Hey, Dan! Congrats on your new camper. Sounds like you’re good to go with the B&W Tow & Stow #BWTS20037B! Based on the dry weight being 7,600 lbs, I’m going to assume your trailer’s coupler has a 2-5/16" ball. The 2-5/16" ball on…

Hey Shawn, congrats on the new 5th wheel trailer. The Watchdog Power Center Surge Protector and Voltage Booster item #HU74ZR is all you're going to need. Adding in the Power Watchdog Surge Protector item #HU82VR would be redundant. The item…
