Thanks for reaching out, Chad! The kit that you referenced, #F2220, is only compatible with a 3500 - Cab and Chassis so wouldn't work for your 2500 - Pickup. The kit that would work is part #F2071. This will work on 2WD and 4WD trucks. Something…

RV gas detectors are essential for ensuring safety on the road, detecting propane and carbon monoxide leaks. When choosing a detector, consider ease of installation, compatibility with your RV's existing setup, and the brightness of status indicators. A good detector should fit seamlessly, provide reliable alerts, and be easy to replace when needed.
Installing an RV gas detector is generally straightforward. Most models come with mounting plates and require minimal drilling. They often connect to existing 12V wiring with wire nuts, making the process quick and simple. Some models even cover existing cutouts perfectly, ensuring a clean look.
Consider the brightness of the detector's status LED, as some models have very bright lights that can illuminate the RV at night. If you prefer a more subdued light, look for models with less intense LEDs or consider placing the detector in a less obtrusive location.
Yes, some detectors are recommended for specific RV brands like Airstream or Atwood replacements. These models often fit perfectly into existing cutouts and come with mounting options to cover a range of hole sizes, ensuring a seamless replacement.
Most RV gas detectors have a lifespan of around 7 years. It's crucial to replace them once they reach their 'End of Life' to ensure continued safety. Regular self-tests can also indicate if the detector is functioning properly or if a replacement is needed.
Common issues include false alarms, often due to wiring problems or expired detectors. Ensuring proper installation and replacing detectors at the end of their lifespan can mitigate these issues. Some users also find the LED brightness too intense, which can be addressed by choosing models with dimmer lights.
