    Wheel Alignment NW Dallas County, TEXAS?

    2013 3010DS Ford E450 chassis Been trying to locate a shop to align the front end. But, the only shop I've found is Rush, near downtown Dallas. They do good work. But, they charge around $200/hr. Add in the cost to get a ride home & back from Carrollton, and it gets a bit pricey for my...

    2021 Wildwood Heritage Glen 295BH 5th wheel solar/generator question

    Does anyone know the size (wattage) of these panels and if they charge both batteries or just the fridge battery (XPEDITION) which connects to the inverter? I'm leaning towards 100 watts. I've emailed Forest River, Waaree, and my dealership with no answers yet. Also, we boondocked this past...

    Wheel arch

    Anyone have any luck finding a supplier besides Forest River that can supply the plastic wheel arches for a CC 36CK2? Ours have cracked at several of the mounting holes and we need to replace them.

    Grumpy rant about 120v wiring in my Rockwood 5th Wheel

    This weekend I did a bit of investigation into just how my Rockwood Ultra Light 2891BH has the 120V electricity distributed throughout the trailer. We occasionally have issues popping the circuit breaker when we decide to cook meals using (apparently too many) electrical cooking devices. I...

    Modified wheel cover

    2017 FR 2401R MB Sprinter lost 2 wheel covers one rear damaged the body. So I modified the rear cover, now it’s easy to check tire pressure without removing cover and still adding some chrome. Used abrasive wheel to cut the center out. Safety wire cover 2 places not going anywhere now.

    Fifth wheel towing with truck tool box

    Anyone tow a fifth wheel with a toolbox mounted in the bed? I’m sure that the 4” high boxes would be a problem but what about the low profile ones? Might upgrade to a 5er later and didn’t want to have to remove the toolbox later. Thanks in advance

    Recently purchased a Columbus Compass 297RKC. I'm trying to figure out if I need a slider or not. I have a 2021 Chevy 3500 HD with the standard box (6 3/4). I have talked to dealers and manufacturers. Getting different answers. Some say I need the slider due to not having the 8' box. Others are...
