Good evening...
My wife and I just purchased a 2025 Sabre 36FLX and so far we are super excited to get it out to a campground. The dealership put a single lead acid battery in it, but we bought a Lithium battery during Black Friday, and will be installing it when it comes in.
My question is...
Hi all,
I have done some searches on here and there seems to be quite a bit of mentions on the Andersen hitches, but I have not seen any dealing with the Ultimate version of the hitch. We just purchased one, have not towed it yet, but I have to say I love the installation of it and the...
Greetings,
Our 2025 Sierra has a storage door beneath the 5th wheel overhang. There is a black plastic rod that holds the door open that I managed to snap off. It is a cheap plastic part. Is anyone aware of an aluminum replacement? The rod is about 6" long and holds the horizontally hinged...

Hi all,
Looking at moving to a 5th wheel trailer from existing TT. Need to know what people do when they are not towing and need to use the truck for other things than towing? Also is there any suggestions on a quality light weight hitch that can be removed? Looking at a smaller 5th wheel less...
My wife and I are considering an upgrade in the next several months from our larger travel trailer to the Jayco 29.5 BHDS Fifth Wheel. We've never had a fifth wheel before and are interested in people who have experience towing a camper similar to this with a truck similar to ours--Ram 2500...
The furnace in my Sandpiper is making a loud noise when I start it, sounds like something is in the fan (dead mouse?). I can't figure out how to access the furnace, it is behind below the fridge. I can see it when I pull the drawer under the fridge but it is behind not accessible from there. I...

It's been a long time since I posted about my rough riding camper. I gave up on my camper and just accepted the rough ride. Now I'm dealing with all the issue from 8k miles of rough rides. Yes...
Hi all new here. I have a 1997 wildwood 5th wheel with bad following leg gears. Is there a way of finding the manufacturer so i can just rebuild it instead of replacing the whole kit and caboutal? If it helps the drive gear has 16 teeth and driven gear has 18 teeth.
Hi
We have recently purchased a new 2022 Ceder Creek EKS and we juat took it out on our first road trip. We put the large slide out and noticed today that there is a crack in the outer wall above the rear corner of the slide that goes completely through it; the wall on the inside is cracked...
Hey all, new to the forum.
Yesterday we just picked up a brand spankin' new Shockwave 2800RLT hauler.
When it came time to hitch up, I discovered a problem I should've paid attention to when looking at them in the first place. The Rhino Box pin box that the trailer came with has a...
Hi guys. On holiday! Main control panel has given up! May have to manually put slides in but can I control directly on the main circuit board? I’ve jumped feeds to work water pump & hot water.
Will need to replace when I get home anyway (original no longer supplied!)
Each slide he’s 4 wires...
We have a stationary setup in a campground for when we don’t want to pull our Imagine travel trailer. The other day, I was trying to level it up a little and when I hit the switch on the hydraulics pump it tripped a breaker (or something). Now I have no DC once the battery died. Shore power is...
Hello I have a question about my individual slide out hydraulic switches.
I've had this trailer for 2 years. Zero problems with hydraulics. But recently I've been trying to realign my main living slide. And in my wet bay there's individual slide out controls. So I can turn off all the other...
Hello I am new to the forum, I have a 2019 Flagstaff Classic model 8528CBS 5th wheel, I turned the battery disconnect off about 3 weeks ago, yesterday I went to my camper and turned the battery disconnect on and everything works except the IRV touchscreen. There are no lights on it at all, and...
Hello everyone, I currently have a Reese 16k revolution hitch in my truck and using the wedge to get better turning radius. As probably everyone know the bushing/bearing on my trailer is not made anymore. I'm wanting to do away with using the the wedge, as to lock it down and stop movement...
I have not used my fifth wheel hitch for some time. I seem to think it looked more "open" when I was ready to hook-up previously. Does the pic look correct?
Thanks,

So a few years back, down a bike week in Daytona, I would see a coach there every year, a Super C, that had a 5th wheel mounted on the rear. The guys trailer was like a bumper pull but had the kingpin on it to connect to the 5th wheel.
Besides the obvious advantages of a 5th wheel I always...
I lost the front panels of my 5th wheel Forest River model 36CKT. Which when we stopped for gas I found they were missing? Also most of the insulation was gone and the wires were hanging down. I did cable tie the cables up so they would not get damaged. Now trying to find new panels to put...
Thanks for adding me to the forum. Getting to know my “new to me” 2016 Sabre 335TB. Already facing plumbing leaks, slide alignment issues and some water damage inside, but all in all happy with the layout and quality of the rig. I look forward to learning a lot from the forum and sharing my...
