    2017 Super Duty definitely reaching for the stars!!

    I have a friend who did the same on a slightly larger fiver and I've never heard of any issues. I think im light enough that i could get away with it. There's currently around $9k worth of discounts including my x-plan available on the 16's so that's definitely the route i wanna go as long as my...

    2017 Super Duty definitely reaching for the stars!!

    Axles are already on bottom, have been ever since new. I am hoping some short blocks and longer u bolts will be ok, just looking for some experience/opinions.

    2017 Super Duty definitely reaching for the stars!!

    Doesnt matter anymore because my 09 is gone. Im just trying to see if i end up with a 2017 super duty what available options their are for lifting the sundance.

    2017 Super Duty definitely reaching for the stars!!

    I too remember reading something about a tad bit higher projected economy but I believe it was related to a revamp to the 6 speed tranny. Maybe some taller ratios or something like that i think it said. That's actually something else that worries me alittle. Im just thinking that theres starting...

    2017 Super Duty definitely reaching for the stars!!

    Its actually kind of an optical illusion i think because when i installed my timbrens in that truck i measured before and after and according to a two foot level inside on kitchen floor it was almost level before. Thats why im worried about the new superduty and being able to tow my fiver level...

    2017 Super Duty definitely reaching for the stars!!

    So i just sold my current TV because i wanted to upgrade to a crew cab and was all set to buy a used 16 F-350. Unfortunately about a week ago theysold the truck and I hadn't mine yet so i am in the market to find 16 "leftover" superduty or the dealer said he could order me exactly what i want...

    Ladder install on ElkRidge e292

    That pic was taken the day we brought it home and although it looks unlevel it is actually only high by about 2" according to a two foot level place on the floor just inside the door. My tires are actually wearing completely even there just tow maxers so i want them replaced before next years...

    Ladder install on ElkRidge e292

    I've looked into switching to the E rated tires and i to cant find a single one in any size that would work for my 15" sundance. I'm just planning on getting the mxxis next spring when my fiver comes out of storage.

    Grease the ball hitch?

    Matter of fact i do grease my tre's and ball joints, but have never and will never grease my ball hitches.. If someone wants to and have grease all over their clothes, truckbed, toolboxes, and pretty much anywhere else that it touches thats their business.

    Grease the ball hitch?

    The way i see it is if it makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside go ahead and grease it. I have pulled bumper pulls for years, thousands of miles and have never greased one and never will.

    Grease the ball hitch?

    Agreed.. Greasing the ball is only going to provide very negligible wear resistance and really all its going to to is get all over everything when you're not hitched up. I tow ball hitch trailers all the time, have for years and have never once noticed any undue wear that greasing would have saved.

    Any Ford 6.2 gassers out there

    Leasing works for me and my wife, we've leased our last three vehicles. Leasing for some doesn't work. Different strokes for differant folks, haha.

    Any Ford 6.2 gassers out there

    My 09 has the 5.4l in it now so I'm guessing the 6.2 will be a vast improvement over the 5.4l. I've got no problems now, just let the rpms spin.. The only thing thats holding me up is because my dealer will be running the lease through a "3rd party" ie his other company he's giving me a way...

    Any Ford 6.2 gassers out there

    Thats typically the case but my local dealer runs his own leasing company and they'll lease any vehicle they have. I've known him for years and he's willing to give me a great lease because he knows how well i keep my vehicles.

    Any Ford 6.2 gassers out there

    Im currently looking at leasing a new 16 leftover F350 from a local dealership and am looking for people's experience's towing there trailers/ fivers with the gas engine. My current fiver is a sundance XLT weighing in fully loaded at 9145lbs so I'm not spending 8k for a diesel to pull my camper...

    Tree sap on rubber roof

    While at home i have no choice but to park my fiver under pine trees as thats all that surrounds my house.. So far it hasn't done anything. I wouldn't worry about it.

    Underbed "puck" mount system

    my understanding is the b&w hitch comes apart and is to be removed in two pieces, the plate then the base and is very manageable by yourself.

    Underbed "puck" mount system

    Thanks for that info snoking, I didn't think the factory kit could be added after the fact.. i think I'm going with a standard reese custom install kit as its under $300 shipped to me. Not having rails in the bed is of no real significance to me. First I've got to make the deal ans see if there...

    Underbed "puck" mount system

    Correct the OEM system can't be added after the fact, the only other way to get the puck system is to buy the aftermarket reese underbed mount system which is essentially the same, but alot more $... I just dont think its worth the added expense the more i think about, yes it would be nice not...

    Underbed "puck" mount system

    Hitch height might be an issue. I didn't think the adapter would take up quite that much room, i figured about the same as the traditional rails would. My current hitch is almost on the lowest setting and as the truck I'm looking at is going to be a F350 i assume I'm gonna have to drop it one...

    Underbed "puck" mount system

    I think about the biggest pro to the puck system is the space it free's up in your bed. The having the railsin the bed have never really been an issue in the past. I think for the significant price differance unless the dealer is willing to install the oem puck system I'll just install the reese...

    Thats a great idea..I'll give it a try

    What are you using to level?

    I bought the same kit and honestly i think ive used it two times.. Its a cinch to use but the problem i ran into was upon packing up and leaving. On my sundance fiver the duals are too close together and when pulling off the ramps the front has a tendency to get stuck in between and requires...

    Bighorn NAME (Traveler)

    Re: Bighorn. NAME I for one am thrilled that this new model is coming out. I am probably the demographic that heartland is thinking of when they threw the idea of the traveler around. I will be in the market to upgrade in a few years and cannot spend 75-90k on a trailer that isn't used for full...

    Bypass valve question

    More than likely they are stuck from never being turned as they should move without much effort.. I would take some pliers or an adjustable wrench and try giving them a turn.. If the trailer spent its life above freezing temps they were likely never used..

    Antenna Jack question

    Ok, then the SAT jack in the UDC goes directly to LR tv. The cable from the antenna goes to booster,then into a splitter and then to bedroom tv and LR tv? Why is there only one jack at LR tv?
