    All New LM365 Newport

    Hi All, i don't think I need to come to Toms rescue as he seems very capable. But let me play devils advocate; Every RV has it's faults, they all need improvement. Having a venue where we can engage the players who ultimately design and bring the products to the marketplace is invaluable. The...

    Grand Canyon or Key Largo???

    One item that pushed us towrds the Key Largo was the fact that it had a unobstructed basement area. Some of the discontinued floorplans had ABS pipes that ran across that space. That was a deal breaker for me. Adam

    Improved how my Residential Refrigerator is Secured in the Slide

    I suspect you would get alot of different answers from different members on that one. My take is this; Like Gus says if its a big ticket item then its going back to the dealer for repairs. Simple. We spend alot of hard earned dollars on our units and we want them right. For the small stuff - I...

    Another 2009 Cyclone Frame bites the dust

    FJ, Sorry to hear about the damage. I trust in no time you have it all fixed up. I hate to be a computer desk quarter back but based on those photo's it would be a real long shot taking that trailer on the highway. With all due respect would you want to follow that unit up the highway if...

    Whirlpool Washer Door Problem

    Not sure what model you have but here is a thought; I used to think ours had a faulty door too, but our last Whirlpool washer and our current one requires you to close the door then push and HOLD the start button to begin the cycle. Its not just a quick "push" on the start button. My wife...

    Improved how my Residential Refrigerator is Secured in the Slide

    For whatever its worth I did put a residential fridge in our last motorhome. The doors add alot of weight to the overall fridge, however they can easily be removed and would make it alot easier for you to take your fridge out. It sounds like installing a sheet of quality plywood might reinforce...

    Improved how my Residential Refrigerator is Secured in the Slide

    Ok so Jim, We have a April build Key Largo with the residential fridge. I thought your suggestions were a quick fix to a potential problem (And I hate potential RV problems) so I had a look at our install today. Our fridge could easily be "rocked" in its enclosure. The 2 lower screws that you...

    614 Blowout

    I understand age, speed and load as factors that could lead to failure, but it would be interesting to hear about pressures. For those who have had faults with the GY's -- what pressure were you running when the tire let go? Adam

    Badly Bent Frame - A Trend??

    Dan your right, the video does show a aftermarket suspension product. The intention of the video was to try to show members the forces that act on our axle hangers. Admittedly those forces are exaggerated by the correct track extensions. No one knows that better than say Bill who is dealing with...

    Badly Bent Frame - A Trend??

    Publication 0135A outlines minimum recommendations for reinforcement, I was advised today of additional welding methods that can be used by my diesel shop to strengthen this design. They have done this to triaxle equipment floats hauling weight far in excess of my unit with excellent results...

    Badly Bent Frame - A Trend??

    I have scheduled my 2015 Landmark in for hanger corrections next week, not at a RV dealership but a local fabricating diesel shop that does heavy OTR truck and trailer repairs. I am not waiting to have issues with this design later on. I have chatted with other members who had to do these...

    Badly Bent Frame - A Trend??

    Well thats good news Dan. Thanks for your input. Perhaps Bill will chime in and let us know if the "Service Note" that he has received from Lippert calls for the repair to be done to just hangers carrying aftermarket Correct track versus the stock setup. Adam
