Hey Charles,
The Swagman Swivel # S86SR is not rated for use with a travel trailer. All of the swing away adapters that we carry are not rated for that kind of use. They can only be used on a Car, Truck, SUV or Van ( Class B motorhomes are built on a standard van chassis) due to the extra movement/torque that would come from being on the rear of the travel trailer. It is not rated to withstand that.
Depending on what you are needing the swing away feature for you could go with a bike rack that has a tilt away feature rated for your travel trailer. I noticed on your trailer there is a rear bumper, we do have a bike rack that attaches to the bumper of a travel trailer if the issue is needing the bike rack to not sit on center. Part # S80501 could be a solution around that.
What is causing you to need a swing away feature?
