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…
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…
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…
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…
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.
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.…
Hey Darren, the studs of the Optronics Fusion LED Trailer Light #OPT45KB that you referenced are not designed to thread out of the assembly easily. You could take a cutting wheel to them and cut them off flush pretty easily though if you wanted to…
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…
Hey Sal, the Optronics Fusion LED Trailer Light #OPT45KB is for just 1, not set of 2. These are super nice, but if you want some other options to consider, we also have the Fusion LED Hardwired Trailer Light #OPT57NR which does have the same…
No, it is not plug and play Paul but it can be. The TecNiq Contoured Seven Function Box Style Tail Light item #TN62XR passenger side and item #TN42XR driver's side use a 3-Prong PL-3 Plug like item #TN47PV. These lights measure 7-1/2" long x…
Hey Rick. Unfortunately that's correct the Wesbar Tail Light 271594 has been discontinued. Our best option for replacing it is the LED Trailer Tail Light item #STL36RB for the passenger side and item #STL37RB for the driver side. The Wesbar light…
The appropriate torque spec for any application will vary depending on the construction of the wheel as well as on the stud size. I suggest checking the wheels you're using to see if their manufacturer has a suggested torque rating. Steel trailer…
Rectangle Trailer Lights from Diamond for easy upgrades
Diamond rectangle trailer lights make clean replacements or add-on visibility for trailers, RVs, and motorhomes. LED options offer bright output and simple installs, though some swaps may require new holes or a different footprint, so confirm measurements and wiring like a 5-wire pigtail. Housings are rigid, best for flat, surface-mount spots rather than curved panels.
Installation is generally easy. Some lights arrive with no wiring instructions, so identify which wire connects to which circuit and tag each circuit. Solder + heat shrink connections for waterproof connections. If using number 10 self-tapping metal screws, you may need to bore out the mounting holes slightly; for a new install you may want to use size 8 screws.
They are rigid and not designed to flex. If the surface isn't flat, add plastic or foam behind the light to conform to the bumper and provide a flat mounting surface. This helps the housing sit evenly and reduces stress on the lens and fasteners.
They can be very bright and a nice upgrade from older lights, though one noted not as bright as OEM. Check brightness by powering them with a 12V bench battery to ensure all the LEDs light up. Positioning them higher can provide extra visibility when pulling a tow vehicle or trailer.
They can fit, but verify measurements before you drill. Some installs were an exact replacement and easily installed, while another did not fit OEM holes and had to drill new ones. If your lights are recessed and the lens sets flush with the door, confirm the depth and cutout to match your opening.
