    Arctic wolf vs Sabre 5th wheel

    We are looking at the Artic Wolf 3810 suite and Sabre 38DBL. Is there any real quality difference between the Artic Wolf and Sabre lines? Direct comparisons would be great but pluses and minus for either one would be very helpful too. There are things we like better on each, mainly from online...

    Steering Wheel Controls On A Non-Plus Cab...

    ...is possible, but it takes some work. The newest M2 cabs have 72 tooth steering shafts, just like a Cascadia. Which means Cascadia steering wheels with controls will bolt right up. The real trick is linking the buttons to the truck. The steering wheel uses two wires that each button press...

    Impact Sockets for Wheel Lugs

    Hey Gang, Looking to pick up a set of impact sockets in case I need to remove the tires on whatever Rockwood I end up with. Do Rockwood wheels generally dictate thin wall impacts or regular impacts? I'm thinking of this set: Sunex 2611 1/2-Inch Drive Extra Thin Wall Deep Impact Socket Set

    Wheel center caps- alternative to wheel simulators

    Lost one front hubcap/simulator. I don't mind if it's naked now. The dust cap(?) is still there, but I'd like to install a center cap to perhaps lessen accumulation of dirt in there. Has anyone found a push in 4 inch center cap for their E-450 front wheel?

    Fix a Flat or Lift Wheels to Lube

    For all Rockwood Roo or Flagstaff Shamrock owners, I used the Camco Trailer Aid Plus to lift each wheel of my Roo to lube the bearings. It is also great for changing a flat during a trip. Sure beats having to use a jack. Here is a photo of the Trailer Aid Plus in use:
