    Trying to find a wheel

    I do not have one that matches yours but I do have a set of 4 that I just took off my 2015 Big Country. I would bet that I what I would take for all four would be less than a dealer would want for one. Steve

    Jerrod, Can you provide any update as to how the tires are working out? Steve

    Project LM 365

    Jerrod, If I am not mistaken you have the Moreride IS on your rig. Do you see any difference in how the trailer tows and is there more bouncing? I need to replace my tires on our Big Country which has the Saulin's presently so the tire diameter is only .38 inches small on the Continentals which...

    Cut my hydraulic line

    I replaced all of my hoses after the animals chewed thru one and I had bubbles in another. I found that every line was extra long. You should have enough to do a quick splice to repair it until you can replace the hose with a new one. Several of mine were wire tied so I had to drop the...

    Retiring

    Dan, It has been a pleasure reading your post and meeting you way back at the Las Vegas rally. You have always been a great source of knowledge and you will be missed. I wish you the very best in your new chapter. It seems that there is a large turnover and an even bigger change to the forum. I...

    new solar install - question for those who installed panels on roof

    Several years ago I mounted 6 panels using aluminum angle brackets that I made. Using 10 struts will add a bunch of unwanted weight. Keeping the weight down as well as keeping the panels as close to the roof as possible is important. If you use small lag bolts and then cover the brackets with...

    2011 Big Horn 3070RL slides

    On my Big Country I had the factory install an isolation block so I could open or close a slide even though I have a single switch. This separate manifold has two knobs one for each slide. If I close the valve then the slide will not extend of retract. To truly separate then then each slide...

    Solar Help

    Derald, Cutting the electric bill by 2/3's is a pretty tall order to fill but it is possible. This being said you will need to do some math and little investagating. You first need to know what the total load per day your system uses. Then doing some test to see how much you can charge in a...

    Level-Up Jacks dropped during storage

    I just finished this weekend replacing all of the hydraulic lines. I had several that were leaking from the same location. The hose shop that I went to said it was a common problem with these hoses. It was such a hassle snaking the lines I gave up and dropped the bottom. After inspection I found...

    Solar Help

    Just my experience but the solar panels are best in a series/parallel combination. The reasons have been listed above but if they are all done in series then the wire gauge running from the roof to the charge controller would need to be very large to compensator for the voltage drop. This drop...

    RV lock upgrade

    I wonder if they have a replacement for the cargo bay door lock also. I have the same trouble with the older keypads. They do NOT last long. The sun just destroys them making them brittle and pron to cracking.

    Landmark 365 awning track size

    We replaced our awning with material from Tough top awnings. They sent new rib and it fit just fine. I did not put the plastic LED track back since it was broken and I could not find one to replace it. I would give them a call and talk to them. They were very helpful.

    Glow Step Revolution Steps

    We too have had these steps installed on our Big Country for a little over 5 years. I love them and have had to do nothing but spray them with a little silicone. One of the most dependable upgrades I have done.

    Solar Help

    Derald, I am not sure how it is all set up but the one thing that stands out to me is the cut over voltage of the batteries. 11 volts for the lower cut over voltage seems to be too low. From all I know about AGM batteries is that at 12.25v the batteries are at 50% charge. This is about as low as...
