    Rear Camera Upgrade

    Is it possible to replace the single rear camera on the earlier M2s with the new dual camera? Anyone know if the dual operates with one or two communication cables? My guess is two making the upgrade very difficult.

    Toilet Upgrade

    I have a 2021 Isata 3. The Thetford toilet is defective and allows back splash and odor from the black tank. I took it to my dealer and after a month they've gotten approval to replace it under warranty but the replacement is not available and is back ordered. I'm considering not waiting and...

    Lithium Upgrade BIM to LI-BIM

    2016 Berkshire 34 QS, DP has 4 Lead Acid batteries I am converting to Lithium. Seems pretty straight forward, but you have to use a different BIM and install a battery monitor and make sure your charger is set for Lithium. All this is well documented in several places and I have reviewed them in...

    Suspension upgrade?

    I really thought I’d get a few suggestions to my 5r suspension upgrade question. BTW, I have a friend with the duplicate of my 5r. He told me about a suspension equalizer he had installed which greatly improved handling. When I looked at it, I saw that it is a square tube connecting both...

    Window Shade Upgrades

    So we have the zebra blinds that come with all Cherokee branded RV's and over the past couple of years have really come to disliking them. Only good thing about them is they offer day and night shading for the windows. However, I think we're ready to replace them with either day and night...

    2020 Isata 5 Upgraded Slide Mechanism

    I am considering the purchase of a used Isata 5 30FW. The seller indicates that the unit was recently back at the factory "to install the UPGRADED slide mechanism". I spoke directly with this seller on the phone and everything he says sounds reasonable and makes sense. But, in my research on...

    Upgrade Standard Vent Fans

    I haven't found any posts on this since 2018, so I'm asking for some recent opinions and experiences on the subject. I'm curious if anyone upgraded their tiny RV vent fans that come standard in most RV's these days. My 37FLH came from the factory with small 4 inch cheap vent fans that barely...

    Finally got the time/weather to add the additional 4 100w panels i bought back in Oct. Install went smooth, I used magnets to find the steel roof cross members and 3" coated self tapping screws to attach 1" aluminum tubing. Then attached the panels to the aluminum with 1" self tapping screws...

    Mattress upgrade

    We just purchased a mattress for our previous camper that was an RV king (72x80). Depending on comfort, we may want to move that to the Riverstone 42FSKG we are buying. Has anyone done this by chance? I suspect it might cause issue with the closet slide in the bedroom, but wanted to see if...

    Toilet upgrade for 2020 Freelander 27QB

    Hi all! I have a 2020 Freelander 27QB and am having problems with the cheap plastic toilet that it came with. I asked our RV shop (which is WAY over-priced) about upgrading the toilet to a porcelain model with sprayer and they said that they would have to charge us at least an extra hour of...

    Upgraded equalizers equalize better?

    Pulled my new 5th wheel across the scales yesterday. Was surprised that the rear axle had 1000lbs more weight than the front. I think I’m a touch nose high, but not real noticeable….maybe 2 inches over a 38ft trailer. The axles are 5100lb rated. Front was 3660lbs and rear 4660. Only reason I...
