5thwheel

Hi All, I'm graduating to a larger fifth wheel (41 ft.) with a GVW of 16,709 lbs. I'm shopping around for a truck now. I'm looking at ultra-duty trucks. It's just for me and my two dogs but we will be full-time. Here's a list I found of the "best" and the towing capacity for each. Maybe...

Wife and I have narrowed it down to the Cougar 25res or the Grand Design Reflection 150 series 24rl. Our goal is to travel 3-4 months out of the year for the next 4-5 years. I know this is a Cougar forum, but did anyone consider the Reflection 150 series and why did you choose the Cougar over...

We have a broken black plastic strap on our large slide (strap holds wires and hoses up out of the way) and was wondering if anyone knew what they might actually be called (as if there might be some high-tech label) or even better, where one could be had.

Our kitchen fan stopped working correctly so I ordered a new one with remote control. I didn't know it came with a new garnish so I found one on Amazon that was tall enough. The new fan came and it had a new garnish with it but... it was too short, only about 4.5 inches..Probably fine for many...

We are certainly having teething issues. The refer doors will not stay closed and found most of the food items on the floor after only 50 miles. Turns out a bungie cord came to the rescue. The fireplace latch is so weak it will not stay stowed, I don't see any adjustments for the catch. I...

It’s been a very popular topic in other forums where I have started it. My more than 40 years aviation career was almost exclusively in support of Naval Aviation. I did 31 years active duty with the Navy and another 10 Years as a Navy civilian employee at The Naval Aviation Depot, Jacksonville...

Hey all, I would really love some guidance here. I've asked a hundred different people and dealers and have gotten a hundred different answers. Like "that truck can tow ANYTHING" But I want to be safe for my family and everyone else on the road. We're looking to trade up our newly purchased...

I'm looking at raising the Sear Spring to the top hole (one inch) on the mounting bracket. This would lower the trailer one of two inches desired. The axles are 8K. My question is; Does the Torque Arm apply downward force when Shear Spring bolts are removed from Hanger ass'y. Are there...

I have a 2017, DRV 39DBRS3. I want to replace the batteries and since I’m a novice on this I’m not sure what I should replace them with. It looks like I have 2 batteries in tandem, I believe they are each 6 volts since each has 3 caps for fluid. Any help and or suggestions would be greatly...

Greetings for NE Colorado. RVing for 10 years but never boondocked. Now that we're retired wife/I are taking our back country airplane (bushplane) and traveling USA from ground and air. Our 2013 Mountaineer has never had fresh water in the tank; only antifreeze. What are the best methods for...

This is not RV related, but I hope I can get an answer anyway. Two of my porch lights, one on the end of the house and one on the front, are wired on 3-way switches. I want to replace the light on the end with a motion sensor light, but they must be in the on position. That would turn on the...

We have a Maytag washing machine that is no longer working properly. Unfortunately, this model is discontinued & I'm having trouble finding another washer small enough to fit. I'm really wanting a regular washing machine only, not a combo unit. So I'm looking for recommendations - what compact...

Me and my wife are new to Living in an RV full time. What are somethings you wish you had known before it happened and what are some tips and tricks you learned while being in an RV

Good afternoon I have recently purchased a 2007 Keystone Cougar 289BHS. I am new to the world of RVs. With this in mind me and my wife are going to be living in the Rv full time. We do not plan on moving the rv for awhile since we have nothing big enough to pull it with. The RV is a 50 amp with...

My last tire on the driver side the spring in the front is stuck in the up position. If put some heavy duty grease is there an opinion if that will let it set back to its normal position. I only noticed it because the tires looked closer together. I am trying to get around taking it to a spring...

We took our 2010 TKSB3 into have the roof repaired after a hail storm did some damage. When we got it back all slides opened normally. A few weeks ago we closed the slides because we were leaving for a few months to visit family. I cannot see the bedroom slide from the switches, however, it...

This is the wheels mine came with when I bought it used (Top picture). Run 95 psi in them and no I'm not over weight . Had the left front one fail on me last year. Found one on eBay that was a close match. Had it sent out to my brother in-laws where we were staying. Had it installed finished...

Good Day! I think my o-ring/washer is no longer stopping the hydraulic fluid from leaking out. It appears to be between the reservoir and its attachment to the pump. Any way to order a new washer? Thanks.

I have read a few articles of the rear cap coming loose on various years and models of Mobile Suites. If I understand it correctly the failure appears at the lower corners of the cap. Now I understand the adding additional backing for the screws makes since. Here's my thought. Mine appears to...

Bad hail storm here in Rapid City yesterday. My F-350 also took a beating Not sure why the pictures are off 90 degrees
