Hey Duane, The Hellwig kit you referenced was designed for trucks and would not work for your trailer but we can still help. What you'd want instead is the SumoSprings kit part #TSS-106-40 which is for lighter duty trailers with underslung…
Hey Guy, thanks for the information and welcome back! The best e-bike rated bike rack that is rated for use behind a motorhome is the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE item #HLY87RR. This is our only trike capable bike rack. It's rated to be used…
Hello Morgan, Great question! The etrailer Over-The-Cab Truck Ladder Rack - Steel - 1,000 lbs #e78FV is going to be a great fit for your 2026 Ram 2500 whether it has a 6 1/2' bed (without Rambox) or an 8' bed. With the etrailer Over-The-Cab…
Hey Mike, thanks for the information! The V-Ride rear suspension system wasn't introduced in the Palazzo line until 2020-2021 so your 2018 Thor Palazzo 33.2 built on a Freightliner 2017 XC-S chassis does not have it. I checked with Roadmaster and…
Hi John! The etrailer Anti-Rattle Hitch Stabilizer for 2" Hitches - Vinyl Coated Steel #e99007 could be used with weight distribution, but I don't think it's the one I would go for. It works really well for things like bike racks, cargo…
Hey Robert, the Access tonneau cover part #A24AU can work with a ladder rack but it has to be one that attaches to the top of the bed rails and not one that wraps around them like the Yakima Overhaul. For a ladder rack that installs like that the…
Hey Dean! Yes, you can absolutely run your 50 amp Power Watchdog #HU92VR in that setup without any issues. When you plug into a 30 amp pedestal using your Mighty Cord adapter like #A10-3050FHVP, the Watchdog will still function as intended. It will…
Hey Brian, congratulations on the new Wrangler! I would be happy to help you out with this. For a complete setup you will need a base plate kit, tow bar, safety cables, wiring, and a supplemental brake system. Roadmaster is going to be the best…
Hey Ken, welcome back. I think the Elevate Rack system is going to be a good option for a ladder rack tonneau cover combo, however we do not carry it anymore. Take a look at the BAK Revolver X4s Hard Tonneau Cover item #BAK33AV and the Adarac Pro…
Yes, you do Fred. You're definitely going to want to use two of the MouseBlocker Classic Electronic Rodent Deterrent item #MB44FR in your Challenger. This will keep them out of both areas of your car. They each pull 0.1 watts so you'll want…
You really could use either one of the 68" #Y01158 or 78" #Y01159 bars, but I have a feeling that the 78" bars are going to stick out a little bit too far, so I do recommend going with the 68" Yakima HD Bars #Y01158. Obviously…
Hey Joshua, thanks for reaching out. That specific offset adapter is not offered as a replacement part. We carry the Convert-A-Ball adapter set #CAB-C5GX1216, but the offset portion is not available on its own. You may want to contact the…
