I just ordered a 3500 with the Tow-Mode Camera option...so I have months to figure this out. I have started to pre-ponder how I will run the camera wire through our 5th wheel. We currently have a wireless Haloview camera on the back of the trailer. It is nice but has a bit of a lag. I am looking forward to the hard-wired version showing up in the mirror. For the folks who have installed the hard-wired camera on the back of their trailers, where did you run the wires? I have a couple of... Read more ..read more

Trailer camera

I’ve had my new 2024 Longhorn 2500 for a month. It came with a trailer camera witch I had mounted in our camper and it plugs into the designated port on the bumper to the left of the license plate. The camera Image comes up on the rearview mirror. But not on the aux2 screen on the dashboard monitor. The aux2 is just a blue screen and it’s my understanding that the camera image should come up on aux2. The Service department can’t seem to get it to work. Anyone else have this issue, or know...

Trailer hookup with airbag suspension

Getting ready for our first trailer towing with our new ‘24 2500 with factory airbags. I’ve been doing some research, but wanted to run it by the experts here. I use a blue ox sway pro wdh if that matters. With the exception of disabling/enabling the airbags, it’s the same process I used with our 1500 without airbags. From researching, I think the steps are: 1. Disable airbag by going into tire jack mode. 2. Couple trailer to hitch 3. Raise trailer hitch with trailer jack 4. Connect... Read more ..read more

I made a trip to the CAT scales with our Ram 3500 and 9,000lb travel trailer today. The graphic below shows the results. (Did I do the calculated rows correctly?) Do the numbers look OK? Anything you would tweak? The WDH is an Equalizer 16K. Would you run without a WDH with these numbers? Thank you ..read more

Need a little help determining how much trailer I can legally tow.

Hey Guys, I'm a bit of a towing newb, and need a little guidance. I just purchased a 2024 RAM 3500 dually 6.7 SO truck, and I plan to use it (partially) to tow a gooseneck equipment trailer for our ranch. For context, the truck is NOT registered as a Texas Farm Truck, as I'll also be towing a 5th wheel across the country at some point. That said, I am trying to determine how much trailer I can buy and still be legal as a non-CDL driver. As I understand it, the GVWR of the truck AND... Read more ..read more

7 pin tow connector; fused?

Is the 7-way truck side connector fused? If so, would each wire be fused independently of the truck side? Meaning if my tow connector running wire (brown) popped a fuse, would the truck also lose running lights? I was just towing my boat back to the storage place, and I lost all running lights on the trailer side 1/4mi from destination. Odd that they would all go out unless the main line had no power. Just trying to rule out truck side before I start looking for shorts inside the box frame... Read more ..read more

Just got my new travel trailer. I hook up and I select vehicle and then dashboard, then towing and trailers which shows me all the guages, gain, oil psi, etc. First time I did this Only the brake controller gain was showing, and none of the other guages were active or working. Then the brake controller guage stopped working also. I did a hard reset to the screen and all guages started working except the brake controller. I then did another hard reset and and now all guages are... Read more ..read more

Before the weight police show up - Kindly F-Off I'm staying well within my GAWR and GCWR and this is Texas. The crime around here has become untenable and I've got a Jayco 312BHOK locked down that I'm gonna move out to our property while I get our in-town house sold. What WDH would y'all snag to transport it a few hours down flat/straight HWY before it gets parked for a while. I've seen that the weigh-safe has had some issues in the heavy class and while I can get a propride from a buddy... Read more ..read more
