    Shower drain

    Our shower drains slow, has anyone found a good way to clean out the trap? I took the sink trap apart and cleaned it, but the shower is trap is glued and I don't want to go cutting into it. Don't need the troubles that come with that. Thanks

    Leaf springs

    I have been dealing with Mike at Lippert and he never said anything about frame issues with the upgrade to 8k springs. Just that if I did Lippert only replaces like with like and the total cost would come out of my pocket. I know that there are a few people on here that have upgraded to 8k...

    Leaf springs

    I wish I would have upgraded to the 8k springs and been done with it. I had to spend $400 to replace the the old ones with the new springs Lippert sent me and they don't look much better than the old ones.

    2009 3670RL actual weights, not sales weights

    I have a 2009 3670RL Just weighed it. It is 12,580 on the axles, pin weight is 2920lb that is total of 15500 lbs for the coach. if your truck weighs 8500lb and you are close to my weights then you will have a GCVW of 24000lbs.

    Dual Pane Windows? Who's got them?

    We ordered them on our coach as well and would not do without. I think they do cut down on noise as well. And we have been in very cold weather (-2 to 15) to very warm weather and have not had a problem with condensation as well. On our old coach we only had single pane and had to clean...

    Maximum pin weight

    The coach has a gross weight rating, my BH is 16,000. I know you do not want to exceed that as well you do not want to exceed the 14,000. But never gave the pin rating much thought, that is a very good question. You would think it would have to be 16000 lbs, my hitch in tv is rated for 16000lbs...

    Leaf springs

    Leaf spring Bump Stop

    cool, now that is how a shock is supposed to be mounted. Maybe you should send that idea to Lippert, cause they seem to be a little confused.

    Center Point Suspension System- Shocks or No Shocks

    I had an older 5th wheel that needed to have the axles flipped to be able to tow with the newer trucks. The shop that did the work said I would lose because of the angle that they would end up at. My shocks were bent at the lower mount see pic. If anyone thinks these shocks were working I have...

    I have tried to be very careful with the loading of my axles. In fact I weighed it and I have 12,480 lbs on the axles. That is with about 10-15 gallons of fresh water.

    Bighorn Spring Thing

    rvskipper, HL does make a good product for the price, I have no complaints with them. We ordered our unit from the factory. If I had it to do all over again I would upgraded to 8k springs and axles at the least. If you could afford it then I would have the Mor-RYDE IS installed. If you wanted to...

    Lippert springs strike again

    The M-R IS is a very nice upgrade but not everyone can afford it. IMO I should not have to spend that much money just to get my BH to go down the road safely, after I spent as much as I did on the unit in the 1st place. I chose to go with THE CP because I wanted the ride to be smoother, I did...

    All I can say is.... WOW what a ride:cool:. I love the CP, drove about 250 miles and I can not believe the differance. I just can't believe I waited so long.

    Lippert springs strike again

    I just had Henderson install the CP system on my 3670RL yesterday. They took those sorry excuse for shocks that were all bent on the lower end and were rubbing against my tires. They are looking for a new set of springs for me since the new set Lippert sent out are headed for the same shape as...

    IS installation on LM Augusta

    I would not call it ignorante, the roads out there are horrible and you as well as the rest of us spent alot of money on these units. Its alot of money for these suspension upgrades but I think it will save more money in the long run. I myself am putting the CP system on our BH.

    Leaf springs

    It sure is funny that Lipperts excuse is that everyone has overloaded their springs and its not their product that is the problem. The thing that burns me is when I emailed HL custmers service was there response: I would recommend weighing the unit when you have it loaded for a trip to verify...

    Leaf springs

    We just came up I-5 out of So. CA, that stretch of road is horrible. It was hard to drive 55. In fact when I got to WA springs looked a little flatter then when I left. That is were I think the flaw is the springs they are installing can't handle the roads we are driving. Hoping the CP take some...

    Leaf springs

    Thats kind of funny when i talked to Mike at Lippert warranty and asked him if i could put 4k springs on 7k axles. This i what he said: 8K axles would require a complete axle upgrade. You would not be able to replace just the springs. The tube, u-bolts, and tie-plates would all have to be...
