    Custom Wheels on TV

    Something I never thought about until the other day. I have aluminum wheels on my dually but the stock steel wheel as a spare. If I got a flat and had to use the spare, the lug nuts that I use on the aluminum wheels will not work on my spare...could be a bad situation. Simple solution was to...

    2014 Sierra 5th Wheel Water Heater Question

    I have a 12 gallon quick recovery water heater. In the excitement of receiving it last fall and setting it up this spring I neglected to ensure the heater tank had water in it before powering up the camper.

    Another 5th Wheel Jacking Question

    I want to raise both tires, on one side, at the same time on our Ultralight 2898ks. It has torsion axles and I have searched the forum and discovered the best place to place bottle jack is on the sub-frame between the two axles. I know to raise the tires until they just clear, but my question...

    FCA Recall re 2012-2021 RAM 5500 Wheel Studs - Bad Torque Info in Manaul

    Got my notice today. Surprised I couldn't find anything in this Forum on it yet. It appears the owners manual had incorrect info re lugnut torque instructions that could result in overtorqued lug nuts that in turn could result in cracks/failure of wheel studs. Not good. Fix appears to be an...

    Last month in IDAHO we had a catastrophic wheel failure in our 2020 Isata 3. While driving on I-90 both dual wheels on the driver's side came off without warning: just a big boom and then scary as hell until I regained control of the RV and navigated to the shoulder. Both dual wheels off of...

    Hand Packing the wheel bearings

    For all you "Hand Packers" out there. How do you clean the bearings and what do you do with the left over cleaning solvent. Most of my life I had access to a solvent cleaning station and now I don't. :campfire:

    Fuel Dispensing Switch & pump? 07 385RLTS 5thwheel ToyHauler

    Hi, I have not used the gas pump on my 5th wheel. It's a 07 FR All Am Sport 385 RLTS Toy Hauler. Is it just gravity drained, or should a pump come on when I pull the "Fuel Dispensing Switch" and pull the handle on the fuel nozzle? I'm thinking there's a pump that's not working. Maybe...
