Howdy, I haven't been here for a while. I have a late '05 Sierra, Duramax 4x4. Last weekend it was hot, 107+, and when I returned from an errand I noticed a coolant leak from the drivers side, but could not figure out where it was coming from? The hoses are good and no residual coolant any...

Howdy, I had a couple of chairs blown into the fire so I was on the lookout for some good replacements.............Here is the site that I found........... http://www.macsports.com/ Browse the sports and recreation channel....... We bought two lounges...

I had to take the horn in to repair the ODS landing gear. The gears stripped and had to pull the leg in the field. Joe at J&L noticed the "boo boo" on the same side where a rock jumped out and tore a small section of the metal skirt. Rock attacks are quite common in the desert. He said that...

Howdy, the forum has grown since my first visit in 2006, for the better I might add. Initially most of the posts / questions were from people looking for solutions to problems, mine included. The discussions seemed to have evolved into more information sharing than a sound board for negative...

This does not sound right, a friend of mine with a Chevy 06 DMAX has been told by Chevy / GMC that he can not get a new turbo until 3/28/10. You would think there was ONE available somewhere..............

Howdy, I have considered this on the last two rigs I have had. I think adding a, wall mount, catalytic heater would be a lot more efficient, quieter, and save a lot of battery power when not hooked up. This is the type I am looking at, http://www.mrheater.com/ProductFamily.aspx?catid=57 We...

There was a Landmark in a bay at CW this morning, no sign of the owners. The TV was a blue Dodge with Canadien plates..............

Here is a link to the Morning Report............. http://www.dvnha.org/morning_report/Morning.pdf It should cool down in October..............

I would love to be able to go out in the summer, any thoughts on the link below? http://www.homedepot.ca/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CatalogSearchResultView?D=901767&Ntt=901767&catalogId=10051&langId=-15&storeId=10051&Dx=mode+matchallpartial&Ntx=mode+matchall&recN=112030&N=0&Ntk=P_PartNumber

All RV units need to be equipped according to size......... This is an obsevation, not a gripe, after 3 seasons of owning our rig................ We love or rig, I mean we really like the BH. This is our fourth RV and hands down the horn is head and shoulders above the...

I now know for certain sure how I, very occaisionaly, end up with dead batteries, and a "no start" situation. When shutting down the Duramax if the key is not in exactly in the right position the "little red" battery symbol stays lit on the instrument panel on the top right of the display. It is...

I am posting this thread in the spirit of information sharing and is not intended to be a controversial or debate inspiring post....................... The NRA, National Rifle Association, is offering free 1 yr trial memberships.. If you have ever considered joining, or just want to see what the...

We were headed to Furnace Creek for the DVLA reunion............ On Thursday the 2nd we met a couple at Peggy Sues Diner in Yermo off I15 pulling a Landmark......."Russ" from Vancouver. Then on Sunday the 5th, on the way home we saw a Bighorn on the same road headed north, south of Zzyzx road...

When we go out I leave the sensors in place for the whole trip, two weeks on one trip. I am sure this does not help the sensor life. I guess my question is has anybody had to replace a sensor? The manual is a little vague on how long they should last. My second question is how long does...

This a little time consuming but well worth the effort. When camping this a great way or reason to sit in the shade, or snow, and spend a little time conversing and enjoying a cold one.................... http://mefeedia.com/entry/bacon-bomb-barbecue-recipe-by-the-bbq-pit-boys/14093867

We just spent 10 days out dry camping, every system worked flawlessly! The four T-105's and inverter powered the rig nicely, even when using the lights when ever we wanted and using the electric coffee maker before generator hours. The first few days were amazingly warm, in the mid 80's, but...

This is our last day, it has been great! I ran into Mr nifti yesterday at the museum, small world. The NZ plates on the BH were a dead giveaway!

We are ready for the turkey day launch.......... Suzi....check Clothes....check Food...check Traditional Dinner, Lobster, Crab, Artichokes, etc..... Propane ...check Flag Poles..Check Old Glory and Gadsen.......check TPMS...check Likker, Mix, Limes ...check Firewood...check Fire Pit...check...

