Hey Dave, thanks for the pictures! Based on what you have and what you are looking for the Tie Down Spare Tire Mount part #TD66FR that you referenced would be a great option. This is very similar to what you have now so it would do a great job.
Hey Phil! For a tandem axle trailer you will want two of the Leveling Kit with Wheel Chocks for Trailers and RVs #WS28ER. You are correct, one under each tire is best. I use these on my Jayco with one under each tire to keep them off the ground and…

You could for sure. You would however want to make sure that the fender is reinforced enough to support the Markers #3371308103 so that they don't just rip the metal or plastic of the fender. I'd get some flat metal from a local home…
The Buyers Products 24" Fluorescent Orange Marker Kit #3371308103 are a hollow Nylon construction. They are pretty rigid/sturdy and are designed to be used on vehicles.
You'll need to remove the ring terminal screws that hold the white wires of the #8880162 to the trailer but then the other connections simply plug into the female matching end on the trailer since it uses bullet connectors.
Most of the 2-5/16 inch hitch balls will use either a 1-inch diameter shank or 1-1/4 inch diameter shank. The nut size on a hitch ball with a 1-1/4 inch shank, like the Tow Ready 2-5/16 Inch Hitch Ball, part #19286, will use a 1-7/8 inch socket. A…
You can have a 2-5/16 inch hitch ball on either a 1 inch or 1-1/4 inch shank. The nut on a hitch ball with a 1-1/4 inch shank takes a wrench with a 1-7/8 inch socket. A hitch ball with a 1 inch shank will take a wrench with a 1-1/2 inch socket. You…

Traction Boards for Vehicle Recovery
Stuck in mud, sand, snow, or ice? Traction boards create a grippy path so your tires can pull you out and get you moving. Ideal for vehicle recovery, stage them under the wheels and add more boards when conditions get deeper. Mounting solutions exist for ladder racks or platform racks with lockable hardware options, and they aren't designed for leveling when folded.
No. Folded mats aren't set up to support weight; the hinges are meant to collapse for storage. They also don't work well for campers. For campsite stability, use a larger footplate on your stabilizer jacks to distribute weight and reduce sinkage.
Yes, they're effective in mud, snow, and ice. Clear space to slide the boards under the tires, then ease forward and back to build momentum. If you're high centered, dig to make room first. Watch wheel placement; slipping off the side can happen if they aren't aligned.
Two can get you moving, but four can make it simpler. With a board at each wheel, if one wheel loses grip as the suspension stretches or compresses, another can still bite. In deep snow or when high centered, plan extra digging to set all boards correctly.
Look for pins that slide into a t-slot on a crossbar or platform rack; some accept small locks to help deter theft. Strap-on mounts are another option. If your rack lacks accessory slots, mounts can sometimes be drilled into uprights. Some boards also store compactly.
