    Hi all, Just got my 2018 Rockwood a213hw last week and has a question about the electric brake. Anyone know if the brake is self-adjusting? If not, any recommendations on how frequent it should be adjusted? Thanks.

    just upgraded to a 5th wheel

    We just upgraded to a 5th wheel from our Microlite 25FKS and the dealer offered an option of safety chains for the pin hitch. Seems to me that if it's a safety issue chains would be standard. Does anyone have opinions on this so called option? Thanks!

    I got some info from my previous post. I called a local recommended Automotive place and they told me that, unfortunately, they do not work on RV's anymore due to space limitations.

    Wheels/bolt pattern

    Hey guys, picked up a ‘21 T25RQGMX in June. Took it out twice and noticed I lost a center cap. Does anyone know what brand the wheels are? It says “Gladiator” on the cap, but I can only find tires made by them. Also, what is the bolt pattern for the 15” wheels?

    31L5C wheel size beware!

    I started a new thread instead of replying to captain Ron’s so hopefully more will see it. I have a 2021 31L5C, yes a “C” on the end. What that stands for, I say Covid because it caused it. I thought all GT5’s had 22.5” wheels like everyone else thought, and their brochure does say 22.5”, I’ve...

    We looked at a 2022 GT5 31L5 yesterday at a local dealer and was surprised to see that it has 22.5" wheels! I can't find any info on this on the FR web site or brochures. Is this an option or a change for the 2022 model year?
