Thanks for the input. I just wanted to know normal temp range and what was expected during burnishing period. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I just bought the same old manual electric brakes that came on it. Just wanted to go a cheaper route while I learned what to do in case I broke something. A couple of the seals were leaking or the factory just pumped way to much grease in there. Next time definitely going to upgrade the...

Finally got around to checking bearings, replacing seals and installing new drums on our 5th wheel. Thanks for all the previous posts on part numbers, double vs single lip seals, and other related topics that helped me feel confident enough to give it a try. Through all your posts I...

We have a couple but they do get loud if to much dust gets caught in the screen. Keep them clean and blow out any dust for good measure. https://www.recallrtr.com/dehumidifier There have been a bunch of recalls so good idea to check if you already own one to see if it has a known problem.

I see some of you are still giving the manufacturers a pass. Is there any other house, car or truck you might purchase that you have to spend multiple days exploring for the defects that were overlooked. If one of these companies stepped up and actually quality controlled their products...

Just had G614's put on my trailer and spare. The small town I was in had limited tire resources so I had the tires delivered and then they mounted them. They put the rubber/metal stem on and said they were the high pressure ones. Apparently they called the vendor who said they will take 110...

I looked into many options but just ordered a Bostitch BTFP02012 6 Gallon Pancake Compressor for $99 on Amazon. Goes to 150 psi and refills quicker than the small tank I was using. Others posted it works for rv tires and at $99 I don't mind leaving it in the RV.

My big blow out was less than a week ago. I saved my tires and filed a report with NHTSA like mentioned above. Those are good example prior to explosion so may be of interest to investigators. If I don't hear anything soon I will be collecting names to pressure them into properly...

Thanks but saving in case DOT wants the tire. Not going to give it back for some prorated rebate. But will give it to investigators who can work on getting a recall going.

Also interested in if the trailer aid works. Had major blow out the other day and good Sam road assist was worthless and I have been paying for years. We had the blow out in the mountains and barley got the trailer off the road. Asked them to start a tow ASAP but they wanted to ask a bunch of...

I will call Monday. It looks like the 2 wire multi color came out of the Frame and was just exposed wire. That seems to be the 12 volt lights to the slide. The 3 wire should have come out of the junction box and into the slide for the power. I can't see any other holes where wires...

Thanks for the info. It will give me a good starting place.

I had every intention of replacing my tires after reading all the problems these towmax tires have cause over the last few years. But life just got the better of me and I kept putting it off. Like many of the others who said why change them if I monitor them properly and check pressure all...

Good point. My last trailer I bought at the lot and learned about the tire issues after I purchased it.

That sucks. Sorry to hear it. I still haven't replaced mine but check them before any trips until I can replace them. I won't buy any trailers in the future if they don't start putting quality tires on them from the factory. No excuses. I would pay a few hundred more for quality tires but...
