    12 Volt Short

    I have a short somewhere in my Bighorn 3400rl. When I connect or disconnect the battery I get a spark at the negative terminal. Not a wire burning spark but a good quarter inch spark. If I leave the battery connected without ground or truck power the battery will discharge in 48 hours. I have...

    Tires offset just a little

    While looking at my 3400RL today I noticed the tires were offset just about 1/2 in. By this I mean the rear axle sticks out 1/2 in, on the drivers side and 1/2 in inboard on the door side. I have a 8 foot metal straight edge used by carpet layers so it is easy to check axle to axle alinement...
