upgrade

We are new second hand owners of a 2016 Salem Hemisphere which we plan to leave at our FL RV park for six months each summer. We have one Dometic AC unit, with a basic thermostat which also controls the furnace (which we don't need). I would like to have more options, including a cooling...

My husband and I own a 2014 Wildwood DBUD and love it, but are looking to upgrade to a 2016 year model camper. The one we’re looking at has bunks as well. I feel that the bunks are wasted space now because my kids are grown but not married and my oldest has a camper of his own. We thought...

Best upgrade I've done yet. This is on my Force, but it would apply with any models that have a 24x14 sink opening. The two issues with the original was, 1) the bays in the two bay sink were too small to fit all but the smallest of post/pans, and, 2) the faucet arm does not extend far enough...

We switched out our batteries to LiFePo4, and like many have found out the hard way, the cheap ones do not have protection to keep them from charging when they are freezing, which will ruin them. Because of this I wanted a thermometer and something to disconnect them when they are below...

My RV came with the Cherokee Juice Pack solar package with one 50W solar panel. The dealer did however install 2 batteries for me to extend the life a little longer. I have done much research through forums, youtube, and articles online and am now more confused than every about solar. I am...

Here are some finished pictures of our upgrade to lithium, moved batteries to rear, installed new power center with lithium charger, prepped for portable solar and too much rewiring to count. Purchased two 100ah SOK LiFePo batteries, moved to rear of camper under the jackknife sofa. Replaced...

Will Forest River do this if you are not the original owner? I'm in the process of purchasing a 2011 Berkshire 390 BH and I don't know if it has or needs the upgrade. I have an NRVIA inspection scheduled for this Sunday. I live out of state so I won't be there for the inspection. I've...

Some of the upgrades that I have been working on. Removed the padded panel and replaced with a board to mount the inverter on. I know that isn't recommended but I couldn't think of any other way to fit it. Made up baskets to fit in the pantry. Not shown is the bungie cord restraints in...

Hello, I am interested in upgrading my flimsy OE jack. I have read the "top ten" list as well as a bunch of threads, but want some real world practical advice. I am not above overkill in making my decision. It seems like Husky is the go to. My hitch weight is in the 500lb range and the trailer...

My 2013 Georgetown dash mounted Clarion VX401 went blank on my last outing. Have any of you upgraded theirs? I saw that the screen can be replaced at low cost, but some of the screens are being shipped out of China, and I do not want to wait till June or whenever to get a replacement. I was...

Greetings, From my other thread on this forum...I was going to install the Progressive Dynamics PD9160ALV 12V converter/charger in the front pass through compartment however after some YouTubing I might go a different route... I am considering the "Victron MultiPlus Inverter/Charger 12V 3000w...

Just to show what can be done for modifications: Our '17 came with a pretty cheap 32" TV that was tied into the soundbar and wasn't all that great. Early on, we upgraded to a DVD/Blueray player and that helped a bit. Yesterday we upgraded to a 42" 4k Smart TV. The cabinet opening is 38...

Anyone attempt to replace their 3,500# axle (single) with a 5K# axle? Any advice and/or someone to take it to around LA area to look at mine? After two broken springs and replacing the tires every season due to "overloading" (translation: putting anything more than water in it, LOL) I'm done...

Well we pulled the trigger and upgrade our brakes to Electric Over Hydraulic (EOH) brakes with oil baths. Which means I never have to adjust another drum brake nor grease the axles. Well worth the money!! And the best part was installation was free!!! Video to be release in a couple of weeks at...

I’m going into the fifth year of my Castlerocks and hoping for some long trips this summer with the TT. Plan on buying 3 Goodyear Endurance. Likely via Amazon. Wolf Pup 16BHS, 3500# axle, current tires ST205/75R14. Axle was undersprung for a near 5” clearance gain. Is there any reason to go...

This is a question for those who opted for the Rockwood / GoPower 190W solar package that was included on many MY2021 units: The roof-mounted GoPower solar panel included a junction box to add a second panel to the system. Obviously, GoPower would like you to use their expansion pack, but I'm...

Has anyone with a Dynamax Force, DX3 or XL tried upgrading their stereo with a Stinger Heigh10 Stereo (or any other aftermarket stereo)? I really like the Stinger Heigh10 that's in my Jeep and would like to put one in our DX3. Their universal model (UN1810) looks like it should fit...

Not sure how much of this has been discussed in the forum before, but have any of you upgraded the number of extinguishers in your RV? Especially those with larger RV's? Where did you mount them for quick access? I've got a small, low-end extinguisher which I believe was outfitted by the...

I am about to pull the trigger on replacing the two FLA batteries in our 2016 Sunseeker with two Battleborn 100Ah lithium batteries. I have read in some places that when these batteries will draw so much current if charging while driving that the vehicle alternator will be damaged. The...

Can anyone direct me to the thread about the upgraded slide motors? Searching the forum for something specific is beyond me, I can never find what I want to see. We have a 2018 I5 30FW and have not had problems with our slide...yet. But now, every time we extend it and retract it, the motors...

Bought a new 2022 FR Coachman Cross Trail in December - the mattress is a queen Serta 80 x 60 and dog eared on bottom for bathroom door swing. does any know of a source to get the exact fit, in a firm style mattress style. The dealership has been unresponsive. Thank, Bobby

Hello I was changing my ceiling speakers only to realize there was no ceiling insulation in sight. Is there something I’m missing here? Why would there be insulation in the ceiling between the ceiling panels and roof? My tt is a forest river evo bunkhouse. Also I am considering pulling the...

Looking at upgrading the cheap Jensen head unit that came with the unit, also looking at upgrading the speakers with it. What units are plug and play that will work with all the cameras? Model is the 27qb if that makes a difference. Any help is much appreciated.

Howdy from Tennessee, Just brought home yesterday my new 23 foot 2022 Forest River Aurora Travel Trailer. Previous camping trips were in pop up camper, decided to upgrade to a travel trailer this year. So far have camping weekends or trips planned in April, May, July, August & October. Looking...

Just posted an ad selling my 7 months old 19BHLE. I really like the TT but we've recently added 2 cats and realized it's just too small for the entire family. We looked at a Rockwood 2509S and LOVE it, so the plan is to buy one of those after we sell the 19BHLE. Are we moving too quickly on...
