    Hinges popping out of their holes (21fbs)

    All of my cabinet doors did this. I took the hidges off. Put silocon under hindge, glue and match sticks into the screw holes. Put it back together with less tension on the hindge. So far so good.

    Spare tire

    I used a bumper mounted spare tire rack to put mine on the back bumper. Seems to work pretty good. I never drove the trailer with it mounted under the front bumper. Did not look like there was enough room under there for it.

    pull out bike rack

    My upright post did not line up correctly. I had to drill it out to get the pin to line up. I decided since I leave it up all the time to use a bolt instead of the pin. I used a noodle on the upright pole held on with some duck tape to pad the pole. The first bike is placed on the platform...

    Focus fx23- rear bunks

    With upper and lower bunks you need good air cirulation to prevent one area from overheating while the other area is too cold. I think the solution is to plug in a 110 volt fan if you are running the AC. I installed 2 12 volt outlets to be able to run fans. Wall-Mart automotive section...

    Power Tongue Jacks

    I do not know enough about brands to answer your question. I purchased an electric jack from Camper World and installled it myself. Only three bolts and a connection to the hot side of the battery. I think having it has made hooking up a quick and easy. I highly recommend having the...

    Gas spring shock for under bed storage.

    I was able to do this. I reused some shocks from an older camper. I had to add some wooden 2x2 to have attachment points. I will try and get some pictures and figure out how to post. My point would be if I can do it anyone can. I lifted the lid as high as I wanted the lid to open and then...
