Review of the Wire Frame Clip Video

There are many ways you can secure wires to a trailer. I would not recommend the use of tape as it will wear out quickly when exposed to the elements. Soldering is also not recommended because it is a more permanent method and you may need to change…

Both the #464600 and the #SWC9042-1 wire clips are identical. Both are 1-1/2 inches long x 1/2 inch wide with a 3/8 inch gap for wiring. We also offer a smaller clip as part #SWC9041-1, which is 1-11/16 x1/2 with a 1/4 inch gap.

We offer a few different frame clips. The Wire Frame Clip Item #464600 which is 1-1/2" long x 1/2" wide with a 3/8" gap for wiring. We also have the Medium Body Chassis and Frame Clip - Qty 1 Item #SWC9041-1 is 1-11/16" x1/2"…

The difference between the Class II and Class III hitches has to do with their Gross Trailer Weight (GTW), their Tongue Weight (TW), and their Hitch Receiver Size. Class II trailer hitch receivers have a 1-1/4 inch receiver and can be rated up to…

Personally I like the Firestone kits like the part #F2550 that has been confirmed to fit your 2002 Ford F-250 with a fifth wheel hitch installed in it. The bump stops of the Air Lift kits are redundant in that they don't really do anything beyond…

Yes, 14 gauge wire seems too small. I would go with 10 or 12 gauge. For 10 gauge you can use #10-1-1 and for 12 gauge use #12-1-1. These wires are sold in increments of 1 foot. So if you needed 20 feet of wire you would enter 20 in the quantity box.…

90-120 ft lbs of torque is probably about right for your trailer rims. If you check out the lug nut torque chart that I attached you will see that nearly all of the torque specs are that and higher.

The difference between an load range C and load range D tire in the same size is the capacity and psi rating. The two tires will still have the same dimensions and fit on the same wheel. The D rated tire has a higher capacity. For a ST175/80D13 like…

Grounding through the ball doesn't work well, as you've found. If the current harness doesn't have a ground circuit, the wiring must be fairly old as it's pretty typical for a trailer connector to have a ground circuit. The fact that…

Powder coating is widely considered to be superior to acrylic paint in terms of resistance to chipping, scratching, and color retention. For a wheel application powder coat will definitely look better as well as hold up better than paint. Based on…

Most trailer wiring that runs to trailer lights is 16 gauge. I would rather people use 14 or 12 unless the lights are LED which draw considerably less. But for most people 16 gauge works just fine for basic trailer lighting. If you are planning on…

Because the 8-14.5 tire that you've got sits on a 14.5" wheel, so you wouldn't be able to switch tire sizes with anything that we have available without also switching to a new wheel as well. If you've got a 6 on 5-1/2" bolt…
