The Roadmaster Blackhawk is rated for 10k. What are you planning to tow? Our F350 (crewcab 4wd long bed diesel) is only 8400 lbs. I know our Wrangler (2dr Sport) is under 4500 lbs.

id be contacting blue-ox to get their input - seem like a great company, they rebuild any owners tow bar for free as i understand it. i have the Aventa XL (alum) too, only ONCE have i had a problem - coming out of ABQ balloon fest after fueling up one of the bars didn't lock and the jeep/toad...

Ours are 2x 110g fresh (220 total) and 2x 55g black & gray (110 total). 220 gallons seems plenty for fresh (i sure as heck wouldn't want to run out of fresh water). I (try to) only fill our fresh water tanks from known reliable sources (our house spigot). but we do use the park water when we...

i was gonna suggest the same (joke). :rolleyes: but then i thought all you need is some moisture and salt to ensure a good conductor....you know like from your hands on a nice warm (summer camping) day! :eek: all kidding aside... Bob - maybe if you put some TAPE over those exposed screws (and...

thats just plain DANGEROUS!

total protection (as bob says) is better, but the generators have voltage / current stabilizing safeguards built in. its also why i added panel meters so i can monitor the voltage and current (consumption). if sam goes w/ something like the TRC 40100 he'll get comprehensive surge protection at...

Im not sure it would have saved you in this instance - but I've been several places now where it saved me from reverse polarity and LOW voltage. The low voltage situations are really bad, causing the ATS to switch on & off....which creates wear on the ATS relay / contact points and will build...

looks like an IOTA. and some googling shows that the IOTA-50R had a recall...and apparently MORE THAN ONE recall :o

Dyers RV has a "basic" 50A TRC switch (like my ESCO) for 124 bucks. RV Transfer Switches, Electrical Accessories, Transfer Switch with Surge Protector all these "fancy" units do is integrate some type of surge and/or polarity protection

Ours is an ESCO ES50M-65N, PPL has it for 188 bucks and they show an alternative for $174 The ESCO's are pretty common. I've bought LOTS of stuff from PPL they usually can't be beat on availability or price. Automatic Transfer Switches - PPL Motor Homes Are you running any kind of...

NOT a clue, but I'm assuming since its made as well as the OEM (ball) that its good for 25k or more. It was welded by a licensed / certified welder (not me). I think i may have said this before but IMO my fabricated 2" receiver IS a bit too long, its not been an issue, just simply a fact that...

as a matter of fact i do....since someone else (on this site) asked for the numbers/details etc. COACH-HITCH by Don R | Photobucket when i had the 2 inch receiver fabricated (150 or 200 bucks) the fab/welder used the (factory) ball hitch as his model.

I have two (now)....we had a problem on a trip (wiring failure up top) so i "quick"moved the camera down below (where some extra wiring existed). Ive since ADDED a top cam, the lower cam allows me to check on the toad or trailer...and the top cam is helpful for traffic maneuvering...reality is...

As Bob says....

I'm confused as to what your looking for...are you looking for the actual (5th wheel) hitch for the coach or a receiver? I had a ball but needed a 2" receiver for the Toad/Tow-Bar, I had it made pretty cheap:

Our coach doesnt have a cockpit curtain or divider, BUT if its just myself and another passenger the Dash AC is enough. MORE OFTEN (in the summer): since we live in texas....and have 120 lb Old English Sheep Dog, we run the generator and at least one air conditioner (we have 2) going down the...

youre generally not supposed let the batteries go below 50% charge.

The EC30-W autostart we have for our Onan QD will start the generator if the batteries go be low a certain level for a certain length of time (certain = user programable). The Autostart will also start the generator (in the absence of shore power) if the inside (assumed) temperature is a...

I guess the question is what was the battery voltage level like after 30 hours? Knowing you can keep things going for 24 hours (at a track) is good but knowing the battery condition is gonna be important. It would be helpful to understand the (generator?) shore power run time needed to...

while i don't travel many gravel roads, I've thought about the issue myself & considered adding some expanded metal. Our coach doesnt even have mudflats. With over 130k miles on our coach it hasn't been an issue.

I'm confused, is that the gas orifice thats all smoked (and melted)? you might have too much gap on the sparker (or it may have rusted & broken to the point that it won't spark).

Sam the extra set i have are like the ones Petrel has in his picture. Are you in a hurry? Im backed up at work & heading to a race in oklahoma tomorrow night...can it wait til monday?

your X is the same as the current (and my) sport. the good news - youre in luck, that Mopar harness part number 82211156AB works on the 2007+ you'll have a sightly unique issue w/ the (pre-2009) wranglers. pre-09's have a steering wheel (column) that locks.....those models have to have a key...

Every toad is gonna need SOME rigging - including base plates and wiring for lighting. You don't say what Jeep she bought (i have a jeep wrangler / toad). the coach (7-pin) wiring needs SOME place to connect to on the jeep/toad. You have one of 3 choices: Choice #1: Use Magnetic (slap-on)...

I'm not familiar with dometic fridges, so was that (glass) fuse was on the power board outside?
