Question:

Hello, I have a 2018 Keystone Springdale Summerland 2960BH. Where we have it parked now our township says its a no no and I was looking at possibly using a caster to help maneuver it into a very tight area. Tongue weight is I believe at 930#. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks

I do have one solution that will work great. The Trailer Valet XL part # TVXL25 (for a 2-5/16 inch hitch ball) or part # TVXL2 (for a 2 inch hitch ball), would be exactly what you'd want. These easily allow you to maneuver a trailer around without a tow vehicle. These attach to the hitch ball and give you a handle to steer and a handle to crank the wheel around. Otherwise for a trailer as heavy as yours you aren't going to be able to maneuver the trailer around easily on a wheel caster.
