hitch

He everyone, I have a 8280ws fifth wheel that has had flex when hitching and unhitching especially on the right (passenger) side since it was new. I had it looked at after we bought it and they said that it was not excessive and it was normal. The flex however causes the trim on the one outside...

Just picked up our 2022 Wildwood 26DBUD this past Saturday after upgrading from a 197BH. Hitch weight is 795lb. We are using a Recurve R3 600 hitch that we also used with our 197BH which was only 400 lb hitch weight. Would like to keep using that same hitch but not sure if I should get the 800...

For those that kinda want to have a gooseneck....

I've been researching options for adding a bike rack while towing my 2008 HW276. Some quick thoughts. The rear bumper is a no go. I don't want to add any of the riser mounts that connect to the trailer on the front. So I have found this and so far is the best solution I can come up with...

I have a geo pro 19fd. I have the bike rack that attaches to the tongue. I also have an ebike that weighs 65 pounds so lifting it up onto the existing bike rack proves very difficult. Is it possible to attach a hitch to the rear of the camper for a bike rack so lifting the bikes would be more...

I just learned about a hitch I had not heard of before called "Weigh Safe". It's kind of expensive, but saw a Hitch comparision where it ranked pretty well in terms of performance. One of the this things I like is that the shank comes in 2 pieces so maybe not as hard to pick up, and the...

All while towing from SW Florida to the pan handle . Just happened to check over hitch After setting up at a park . found 1/2 of the pin gone and only the other half holding things together .

Hey folks, we just picked up a furrion 3 camera system. (Rear and sidelights) Has anyone been able to figure out a way to power them while disconnected from truck? I know the best option is an auxiliary 12 volt switch to all the cameras. On our trailer, Impression 320FL, you’d have to dismantle...

Hello, I need help finding the correct hitch size. I don't have access to weigh the trailer or the tongue weight. Here are the specs: 2020 Coachmen 194BHS Apex Nano Dry Hitch Weight: 428 lb. GVWR: 4,800 lb. I added dual propane to the tongue (2 20lbs tanks). I am towing with a 2012 Ford...

This is a Tale of Two Couplers. Or, maybe, three, depending on your perspective. I recently purchased a Bulldog Part No. 028287 7,000# Collar-Lok low-profile latch coupler. When it arrived, I was underwhelmed. It was rusty, the locking mechanism was too stiff to operate by hand, and the...

Hello - we are not new to towing (used to have a RAM 1500 and Rockwood Mini Lite 2506s). However at that time we just let the dealership hook us up and off we went. We just upgraded trailer and truck (Nissan Titan XD & Rockwood Ultralite 2506s) and now I have learned a lot more. I have done a...

Hello everyone, I ran into an issue with my trailer and hoping someone could help me with it. I have a 2004 F37sp toy Hauler and noticed that I could not unlatch the ramp latch to bring it down. The trailer has been parked in the exact location for a while, and I didn't have this issue before...

Still waiting to pick up my Avenger LT 16FQ next month. I am looking at hitch lock sets. Not looking to spend the hundreds for a really high quality one, just looking at ones that will deter a thief and have them move on to something easier. I am looking at the Curt 23088 Trailer Lock Set for...

Recently purchased a Columbus Compass 297RKC. I'm trying to figure out if I need a slider or not. I have a 2021 Chevy 3500 HD with the standard box (6 3/4). I have talked to dealers and manufacturers. Getting different answers. Some say I need the slider due to not having the 8' box. Others are...

I managed to bend the triangular plate on my anderson hitch while unhitching. Both sides are bent upward and resemble a slight “C” shape. My question is can I have a shop straighten it and be useable again. Thanks for your responses.

I had a stabilizer on my 2" hitch and the u bolt nuts kept coming loose and stretching. The bottom plate also bent. Anyone ever found a good stabilizer in 2 1/2" that fits a GMC 3500? I did buy the 2 1/2" shank for my hitch and won't be using an adapter.
