Hi everyone, I am trying to adjust one slide on our BH 3670 (computer slide). I have read the manual and think I am doing this correctly?? I am trying to adjust the outside of the slide down. Here is the issue--I have loosened the "hold tight bolts" (4). I have then loosened the adjuster bolts...

Hi Everyone,We have been parked for a few months volunteering and the roof has gotten some nasty stains from the trees. I have used only Dawn on the roof, but it is having no effect on the stains. I know anything with petroleum products are not good for it. Wondering if anyone has used Simple...

The paper should break down no matter what brand----the issue is the type of glue/binder used in the process. Usually rv paper has a bio-gradable/water based binder. You can check mfg web site to see what they use. al

I do not think I know more than you, but here is another place to check. On your overhang you have a piece of molding where the wall hits the underneath of the overhang--check that molding. While checking that molding the underside of that molding has some plastic inserts to cover some...

JohnD---You said your D seal stuck to the side of the slide---when mine did that I noticed that the slide was actually deteriorating and sticking to the slide. I would really check to see that it is ok. If it is, to put it back on---there are two screws that hold it in place, one at the top and...

I just replaced my "d" seals--not too bad of a job--bought them through HL--now wondering what to prevent them from deteriorating? I used "303" on them with not much results---I have heard and read about "rubber slide protectant"--just wondering if anyone using it? thanks al currently in crystal...

Hello, I just wanted to pass on the great customer service I received while chatting with Brandy in the parts department. She took an interest in my issue, politely helped me with part numbers, reviewed an older order to confirm everything and took the time to make me feel like a valued...

Hi everyone, I have "step ups" on my dually made with rubber where you put your foot. They are getting "chalky" and wondering what I can use to bring them back to the original black rubber. I have tried 303, but that did not work--looking for what others have used. Thanks al currently in Crystal...

We use a mail forwarding service---there are several to choose from. Ours started as a Good Sam forwarding company but then changed to "Home base forwarding'. They are out of Pensacola, FL, so we use that address as our permanent resident and get a break in taxes--they will also register your...

We have a 2010, so thinking our fireplace front is the same as yours. You can use a thin putty knife to GENTLY pry off the front. You should tape the knife to not damage the finish. You will find several small pin nails holding the front and will probably leave the nails in place and pull the...

You are getting plenty of advice to stay a little longer in the Black Hills and I agree. We workamped there last summer and spending all summer there was still a lot to see and do. The park we workamped was Fish n Fry, about 6 miles south of Deadwood. You mentioned that you had some kids with...

We use Am Home located in FL and several of our friends use a SD outfit. Most mail service will register vehicles. We have ours set up on a 'sort' so we only receive first class mail when we request it. The cost is about $10/mo and then shipping on our mail when we request it, about once/mo. al...

You have received some great information about propane so I will add one thing you may want to consider. Since you are just starting full time (and you will enjoy it) I suggest you check out on web 'rv-dreamers' it is a budgeting site that has actual data from full timers. al currently in...

We drove this route from Cresent to Grants Pass last spring. The southern end has a few sharp turns, but nothing you cannot handle. The road through the river gorge is narrow, but the scenery is great. Pay attention to the curves, drive a little slower and enjoy the trip. I would advise doing it...

We have used Nu-finish for about 5 years now including the decals---been very happy with italcurrently in Crystal River, FL

Ok---back to original plan, we are all set to volunteer for the show on Sunday 1/18,original time slots, no need to trade with someone. Sorry for the confusion. al

I also had rust issues with a brand new BH---most of it came from salt on the roads during delivery. I was VERY disappointed with the dealer that they did not clean it off----anyway, used a wire brush, then rust inhibitor, then rust preventative paint--a lot of work for a new unit. al

Hi volunteers for the super show, We are scheduled for Sunday---wondering if anyone wants to swap days?--the reason is we also volunteer for the Crystal river fish/wildlife and they are having a manatee festival on Sat/Sun. so if anyone interested in swapping days, let us know thanks al & Anne-Marie

Hi everyone, Looking to see if anyone has any experience with the wash N wax products. I have looked at a few products, Amour All and Rain X and their label says they are safe on gelcoat. Any input would be appreciated, also wondering how the decals would do if using a wash n wax products...

Deserts Edge (purple park) is a nice place and will allow under 55. al currently in crystal River, FL

After your border crossing I would watch the weather ----you will have quite a few hills on I 15 from Great Falls to Idaho Falls, after that going south should not be a major problem. I-15 through Salt Lake can be very rough. After Las Vegas, feel free to take a secondary road (93 south) to...

Thanks for the information, I was not clear enough on my original request---I want to remove the on/off lever--this is on the faucet, not the whole unit from underneath. I took the set screw out that is on the on/off handle and that usually??? frees up the handle, but not on this one??? That is...

hi everyone, We have 2010 BH, 3670 with a single handle faucet in the kitchen. It no longer swivels easily, so I thought I would take it apart and lube it. I removed the set screw that would normally hold a single handle, however the handle would not come loose----does anyone have the trick to...

Hi everyone, I have been thinking about stopping by and picking up a rifle (hunting season in FL)with case (hard shell airline type), but wondering where to put it in the rv?? Where do others store their rifle/cases? I do not need to know your "hiding places" just cannot figure out a good place...

I use a material called nu finish---it is actually a polymer and does a good job-- al currently in Crystal River, FL

You need to go. We workamped just south of Deadwood in a nice family owned park---Fish n Fry. It has everything you need and more. You can check out the web site. Also, you should check to see when the bike rally is--try to stay away from that week as it will be hard to find a place to stay. The...

Ours did a similar thing when we were in AZ for the winter. I called HL and they had the material in stock---just ask how long I needed. I measured the slide length and HL sent it out the next day. I did 3 tops of the slides, taking off the old, cleaning the tar like stuff off the slides...

We have a fifth wheel and level this way--first side to side ( we may need to put blocking under the tires to get side to side level). Then unhook from the truck and use the legs to get level end to end. We then put down the rear stabilizers just to "snug up" (they will not support the weight of...

Hi everyone, We have a few very small holes in our awning. They are too small to put awning tape on. I was thinking about putting a drop or two of super glue on them to stop them from spreading. Has anyone tried super glue on the awning---will it "eat through" the material? Is there something...

This is good advice----check what the mfg suggest for towing and payloads along with what others have said. My comment would be NOT to listen to a dealer---usually they will tell you that anything will tow it just to get the sale----do your own research and look at the actual spec/weights/etc. al

I have had the same issue with a Watts. You may try cleaning it?? I also heard from someone that if mounted too close to the water heater you will get some back pressure from there. Try mounting right at the CG water and see what happens. al currently in Gulfport, MS
