    Suspension Bushings

    1) Did not have room to have the truck hooked up to the coach.....Started with the front jacks down. 2) My front jacks are electric. 3) No problem getting the tires off the ground....I only had them about a 1/2" off the concrete. All of my lifting was done on the frame......jack stands...

    Suspension Bushings

    Yes I did replace the EZ-FLEX bushings and I did one side at a time. Probably over kill on the support, but I wanted to make sure it was safe and did not want to put all the weight of the coach on just one or two points. Besides, doing one side at a time I stayed out of the sun in the driveway :)

    Suspension Bushings

    There have been many posts regarding the bushings on the suspensions of our coaches. Some time back I had made the decision to replace the bushings on our BC with the Neverfail bushings.......One knee replacement and a four level cervical fusion later, I finally got around to doing it. Using...

    flat bed truck/gooseneck question

    My hauler bed has a 1/2" plate that is about 4 foot square built into the underside of the bed.....rails where just bolted through the bed plate and the re-inforcing plate. I would agree that taking it to a good welding shop or hitch installer to have it looked at for solutions would be the...

    update one year later

    I'm sure there is a reason......but......I don't understand the logic of not being able to drop it off as opposed to going all the way back to Houston to have it picked up. Sorry to hear of your problems.....Hopefully they will all get worked out to your satisfaction....Good Luck!

    Amazing RV Loans

    You are probably correct in the market they are trying to reach......IMHO.....if you have to make this kind of loan to purchase a $86K fifth wheel.....You should probably be on Craigs List looking for a used pop up until you are financially sound enough to consider a larger RV.....Seems people...

    Viair 450P. WOW!

    I agree that the Viair systems are the way to go. My system is based around the 480 and a 5 gallon air tank. Great system for supplying the horns, air bags and filling tires as needed. System is very quiet and very fast. Mine is all mounted in a tool box that is mounted to the bed just...

    Amazing RV Loans

    I was totally shocked when I read an add in the Camping World Late Summer catalog. In the center of the catalog they had a page advertising their Summer RV Clearance. In the add they had: 1) "towable travel trailers from $299/month....based on 10% down @ 6.99% APR for 180 months" 2)...

    Class A Non-commercial License Required in California

    You do test with your own rig to get the Texas Class A. I agree that Law Enforcement Officers are not stopping vehicles to check for proper operators classification. My Ram and BC combination fall below the 26,000 lb. threshold.....If I had a another model of BC, some BH and any Landmark....I...

    Class A Non-commercial License Required in California

    I started checking into Texas laws regarding a fifth wheel when I learned that I had to change my insurance class with my new bed. It was amazing how much wrong information I received......Worst came from two local RV Dealerships that said "there is not a Heartland product that would require...

    Rear View Camera to see 5th wheel hitch....

    There where photos attached in this link . This system has worked well with both my original box and the new hauler bed. I am planning on adding a backup camera in the bumper because the bed drops down for the last 18 inches and which makes knowing where the bumper is very difficult. When I...

    Rear View Camera to see 5th wheel hitch....

    Detailed review of Truck/RV GPS units including Garmin DEZL and Rand McNally TND 510, 520, 710, 720

    I have always used Garmin, including the Dezl 760 and had very good experiences with them. The Dezl is a great product but is really geared to the trucking industry. Sometime in the next few weeks, Garmin will be introducing a new 760 GPS for RV use that is based off the Dezl........Looks like...
