ℹ️ About the Episode: When we recorded our episode on How fast is too fast to tow, Eric from Techno RV said, "While we're in our truck with cruise control on, our trailer is having a much different experience." He's right. Trailers are hanging on for dear life—which explains why, when we stop for fuel, we occasionally see pillows and other items on the floor. Just as it's hard to know what's going on with the trailer's interior, it's also hard to know exactly what's going on with the trailer tires, especially whether they're balanced or not. When tires are out of balance, they can wear prematurely and make for an uncomfortable ride. In the case of trailer tires, this wear can add unnecessary stress to the trailer. We learned about Centramatic wheel balancers from the community and friends who have installed them on their trucks. These wheel balancers work on trucks, too—but on the truck, I can tell if the wheels are out of balance while driving. The trailer seemed like the best place to start.
This video explains how wheel balancers work and shows the simple installation process. If you add them to your trailer, just make sure you check the bolt pattern first. We also install the Ford TPMS sensors in this episode. The installation process for these is not as simple, but we offer some ideas to make it easier. Why did we add these? Your standard truck TPMS does not include temperature, which can be another indicator of a potential tire failure.

  • I’m glad you guys keep planning my retirement for me 😂
  • Never a dull moment. Love the educational side of your channel just as much as the daily life side. Keep on the journey!
  • @lyfandeth
    I put a wrap of duct tape on the arm of the breaker bar that fits my tires. Makes it easier to put the right one on the wheels every time, especially at night.
  • @PeterKupu
    I was driving on southbound I5, leaving downtown Seattle this morning 8/11. I Saw a white Ford and Airstream driving northbound on I5. Was it KYD? My family and I love the channel! Thanks for all you do!!
  • Funny, informative & corrective additional tire balancing for "road worthiness & weariness". Your clean-ups on your truck are 'styling' until the *rain puddles 🌧️🛣️. Till the next, look forward ... 👌
  • I always carry a M18 Milwaukee 1/2" Impact with deep sockets and a floor jack. Throw that 4 way crossbar in the trash. Love the nickname Trish the Dish!!
  • Been using the cenramatic balancers for several years now...very pleased.
  • I have the balances on my 2022 F-450 . Also I changed out the Ford rims to Alcoa and now have the TST tire pressure sensor now.
  • Watching your channel reminds me of all the childhood memories of RV camping!! It was a great time. Now to get my husband on board for RV camping. He says tenting or no camping. I'm not a tent camper.
  • good imfomation, tack care of your equipment and it will take care of you. have a blessed week!
  • Great advice. I've been using Centrimatics for years on 18 wheelers for years great product.
  • @jimc5624
    To make things faster on the tire change would be to buy an electric impact strong enough for vehicle and trailer lug nuts. The less time spent by traffic is less chance of being hit
  • If you are done using the spring bars you should just get a B&W hitch so you can just flip it into stow mode when you unhook
  • @tombrown8522
    Been awhile since we've seen Trish's dad. Any stops in Texas in the near future? Hope all is well!
  • Hey Marc you should do an episode on how to tow in the mountains without blowing up your truck lol. We finally made it home from Mt Rushmore but the truck was totalled since the engine caught on fire..
  • @lilymc61
    I love watching you guys I can’t wait for Sunday to see what’s new so much fun. So what happened with the house in Florida?
  • Was that Brady Troutman at the end? Can’t wait to see what you guys are up to with them.
