Expert Answers about Northwood


  • Jensen RV Stereo JWM70A Not Switching Into Disc Mode
  • The Jensen RV Stereo part # JWM70A does not need to be set to DISC mode to play a CD. If you place the CD into the slot label side up the stereo will play the CD automatically. The CD mode is not activated until there is a CD in the stereo. If you place the CD in the stereo and it just says "loading" then it needs to be replaced under warranty according to Jensen.

  • How To Determine If Andersen Rapid Jack or Blaylock EZ Jack Will Lift Enough to Remove Wheel
  • The Andersen Rapid Jack part # AM3620 and Blaylock EZ Jack and Wheel Chock part # EZ-JACK are both excellent options to help quickly and effectively change a trailer tire. I spoke with each of the respective manufacturers but neither we able to give any sort of exact criteria that must be meet to ensure the wheel will be able to be removed but it is just not that common for this not to happen. If I had to speculate, I would say that trailers with worn down suspension components may be more...

  • Correct Replacement Leaf Springs for Trailer with Dexter 3,500 Lb Axle
  • In order to find the correct replacement leaf springs for a trailer you'll need to know the type (slipper/double eye), weight capacity, and unloaded length. The springs will stretch over time so the new replacements will be shorter. If you have a 3,500 lb axle with double eye springs then you'll likely need 3-Leaf Double-Eye Spring part # e59SR which measure 23-1/8" long.

  • How To Remove The Head Of A B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch
  • If you haven't already you'll want to pull the pins that connect head of your B&W Companion # BWRVK3600 to the base. From there you'll be able to lift the head off of the pivot arms by pulling up on the handles with rubber grips on each side of the hitch. If not, then your hitch might have some internal issue since the locking mechanism for the handles is not releasing and you'll want to reach out to B&W for a warranty claim.

  • Recommendation for Adding LED Light Strip Under Awning
  • I recommend installing the Opti-Brite LED Strip Light for RV Awnings # OPT32ER under your awning so you can use it whether your awning is out or in. Since this is a small LED light you should be okay tying into the wiring for the roller lights but I'm not sure I would be comfortable having those roller lights on if the awning is rolled up. Even LED lights can get warm and it probably wouldn't be good to have that directly pressed against the awning fabric. Because of this I recommend routing...

  • Compatible Wheel And Tire Replacements For A 2021 Northwood Arctic Fox Grande Ronde 5th Wheel
  • The multitude of bolt patterns and tire sizes used on each trailer prevents us from having a specific for each trailer.

To get the right fit for your 2021 Northwood Arctic Fox Grande Ronde Fifth Wheel Trailer you'll need to know the bolt pattern for the wheel and the tire size for the tire to ensure you don't change the ride of your trailer. I've attached...

  • Weight Of The Adco Olefin HD RV Stroage Cover And Can It Be Installed Without Getting On The Roof
  • The shipping weight for the Adco Olefin HD RV Cover for Travel Trailers # AD67ZR is 27lbs so the actual weight without packaging is approximately 25-26lbs.

  • Replacement Tire Sensors for TireMinder TM66 System
  • Yes. You will be able to use these Brass Tire Sensors for TireMinder # TM-2BRASS with your TM66. From what I was able to find out, the TM66 system is the same system as the Tire Minder TPMS for RVs # TM-A1A-4 and # TM-A1A-6 ; the only difference is that the A1A systems came with a larger LCD screen. The TM-2BRASS will work with all brass and steel valve stems. If you have aluminum valve stems you can use part # TM-2ALUM as a replacement.

  • Can LED's Be Replaced Or Does The Whole Light Fixture Have To Be Replaced
  • It really just depends on if the light has bulb style LED light bulb or if it's hardwired into the casing. If it's a simple bulb like part # DI86VR you could pull it out and replace it. The # DI86VR is designed to replace 194, 906, and 921 bulbs. If the LED panel is hardwired like the Optronics 12V LED RV Dome Light # RVILL33 you were looking at then you'd have to replace the entire light.

  • Will the Camco UltraGuard Slide-In Camper Cover Fit a 2004 Arctic Fox 1150 with AC Unit
  • The manufacturers of RV and trailer covers now are designing most covers to be used with rooftop AC units, since they're almost standard equipment these days; I suspect the cargo rack is shorter than or the same height as the AC unit, so this shouldn't affect the fit of the cover. With that said, I wasn't able to locate the exact dimensions of a 2004 Arctic Fox 1150 but previous models I've seen are around 19 feet long. For this reason the Camco UltraGuard Slide-In Camper Cover - 19-1/2'...

  • Installing A Solera Slide Out Topper On Factory Installed C Channel
  • I spoke with Lippert and their tech said most awning rails are a standardized size and that you shouldn't have any issues installing your # LCV000184673. If for some reason your C Channel is giving you too much trouble the # LCV000184673 kit comes with a J Channel you can easily install with a few screws. I recommend using Butyl Tape # 344270341410-1 to protect against any water damage.
