    2nd A/C in Cyclone garage question

    Re: 2nd A/C question No, your dealer is wrong. The second A/C would most likely be a non ducted unit. It would blow air straight into the garage. The ductwork would not be disturbed. Unless they are pricing you a ducted A/C to put in the garage which would require some pretty extensive work to...

    Bighorn ac question

    I dont want anyone to get the wrong idea about what i said. Maybe i said it wrong. The "tent in the vent" mod will increase the airflow to the ducted vents in your rig. Some people claim it helps alot, Some havent had great success with it. There have also been several threads that dealt with...

    2nd A/C in Cyclone garage question

    Re: 2nd A/C question timbuktu, I think I understand what you are asking but I am not sure. You are asking if the beds in the cyclone garage block off the main A/C vents when they are in the "up" (stored) position. Therefore stopping the main A/C from cooling the garage area effectively, which...

    Dex-cool coolant--issues?

    Your dealership is correct. Use Dex cool only. Hopefully the dealer flushed the system enough to get all the green stuff out. If it were mine I would run it a few weeks and flush it again. Then have the new dex cool tested a few weeks later. Just to make sure all the wrong stuff gets out of the...

    Bighorn ac question

    Exactly my point, ONE AC is not going to be enough if they are camping in hot and or humid conditions. Install the 2nd AC you will be comfortable. You can turn it off when you dont need it. Leave the tent thing out of the vent so that you can open the air dump on the main ac when it may be...

    I need tire and airbag suggestions

    245 tires do look small on a truck that big dont they? Increasing the tire size does get you a higher weight rating on the tires, but fuel mileage and all that other stuff goes down. Just for reference The Michelin 285 tires we run on our truck are rated at 3750#. Airbags are one of the best...

    2001 F-250 w/7.3L diesel suffering from "global warming"

    If the plug has never been used on your truck, It should be tied up behind the front bumper on the drivers side or between the radiator and grill on the drivers side somewhere. If it has been used before someone may have moved it to make it easier to get to. You can trace it. It will be an...

    Second AC Unit Install??

    All of them are the same size and fit the same size hole (14X14). We went with a 13500 BTU Carrier Air-V Low profile Model Because i didnt want it to be so tall sitting on the front of the rig. Lots of people go with a full sized unit on the front instead of a low profile unit, there is no...

    Second AC Unit Install??

    The 2nd AC mounts in place of the bedroom vent in the master bedroom. It is not hard to do and you need no AC knowledge. It simply sits over the 14X14 inch hole that you remove the vent from and the inside bracket goes up against the ceiling. the 2 pieces are clamped together using 4 bolts...

    Firestone Ride-Rite Air Bags on 2005 Chev. Silverado 2500 HD

    Very simple install, you wont have any trouble with it. The compressor kit is well worth the money, get it. As for the earlier comment about not being able to lift the truck by the frame, ignore it. That is actually part of the install procedure if you read the instructions for the chevrolet...

    This was one of our deciding factors when purchasing our BH 3410. I wanted to be able to get to everything in the rig with the slides in. You never know what you may need to get to, or if you may need to stay somewhere that you cant let the slides out for an overnight during a trip. As for...

    Do your Pretrip checklists and during trip look overs....PLEASE

    I agree 100% with the pretrip inspections. I just cant believe a FORD dealership let you drive away with a cracked Wheel. Thats a major safety issue whether they THINK it will be ok or not.

    Furnace How to...?

    Hate to hear that you had a problem on your maiden voyage. I dont know anything about the remote, sounds like you may have a wireless remote thermostat? Emergency heat? Unless Suburban has some new system, I have never seen a furnace with Emergency Heat in an RV. That sounds like your A/C unit...
