    Forest River repairs

    Dropped my FLOK off at Forest River yesterday. Supposed to be repaired and back in two weeks here’s to hoping. They found many more defects while walking it down then I had known about. Hoping it comes back as good as they say.

    Bunk Door Repair

    So apparently my front bunk door leaks somewhere. I believe the caulk on the metal trim across the bottom of the front of the bunk door was the culprit, as it was cracked and leaving some gaps. The door now has a roughly 3" soft spot across this area so I'm guessing I have a rot issue. Has...

    Seal repair question

    We had a piece of rubber come off our slide during a freak 60 MPH, driving rain storm last night. The slides were out on the trailer. This is a tube shaped strip (more like weather stripping on a door) that runs vertically on the inside edges of the slide. When the slide goes in it basically...

    A bit of a crank problem

    Today I purchased my first pop-up camper. The seller was an honest man, and pointed out to me the fact that the receiver for the crank handle was out of shape, as though cranking it had made it so it is not square. The trailer is a Jay Series 2006 806 model. The attached photo does not show...

    Range cover won’t stay up

    Hi all We purchased a used Zinger ZT-320-SB a couple years ago and the bi-fold range cover has never stayed up and covers the back burners. I’m guessing it was installed wrong as the paint is rubbing by the rear hinges. Anyone out there be able to tell me how to fix this? Cheers! Heather

    Window treatment removal

    I’ve got a 2019 Jayco 319 MLOK. My dog broke the string on the bedside small blinds and I need to take the window treatment off to access the blind. Is there a trick to get them off or are they tacked to the wall. I ask ahead because I don’t want to damage my walls.
