    black tank flush system

    We just bought a brand new North Trail and I am having the same problem. Used the black tank flush one time and walked back inside to find the inside of the bathroom cabinet soaked and water running under the wall into the hallway. Without sounding cheesy, I'm not a happy camper. Now I guess...

    Who pulls with a Tundra??

    Even if you loaded the trailer to max GVWR and you were not filling the bed full of heavy stuff, you would be well under the TR and TW on the Tundra. I would recommend a weight distribution hitch (600lb version) and a friction sway bar just to make the drive more relaxing and comfortable.

    Questions about 183 entertainment center & bunks

    The bottom bunk also raises up and can be "latched" in place to access the pass through storage in the rear. No need to cut anything out. The top bunk can also be locked into the raised position with a simple sliding latch.

    Leaking toilet anyone?

    Re: Leaking toiler anyone? I will take a look at the "throne" this coming weekend to see which model it is. A few of them look really similar, not sure which we have.

    Leaking toilet anyone?

    Leaking toilet anyone?

    Hey folks! My wife and I have had our new to us 183 out two (4-day) weekends in a row, and on about day 2 of the most recent weekend, we discovered a bit of water on the floor of the shower. I traced the water around the right side (facing the toilet) and to the back. I can feel dampness up...

    SOLVED: Please Help with Water pump/ Heater etc..

    Re: Please Help with Water pump/ Heater etc.. In case a 183 owner reads this looking for the same solution, the pump is located just inside the door, at floor level, behind the small panel. You will need to move the extinguisher to get to the screws. OP: I posted here, but it didn't show up...

    Jason, On your swap, did you just swap the head? (about $40 on eBay) or did you but the whole set-up (about $140ish)?? I've seen posts that have knobs to turn the antenna and some with lights to indicate the signal strength. Which mod did you go fo? I'm very interested in doing this, but...

    ATF: MPG - Storage Door Locks

    I ordered all new locks from the site I linked. Time will tell how they hold up. I almost pulled the trigger on the "pop machine" style keyed locks. A little pricey for me at this point.. trying to outfit the thing with other stuff since it is new to us
