tow

Hello all what are some options out there for towing that people are using? I see tow dollies and flat tow. Im asking for future trips right now I was looking at a tow dolly but I see people saying not good for long distances. I have a Honda Oddy 2018 curb weight around 4,500 to 4,800. But it...

Would love to hear from folks who have towed considerable miles with their half ton trucks as well as those who have had catastrophic failures related to the half ton perhaps not being enough truck. I’ve found much about travel trailer towing with half tons but surprisingly few discussions of...

Anyone have trouble with their roofs going bad? I put my 06 359ts up for sale and a guy came by with his "knows a lot about campers" son to check it out. After climbing all over it he wanted me to knock off 8 grand because the roof may need to be replaced someday due to getting brittle. The...

I've got a 2024 Equinox 2 wheel drive that I purchased because of its four on the ground towing ability. I and my SIL installed everything to make it towable including umbilical cable that also has 12 volt for charging battery. Shortly after buying it I received a Owners Manual update that...

So we are fairly new to this unit. I winterized following a YouTube video with no issue, but I’m not sure I returned all the valves to the proper positions. I have attached photos of my current configuration and just want to make sure these are all correct for daily use. Thanks in advance.

Hello all, I bought a 2022 F350 diesel a couple of months ago, and love it so far. We did a recent 1300 mile trip towing our 8000 lb GVWR bumper pull trailer. It towed like a dream, and the braking on this truck is SO much better than my F150 it replaced, and I mostly use engine braking when...

Over the last two weeks I have talked to two different dealers in different states about GT7 36D motorhomes. A used 2022 and a new 2023. While both of these dealers list these units as being 'for sale' neither has them on their lot as they have both sent them back to the factory for a 'recall'...

I think I was late. 125,000 miles. They all looked like below. New ones should perform better, ya think?

The document provided to me for my 2022 Georgetown 36D7 slide-outs shows a manual method of retracting the slide-outs on page 46. I cannot locate this manual override point. Does anyone know where this override point is located or how to retract a Slide-Out on a 2022 Georgetown 36D7? Here's...

This was posted on the sister site but I was wondering if the boat trailer tongue on the side by side ball is safe. Sorry, highlight the link and hit open..

We have been looking at some Georgetown GT7 units. All of these are 2024 model year according to the dealer. Some have the standard 6000kw Yamaha Generator. The others have the 7000kw Onan optional upgrade generator. But strangely about half of the units do not show this 7000kw generator...

Hello, I need to adjust the breaking park on my 338. The brake is not so efficient. I can see that there is a cable actionned by the pedal but I can't find where is the end of the cable. I believe that I just have to adjust the cable tension at the end. Probably at the rear wheels ? Can...

Hi, Can someone give me the Rear wheel nut tightening torque on Georgetown 338. This is 19.5 wheel (double wheel on the same thightening) I'm in France and don't have the original user manual with the motorhome. After blowing and replacing the tire I need to properly tighten the rear wheel...

Do y'all tow your TT without stabilizer bars? Long story short...some A hole stole our 30' TT. As I was tracking it down (it has a gps tracker on it) and before the police could go grab it, the A hole threw away the stabilizer bars and took off the welded-on stabilizer bar receivers that were...

I'm trying to figure out why my turn signals (both sides) are not working. The interior flasher of the RV is steady and sounds as if the bulbs are normal (slow click / flash), but nothing lights up in the front (rear works fine). Upon inspection, I found an extra bulb on each side just laying...

Has anyone had to replace the lippert hydraulic pump?Lippert 149087 is the entire pump/motor/reservoir assemble. Lippert says they only sell the entire unit not just the pump. I had a local heyraulic shop pressure test my pump and assembly and they claim it held 2000 psi, however when my...

Hey all - 2023 Georgetown GT7 36D7 - Just bought my wife a Lectric E Trike (and a regular XP bike for me). Mine will fit inside the cargo area, the trike is too big to fit under or inside the RV. What do you all think about using this bike rack for the trike using the tow hitch...

I have a 06 Georgetown 35' MH. Wanting to tow a 2021 Toyota Camary Hybird. It's front wheel drive, so I know I have to have a Tow Dolly to tow, so it doesn't mess up the battery charging system. My question is. Are all tow dolly's the same? Are they surge or electric braking? My rig has a 7 pin...

My 2023 subaru outback has a tow ball hitch installation. The top of the 2" ball is 18 1/2 inches from the ground. On the trailer hitch, when level front to back, the top of the coupler on trailer tongue is 20" and the bottom of coupler is 17 1/2 from the ground. When hitched the trailer...

Found the problem of ac blowing hot air. Had the ac evacuated, pressure tested for leaks with dye and recharged. Still blowing hot air. There are next to 0 shops that will work on a class A rig, let alone, working on the dash ac. I took it upon myself to figure this out. Evans tempcon web site...

Took home a FR trailer this week and it's great. TV is a 2016 RAM 5.7. Mods include Fox 2.5 leveling shocks in the front, Fox 2.5 rear shocks and Tufttruck HD rear springs. Max TV front and rear axle ratings are 3900 lb each. Per the CAT scale, the empty TV front axle weighs 3280 lb., rear...

I want to change out the 5X (VERY bright) ceiling puck lights in my 2013 Georgetown 378XL for dimmable versions, I got confirmation from the factory that the OE ones are not dimmable. Fitting a dimming RecPro switch will be easy, but my question is which dimmable puck lights are a direct...

2006 Georgetown 35'. It's new to me. I have had the ac evacted, tested for any leaks and recharged to proper levels of R-134a. Low side hose is cold. High side line is hot. All functions of the control panel are operational. The clutch engages when I turn it to ac cool. I momentarily unplugged...
