2018 Sport 22FB -- Need to answer question in order to purchase proper WDH setup...

I was hoping someone might share the answer to this question. What is the frame height (width??) on a 2018 Sport 22FB? I'm pricing out WD hitches and trying to determine what size brackets will be needed (3", 4", 4-3/8", 5", 6", 7", 8") ???

I've not yet had an opportunity to see the trailer in question up close and personal, only online. That's why I'm asking in the forum.

that question cant be answered without knowing your TV.

you need to bring your TV to a dealer

the WD setup is TV dependent

the size of the WD and anti swayt is trailer dependent

Purchase the WD hitch you feel most comfortable with, based on price and on the projected trailer tongue weight. A 22FB would most likely use 800-1000 lb bars. Once you receive delivery of your WD hitch, let your Airstream dealer or any qualified RV dealer in your area handle the hitch install and setup.

If this is a new trailer, request your Airstream dealer do the full install before accepting the 22FB. Enjoy your new Airstream.

I think the OP’s question is what is the height of the frame rails where the spring bar brackets mount.

The bigger question is what size shank will you need. Is it a 2inch receiver? And a 4inch, 6 inch or greater drop?
TV specs would help provide a starting point.

Brick is correct. Looking for frame dimension where brackets mount.

There are 3 different sets of brackets you can buy for the WDH setup I'm looking at.

1. Fits, 3", 4", 5", and 6" frames.
2. Fits, 4-3/8" frames.
3. Fits 7" and 8" frames.


TV is a 2008 Toyota Sequoia Limited 4WD with Tow Package.

The answer is 4" for anyone that is interested. I found one on a local RV lot and went to measure it in person.
