    Upgrade to a powered awning

    Asking for a friend. 2005 Sunseeker currently has a manual pull out awning and want to change it to a powered awning. I would take the manual one completely off and install a powered awning. Running the power wire will be the easy part. Just wondering if anyone else has done this and if you had...

    Isata 3 Lithium upgrade question

    I am dialoging with Battle Born regarding upgrading my coach to lithium. They are asking what the alternater output is on my 2017 MB chassis (2019 Isata3). Apparently it can't be more than 120 amps. Does anyone have any solid information on this matter? Thanks

    Upgrade for rear camera and display for 3011DS

    I just purchased a 2020 Forester 3011DS and am pretty happy with it so far. I am not blown away by the rear camera and the dash display. Has anyone upgraded their in-dash Sony AX1000 (I think) with a better unit and hopefully a larger display? Side cameras seem to have really good quality but...

    Can I upgrade tires to load range E with my rims?

    I've owned many, many campers over the past 45 years, but need some guidance on whether or not I can upgrade my tires from load range D to E, given my current rims. I have a 2021 Solaire 260FKBS travel trailer that cane with ST225/75R15/D Castle Rock tires. The sticker on the camper says...

    Rockwood Roo 235s – toilet upgrade 👌

    We have a brand new Rockwood Roo 235s and love it. This year has been an endless camping bonanza for our family. Last weekend we began smelling urine in the bathroom. Regardless of how much we cleaned the toilet and bathroom, the smell remained. Thankfully this forum is always full of answers...

    Some Of My Upgrades

    Here are some of the upgrades I've done to my Flagstaff A-frame and/or truck: I was a bit concerned that the plastic nut holding the spare tire cover on would vibrate off and I'd lose the cover so I (being me) over engineered a solution. I machined a threaded knurled nut with a hole near the...

    WiFiRanger: anyone upgrade to larger or directional antennas?

    My 2020 Flagstaff SuperLite came from the factory with the WiFiRanger range extender mounted to the roof. I think it is a Sky4. At least that the model that they list for the current models. Its the little box with 2 rubber antennas sticking out. So lets get this out of the way first. I know...

    Sony Upgrade Issue

    Ok, I am an electronic geek, so with that said, there is an upgrade available for the in-dash Sony radio. I followed the instructions and it did not work. I was on the phone with Sony tech support and they confirmed that I may have a bad unit (Although it functions it will not upgrade). They...

    Disc brake upgrade for 5k Dexter torsion

    I’ve been looking for a disc brake upgrade for the 5k E-Z lube Dexter axles on my 2018 Rockwood Signature Ultra Lite 5er. Anyone been down this path? Do you just bite the bullet and junk the dexters and put another suspension with discs under it? Tried querying for this subject with no luck.

    Wlidwood X-Lite Suspension Upgrade

    Has anyone done an upgrade to the center equalizer on a Wildwood X-Lite? I'd love to upgrade to something with a little more beef (and cushion) but it seems the height from the top of the tire to the floor is a bit restrictive.

    Stereo upgrade

    I have a 2020 16pfbl wolf pup and I’m looking at getting a new stereo. Does anyone know of a 2 zone stereo from a reputable brand that gives decent sound quality? I’m sure that everything furrion makes is garbage judging by what’s in my camper!!! All the brands I find online are non mainstream...

    Positive: Ford F-150 Towing Mirror Upgrade

    After searching threads like crazy and a lot of web browsing and YouTube watching I finally located what I believed to be the correct towing mirrors (Ford SuperDuty style ones) to upgrade my 2020 F150 XLT Supercrew Sport with Max Tow (which for unknown reasons still comes with the regular sport...

    Upgrade outdoor speakers 2017 I-5 36 DS

    Did a necessary upgrade on the outside entertainment speakers. Necessary because the factory installed speakers were blown and crackling when on. Looks like these were just ordinary automotive type speakers and likely succumbed to the outside humidity and road vibration. Since I was replacing...

    Our best Isata 3 upgrades so far

    We have a 2017 RW. We put dimmers on most of the light switches and added improved speakers inside. We then put Michelin Agilis all around which made a nice improvement in the ride. This weekend we changed the Anderson 200RV plastic valve to the Anderson MAN101RV-RF all brass valve. Today we...

    Anderson Valve upgrade to MANRV101-RF

    Has anyone upgraded their RV200 to the new all brass MANRV101-RF? We were told it was a direct replacement but it seems that connections are flipped and they are leaking. What seemed like it should be easy and quick has turned into a headache. We have a 2017 Isata 3 RW

    3500# > 4400# Dexter Axle Upgrade

    We have a 2020 Apex Nano 187RB, Outfitter and Off-Grid packages. So, with all that added weight, we only have about 450lbs of cargo capacity with a 3800# GVWR. Haven't weighed it yet, but I'm sure we're overweight. I downloaded the axle spec sheet from Dexter and was comparing the 3500#...

    2021 2509s refrigerator upgrade

    We are looking at a 2021 2509s from Wana. They tell me the new 2021 models can now come with a refrigerator upgrade that I am unsure about. It is 11 cu. ft. that runs off 12v or electric plug in, no gas. It does come with a 190 watt solar panel on the roof. Does anyone have any input about...
