    WD Hitch Help

    I presently have a regular Reese WD hitch with 1200lb bars and a 1400 tongue weight. I just picked up my new North Country 29RKS and I wasn't impressed with my towing. I feel I have plenty of truck for the job. When the hitch was hooked up, the dealer had to raise the ball to the proper...

    Loose fiberglass siding under bed in hitch area

    i was walking under my bighorn in the bed area and brushed my head against the top. I was surprised to find some space between the plywood and the formed underside of the cap. I would have expected the fiberglass to be firmly glued to the plywood underneath it, but there is a 1/2 to 3/4 inch...

    Gooseneck ball + adapter + 3670RL Bighorn

    So, I've got a truck with a killer gooseneck ball installed in it, already. Looking to get the 3670RL (which is a moderately heavy trailer - 12K dry). I can get that all cut out and replaced with a plate, but I'm wondering if a gooseneck adapater would work? Gooseneck ratings are pretty high...

    Hidden Hitch Signature Series

    Has anyone used a Hidden Hitch Signature Series fifth wheel? I found one on www.americanrvcompany.com. It has a nearly identical part number to the Reese unit and visually appears to be the same part. The big difference is price. On their site, the Hidden Hitch unit is listed for $557.76 and...

    What hitch should I buy?

    I have a F-350 diesel dually with a full 8' box and the Tow Boss package, so I should have no trouble pulling a Sundance. My question is what kind of hitch should I get? I assume since the truck is rated at 18,600, I want a hitch rated that high. What are the differences in a cushioning...

    Bike rack?

    Hi everyone! We're still leaning towards a Bighorn 3055RL. At our latest trip to the dealership we looked at the Open Range and noticed that it came with a 1.25" hitch receiver by default for a bike rack. Nice! Then, of course, I had to crawl around on the ground under the Bighorn and sadly...

    Hitch Handle Mod - Rescue Tape to the Rescue

    It's great going to rallies with people smarter than you :o Dave (Cookie) has the same Curt Q5 hitch as I do. And he asked me the same question I have asked other Q5 owners. "Does your hand get all black when you grab the rubber handle"? Yep - sure does. Dave told me he had a fix for it. I...

    Odd hitch question

    I want to install a B&W companion in a new truck. Their website says the companion is rated at 18K #'s. My TH maxes out at 18K, is this a good match or do I need a safety margin for example a 20K hitch for a 18K GVWR TH?

    B&W Hitch Question

    During the past month my B&W Fifth Wheel Companion has developed a pop or thump when stopping but we do not get the same noise on start-up. It does not have to be a hard stop at all. I have watched while DW drives and stops and it seem to come from the horizontal pin that allows the table to...

    New to us TV and B&W hitch, input wanted

    OK, we did a bad thing. Bought a 2005 F350 PSD dually last night. We had an F250 7.3 and loved it, but were right at the ragged edge of weight limits. Traded both it and an F-150 we had in on the dually. Looking for input from owners as to anything to watch out for, maintenence tips, etc. We...

    towing behind 21FBS

    I am looking into the possibility of hitching a small boat trailer behind my 21FBS. I know it depends upon the state but is it feasible to attach a hitch to my North Trail? Is there such a hitch on the market?
