    Husky Brute 4500 bubble level mounting?

    The power tongue jack comes with a round bubble level similar in size to the top rubber cap for the manual jack wrench hole. The level has three small holes on it. How is this to be mounted? No instructions on this.

    Rattle in Ram 5500

    Have any I5 36DS owners experience a rattling coming from the driver's side ceiling in the cab. Sounds like wires or something. I have removed the trim panels and secured a couple of 120 volt wires but that did not work. There doesn't seem to be anything else loose in that area

    I have researched my 04 Chevy 2500HD, 8.1 gas w Allison and 373 gears and the only difference between it and the 3500 is suspension. Same axles, same brakes etc. So I'm thinking about adding air bags, Sumo springs or something similar to increase the load carrying capacity and using the 3500...

    I've investigated here and elsewhere the possibility of running my 13500 BTU air conditioner using a single Honda 2200i generator. Most reports recommended using a hard-start capacitor which I don't currently have. I thought I'd just give it a try and to my surprise the compressor kicked on...

    Confused about VA towing weights, dmv registration gross weight for my 3500 ram

    I came to my ponderings after finding out i owe a larger tax amount because Virginia DMV gave us truck plates. So looking at the title, they have empty weight, gross weight, GVWR, GCWR fields. Only the empty weight of 7370 and the gross weight of 12200 have any numbers there. Looking at the...

    Adding Maxxair 4500K

    I am thinking of adding a Maxxair 4500k vent fan due to high ceilings and my sandpiper coming with a manual vent. I have a wall switch that runs the current fan. My question is if I add the 4500K and leave the wall switch on should that make it function normally? I understand the remote would...
