I've got a BW Companion hitch in the bed of my truck. I need to get some mulch so I took it out. How do you guys plug up the hole when you want to use the bed of your truck to haul something loose? I was thinking of just taping some cardboard over it? There has to be a smarter way though!
I just picked up our 2021 Tahoe Z71 and was looking at the factory installed hitch receiver to see its rating and capacity limits. It has the Max Tow Package and can tow up to 8,200 pounds, but I want to make sure that I fully understand the the capacity and limits of the hitch receiver...
Hello,
As stated in thread title, I have a 2019 Coachmen Apex 300BHS TT. I am looking to add a hitch in the rear for a bike rack. Normally wouldn't be an issue, but this particular TT has very little I-beam frame to work with at the rear.
Does anyone have an experience installing a hitch...
Hello Everyone,
Just picked up my Rockwood/Signature 29 ft 5th wheel.
I noticed the Turning Point Pin Box really bounces when I hit a dip. My past 5th wheel didn't bounce like that.
I'm wondering is it about the extended tongue.
I also saw about on utube about a wedge block that did not come...

I just bought my first fifth wheel trailer, a 33' Flagstaff Super Lite. It has the Turning Point Pin Box. I'll be towing with a Silverado 2500 HD Crew Cab with the standard box. My question is:
What is the best hitch...
So I just purchased my 2021 freedom 2318g popup. Driving home was pretty
good. Need a slightly taller ball mount to level it better. For those who use a weight distribution hitch are they worth it? Needed for a popup? Weight of mine is 2400lb dry. Just trying to see if its overkill or a...
My cousin recently bought a 310 Heritage Glen travel trailer. The original hitch pin broke so she replaced with a locking pin. After moving her trailer a short distance she noticed the new pin had bent. Need a recommendation for the best locking pin for this trailer. Thanks

Anyone using this weight distribution hitch? It looks very interesting. Any thoughts or experience?
I am always looking for upgrades to my system.
Here is a link for reference:

Please could one of the Isata 5 owners measure the hitch box height. I am looking for the distance from ground to the bottom exterior of the socket. Loaded or unloaded - no matter but not connected to a trailer.
Many thanks in advance.
Upgrading to a 5th wheel. 2019 sierra 384qbok. Installing curt hide a ball gooseneck. Looking into the anderson ultimate. I measured the bed rail height and its 21" do i need a longer tube or will the stock tube with the andersen work?
I’ve not been a fan of all the parts to get the 3” receiver to the 2” receiver for our Roadmaster tow bar while providing a mount for the E-Bikes.
Worked with Gen-Y and think it’s now solved... takes two pieces out of the connections while providing 1,500 lbs tongue and 10,000 tow capacity.
Hi, I'm new to all of this and hope you all can help me. I'm considering buying a Wolf Pup 16FQ with a hitch weight of 444 lbs. The max tongue weight on my 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe SE is 500 lbs. Does the trailer hitch weight include battery and propane or are one or both included? If neither...
We have a Forest River Flagstaff 32 foot fifth wheel. It came with a Reese Revolution hitch, which we liked, but always had trouble hooking up. While camping we saw the Andersen hitch that another camper had and we were sold on it. We purchased the Andersen. We purchased the B&W gooseneck...

When leveled, the coupler height is 17 1/2". The lowest I can get the ball is 20"

Well guys, if you have seen my previous posts you know i added a Buckstop bumper and 16.5 warn winch to my Dx3. Well, it paid off....had to winch tonight in the middle of a city!
I entered a parking lot and didnt realize the slope would scrape the rear end....as it started scraping i slowed...
We are new HW27SC owners and excited to hit the road. We bought the unit with roof rack under the idea of putting our 4 bikes on top. However thinking through it, I was pretty resolved to buy the ProRac system instead.
However, I’m wondering if anyone has used a double hitch adapter from...
We are in a pickle. We have committed to buying a 2009 escape 5.0. Very excited about it. However getting the rails for a 5th wheel hitch into my 2010 ford ranger has proven to be difficult. We had a local installer who said they had done it in the past. We waited 2 weeks for the install...
I just purchased a Hensley Arrow hitch, the main reason was I would get a little sway if the anti-sway bar was not adjusted correctly and it seemed to never be able to set in the same place twice and I am tired of pulling over on the trip to adjust trying to find the best location for setting...
I'm confused. My trailer specs.
Weight
Dry Weight 4,841 lbs.
Payload Capacity 1,933 lbs.
Hitch Weight 614 lbs.
Is the hitch weight 614 lbs when it is at dry weight or when the trailer is fully loaded?
I hope to get some input on whether my hitch needs to be adjusted. I just picked up my Escape 19 is Sumas yesterday (super exciting!). I have the E2 by FastWay installed by Escape and a 2009 Toyota Tacoma as my tow vehicle. I did not load anything into my trailer since I wanted to get a base...
Hi all,
We just purchased a Rockwood 2896MB fifth wheel. I have a 2007 Dodge Ram 3500 dually (Cummins) that I will be using to tow it. I need to have a hitch installed. The fifth wheel has a Turning Point Pin Box. I’ve read in another place in this forum that some hitches are better for this...
Although I'm looking for advice on the Salem 179DBK, I'd welcome any advice on this.
My wife and I reserved with a downpayment (none in stock) a 179DBK, but are having second thoughts because our tow vehicle is 600/6000. Starting with the 502lbs hitch weight (from the website, so not including...
