A kit like the TireMinder Smart TPMS for RVs # TPMS-APP-6 which has 6 sensors would work great for what you are wanting. You'd be able to monitor the air pressure in the trailer as well as your truck from your smart phone!

I attached a review video for more info on this kit for you to check out as well.

According to the folks at ASA Electronics, due to the combined length of your fifth wheel and truck the #NCTP100 iN-Command TPMS system wouldn't be the best choice for your setup. The system would work perfectly on your truck tires, but…

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.…

Choosing the right height setting for your 5th wheel hitch is a combination of a few different variables. First of all you want your towing setup to be as level as possible. With your Montana High Country 340BH level you will want to measure from the…

Yes, the puck system used on the 2016-2019 Chevy/GMC trucks is different than the pucks used on the 2020 and newer trucks. So you would need a 5th wheel like the B&W Companion #BWRVK3710 for your 2020 GMC Sierra 3500 with an 8' Bed. If you…

Hi Frank; the #RP74FR (68204) and #SWW-06 look different because they are a little different. The #RP74FR is only designed to work with the 68220 and 69220. If you have a different Sidewinder this wedge will not fit. It also fits a wider range of 5th…
