Question:
I have 2021 28foot Primetime Avenger REI travel trailer that I pull with my 2014 RAM 2500. I want to utilize the A frame space above my propane tanks by using the Hollywood rack on a raised support A frame mount. Can you suggest one or will this be too heavy A load to support there?

Expert Reply:
The trailer frame will be able to support the extra weight no problem but you will need to be mindful of your towing tongue weight and the a-frame rack's weight capacity. The Swagman Straddler Trailer-Mounted Bike Rack Carrier for A-Frame Trailers part # S80503 is what I recommend. It's rated for up to 100 lbs which includes the weight of the rack and bikes.
If you need more capacity, best option would be on the front of the vehicle with a front mount hitch if applicable. The Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C31015 fits a 2014 Ram 2500.
