Its beginning to look like the RV Industry will be back to production numbers reminiscent of 1998, 2002, and 2011 for the foreseeable future. Interestingly the RVIA is the only group who can take a drop in production/sales from 2022 to 2023 of somewhere around 38% and present it as a rosy...

Sounds like the...

OK, I searched this forum, the web, called Mercedes, Les Schwab, etc, and I’m still totally confused about the torque setting for the lug nuts. It “appears” to me, that aluminum wheels for the sprinter would be 133 lbs, but for our 16” steel wheels, it would be 177 lbs…? But we’ve had one...

Mercedez says it is really best to buy the Mercedez battery for my 2014 Solera 24 R which is on the 2013 Sprinter Chassis. Do you agree or can I use a different replacement battery and safely save some $. Thanks Rich

The rickety Mercedes hood prop on my 2016 Galleria popped off today! It is not a very good system but the only one there is. Any ideas on reattaching it? It appears to pop welded to the hood. Thanks for any help

When I look at the vertical alignment of my dual trailer wheels as its sitting on level ground, one of the wheels on both sides seem to be off vertical a bit and not inline with the other one. Like "maybe" 1" at the top,,,, Not a whole bunch but noticeable enough that the wife commented on it...

Does anyone really use a torque wrench to set the castle nut(50ft.lbs)? before you back it off and hand tighten it? If so, what size socket does that take? 1 1/2"? I think the 3500lb axle uses a 1" castle nut? Trailer is not here so I'm just trying to prepare. Thanks
