Love my Andersen. Only hitch I have used to pull our 39MB.

And congrats on the new RW.

No offense to anyone, but I have a really hard time owing one of the heavier units on the road, then buying the lightest weight hitch I can.
My hitch is heavy and built like a tank, but still had to get a reinforced replacement swing arm because because the weight of our unit was causing it to start to bend and crack.

no, we have the Flexair. 45 pounds in the bag if the ball is behind the pin.

Andersen says you need to lock out the roto-flex component of the Flex Air pin box. They sell a kit for doing this that is easy to install. I think it is about $38 or so in the Andersen website. You should maybe call them if you have questions.

Seems we have a "TrialAir" that does not have the titling pin. It is solid, so no issue. The "TrailAir Flex Air" and "Roto Flex" have the titlting pin and would need the lock out.

What a disappointment in keystone 2018 3821rl is not in the ballpark with the 2012 31sl...no calking around shower base one roller fell off shower door first shower was moping up water..pulled basement cover off looks like they just throwed all the stuff in there and I guess the give a guy a roll of coax and send him out to wire it nearly ever coax connector was loose.......PISS POOR WORKMAN SHIP....cant wait to see what fails next.......
