What began as a small operation tooling mobile home steps has evolved into a comprehensive line of innovative RV accessories that enhance safety, functionality, and enjoyment on the road.</p> <h3>A Legacy of Engineering Excellence</h3> <p>David Stromberg, the company founder, used to walk out on the shop floor with his white shirt and tie, and if something he had engineered was not working correctly, he would roll up his sleeves and run the job himself until he solved the problem. This hands-on engineering philosophy continues today under the leadership of President Robert Brammer Jr. and Vice President Charles Brammer, who represent the third generation of a family dedicated to understanding exactly what RV owners need. Based in Traverse City, Michigan, Stromberg Carlson maintains ISO-9000 standards and utilizes CNC machinery to ensure consistent quality across their product line.</p> <h3>Tailgates Engineered for Fifth-Wheel Towing</h3> <p>One of Stromberg Carlson's signature innovations is their line of <a href="/2558-stromberg-carlson-tailgate-1427">fifth-wheel tailgates</a>. A Stromberg Carlson top-seller is the company's fifth-wheel-friendly tailgate, designed to facilitate heavy-duty towing and made in the USA with an attractive louvered design. These tailgates are available in multiple series, from the painted steel 100 Series to the glass-filled composite 4000 Series with lockable options. The vented design enhances both your vision and your truck's exterior aesthetics while also reducing wind drag, resulting in better fuel economy.</p> <h3>Comprehensive RV Storage and Organization</h3> <p>Space management is critical for any RV adventure, and Stromberg Carlson addresses this with practical solutions. Their <a href="/2558-stromberg-carlson-truck-bed-storage-box-1192">truck bed storage boxes</a> provide secure, weather-resistant compartments for essential gear. The company pioneered the first trailer tongue cargo carrying system, adjustable to fit most A-frame trailers on the road today, providing extra storage in what's typically underutilized space. From bike racks to cargo carriers with secure tie-downs, Stromberg Carlson understands that versatile storage options can make or break an extended trip.</p> <h3>Jacks and Stabilization Systems</h3> <p>Proper leveling and stabilization are fundamental to RV comfort and safety. Stromberg Carlson's <a href="/2558-stromberg-carlson-jack-14315">jacks</a> include electric tongue jacks, stabilizer jacks, and landing gear systems engineered for reliability.
