weight

Hello, I'm looking to make the move over from my Flagstaff Micro Lite 21DS to a Rockwood Ultra Lite 2622RK and one thing I want to do is pull a jeep behind it either flat tow or on a trailer. Is the rear bumper hitch strong enough to do so? I can't find any info on this. One video, the guy...

Flagstaff lists the tongue weight at a bit over 400 pounds. I knew this would be much lighter than actual and purchased a WDH rated at 800 pounds. ( I searched the interweb and was unable to find real-world tongue weights for this model. ) Turned out to weigh a bit over 800 when loaded up...

Great Day, I am just back from my maiden trip with our new FR Wolf Pup. Even though my Tacoma TRD Offroad suspension is beefed up a bit, I still noticed sag and some funny feelings while towing. The Wolf Pup is a 16BHS. I know the tongue weight and load in the truck have a lot to do with the...

I bought a puma xle 2019 TW advertised as 380... uggg I bought a WD hitch. ( Note my last camper had a 740 TW at 14%. Towed well) This camper I took to cat scale on way home. Full propane and one batt. Nothing else... stripped dry. Truck 3300 FA 2300RA NO wd hitch 2940 FA 2980 RA Trailer...

Weight sticker vs. Web disclsoure. I'm puzzled about max weights. I'm attaching my sticker. I have a 2021 16BHSBL, so realize it is a bit heavier than the web disclosure. The yellow sticker is in kg, but I'm using the translated lbs. The CCC from the yellow sticker sticker seems to be 1,221...

A while back I wrote a thread on Lithium Diet for Isata 3. My rig is a 2020 Isata 3 24Fw on a 2018 MB 3500 chassis. Solar was factory installed. I decided to upgrade the house batteries to BB 105’s (this was before the low temperature version was offered) , installed a victron 712 smart monitor...

I have a "new to me" camper (Salem 27DBK-32' 8000lb loaded) that came with a Blue Ox SwayPro 1000lb bar hitch. I have set it up per Blue Ox installation and have tried tightening bars but am still having sway issues at highway speed. My previous trailer was very close in size and weights but I...

Please don't shoot the messenger. I am simply asking a question to of curiosity. I have a 2019 Forester 3051. I have a tow dolly and use a Curt pitch with the extra hitch welded at the top. I have a bike carrier I am using with a single eBike and the hitch is rated at 80lbs. Bike on hitch...

hello all, I have an odd question, from what the dealer mentioned to us, the general rule of thumb is, if your travel trailer has a ladder to the roof, then that means the roof can be walked on. I assume this is true. we have a geopro 19qb. now the question is, since the ladder can...

Which hitch do I keep? Thanks for the add. Newbie here to the forum but not new to towing/camping. Ok I need opinions. I don’t need to buy a WD hitch I need to keep one and sell one as I have two lol. I have done tons of reading and it Sean to be a close race between the two hitches which is...

Had the chance to do a weigh in this weekend heading out camping and was a little shocked at the tongue weight - I know these single axle trailers are heavier up front, but ouch. My 2017 16BHS has a written spec of 377lbs, but on the scales I'm seeing 682lbs (including my just weighed 82lb...

One of the main reasons I wanted to get a Dynamax/Dynaquest (or any Super C, for that matter) was because I did not want to ever worry about carrying/towing too much weight. With my previous Class A and Class C motorhomes, I was usually right at my maximum GVWR (and sometimes over), especially...

Hi. Just purchased a new MAC 206 ltd pop up. I’m towing it with a 2013 Toyota Sienna minivan. Well with in the tow limit of the van. Trailer only weighs 1700 lbs. But the tongue weight is around 260 lbs. Rear of the van sags. I’d like to use the Reese 66557. It says it’s light weight and...

We had a 2200 lb Pop up and now a Hybrid. Coachman Apex 20rbx. No camping allowed yet here in Ontario. We have the equalizer-Fastway E2 hitch with trunnion bars. 6000LB/600lb bars. The trailer is 4100 dry so I think it will stay under 5000 loaded. Question is I used a Princess Auto tongue scale...

We have a 2018 351-THSS, which has a single slide in the living room area where the dinette and couch are located. It's time to do something about the factory furniture, they are well past their life span, especially the "couch". I figure the slide should be rated for a fair amount, because...

No problem, head for Home Depot

First off, I really like the performance and ease of use of the Andersen Weight Distribution Hitch. I have highly recommended the hitch here on the Forum, to friends, and curious parties. After a recent inspection of my Andersen Weight Distribution Hitch, I have significant reservations about...

I weighted our rig for the first time, before going out on a 2 week trip.I was about 50# below front axle max, 1000# below rear axle max but overweight for max GVW. See info below. So are these weights a problem?? Also, I have Hancock tires filled to 95#, which is the door sticker...

I have a 14 GMC Sierra 1500 5.3 Slt Crew cab 4x4, I pull a 14xlr hyper lite 27HFS, Is the truck good enough ? I load a gas cart, 3 dirt bikes in garage , and a quad in the back in the bed of truck , Then adding water for dry camping and accessories....... what your thoughts ? Is the...

We recently purchased a 2020 Silverado 1500 crew cab and a Forest River Surveyor Legend 203RKLE. The truck has the 5.3 litre V8 and 8-speed transmission. It has a max payload of 2,046 and a GVWR of 6,900. Per the sticker, a GCWR of 15,000. The trailer has a UVW of 5,030, GVWR of 7,577. I...

I am interested in hearing thoughts on my setup. I’ve driven 500 miles and am comfortable with it, though 30mph crosswinds are no fun above 60mph. Without wind it is smooth sailing at 75mph - other than the 7 mpg, I wouldn’t know it’s behind me. This is my first rig and first time setting...

Where can I find what the weight capacity is for the overhead bunk and the exterior storage compartments for the Isata 5 28SS?

Good morning folks. Wanted to piggyback on my old thread about weights (link here). I have a related situation now that has raised a few questions... The wife has gone shopping on FB Marketplace and bought 2 kayaks: - A single seat Pelican Trailblazer that weighs about 36# - A tandem Crescent...

Hello, Does anyone happen to know the large slide weight limit? We took out the factory dinette, table and theater seats. I should have weighed the stuff I took out vs the stuff I planned to install, but of course I did not...by bad. No issues with slide operation (on many occasions) since we...
