I am not sure where you had the work completed, we had the same issue and took it directly to HL in IN. I sent a previous post on how professionally we were treated, but will repeat the highlights here. Warmly greeted by the receptionist, Kristin. Our tech Eric had a bay ready with power for the...

Glad you got your issue corrected. The check valve may be getting weak, you can pick one up at any rv store, you will then have one on hand or replace your current one. It is a simple process, takes about 20 min.--look behind your inlet and you will see a connection that needs to be take off and...

Congratulations on getting a fifth wheel---you will see a major difference from a TT. What type of truck do you have--make sure you have enough truck to safely pull your new rig? What type of bed do you have in your truck? If it is a short bed , then you will probably need some type of slider...

For those who are thinking about putting sofa in the back--does this block your lp sensor? and any issue with that.? al currently in Kenai, Ak

Consider looking at roof mounted on your tow vehicle. We have Yakima, a little spendy, but we have never had an issue and we full time (4 years). We see an advantage in that you will always have the rack with you to go off with your tow vehicle to do some biking. REI carries this brand. al...

Silk flex caulking is great---and yes if you check the tube on all caulk it does have an expiration date. al currently in Kenai, Ak

I had a leak on my bedroom slide and it was difficult to find, however with alot of water spraying and looking I did trace it. Water would run off the slide on the side, hit the metal flange on the bottom of the slide, then follow it into the unit. A small dab of caulk before it traveled into...

Not sure of your route plans, but last year we traveled on I 40 through OK---very, very rough. If you make it to VT--consider staying in Bennington, great campground, good hiking , and typical NE town atmosphere--(we are originally from ME) al currently in Kenai, AK

Re: Recomendations Wanted I am not sure what you mean when you say you need internet service on the road. If you are talking literally while traveling, you have recieved some great advice. If you mean once you park in an rv park--almost all will have wifi service which is free or you can go to...

Hi everyone, We have a BH 3670 and considering getting a small generator (2000). We usually go to sites with power, and the few times we do not this size will run what we need for a few days. Here are my questions to those who have a small generator: Where do you store it? If in the front RV...

I am sorry you are having issues with your new investment. I have had issues with dealers, but I can only praise HL corp. for their great customer service, from receptionist/admin, to a VP and all in betweeen. Hopefully, the suggestion from Dan will work out for you. After you get this all...

This looks like your drain tube for the refer. Yes, they will deteriorate over time. They go from the refer drain in the refer to the outside of your coach, usually run through your access panel. You can purchase new "tubing" at any Rv supply store. Now, putting it back in may be a challenge...

Re: Water Pressure Regulator,is it old school I have a 263A fron RVFILTERSTORE---it has been great. Yes, flow and pressure are two different things--you can get good flow and protect your rv from high pressure. You will also get good customer service from rvfilterstore. al currently in Kenai, Ak

We have a BH 3670 with center point suspension. It measures 12" 8". I would measure yours, probably from top of air conditioner to ground and then you will know your exact height. I agree with dewwood, if you use a roll up door you will need at least a foot for the door to roll. Another option...

We had equaflex on our BH--you need to keep them greased and check your u-bolts. We never had an issue with ours. I did get a good deal to upgrade to center point (made by trail air) and did install it---it took some learning curve to get the right pressure for each side, but then it has...

We also turn off the water, but not the water heater??? al currently in Kenai, AK

Question about using the 2K generator-----how did you hook it up to the rv---are you using the existing power cord with some type of connection to go from 50amp to the 20 amp that a 2K has? Since we usually camp at rv parks, we have not had an issue with power, however we do occasionally camp...

Not sure of your exact destination, but if near Pensacola, try the Pensacola RV Park----family run, small, very clean---easy access---big sites. Also, not sure of your size, but be aware that in most state parks you may not fit. al currently in Kenai, AK

You will enjoy the lifestyle. You are getting good advice. We have our "home base' as FL, they are another state that treats you real well when it comes to taxes, registration, voting, etc. We have a mail service from Pensacola that sends mail whenever we ask (usually one/mo). Here are a few...

You will be happy with your new BH. They are great and you will also be very happy with the customer service you will get with the HL group. We call ME home (lived there 30+ years) and are now full time RVers--great life style. Let us know if there is anything we can help you with. al currently...

We purchased a small booster that helps your rig "see" the tower. We mounted on the ladder pointed toward the tower and it worked great. We only have used it in one location, but have it with us for future use. al currently in Kenai, AK

Great way to check out things--thanks--looks quite narrow and twisty, and a concern about tree overhang and height---some added questions when we chat with the owners of the club. al currently in Kenai, AK

You can lubricate right at the cable connection, near the valve handle. When you get time, drop part of the underbelly and lubricate the actual valve assembly. It will have a small piston, lubricate and you should be all set. al currently in Kenai, Ak

We are still looking at this opportunity. However now some concern about the road getting there. anyone have any information about Rt 9 going West from Saratoga, CA?? It looks like a narrow, twisty road and not sure if RV friendly?? thanks al currently in Kenai, AK

You are correct, your trailer will pull easier, safer if close to level WHEN HOOKED UP. The tape measure will get you close, but hook up trailer and then check level. al currently in Kenai, Ak

Hey Back2nature (Laurie), If you are thinking of AK, here is something you might want to consider. Try workamping up in AK. It will really help on expenses. We have been doing it off/on for 4 years now and really enjoy it. You could travel for 3 weeks to make the trip, workamp for 2 months or...

I agree with all the great advice and will add something to consider. When you have the time, drop part of the belly and lubricate the valves with some type of lubricant, then lube the cables, you may??? just have a sticky valve that is not closing properly. al currently in Kenai, AK

As I mentioned we are still here in AK, so if you are coming through Kenai, stop at the Diamond M RV park. Enjoy your trip and if we can do anything from our end, please let us know. al currently in Kenai, AK

I noticed on your post that you are considering AK or CN for the winter. All the advice from others is great and I think you can prepare your unit for the weather, but here is something to consider. We came to AK last summer, with the intention of experiencing the winter, we are from ME so the...

So, for those of you who did this (which looks great)--how was it getting into the rv? Do they come apart or did you take out the rear window??? How did the ouch come out? thanks, al curretly in Kenai, AK

We are full timers and my wife uses the oven quite often. Yes, it will get warm, sometimes very warm on top of the stove--we run the vent fan to minimize the heat. al currently in Kenai, AK

Others have said to put blocking under your tires for side to side and that is the way we do ours---it is easier on you and your truck to pull onto the blocking rather than backing on. You ask then about your jacks---having them within a 1/2" or so and you should not have any issue---you may see...

Just a few thing to consider: did you have your winterization in the correct position so your pump would not draw from your fresh water tank? Did you somehow get air in your lines? If you can get at the lines on eachend of the pump you shouold be able to see if any fittings have ice around them...
