    Seating upgrades for 3110?

    Any suggestions for replacing the powered recliners with something that can be converted to a bed, and with more underseat storage? Given the lack of pantry space in 3110 could really use more underseat storage. I'm not a fan of these recliners the motors failed within months and seems there is...

    Adding additional tie downs in garage

    Thanks for replies and suggestions. It was easy to check underneath and see the frame running front to back. So additional tie downs can be installed anywhere on the same line as existing, exactly what I needed to do. Even with fuel tanks back there the frame is visible from underneath. I put...

    Adding additional tie downs in garage

    Here is a diagram I just made that shows where I would like to put additional tie downs. And is there a recommendation for what brand tie down to use? Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

    Adding additional tie downs in garage

    I am planning to order a beast rack for securing motorcycles in the garage, the rack attaches to floor tie downs allowing it to be easily removed. I have a stacked washer dryer that prevents me from using the front most tie downs, so I am thinking of installing more tie downs about 30" back...

    What type of Hitch do I have?

    They are probably wondering if you have 5th wheel (pin), or a gooseneck (ball in truck bed). If you attach a photo of your hitch/pin box we can tell you which you have.

    Suggestions for 5th wheel hitch.

    I am happy with goosebox I recently installed on my Cyclone 3110 which I pull with SRW RAM 3500. Rides much better than the stock pinbox with solid 5th wheel hitch. Not sure how it compares with other pinbox or hitch that has air bags though. Only complaint I have is little more difficult to...

    So I ordered a Reese - Draw-Tite Goose Box 94623 and Amazon Prime :-(

    Confirmed. This chain will work with Reese kit. 1/2 chain rated for 45,000lbs. That should be enough [emoji6] https://www.etrailer.com/Safety-Chains-and-Cables/Fulton/FCHA0070324.html

    So I ordered a Reese - Draw-Tite Goose Box 94623 and Amazon Prime :-(

    Sure not smaller necessarily, but your curt hookups do look more like loops that would better accept a chain hook. On the Reese they are not really loops more like ovals and wider. I just ordered some larger hooks with chain from etrailer the website states will work with Reese ball kit. I'll...

    So I ordered a Reese - Draw-Tite Goose Box 94623 and Amazon Prime :-(

    Looks like a good kit, wish I would have got that one with the smaller loops would have worked with my chain hooks. I considered using the same kind of link, but the ones at hardware store were only rated for 2000lbs, I was afraid that might snap if chains were needed. They had larger hooks...

    Also with my goose box order from Etrailer I I got the Reese ball kit and safety chains, but the hook on the chains will not attach to the puck hookups in the bed, I have to take the hook off to get the chain through the loop. To use these hookups I would need a much larger hook and then a...

    I ordered mine from etrailer and it arrived in good condition on a pallet about one week later (I'm in Los Angeles). Free shipping, by freight company.

Main issue was only able to view one satellite at a time a problem since I have 2 tvs. Just installed a Travlr last week and while I have yet to actually connect...

    Which receiver for new Directv install?

    Confirmed the H25 is the best receiver for SWM system (new Travlr). Having the receivers delivered next week same time they are setting up system in my home. BTW word of advice if you are getting Directv DO NOT call ATT/Directv directly and use their installers. Having waiting 3 weeks thru 3...

    My disc brakes paid for themselves today

    Yep I agree, maybe not for smaller trailers, but for 10k+ disc brakes should be required there is just no comparison. The original drum brakes on my twin axle Cyclone were worthless and could barely feel them. Be sure to make this your first upgrade! You will not regret it. I feel so much safer...
