    19SM slide weight limit

    The 19SM rear slide is for sleeping with a queen size mattress. Does anyone know where I can find max weight capacity? I asked the dealer and they said 350lbs. One YouTube video of a dealer walk through said 850lbs. I cant find any online user manual that states the limit.

    Curt weight distribution hitch confusion

    The book said nothing about mounting the snap hooks to the trailer. Here is my question, Do you have to drill and bolt the snap hooks to the trailer? The only video I found showed the snap hooks not being bolted to the trailer. But mine have bolt holes. Thanks for the information.

    Popup Tongue Weights

    I came across this in another forum. The circled weights show the tongue weight to be at 4.4 percent. Is there something special about a popup that exempts it from swaying? This chart is about 20 years old. I have no popup experience and am wondering how this is even possible.

    2018 XLR 29kw weight

    I am buying the subject TH and was shocked when I realized the actual weight is 10,135 and the brochure weight is ~9200; nearly 1000 lbs lower. This our 5th camper so I realize the actual is always a bit higher than the brochure weight but 1000 lbs is a lot! Other camper I've had were 400-500...

    New Tires - Wheel Weights or Balance Beads

    I'm about to put 6 new tires on my coach. Dealer/techs are asking me whether I want normal wheel weights or balance beads in the tires. Anyone have enough experience with balance beads to offer advice? I've heard of them, but never used them myself. Are they better than wheel weights for a...

    Andersen Weight Distribution Hitch - Install and take off.

    Hi, I just purchased the andersen WDH. I have been watching video on how to install it and take it off. So to take it off you lift the trailer up and take out the plate on the hitch.

    Buying Wheel Weight Scales

    Now that I’m stationary dab smack next to a half dozen campgrounds, I’ve been kicking around the idea of getting a set of individual wheel weight scales. But frankly, I’m not even sure where you start shopping for such a thing! I’ll also have to figure out a place to actually do it, of course...

    Boondocking and tongue weight

    Does anyone weight their tongue before the return trip home. We have stayed mostly in state parks since owning current TT. We want to start doing more boondocking this year.
