Hey Ray! What you’re seeing is pretty typical after going to a thicker foam mattress. The weight might not be drastically higher, but the leverage is, so the 60 lb struts end up feeling underpowered. If the 60 didn’t do it, the 80 lb #RD44MR is…

The rule of thumb for estimating a tongue weight is 10-15 percent of trailer weight. A 4,600 pound trailer would have a tongue weight between 460 and 690 pounds. Somewhere between a 1,000 to 2,000 pound capacity jack would be fine. Having a jack that…

Sure thing; the MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent #MA00-06401K has only four speeds and does not have a thermostat so you have to manually set the air speed. The MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent #MA00-06200K has 10 speeds and includes a thermostat which will…
