Are Hanger Spacers Needed for 3rd Generation Correct Track on Tandem Axle Trailer

Question

Question:

Hi I recently purchased a 2018 Prime Time Crusader 5th Wheel camper model # 297RSK. It is 32 foot 7 inch long, dry weight 9200lbs. My tow vehicle is a 2022 Gmc AT4 HD Like all newer 3/4 ton trucks it is very high. My delimna is my rv is not level when towing. I was super excited when I went to your site and the recommendation was to install the Lippert correct track 2nd generation kit that would get me approximately 2 inches of height which would make my rv very close to level. Very disappointed when I tried to order this kit and found out it has been permanently discontinued. What you now have is a Correct Track 3rd generation which basically would give me what I need. My concern is this 3rd generation kit doesnt seem to have the hanger spacer that the Lippert 2nd generation kit has. To my thinking this spacer looks like it adds quite a bit of stability to the original hanger. Is there anything in the 3rd generation kit that duplicates the spacer in the 2nd generation kit, and if not what would you recommend to make this a safe installation. Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Thank you

I definitely see what you're saying about the spacer, found as part # LC34UD, from the 2nd gen Correct Track LC407131.

With that being said, the Correct Track Trailer Alignment and Lift Kit # RR23QX has been safety tested and works just fine without that spacer. As long as you install the Correct Track according to the instructions you will be just fine.

If you really want those spacers in-between the hangers on your trailer then you can order some from the part above and install them at the same time as you install the 3rd gen Correct Track. You could also install the MORryde X-Factor Crossmember # MR33WR along with the Adapter Kit for Correct Track Hangers # MR93WR for each set of hangers if you wanted to add in some more bracing.

The Curt A16 fifth wheel hitch part #C16120 that you referenced is a really nice fifth wheel hitch that would work well for you and when not in use it can easily be removed from the truck bed.

Without knowing what brake controller you have I will venture to guess that the OL code you are seeing is an over load code. The OL or overload error code indicates a short in the brake output circuit. Start by examining the trailer connector. Make…

I attached a link to a page that has install instructions for the Correct Track kit part #RR23QX that you referenced. I'd recommend the shackle bolt kit part #MR58ZR as it comes with the correct size bushings, bolts, and shackle straps.

With the Curt A16 #C16120 being a lower rated hitch than the Q20 #C16130 it's going to be a bit smaller. That being said, the A-Series does come with the wraparound jaws and a fully articulating torsion head to provide better cushioning from road…

Increasing the tire and wheel size can increase the height of the trailer but it's usually quite minimal. Before you do anything else you should see if the pin box can be adjusted. Although you have to be careful here since This will lower the…

The slide bar locking jaw on the Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part #C16115 is not adjustable. Unfortunately, the play that you have between the slide bar and kingpin is common with the slide bar locking jaw system as they just don't grip the…

Any time you run into a issue with jaws like this the safest bet is to replace the head or to just completely replace the hitch before the jaws fail and the trailer disconnects while towing. We no longer carry Husky brand hitches so in it's place…
