to have any contact or not. You may be ok as long as you raise the jack all of the way, but measuring is the only way to be sure. If you do not have enough clearance you'll need to replace...

  • Correct Lift Kit for 2017 Airstream Flying Cloud 23FB
  • Thank you for providing that picture. It is true that your typical #11 Torflex axle has a capacity of 4,100-6,000 lbs. However, your axle is in fact a #11 Torflex despite the 3,500 lb capacity.

  • Replacement Brakes, Tires and Wheels for 2018 Airstream Sport 16RB
  • Thanks for all that great information and we do have the brakes, tires, and wheels you need, though I looked up the axle from the part number you gave, and that is a torsion axle which we do not carry, unfortunately. Also, in regards to trailer axles by themselves, it is more cost-effective to contact your local dealer than ordering an axle and having it shipped, unless you planned on doing the install yourself. For smaller parts it is far more budget-friendly to source them aftermarket...

  • How to Determine if Lippert Pull-Out Steps 432682 Will Work as Replacement Stairs
  • We can help you figure out if the Lippert Manual Pull-Out Step for RVs # LC432682 will work as a replacement for you, but we have no way of researching if they will fit your 2018 Airstream Sport 16RB because we do not have access to a complete list of parts for each trailer made. What I can tell you is that to find out if these steps are going to fit you will just need to measure to ensure you have enough room for the mounting bracket to fit. The Lippert steps you referenced have mounting...

  • Adding a Solar Panel System to Progressive Dynamics Control Center with AC/DC Panel
  • Even though your Progressive Dynamics RV Power Control Center with AC/DC Panel and Converter/Smart Charger # PD4575K18LS8 has a charger for the batteries, you will still need a solar panel charge controller with your solar array to manage the solar panel power that is coming in. I confirmed this with my contact at Progressive Dynamics. So something like the 550 Watt system # 34275012 that we carry, you'll still want to connect all of the equipment and then ultimately connect the solar...

  • Correct Lift Kit for 2021 Airstream Bambi 20FB
  • According to the information we have received from other Airstream Bambi owners your 2021 Bambi 20FB has a 4,500 lb #11 Torflex axle. This also matches up with the specs for your trailer. I recommend verifying this information by either checking the axle tag or calling Airstream to have them identify it using your VIN number.

  • Largest Tire For 15 x 5 or 15 x 6 Trailer Wheel
  • You said both 15 x 5 and 15 x 6, so I'm not sure which one you are going to, but I'll go over the options for you. First, keep in mind that the general rule of thumb is you want at least 3" of clearance from the top of the tire to your fender and at least 1" of clearance between the inside of the tire and your trailer's frame rail. So having said that, the largest tire for a 15 x 5 wheel is a size ST205/75R15 and the largest for a 15 x 6 is a ST225/75R15: - ST205/75R15: Karrier ST205/75R15...
