Hey Dee Dee, we have the Brophy RV Bumper Mounted Spare Carrier part #BR56VR that would work for what you mentioned having. It can work with wheels that are up to 17-1/2 inch in diameter and the 80 lb weight would be no issue either. Have you had to…
The difference between an load range C and load range D tire in the same size is the capacity and psi rating. The two tires will still have the same dimensions and fit on the same wheel. The D rated tire has a higher capacity. For a ST175/80D13 like…
In order to determine the torque rating for the lug nuts on your trailer you will need to know check out the chart I attached that shows all of the torque specs for all the trailer lugs available based on stud size, wheel material and wheel size.
To determine the correct brakes for your trailer we'll need to first know the axle capacity. The Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Kit #23-26-27 you were looking at are designed for 3,500lb axles. From there you'll need a hub/drum assembly, which…
When you tighten the two nuts on the studs of the Trailer Spare Tire Carrier #DL22128 you were looking at, it will squeeze the tire against the frame which will keep it secure and won't allow it to slide back and forth. I wouldn't hesitate to…
Hey Rob, The valve stem hole on the #AM20759 is going to be fitted for TR13. That is a common size on modern wheels while the TR15 is found on older wheels. What kind of trailer are you wanting to put these on?
Hello Phil! Sure can! The Lippert 3,500 lb axles use a standard brake size and bearing combination, so we can absolutely provide self-adjusting brakes and new hubs for that. Here is what I recommend: - etrailer Electric Trailer Brakes -…
The difference between the Class II and Class III hitches has to do with their Gross Trailer Weight (GTW), their Tongue Weight (TW), and their Hitch Receiver Size. Class II trailer hitch receivers have a 1-1/4 inch receiver and can be rated up to…
Hello Steve, thanks for reaching out. The DeeMaxx Replacement Caliper #DE52WR would not be a suitable replacement for the discontinued TDE 46802 caliper. Based on my research the TDE 46802 is for 7K-8K axles and the #DE52WR is only rated up to 6K.…
Load range B trailer tires are going to have a lower capacity than C load range tires. Basically that, psi rating, and the ply rating are the only differences. A higher load range tire would last a little longer than lower load ranges of the same…
Hello Tony, I really wish I had a database that tells me exactly what goes on each camper, but unfortunately, I don’t. Based on my research, you should have a 4,400-pound axle (you can double-check your axle tag to confirm). If it is NOT a Lippert…
Since we don't have a way to attach a spare carrier to the rear of your slide-in camper your best option would be a hitch mounted spare carrier like part #6715 installed in the front hitch of your truck. If you can get me the year/make/model of…
Fast service, fast shipping, received all the correct parts I ordered. Thank you for the great service.

Secure Your Spare Tire with Under Chassis Mounts
Under chassis mounts offer a discreet and secure way to carry your spare tire, keeping it out of sight and protected from the elements. Ideal for those who value space and aesthetics, these mounts ensure your spare is always ready for action without compromising your vehicle's look.
An under chassis mount keeps the spare tire tucked away beneath the vehicle, shielding it from harsh weather and road debris. This positioning helps maintain the tire's condition over time, ensuring it's ready when you need it most.
Accessing a spare tire with an under chassis mount is straightforward. Most systems are designed with a simple release mechanism, allowing you to lower the tire quickly when needed, similar to how many pickup trucks are set up.
Under chassis mounts are versatile and can be fitted to a variety of vehicles, including RVs, trucks, and SUVs. They are particularly popular among those who want to maximize interior space and maintain a clean exterior look.
Mounting the spare tire under the chassis can slightly alter the vehicle's center of gravity, but it generally provides a balanced ride. Some drivers even prefer the subtle change, noting a firmer feel on the road.
Choosing an under chassis mount is ideal for those who prioritize space efficiency and aesthetics. It keeps the spare tire out of sight, freeing up interior space and maintaining the vehicle's sleek appearance.
