    We love Manchester Maine, its the home of Orvis sporting goods if you're a fisherman. I also second Old Forge, NY we go two or three times a year but stay in our friends cabin. If you're planning on going into the adirondacks stay at the KoA in Lake Placid its a wonderful area and tons to do/see.

    Testing antenna power supply

    So i pulled off the power supply wall plate and think i found the problem, the tv2 antenna jack has broken solder joints on the board. A check with my DMM shows only tv1 was getting 12v. I'm going to order a replacement and see how that goes.

    Testing antenna power supply

    Hey everyone, looking for some troubleshooting advice here. I just swapped out my batwing for the king jack replacement head. Had no trouble other than the red light on the antenna wont come on. The red light on the tv wallplate in bedroom does however. I can deduce from other post here that...

    Black tank chemical treatment necessary?

    We use the pure power blue liquid. I dump some down toilet before it gets filled and then after i flush tank before departure i will add some with a few gallons of water. Knock on wood my tank sensors have always worked. I also dump alittle down the sink drain to deoderize the grey tank.

    What did you do to your camper today?

    I already tryed and nothing came in. The mountains around the town were i live form kinda a bowl and its tough to even pick up radio stations, then my house is at the foot of one and that makes it impossible to get any signals, i cant even get satellite for tv.��

    What did you do to your camper today?

    Hopefully gonna get a chance this weekend to dewinterize and try it out, i just reused old hose and mount, seemed sturdy enough for me. As for the king jack guess I'll have to wait to see intil our first trip as where we live theres no over air stations close enough to pick up out here in rural PA.

    Lifting Fiver off ground Help

    I think thats exactly how I'll do it, i have 4 HD 6ton jack stands and bottle jacks. I wanted to do the equflex equalizer's at the same time but they are shorter than the solid equilizers that came stock. I've looked at all brands of equilizers and none are tall enough.

    Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac

    We use those on our work trucks and they are ok IMHO. I would look into other brands before spending the money on those. We use them pretty hard and only average about 20-25k miles on them at the very most. They are to aggressive for a strict towing rig but if you need the lugs for other things...

    Glue from inside slide seal being transfered to wiper seals and then onto exterior slide wall

    My Sundance has had same problem since i bought it 3yrs ago, i still clean it off once In a while. Just make sure to put some wax back on after you clean it off. I used mineral spirits and it will remove theglue and any protective wax thats been applied.

    2015 gmc 2500hd

    Finally got to try out the new dmax. Pulled the sundance home from storage. Wow what a difference! While there was no doubt i was yanking around 10k lbs it actually had plenty of throttle left unlike the gasser did. I'm afraid I've gotten bitten by the diesel bug, lol. I cant wait to get the ez...

    Roof Vent Covers

    Not sure what tabs you're talking about but i also recommend the maxx air cover. I did have to attach the additional hardwar though I didn't machine bolt on the brackets i just used stainless steel self drilling screws to attach the brackets to vent frame.

    Heartland 39500 Junk

    So is it my understanding that the frame looked good when you purchased it and it has rusted that bad since you purchased it? If not that means the frame and undercarriage were rusty when you bought it, i understand that it shouldn't be rusting that fast but its also something you should've seen...

    Lifting Fiver off ground Help

    I am thinking I'll try four bottle jacks and lift slowly until the entire trailer is off the ground enough to do the work while setting up cribbing along the way so if a jack fails it cant slam down to far. I will check/repack bearings at the same time. I'm just nervous about twisting something.

    Igloo roto-molded cooler at Costco

    I have a few Yeti's in differant sizes of tundra and a hopper and have looked at the other manufacturers but never was impressed enough to save the extra $$. Yeti coolers have spawned a slew of clones at much cheaper prices in the last few years, yet my buddy who is a yeti dealer says he sells...

    Measels on our Aluminum Rims

    Trailer wheels and tires.com. Before i payed anyone to refinish them id buy new ones. Trailer wheels are fairly reasonably priced. My buddy owns a trucking company and pays about $50 a wheel to have them professionally buffed, then a year later again, then again, you see the pattern right...

    Need quick advice: safe to drive with only 7 of 8 lug nuts on to get to repair?

    Imo, Id get a reputable auto mechanic to do the job, they might even be able to chase the threads with the proper die and not even have to replace it. If not i wouldn't have any reservations about driving to a shop only 14 miles away.

    Opinions on going from 15" ST tires to 16" LT

    The bridgestone or firestones I'm looking at have great reviews and are more than adequate for the job. Michelins are definitely a good tire but for the huge price difference I probably wont go with them, thanks for the suggestions anyway👍.

    Opinions on going from 15" ST tires to 16" LT

    So I'm in the market for new tires to replace my blowmax's. I'm debating wether or not to just replace them with the same spec'd maxxis or im leaning more towards upgrading to 16"rims with Lt225/75r16 bridgestone duravis tires. They have a slightly higher load rating yet basically the same size...
