    Leaking sink

    My last plumbers putty repair lasted a year but with almost no use. I'm buying the RVers goop and will decide when the next leak happens Thanks poosu

    Broken Bed

    The hinge screws pulled out of the moving side of the bed board. There is no room to add thickness under the particle board where it pulled out. Storing the coach in a remote location is a pain I can't go look at or try anything. The counterweight cylinders have a piece of 2x2 to attach to...

    ATF: North Country - black water tank cleaning

    Good suggestions. Does the Voltera gate valve replace the existing valve or is it downstream? Thanks poosu

    ATF: North Country - black water tank cleaning

    Thanks for the quick response. My tank is a straight shot under the toilet so that is easy. I'll meditate on the rotating wand. We have not stored ours with any fluid in it. We are in Florida also so winterizing is not an issue.

    ATF: North Country - black water tank cleaning

    I would like to know how the black water tank cleaning system on my 2010 North Country 27 bhs works. All I know is there is a garden hose attachment on the side of the coach. When you hook a hose to it, more stuff does come out of the tank. Is this a rotating device internal to the tank? Do...

    ATF: North Country - Water damage under slides

    I am very grateful for this thread. I was unaware of this problem, but when I checked my slide I could see the deterioration of the plywood beginning. I ended up putting an aluminum angle over the plywood end and screwing it to the plywood from the bottom. Countersunk the screws into the...

    Leaking sink

    No one is probably looking at this any more, but the problem isn't at a threaded fitting, it's the seating surface between the sink and the sink drain basket. Is this a place for RVers GOOP?

    Broken Bed

    Sorry this takes so long to reply, but for those who have repaired the bed board, did you reinstall the counterweight cylinders of just leave them off and hold the bed up manually?

    Broken Bed

    Can't do this. The both side of the bed board, the stationary and the hinged part are on top of a 2x4.

    Leaking sink

    I see I need to add RVers GOOP to my supplies. Never heard of it. Surprised Camping World didn't recommend it, but thanks.

    Broken Bed

    Hopefully this isn't a dumb question, but can you buy plywood in a size that allows a single piece bed board? It looks like it's bigger than 4 feet in both directions. I store the trailer remotely and can't measure it.

    Leaking sink

    On our last trip we were about a week out and found water in with the utensils in our top drawer under the sink. Our sink drain had worked loose for the second time. First time was over a year ago on another trip. First time I took it out and re seated it with plumbers putty. This time I...

    Broken Bed

    Our latest issue happened while packing to head home last weekend. We lifted the bed to store something under it and when we closed it I felt the wood under the mattress shift. We opened it again and the hinges had ripped out of the particle board. After crawling in and checking I thought it...

    Towmax tires.

    On 9/9/13 I wrote on this thread that I had had no problems with my Towmax tires. Just after that we left on a trip around the SE states. Got 150 miles from home with my wife driving and BOOM. The newest (because it was the spare for half of the trips) of the remaining Towmax tires blew. Put...

    Why Tires fail

    ST tires are only rated to 65 MPH? I wonder why the guy who went over all the stuff on our trailer when we bought it new never mentioned that. His spiel was overwhelming but neither my wife of I remember anything about speed. Seems like safety items that newbies have no way of knowing should...
