Hi, I have a 2010 31bdss with the molded back plastic bumper cap. Is there anyone who has changed the rear of their trailer to bumper style so that I could put a bike rack there? Or is this not possible with this model?

Re: No brakes on new Landmark Key Largo. I agree. I had a similar issue last year where I kept getting a short fault on my controllers. It was where all the blue wire were connected with a marette. All I did was clean and reinstall. I also added dielectric grease in the marette to keep some...

lynn1130, I see that you put on some cooper tires. Are they lt tires and what size? I just put some at3 on the back of my half ton. Like others have posted, there are lots of options for 16" and bigger, but for travel trailers and 15" wheels, we are short on options. I have been looking for an...

if its a 4x4 i'd change the oil in the front diff and transfer case also. Can't hurt.

I went on tire rack to see info because I like their filter setup. Here is what I found: ST225 75 LRD 2540lb @65psi, LT 235 75 LRD 2335 @65, 255 70 LRD 2553 @ 65 psi. I wonder how goofy the 255 would look on a trailer. They are only about an inch and a quarter wider than the 225's, but they...

I agree with overkill but was leaning in the direction of LT tires, not ST. The reason I was thinking this route is that I haven't been able to find Maxxis in my area and everything else doesn't have me convinced that its better than what I have now. This led me to LT 235's. My axles are 4400lb...

I am like the rest of you- worried about the tow max tires. But from what i have read, most of you have 16" wheels. I am wondering what many of you with the 15" tires are doing - specifically 225/75-15 LRD. I have been looking or thinking about going to Lt 235/75-15 instead-one size bigger. The...

Re: Brakes wont lock Thanks for all the replies. I'll give them an try and let you know. It won't be for a week or so.

I just got the reese straight line installed. Hopefully give it a try in the next few weeks.

Re: Brakes wont lock no, i never did take them apart. I guess I thought it was new and should be good. When I adjusted them, I snugged them up until they were kind of hard to turn and them backed them off eight turns. For three wheels that ended up being two clicks tighter than previous. One...

A quick question for the brake experts here. I have a 2010 nt 31bdss with about 600km on it. When I bought it new I didn't think the brakes were all that strong. I recently bought a f150 max tow screw which has the integrated brake controller. I checked the brakes and ended up tightening 3...

The hitch I used is very dated. I have no idea what brand it is. I added a friction bar to it and it helped quite a lot. But, I don't think the bars were big enough and my truck was loaded or overloaded (97 f150 4x4). I never had trouble, but I'm used to heavy equipment. As mentioned, balancing...

If there is a duplicate of this reply, its because I messed up here. Any problems with 225 75 15 LRD size powerKings? I called a tire shop that does not sell this brand and he said that they are a real good tire and to go ahead and wear them out. Mine are on a 2010 31bdss, and have 500-600 miles...

Thanks for the replies. Please keep them coming. This is a good thread for those new to the market or looking to upgrade. There is nothing better than personal experience. I did contact Sean at Propride and it sounds like those type of hitches are the best. I just couldn't justify the expense at...

Just wondering what brand of antisway hitches some of you are using for TT. Please mention how you like it and if you have a comparison to other brands. I have a 2010 NT 31BDSS and recently purchased a reese dual cam hitch. I have not yet installed it. On another forum, I am seeing that people...
