This recall applies to other manufacturers also. I'm assuming that they are Lippert axles. Either a new trainee assemblng the bearings on the axles or they ran out of rear races and had to keep the line running. .

I replaced the suspension on my 2014 Big Country with both the Liberty Rider and Joy Rider systems. Our BC has a rear kitchen and was getting beat up pretty bad because of the stock suspension. The difference is remarkable. I also upgraded the new springs from 6000 to 7000 pounds. The springs...

I purchased a 12V fresh water pump from Harbor Freight. I then wired it with a standard 7 pin truck to rv power connector. I have a 45 gallon fresh water bladder that I can fill at a water source and then pump into my fresh water tank when boondocking.

Don, I can't remember if I let you know that Diane and I will tag along for the Wednesday dinner or not. Anyway, accept this as official notification that we will be there! Mike Roberts

Jim, if you're not boondocking on BLM property, you're not getting a true Quartzsie experience. 2019 will be our thied Q experience thanks to the federal government.

Jim Beletti, I see that you spoke with Mike Sokol in regards to being a presenter at the National Rally and that he has accepted. I would like to thank you for contacting Mike and having him as a presenter. You might need extra room in the hall for his presentations. I'll be bringing my...

Roadmaster did not engineer the parts for this system. The system was designed in Indiana. The original names for the suspension systems are: Joy Rider for the gas shocks system and Liberty Rider for the slipper springs and mounting components. I have both systems on my Big Horn, with a rear...

Hi Bill, I always enjoy your posts, especially the ones regarding electronics. It gives me great pleasure to say that I can actually correct a mistake that you made in the above post. The RV refrigerators absorb the heat not adsorb. I hope that you take this post in the lighthearted manner that...

I have installed the ARP control system in my Norcold refrigerator. I also installed their fans in both the intake and exhaust grills, the fans on/off are controlled by the ARP system. The ARP system is one way to prevent fires in an RV refigetator.

Hi Tim, we are also owners of a Big Country 2950RK. Ours is a 2014 model year. We love our 2950RK. The kitchen layout sold my wife on this model. It also met most of our other requirements. I believe the main difference in the floorplan is that our refrigerator is on the driver's side wall in...

Jim, based on our plans as of today my wife and I will be at Quartzsite that week. When in that area we boondock on BLM property.

Thanks Jim. I believe that his presentation would be worth the cost. I know that most of the presenters come from the Indiana RV community and all do a great job. I would pay to hear his presentation, to offset or subsidize his charges. If judging about RV electrical knowledge, from owners, just...

No comment in regards to Mike Sokol as a presenter?

No, with your gas motor you do not have exhaust braking. But, with a gas motor you do have compression braking, just downshift into a lower gear. Just watch your RPMs. It may scream a little but you will be fine.

Mike Sokol from "The No Shock Zone" would be an excellent presenter for one of the technical presentations. His presentations are pretty complete regarding RV electrical systems and he explains in language that everyone can understand.
