weight

The dry weight rating on our trailer sticker is 2956 LBS. I assume this excludes both propane tanks, battery and possibly the winch. How do I find out which items included with the trailer (like propane tanks, battery and winch) were excluded when measuring dry weight? I found a brochure for...

This just popped up. Anyone have any experience or thoughts ?

Hi fellow rvers, Going to pick up a 2019 Geopro 19bh next week, and I was wondering if anyone has had success using the Eaz-Lift weight distribution hitch with it. I'm mostly concerned to know if the brackets will fit on the A-Frame of the geopro, not a lot of space available up there. thanks jf

The fresh water tank being all the way at the back of the camper makes a pretty big difference on tongue weight when it is full compared to empty. About 200 pounds. Empty: Full: Now I can only get around 51 gallons of water in my 60 gallon "Fresh Water Capacity" camper. (I know -...

Hi everyone. Have a new forest River wolf pup (about 3,400 lbs) that I’ll be towing with a 2018 Chevy Silverado. Lady I bought the trailer from gave me the fastway E2 weight distribution hitch with it so I took it out the past weekend, found some nice flat space to take all the measurements and...

I know the correct answer is to use a scale, but I am still waiting for delivery of a new Wildwood Xlite 241qbxl and trying to do some planning. The weight of the trailer is well within my towing capacity even if fully loaded. The part that concerns me is the Tongue weight. I only have 3-400...

Looking for some opinion to see if weight doesn't matter what size of a trailer you would like to have? Is bigger better? or compact and light is good enough?

I have participated in a few tongue weight topics about how to determine tongue weight. I am familiar with the 3 weights needed to get the tongue weight. My 2005 F150 can support 990lbs of tongue weight with a weight distributing hitch. If I buy a travel trailer, load it with what I need for my...

I tow a ROCKWOOD 282TESP with a 2005 Tahoe z71. I want to get a weight distribution hitch and I’ve been looking at the e2 Fastway that has brackets that rest on the A frame. However, I think my frame is too tall for the brackets. Any suggestions or recommendations? Should I look into an...

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.

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.
