We had made steps for our trailer at seasonal site and removed the grab handle as new steps had a side rail. Now we want to put orgrinal handle back on but can't find the pins! Have handle but no pins. Any ideas for replacement pins?

My plastic hot water outlet cracked and I broke it trying to back it out. I saw the the threads about ways to back out the plastic part. It also has a spring in it that I assume is a check valve to prevent water coming back in. If I replace the plastic part with brass how does the check...

It's been a long time since I've been here but looking for some answers. My Coby receiver won't play DVDs or CDs and I want to replace it. This sets on a shelf only about 4" high, it is not a wall mount. What is a good replacement and where can I get it? Thanks, Don PS - We have...

This was mentioned on the forum before but can't find it now. I usethe 2 step filter system, sedment and carbon, but filter size I get from Menards are too big I think. Like 5 rating. I will go to RV Water Filter Store to buy new ones but want to know best size.

I haven't noticed any leaks in our trailer. Don't most new houses use plastic instead of brass and copper now? The last 2 years we have left our trailer outside at the campgrround in northern Wisconsin and when we opened it up in the spring we didn't have any leaks. We leave our...

I dropped my land line and thus my high speed internet. I went with US Cellular(also cell phone provider) 3G and haven't had any problems at home, cabin or campground.

Have 2008 Big Country and the handle on the recliner broke. Where can I get a replacement? Thanks.

Thanks for the comments. I hunt and I'm not an anti-gun guy. Just wanted to know some reasons for carrying a pistol. Actually makes me feel safer if the good guys are packin when I'm camping. I

Curious, has anybody ever had to pull or fire their gun when camping? I've camped in public and private campgrounds and have never felt threatened. What kind of places are people camping at that need a gun? I want to stay away from those places!

4. Flip bag over once an hour for the next 24 hours Are you sure of last instruction??

We don't have a separate W/D closet and ended up putting a 5 cu ft freezer(110v) sideways in front closet. Put another dorm size (4 cu ft) refrigerator under the slide out. We ended up staying at one site for summer so weight is not a problem. Two 100 lb propane tanks eliminate running...

I replaced some of my locks with round locks from http://www.mrlock.com/eshop/locks/index.html?bread. Can get them all keyed alike if you want. They have all sizes. That being said a screwdriver and 30 seconds is all it takes to get in. It will prevent somebody from using the generic...

Freezer in Closet We put our 5 cu ft freezer in the front closet where the washer/dryer setup would be. It goes sidewise in the closet and is really not that big of footprint. Got a 4 cu ft refrig/freezer and put it outside under the curb side slide. We stay one place all summer so we don't...

I ordered heavy axle(7000#) when I got my BC. It came with G tires but Chinese(Freestar) which I swapped out next year for Goodyears. Dealer said get a tire dealer to swap but they wouldn't touch them. Question is did this come with heavier springs for 7000# or did it come with springs for...

My truck came with 245 tires and BIL had 265 tires on his 3500. I think the 265 has about 400# higher capacity.
