Hey Alexandria! Bike racks rated for travel trailers are pretty limited. There is quite a bit of additional force back there. This also means there are no 1-1/4" bike racks that will work. I have two different options for you. The first is to…
Hey Frank. I can give you the dimensions of the shank on the B&W Continuum item #BW28FR but you're going to need to take the measurements on your Silverado 3500 to confirm the tailgate will open. From the hitch pin hole to the center of the…
Hey Sharon, the better option for you would be the Fastway e2 part #FA92-00-0600 which is going to better match your loaded tongue weight compared to the system you mentioned. This has a tongue range of up to 600 lb instead. This would allow you to…
Hey Robert. The MORryde GooseTech 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box item #MR47MV works with Lippert 1621 pin boxes up to 19,000 lbs GVWR. These are only a few months old so there's no word yet about MORryde making ones with a higher capacity. If…
Hey Travis! The right MORryde GooseTech depends on the pin box bolt pattern and GVWR of the Solitude 310GK. If it is a little older it probably has a Lippert 1621, I believe the newer models use the Lippert Rhino. You can ask whoever you're…
Hey, Joe. That's a great question. Backup cameras and rearview, observation, cameras are essentially the same, the difference comes down to how they’re wired. With a system like the Furrion Vision S+ Wireless RV Backup System #FR57AD, it’s…
Hey Kelly. The Lippert 2" Accessory Receiver Hitch for Up to 66" RV Frames item #LC78DX does not come with installation hardware. I checked with Lippert and they said that this hitch is intended for use with RVs that are prepped for a…
Hi Paul, you’re definitely on the right track here, and I can help you narrow this down with confidence. With your tandem 3,500 lb Dexter axles and 33 inch spacing, both the Dexter EZ Flex part #K71-652-00 and the Lippert Road Armor part #LC53CK are…
Hey Glenn, thanks for the information! For an upgraded replacement option, I recommend the Demco 50-Degree A-Frame Trailer Coupler w/ Jack Hole item #12660-97SP. This coupler has the same fit as your Atwood but it has an upgraded latch that makes…
Thanks for the photo! I can now see the issues you are having trying to install a trailer hitch on your 2019 Forest River Rockwood Ultra Lite Fifth Wheel. That said, the brackets for the Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver part #13703 and the…
Hey Ray, thanks for reaching out. Yes we do have a good option for replacing your Dometic Duo-Therm 57915.531. With yours being an older unit, there is not a direct rooftop swap that keeps your existing controls. The correct path is replacing the…
Hey Danny, what you would want is the ShakeStopper Heavy Duty 2 inch hitch part #MNT72VR which has a 400 lb tongue weight capacity and was designed with heavier bike racks in mind. The hitch you mentioned only has a 100 lb capacity so it would not be…
