Review of the Bumper Spare Tire Mount Video

Appreciate the photo and we can get your 2022 Dutchmen Coleman Lantern 17B travel trailer set up with a spare tire and wheel. The photo shows you have a ST215/75R14 tire, and we can get you one better than what you have on there new. I highly…

For a bumper mounted spare carrier that has capacity for an 80 lb setup we have the part #BR56VR from Brophy that fits a 4 inch bumper like you have and would work well.

I went out and pulled a Bumper Mounted Tire Carrier #TR-1 from our warehouse to measure the U-bolts and found the depth of the bolt is 5-1/8 inches. The width is 4-1/2 inches. I attached a review video for this carrier for you to check out also.

The first thing to check is the connectors to make sure there is no corrosion present. That can cause a variety of problems. If that checks out you will need to do some other testing. You can sever the blue wire about 4 to 6 inches from the back of…

First of all did this problem just start happening? If the trailer has always worked fine before on the same truck then it's likely a short on the trailer's brake wiring. I would start by cleaning the connector and make sure…

The part number 8-245 is an obsolete part number but I was able to find some info on it. It was basically a 3,500 lb hub and drum that fit a 84 spindle. Because of that we have a solution that will fit. The part #AKHD-545-35-K is a 3,500 lb…
