Hey Frank. I can give you the dimensions of the shank on the B&W Continuum item #BW28FR but you're going to need to take the measurements on your Silverado 3500 to confirm the tailgate will open. From the hitch pin hole to the center of the…
Hey Robert. The MORryde GooseTech 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box item #MR47MV works with Lippert 1621 pin boxes up to 19,000 lbs GVWR. These are only a few months old so there's no word yet about MORryde making ones with a higher capacity. If…
Hey Travis! The right MORryde GooseTech depends on the pin box bolt pattern and GVWR of the Solitude 310GK. If it is a little older it probably has a Lippert 1621, I believe the newer models use the Lippert Rhino. You can ask whoever you're…
Hey Alexandria! Bike racks rated for travel trailers are pretty limited. There is quite a bit of additional force back there. This also means there are no 1-1/4" bike racks that will work. I have two different options for you. The first is to…
Hey Kelly. The Lippert 2" Accessory Receiver Hitch for Up to 66" RV Frames item #LC78DX does not come with installation hardware. I checked with Lippert and they said that this hitch is intended for use with RVs that are prepped for a…
Hey Greg! Based on that bearing combination you have a 3,500 lb axle with a #84 spindle. The correct kit is the Hub Bearing Kit for Lippert, Dexter, and AL-KO Axles - 3,500 lb with #84 Spindle #BK2-100. What trip are you getting your 2017 Coachmen…
Hey Kyle, welcome back! The B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch item #BWRVK3600 you purchased is confirmed to fit the 2019 Ram 3500 with the factory puck system. I will make sure this gets to the right people so Untethered can get the credit!…
Hey Tracy! The MORryde GooseTech does not offer any additional clearance for a short bed. You typically won't be able to make a 90º turn with a short bed but you can use an offset ball like #GY43XR (safety chains loops #C60691 are also…
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…
You're welcome! Thanks for all of the information! You could go with the Blue Ox item #BX1139 but I've got a different recommendation that will save you some money and get you a better setup. The Curt RVi battery charger is definitely the way…
You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…
Yes, there is Rob. To replace your Rhino box with a Gen-Y Nomad Gooseneck Pin Box you'll need item #GY37ND. From the top mounting holes to where the gooseneck ball connects is 20.32". The front mounting bolts are 13.45" back and the…

Reliable RV and Camper Hitches for Your Adventures
RV and camper hitches are essential for safely transporting bikes, kayaks, and other gear on your travels. When choosing a hitch, consider the weight capacity, ease of installation, and compatibility with your vehicle. A well-built hitch ensures stability and peace of mind on the road.
Ensure the hitch can support the weight of your bike rack and bikes. Look for sturdy construction and secure mounting options. Some users reinforce their setups with additional plates or welding for extra stability, especially when carrying expensive or heavy bikes.
Proper installation is key. Many opt for professional welding or bolting the hitch to the camper frame. Reinforcing with side plates can minimize flex. Always check the alignment and tighten all bolts to prevent movement during travel.
Yes, many hitches are versatile enough for towing boats. Ensure the hitch's weight capacity matches your boat's weight. Customizing the mounting may be necessary if your camper has additional features like electric stabilizers.
To avoid bumper damage, distribute weight evenly and avoid overloading. Reinforce the bumper with plates between bolts and the bumper to prevent bulging. Consider using smaller carriers if necessary to reduce stress on the bumper.
A 2" receiver hitch offers versatility for mounting various accessories like bike racks and cargo carriers. It's ideal for those who need to switch between different setups, such as carrying bikes and kayaks, without interfering with other trailer components.
