RE: Recurve R3 vs Equalizer E2
Have you looked into the Bracket Jackets for the E4 Equal-i-zer WDH?
I have a set on the way! This downtime (ie. no camping) is killing my bank account! :D

Anchors to use on fiberglass exterior
The stock exterior speakers on my 2019 TT are terrible. I plan to replace them with some 4" waterproof Pyle speakers with speaker pods. I'll cover/repair the original mounting holes and drill new holes for the speaker pods. What is the best anchor to use on the fiberglass exterior? Thinking butyl tape around the perimeter of the pods and then Lexel sealant to make it waterproof.

RE: Recurve R3 vs Equalizer E2
OP here. Well....I hate winter because I have too much time to sit and think about stuff that I may or may not need! I found a one year old E4 hitch for $325 and will be installing it in the Spring! Will sell my E2 to help cover some of the upgrade cost. Probably not gonna help with the noise situation but should be an improvement in handling.

Recurve R3 vs Equalizer E2
I currently have an Equalizer E2 hitch for my 6,000# (or so) 24 foot TT. I've found a Recurve R3 hitch for sale and wondering if it would be an upgrade. The E2 functions reasonably well but is noisy. Any experience with the R3 hitch? Recurve R3

Andersen WD hitch thoughts?
Thinking about going to an Andersen WD hitch instead of my Equalizer E2. The hitch head is heavy, have to store the bars, etc. I've seen some issues with Andersen causing damage to the A-frame on TTs; the set screws being an issue; among other things.
My TT is about 6,000# loaded with estimated 750# hitch weight.
For those that have the Andersen, what are you experiences? Is it easy to use? Effective sway control? Any concerns or problems?

RE: Do Some Travel Trailers Have Levelling Jacks?
If you know what you're looking at, and crawl under most travel trailers that were built in the last 10 years or so and are on a Lippert frame, you might have second thoughts before you jack it up to change a tire let alone jacking the entire thing up off the ground to level it.
My thoughts as well! TT frames seem to be the thinnest possible to reduce weight and allow for more vehicles to be used as TV's. Leveling jacks would test frame strength and probably not turn out well! Same reason adding a lot of weight to the rear bumper scares me.
