Does this help with towing? We have a 19 ft travel trailer that we want to be able to see around

I don't really know but I think it should. The ones I have are on my Grand Caravan and I don't tow anything with that. I have a trailer that I used to tow with my Suburban but that was before I learned of these mirrors. Hasn't been on the road for many years. At 81 I only use the trailer and the Suburban for storage. When I used to pull the trailer I depended on fender mounted truck type mirrors. If I were to put that combo on the road again I would certainly put these mirrors on the Suburban. I bought this mirror to replace a similar one that was damaged by a deer. I bought the Caravan in 2010 and have had these mirrors on it ever since. I don't really know but I think it should.

I would say to consider these pieces with caution. Depending on what angle the perimeter of your side mirrors are, you may or may not be able to adjust these pieces to give a good view. For a trailer, I would imagine I would want to attach these to the very outside of my mirrors (as opposed to the top or bottom), however the angle of my truck's mirror's body would then position the extension mirrors wide and useless. I hope I explained this ok. It's difficult to describe properly.

It could but, it's kinda small it does allow you to see two lanes to the right & left. Now sure it would be legal as a towing mirror.

I don't know what type of car you have, but I'd opt for something else such as http://www.campingworld.com/shopping/item/clip-on-tow-mirror-with-convex/69166. I now use these and like them very much.

yes I believe it would and it completely eliminates the blind spot, we love ours use them all the time and have purchased them for 4 other people.

I have a bracket on the outside of my travel trailer that is identical to the one that came with the mount, so I'm sure you can mount it to the outside of your camper if you can find a stud to anchor it to.

It should work...I use mine on a 4600 lb travel trailer and it works on flat hard surfaces but it's not easy. Keep the tires pumped up!

Shouldn't be an issue; only raises trailer about 6 inches; would have to be aware of angle on shoulder of road, and if too much, move to a lesser angle.

Depending on how long of a tour you're thinking, I wouldn't recommend it. If you're planning on riding over 15 miles with it, it just won't hold up and every time you want to take a turn, you'll risk flipping the trailer over. Unless you have a very straight course planned for your ride, I would go with a higher quality trailer that's both lighter and more stable.

I use it for a 13 ft inflatable, but the end hangs off about two feet or so. I would carefully look at the measurements. I think the whole trailer is only 15ft long.

You'll definitely need a connection between the tow vehicle and trailer. This should be supplied by the installer.

I don't think you will like this for towing your boat. I only used mine one time, and that was only about 400 ft on grass moving a 3500 lb camper using a small tractor. It felt very loose and wobbly and I wouldn't have used it if I had time to find something else. I was only going about 3 mph. It made enough torque to bend a hitch adaptor I was using so I can imagine it might be able to damage itself. A non-adjustable shank with the drop or rise you need is probably a better idea.

No. It doesn't lift the trailer that high. It only lifts about five inches- just enough to get the tire off the ground. You will like it.

I think it would work well... 2 work better than 1... as long as your camper is low enough ... I use 2 on our travel trailer (tow behind)

I have a heavy I have a heavy RV and only using 40% of the capacity of the air lift system I level out with ease. I'm certain you would appreciate a great improvement in ride and handling. Probably the best towing accessory I've ever bought.

Depends on how much junk you have in the boat... and how far you're going to haul it. Big motor..? I wouldn't do it, since the weight would hang quite a bit back on the load. The trailer is stout enough, but I'd be sensible about how much it could handle.

I have not used it in conjunction with towing. However I have noticed an increase in take off power and power when dropping into over drive. Try it, you will like it.

Another idea budget is higher but livinlite trailers built small light vrv trailers today they only show the big toy hauler. But they will make the smaller rig if you ask. Think enclosed utility trailer with tent trailer popout bed in the side. And large screen you can screen off the big open door. Worth a look also.

You seem to be doing pretty good so far. And remember you will want to position your trailer so it is even when towing. Thank you

Hmmm, although I have not tried it . Mine came with a steel bar to attach so a trailer could be pulled and having hefted it I know it would work for a tow hitch . But, personally I want my trailer hooked directly to my tow bar .

You didn't list the size and weight of your trailer so I'll answer your question in general terms. This hitch with our large Travel trailer works great so I would assume it would work just as well on an empty trailer. As for the weight distribution its a built in part of the hitch system. The anti-sway and weight distribution system work in concert with each other when you connect the hitch. You can contact Andersen directly if you need more info.
