I'm working on adjusting cables. My 1999 24 ft Hilo has a storage compartment on the back. I think I have to take that off so I can put the 2x4 onto the frame rails? Anyone have experience with this?

We've purchase a hilo that is in serious need of some TLC. Not the least is the electrical which is completely toast. I need to find a way to hack the power to the hydraulic motor so that we can lower the top for the winter. There is a massive short somewhere in the wiring so I had to...

Hello! Does anyone know where I can buy a replacement cover for a double light fixture? I'm also looking for support brackets for the front rock guard cover, vintage trailers does not have them checked. TIA

We noticed when we filled the black water tank to clean it and closed the valve it was leaking. We have a 2002 17 ft RK-- HI LO silver. Any advise would be appreciated.

My 89 HiLo in the previous owner's hands must have had a roof leak, the wall at the stove and sink need to be replaced (inside), which I have done. The panel was pulled and tossed along with the wood. It now sports a 1/4 sheet of styrofoam foil insulation panel bought at Lowes. The inside...

Hello HI-LO fans. Ed here. I'm interested in a 2004, HI-LO 3104C that I found online. It looks good. It is located 1500 miles away from me. We are going to do a live video call soon with the seller and, after watching Sting32 videos which are amazing, I was wondering what suggestions you guys...

Hello, does anyone know what the roof on my 1996 Funlite is made from?? Please do not respond if you are not 100% certain as there are many roof types from many different models and so no guesses please! (just the facts thank you)

Hey, I'm interested in any 17t-19t Hilo's. I'm located in SC. Would love to know what you have available. Thanks so much.

The top for my 17T is 1 inch out of level. I want to adjust the cables to make all the corners the same distance from the 'top is down' rests. Can I safely assume that the arrangement of the cables underneath the trailer correctly reflects the destination, i.e. cable to front and on the left...

Dear Campers, I have a gas strut on my 2805C tip out that has dropped pressure. I understand that gas struts usually have an attached label these do not. Does anyone know the pound force of these gas struts? I have the compressed and extended dimensions and all that I need it the force or if...

Are there any differences between the 17t model and the 1810H? All I can really find are the brochures and there doesn't seem to be any differences other than 1810H was made in 2010 and the 17t were older models. Thanks.

Thank you for allowing me to join. Can anyone tell me where I can find replacement seals for the lift cylinder? My trailer raises just fine, it won't stay up. Goes back down at a steady pace. I've replaced the solenoid and the solenoid coil already.

If you are not fortunate enough to have a covered place to store your trailer during winter like me, here is what I have found works best after winterizing. I have over the years found the expensive RV covers to be a huge disappointment and waste of money. What I do is cover any sharp edges...

Still enjoying our Fun Lite after almost 5 years. Prior to this one we had re-habbed a 1969 17ft Tow Low. We tow our funlite with a 2005 Toyota Tundra Crew cab 4x limited and it has worked out to be a great combo! Will try to upload some pics soon.

I am looking for the rubber or neoprene blocks that are attached to the inside bottom of the upper section, that run along the vertical slides. Also the rubber pads that the upper section rests on the bottom when down. ( 1993 23FLL) Fun lite

1998 Hi-Lo TowLite 24TD Someone is going to get a deal on a newly renovated Hi-Lo. We inherited this Hi-Lo from family in 2022 and, in honor of its previous owners, lovingly gave it a second life. We’ve used it for about a year and it’s brought many smiles. It’s going to make its new owners...

I have a 17 Foot Towlite I need to sell. 50th anniversary edition, with swing down bunk. Teddy and I bought It last year and have enjoyed it very much. We replaced the cushion foam rubber, and washed the cushion covers, they look and feel like new! I had a problem with the end caps splitting...

Hi I am new to the forum. I have a Hilo 2001 22 foot trailer. I bought the trailer locally at the end of May. I re-laminated the wall by the shower that had been damaged by an ice dam. When I got the trailer home it would only go up with jumper cables attached to the battery. For 2 months...

OK so the OEM hot water heater is a rotting mess. I finally got around to pulling it out of the coach, albeit it was a PITA for me to climb down under that couch and undo all the lines. I have a new 6-gallon unit ready to insert. The way I read the instructions, is the red wire goes to a...

I am replacing a shade. There is no information on the shade removal in my manual. Do I need to remove the valance before I remove the shade? Thank you.

Hello, fellow Hi-Lo owners! I am Paul Van Velzer, 64 years old, I am on my fifth (yes 5th) Hi-lo. I have had wonderful adventures, traveling across the country three times, and one time with a 31 foot to Alaska! Teddy and I married a couple of years ago, she wasn't sure when she said "we need a...

Hello everyone. Glad I found this site. Been a member for approximately a yr. I have a 2302LX Hilo Silver model. Acquired it from a good customer. It was in pretty bad shape from just sitting. Really didn't know how bad til I investigating and taking apart. Lower half was in pretty good shape...

My '91 sits outside for years at a time as a snug little cabin destination. One concern I had was keeping out the little critters, due to that big crack around the perimeter where top meets bottom. Never fear! First of course, don't leave food laying out or crumbs or grease either. But the...
