I'm kind of a comparison/numbers kind of person and have been searching for actual numbers addressing 5th wheel basement storage capacity. My goal is to do a comparison to that verses the amount of storage in the back of a long bed pick-up with a topper on it. Finding measurements for the trucks...

I'm interested in a 5th wheel toy hauler, and started looking toward a Cedar Creek 385TH. I would like some input from people on the forum that may have this unit, or had it in the past. It seems to check all the boxes for our needs. I would like to know about build quality, and how it is...

Looking for a good brake shop to get the weak brakes on our 5th wheel fixed, preferably near Sandpoint, Idaho. Note to admins: Did not know where to put this; none of the forum descriptions seemed appropriate. Please move if necessary. K-R.

Has anyone ever needed to transport a large disabled 5th wheel (42', 19k, 2 axle)? That is, have it "towed" on a flatbed due to one wheel breaking away? To explain our situation, we noticed smoke coming from the driver's side wheel and drove another mile or 2 trying to find a safe place to...

Hello all, I’m so glad I found this forum. My husband & I are picking up our 1st 5th wheel next week, a new-to-us 2016 M350 5th wheel toy hauler. Question - does anyone know of a place to get 3 season doors for the garage? Thanks

I bought a 2004 8281ss 5th wheel 2 weeks ago. When I looked at it I had concerns about the slide out cause when it starts to come in the outer part drops down and comes in on an angle. When I mentioned this the old owner said it was like that since new and showed be a plastic ramp underneath. So...

I have a 06 Wildcat 5th wheel. Lately. The slide will loosen up after being retracted, mainly while traveling. The slide is hydralic driven. Is the a brake or something that secures it? The front Jack's are hydralic and dont leak down. . Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

We have a 2018 coachmen 336TSIK 5th wheel. We suffer from fresh water siphoning from overflow/vent. My question does anyone know location of fresh water tank (it cover under frame) and has anyone with similar 5th wheel had issues with tank falling out. Considering reinforcing support. But want...

We are thinking about trying our luck with a 5th wheel trailer and new Ram 3500 long bed dually. I’m not sure if I should get a gooseneck or 5th wheel hitch. I do have the option on the rig we are considering. Pro and cons for either would be appreciated. Thanks!

I have a '19 Ram 2500 gas with 8 speed 3.73. We just sold our 28' travel trailer as we're getting a great deal on a fifth wheel. The fifth wheel we are buying is a '17 Open Range m-29fbh. Pin weight 1700 lbs, dry 9k, GVWR is 11k. My truck is 3200lbs payload, 14k towing capacity...

After washing my 37RTH the backup camera, rear marker lights and two marker lights on the left side went out. Front cap and the lower ones on the front still work. Brake, blinkers and tail lights still work. Anyone had anything like this happened? And what did you do to fix it?

I have two exterior lights that I can’t turn on. An amber light above the entrance door, and a white exterior light high up front passenger side. I found three switches inside that control exterior lighting on or around the Convenience Center: 1. Scare 2. Porch 3. Unlabeled rocker switch that...

I have made more than a few mods and changes to our 2021 Rockwood 5th wheel and here are two more. Very small changes I know, but very effective also. One is to try and help the wife out. She gets a little confused on the tanks at times. The other is in the shower. I changed the shower head...

For those of you who have experiences towing both a TT and a 5th wheel, what are some of the differences you have noticed between the two? Is there a significant difference in towing experience? This is a general question and not one based on trailer weight or length, just overall driving...

Please forgive if this is just too stupid of a question. I only have a year experience with TTs, and I don't know anyone with a 5th wheel. I am considering upgrading both my TV and TT at some point to a F350 and 11-13k lb 5th wheel camper. Which is the preferable bed length for this truck for...

Finally got around to doing the Install...:-)

I have a 12 gallon quick recovery water heater. In the excitement of receiving it last fall and setting it up this spring I neglected to ensure the heater tank had water in it before powering up the camper. So I wasn't expecting the electric element to work. I've been using it on propane this...

I have a 2016 Rockwood Signature Ultra lite 8286ws and am thinking of getting a portable generator to use at sites with no electric. I know next to nothing about electricity, so I am looking for recommendations on a unit to buy and/or where to go a purchase one. I will need someone to show me...

I want to raise both tires, on one side, at the same time on our Ultralight 2898ks. It has torsion axles and I have searched the forum and discovered the best place to place bottle jack is on the sub-frame between the two axles. I know to raise the tires until they just clear, but my question...

Hi gang. I have a 2011 SABRE 31rets 5th wheel since new, and it has a rear tow frame with hitch receiver built in. It doesn't however have harness for lights. This coming winter, with covid on the wane, id like to head south towing a small trailer with my quad behind. Anyone know easiest way to...

I know the reviews on a 5th wheel tripod king pin stabilizer are mixed but my wife would like to try one. We run an Andersen hitch so I need a stabilizer jack with a gooseneck ball on top to fit the Andersen adapter. I find stabilizers for gooseneck trailers but they are too short for a fifth...

For anyone who has or is going to mod their Rockwood 5'er and put a washer in it or just put one in with out mods. We did ours and because of it we make no more trips to the laundromat with quarters. I did have to modify the closet door way in order for ours to fit ,but it worked out just fine...

Hi all ! new to the forum, and was wondering if anyone has come up with a secure way to keep the thieves from helping themselves to this hitch. We love this equipment, but we need to have piece of mind no one is gonna help themselves to it when unhitched during the night or parked somewhere...
