Hey Jason, a 14 foot wide awning like the Solera XL 12v part # LCV000334942-362241 would be a great option for your Minnie Winnie. This is a powered awning that uses your RV battery as a power source. Were you wanting one that had it's own batteries built in that would require periodic recharging? view full answer...
The crazy rough bouncing of the rear suspension is due to the very high spring rate of the rear suspension. The very high towing capacity of your early model F550 is kind of a double edged sword in that you have the ability to tow way more weight than almost any other vehicle on the road, but the suspension is so stiff that when you hit a bump you really feel it.
The rear suspension of your truck was not designed for comfort, it was only designed for carrying a lot of weight. When your... view full answer...
Welcome back Kenny. The Mach-C Everest Variable Speed RV Air Conditioner System item # CM55MR will not work in a multizone setup with a single thermostat. Each system requires it's own individual thermostat. This kit includes the 18k Btu Everest AC, a thermostat and an air distribution box that works in both ducted and ductless applications.
What RV are you replacing the AC on and what kind of system is currently installed? Feel free to answer this and throw in any other questions you... view full answer...
Hey Tim, the mounting holes on the top bracket of the CIPA Door Mirror part # CM45000-2 that you referenced are separated by 3-13/16 inches on center. This probably could still work for you but you'd need to create new mounting holes on your truck. view full answer...
Hey Beth! The Onan Generator - QG 4000i DF Onboard RV Generator - 4,000 Watts item # CM66GR is indeed designed to replace your Onan MicroLite 4000. However, it's not going to be as simple as a plug and play swap out. You will be able to reuse your existing mounting base, and 12v power cables.
You will not need a new Onan remote panel, however if your connectors are different you will need to splice the new generators wiring into the older remote harness. The functions for the harnesses... view full answer...
Hitch pins don't have weight capacities because they don't actually bear any of the trailer weight.
The downward force of the tongue weight of the trailer is so great that the ball mount is pinned into the hitch so hard that none of the weight is put on the hitch pin. view full answer...
On the 2014 Ford F-53 chassis the brake controller port is located on the left hand side of one of the steering column supports. The plug is gray in color, and you should be able to see it if you look to the right of the emergency brake release handle.
If you don't already have a brake controller, I can highly recommend the Tekonsha P3, part # 90195. To install the controller onto your motorhome, you would use harness # 3035-P which is compatible with Tekonsha brake controllers. view full answer...
My contact at Tekonsha didn't have any specific information about the 2014 Ford F-53 chassis. He couldn't say if it was prewired for a controller or not. If the motorhome had a 7-way trailer connector at the rear bumper, it might be prewired, but because it has a 4-pole, I'm thinking it might not be.
Your best bet would be to contact the motorhome manufacturer, who should be able to tell you if there's a brake controller installation plug under the dash.
If there is no plug under the... view full answer...
We have some multi-fit and weld-on hitches that might work for your application. I'll need to know the drop you need. Measure the distance from the underside of the frame to the lowest point of the rear bumper at the center. Curt offers 3 inches of drop with their # 13703 hitch, which fits frame members 22-72 inches apart. For a larger drop, the Draw-tite # 41990-16 would be a good choice.
If you reply with the drop you are needing, I'd be happy to recommend a hitch for you. view full answer...
I just checked with Tekonsha and they confirmed that the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter # 3034-P that you referenced will work on your E-450 motorhome.
If you are also looking for a brake controller check out our Tekonsha P2 Brake Controller # 90885. This is one of our best selling controllers because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup.
I attached a picture that shows where to locate the port. view full answer...
Hey Levi, welcome back and thanks for the picture! The RV Designer Heavy-Duty Vinyl Trim Insert item # RD57YR you were looking at is 1" wide. This includes the little indentions at the ends that secure inside the track.
Your picture looks like you have a 1" wide track. To confirm you'll want to try to measure the inner width of the track. You can use a piece of paper or see if you can tell where it ends and measure from the top.
What kind of RV do you have and how much replacement trim... view full answer...

According to my Curt representative, the drop of the # C15845 hitch is right at 6 inches between the top of the receiver tube and the bottom of the truck frame. We do indeed have a reducer sleeve available, part # C45405.
For more drop, a weld-on hitch like # 41990-16 might be your best bet. This hitch has a 2 inch receiver tube, but offers an impressive 16,000 lb towing/1600 lb tongue weight capacity. The distance from the top of the mounting bracket to the top of the receiver tube would... view full answer...
I spoke with my Firestone representative regarding an air bag kit for your 2011 F350 Utility Body. I was told that because most of those cab and chassis models had the fuel lines running along the frame right where the spring brackets would need to attach, they do not offer a specific air bag kit for that vehicle.
I was told that if the fuel lines do NOT interfere, the # F2176 kit could be used. My representative recommends that you examine the diagram shown in the installation instructions... view full answer...
If your 2014 Fleetwood Storm is built on a 2013 or 2014 Ford F-53 chassis then you would need brake controller wiring harness # 3035-P according to my technical contact over at Tekonsha. I have linked a video review of this wiring harness for you. view full answer...
The Firestone kit you referenced, part # F2176, is designed for trucks but will not fit your 2000 Ford 450 van cab and chassis motor home. The appropriate kit for your E-450 van is Firestone # F2377.
The shortest spacers offered for use with this kit are the 1-1/4 inch # F2536. In order to use these you need to have between 6-1/2- and 7-1/2-inches space between the upper and lower brackets. This spacer should not be needed unless your truck has a 1-1/2-inch suspension lift.

I do not have a confirmed fit for your 1992 Ford F450 with the Eagle Lift liftgate, but I spoke to my contact at Draw Tite and he informed me of a way for you to determine by taking a few measurements on your vehicle.
He said that from the rear most mounting hole to the end of the receiver tube is 10-7/8 inches. So if you can find that hole and then measure out 10-7/8 inches and that distance is not too far for your lift gate to still work you should be good.
My contact did say that most... view full answer...
According to the Q-206 bulletin released by Ford the correct harness to install a P3 brake controller part # 90195. in your 2013 Coacmen Mirada built on a F-53 chassis would be the harness part # 3034-P.
The harness the # 3034-P connects to is a port under the dash behind the instrument cluster. It's not easy to get to but it's there. view full answer...
I spoke with my technical contact at Firestone and he advised me that, tentatively, the correct suspension kit that will fit your 2011 F-350 Dually Cab and Chassis is the Firestone Ride-Rite Spring # F2176. The Firestone Spring # F2404 will not fit your F-350 truck - it only fits F-550 trucks.
The two issues that determine if # F2176 will fit are: first, you need to have 7-1/2 inches between the tire and the frame of your truck, and secondly, this set mounts on the outside frame of the... view full answer...
We may have a trailer hitch that will work with your 2003 Coachmen Mirada, however the Curt Custom Fit Class V Trailer Hitch, # C14048, that you referenced will not fit Class A motor homes. Before installing a Class V trailer hitch on your Mirada, I recommend checking your owners manual or with an RV dealer to determine the towing capacity of your motor home. Most motor homes do not have high towing capacities, so a Class V hitch may be overkill.
