Hello Bruce, Thanks for writing in! Using butyl tape between the trailer body and the Single Axle Jeep Style Trailer Fender - Diamond Plate Aluminum - 13" to 15" #HP96VR is exactly the route I would go. It stays flexible, creates an…
Hey Nate, We do not have a 3/4" spindle nut or washer, the smallest option is the 7/8" spindle nut #165931and a 1" washer #SW1000. I cannot find anything smaller. Are you sure the threads on you're spindle are 3/4"? If they…
Stuart, since you’ve already confirmed the truck and trailer wiring through the junction box and verified the grounds, the fact that the running lights, brake lights, backup lights, and turn signals all work individually points us toward the tail…
Thanks for letting us help Stephen. The TecNiq ID Light Bar #TN25TR has mounting holes spaced 8-1/2" apart on center, so unfortunately, it won't work for the mounting dimensions you provided. I looked through the ID light bars we carry and…
A trailer that is over 80 inches wide is required by DOT regulations to have rear clearance lights. An over 80 inch taillight kit, like part #TL16RK, will have the side clearance light built into it. An under 80 inch taillight does not have the…
That's a very good question, we tend to be extra cautious and say to use 10 gauge wire because that would be more than enough. When you get into longer trailers that will end up using a lot of wire the heavier gauge wire becomes more necessary.…
Thanks for the information Brian! To add a front hitch to your 2026 Ram 2500 with a diesel engine, you'll need the EcoHitch Hidden Front Hitch item #EH37FR. For camper tie downs front and rear, I recommend the TorkLift Tie Downs item #TL73NR. The…
Hey Mike! We don't have an all-in-one part that comes with the brackets and pigtail so you need to order those parts separately. The #AL91RB and #AL91AB will work with the Mounting Bracket #A91BB and then for a pigtail you can use the Right Angle…
I sure can Blake! I just heard back from Dexter and both of your axles are 3,500 lbs capacity. That's all the information they were able to provide. Here are the replacement parts you've requested: Hub/Drums - 5 on 4-1/2 Lug Nut Pattern item…
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.
Hey Bryan, that's a good question. The pricing can definitely be misleading, but I wouldn't use it to judge the quality of the tire. A lot of that comes down to promotions, inventory, and whether you're looking at a tire by itself or…
We do offer a wide variety of replacement lights for trailer but since trailer manufacturers don't keep a record of what they use on trailers I would need some pictures of the lights you are wanting to replace along with some measurements so I…

Rectangle Surface Mount Trailer Lights for easy installs
Rectangle housings with surface mount simplicity make clean, secure lighting on trailer frames, fenders, and panels. Installs are straightforward, but verify your connector style (including 3-prong triangular) and ensure a solid ground—some rigs benefit from a dedicated ground wire. For boat use, choose submersible or waterproof options, and select dual-function lights when you need stop/turn with tail illumination.
Yes, just choose versions listed as waterproof or submersible. Check that the housing is sealed to reduce water intrusion. Filling pigtail sockets with dielectric grease can help keep water out. If a light fails early from corrosion, inspect the gasket and connector sealing before reusing it.
No. Two-wire lights with one wire as ground are typically side marker/clearance only and won't handle turn or stop functions. For turn or brake, pick a dual-function light with the appropriate extra leads. Check the listed functions before you buy to match your wiring plan.
This often points to a grounding issue. Clean the mounting surface and verify a solid ground, or run a dedicated ground wire to each light. On trailers with bolted frames or older vehicles known for ground problems, a direct ground helps prevent signal dropouts.
Some rectangle surface-mount lights use a 3-prong pigtail connector. Verify the plug is the same triangular shape and that the indexing matches. Confirm you're ordering the correct driver or passenger side if the lights are side-specific. If your wiring uses a chassis ground, consider a dedicated ground if connections are unreliable.