I am overly dilligent in maintaining the battery bank on the horn. Running out of power on a trip is a drag at best. Last night, after it cooled down, I put the charger to the equalizing setting to stir up the 'ol electrolytes, it has been six months or so and it was time. My wife went out to...

Looks like prices are going our way............... Bulk delivery: Off Road Red Dye $2.03 Clear #2 $2.29 The clear should be $2.47 actually, they left the .18 calif tax off..... I wonder when the gas stations will "get" the news?

Howdy, when we get low on water, because of the position on the water fill, I use a 12v transfer pump to pull from a 15gal jug........... Some where a while back there was a post. I believe, that explained how to use the on board pump to pull from the power / discharge drain line.... I can't...

We have just finished having the "cave" painted, sad news, we had to have the recliners moved from the horn back to the wine room........they were just too big............. The weather has turned nasty, today it was only into the low 70's and tonight it is already down to 55........I guess...

Howdy, looks like the new models have a pretty sharp cover over the pin box........ I have found them on Lipperts site, but no mention of where to get one. Has any one seen them? I guess I will call Lippert tomorrow, after I schedule the reefer recall visit.

You have to love this time of the year. The temps have have come down from the 100's into the 60's - 90's, it is finally camping weather in the desert. We replaced the Euro chairs in the Horn with Lane leather recliners from Costco, tight fit but nice! (kind of decadent really) I am busy...

Since we are beat out of going to Vegas at the end of the month "she" decided that enough is enough and we are headed out Wed for Pismo....... We are staying two days at the Flying Flags park in Buellton....... http://www.flyingflags.com/ Friday we head uo to the Pismo Coast Village resort...

With my new intake / exhaust system and the new shocks the GMC runs and feels like a brand new truck. I have 65k on the rig now and would recommend the up-grades to any body with any truck............

Howdy, when installing the mini-blinds over the windows on the LR slide this AM I found a hole over the DR window about the size of a nickel.... I did not see any foam behind it? Every other time I have pulled out a screw even there were some foam particles that came out with it, pretty...

Howdy, the kitchen slide flex that holds the slide wiring is broken at the frame, most rv's use this system now. I am thinking of using a t hinge to repair it. Any ideas? I guess I could just replace it but the fix seems easy enough.

I am pretty sure my shocks are going out. Any ideas on what a good set of replacements would be. I am not racing so all I need is a good heavy duty set that doesn't cost a fortune............

I could not find the screw on access parts for the UDC any where so I e-mailed HL on Fri, late their time. I received a reply this AM and have ordered EXACTLY what I needed!!! They had 2 types to choose from and they are on there way.......... This is a big deal as ordering through a dealer is...

I have searched, checked D&W, and part sites for the screw on covers for the bottom access to the UDC. One is MIA and the other is stuck in place and cracking from attempts to remove it........The hole is 5" dia....If any one has seen the replacement part(s) I would sure like to know......

Howdy, sounds like a few of you out there have the Edge system, has any one heard of or used this system............. http://www.pmtdiesel.com/_e/GM_Diesel_6_6L/product/GM66PP6/Performance_PackageGM_6_6L_Duramax_Diesel_2004_5_2005_LLY.htm A friend of mine uses it in his GMC and hauls...

After seeing it on this forum, and after a friend of mine got a real surprise when he went to dump after a week out, AND his kid had pulled the black tank valve playing in the CG. I installed the Valtera "fail safe" valve on the end of the dump line...

Howdy, I have to say that Lippert seems to want to do the right thing. They replaced all my springs etc last year, under warranty..... I have had concerns about the axles being mounted out of square so they are sending me to the shop to have it verified, and fixed, again under...

This is kind of scary! http://video.aol.com/video-detail/5th-wheel-are-not-good-to-atm-collapses-on-top-of-truck/1752478479

Howdy, I had the fuel filter changed out this morning and what a difference! I bet I have 25% more power! I have been running them for 10k miles and changing the oil and cleaning the K&N air filter every 5k. From now on they all get done at 5k period!

This seemed somewhat newsworthy to me, I do not exchange the 20#'ers for re-filling, but I do exchange the old style tanks for the new ones. It saves a lot of money vs buying a new tank and filling it up, around $20 a unit......We keep 5 or 6 around for the old earthquake kit!
