I have a 2013 CedarCreek Fifth wheel. I have had the unit for 3years.I have only take two trips with it to the east coast. I. That time I have not done anything with the bearings. If I need to replace them how do I know what type of bearing for this year unit would be needed. I don’t know if...
Just bought a 2019 Navi 16BH and would like to put a nicer looking pair of wheels and new, high-quality tires on it. Since it’s a single axle a want to minimize my chance of a tire failure.

After a blowout we found that our “fender covers-flairs-wheel covers-whatever they are called” are blown out on our 2018 Forest River Vengeance 388v16….
Called Forrest River they said “we don’t keep records of parts for units THAT OLD”. What the heck it’s only 5 years old!!! Anyone know where...
I looked into a couple of the rv driving school. But unfortunately nothing Is really near me . Makes the cost pretty high. I have towed landscape trailers, but nothing this big. Almost 42ft. I have a friend who has a large toy hauler he is busy , and would rather let him take care of his own...
After 40K miles just lost my first wheel simulator! It was zip tied (3) so not sure how it came off. Apparently the company that Dynamax used went out of business a couple of years ago. Any ideas on a good replacement?
I am helping a friend sell her 5th wheel. It's a 2004 Forest River Wildwood 23RBS. I cannot find the 23RBS anywhere online. The VIN is 4X4FWDY234T131931. I'd like to get some info such as a value, brochure, etc. Anybody have any links?
Hey All,
Recently upgraded my TV to a 2022 F250 and now I'm doing some research on 5th wheels.
Ford's towing guide says my max trailer weight is 14,700lbs, and my payload is 3070lbs.
From what I understand, when looking at weights for 5th wheels, I should be looking at the hitch weight...
I have a 2017 377 MB with a front bedroom. It is pre plumbed and wired for a washer/dryer in the front closet. I just purchased a washer/dryer stack to put in and need to drill a vent. The manufacturer put a sticker in the space saying "vent spot" but it is on the front wall. This poses a...
I need to replace what I call the wheel well molding on my GT5. I have contacted the local RV dealer/parts folks and they have had no luck finding a match based on that descriptor.
So, is there an official name for the plastic piece that wraps the edge of the wheel well?:banghead:
14.9 MPG towing about 11k pounds with my 2020 F250 Diesel 10 Speed Tranny.
Granted was measured by Truck Computer so some error but I was pretty pleased. This stretch of road from Coalinga Cali to Indio Cali helped as no large mountains, Dry Pavement AND we actually got thru Pasadena area...

Just before Thanksgiving I drove to RV Nation in Ohio to pick up my new Salem Hemisphere 286RL it was a 475 mile trip for me but they had the best price around for the unit I wanted. I ordered it with auto leveling & whatever else it comes with but no solar panels. I got it home and tried the...
I've been using the same 16k Reese tilting hitch for about ten years. On visual inspection, it appears perfectly serviceable and functions normally. This is the second fiver I've towed with it, neither more than 12.5k in weight. Most of my towing has been long distances over interstates, and...
Has anyone else had quality issues with the Impression 5th wheels. We purchased a 2022 280RL and it has been in the shop more than we've been able to use it. Trim issues, drawer issues and now the furnace doesn't work. Are we the only ones having more than the usual amount of issues with a new...
My furnace is blowing the 15Amp fuse. I think the fan is frozen. I think the furnace is under the stairs. Do you get to it by removing the stairs somehow or access it thru the cargo hold ?

I'm having trouble finding a pair of X chocks that fit the narrow space between the tandem wheels on my 2022 235S. It looks like the space between the tires is about 2 3/4" and nothing I've bought so far will work in that narrow space. Before I try to make a homemade version (something I'd...
