    Laundry chute

    Just figured out how to do this for next season. I'm going to cut out an opening under the side of the bed to slide laundry baskets underneath. We never store anything under the bed anyway. Slide the baskets out when you put clothes in and there out of the way till we get home

    I was at the local dealer recently and saw brand new units with the same water damaged areas on the small slide outs. Must be a common problem when building the units

    wardrobe Slide out leaking

    My 28BRS leaked too from new. I had to reseal all the caulked edges and underneith as well. I also took out all the screws and replaced them with stainless ones and put sealant in each hole. no leaks since. Ive seen others at the dealers with the same area leaking.

    Axle problem?????

    I have a 2011 28BRS. It also has bad tire wear on the insides but also overall wear for only 2 years old and maybe 2500 miles on them. I think the problem is also because of 1-- the cheap offshore bias ply tires and 2-- the spread on the wide trax axles. I believe they make the trailer alot...

    Tongue storage box.

    Checkerplate box looks great. Not sure if i have that much room. I need something 18-19 inches wide and 36-42 long. I may go with a rubbermaid tote and secure the lid on the ends with tie down straps

    Tongue storage box.

    I will have just enough room. Already temporially tried it with an older box. As far as protecting it the box has a lid with locking latches.

    Tongue storage box.

    Has anyone seen or ever thought of putting a storage box behind the propane tanks? I was thinking of moving the tanks ahead and buying a rubbermaid tough tote. Fastening it to the frame and isolating the battery to one side of it and have the other end sealed off for storage. I know it willl...

    Slide Leaks Rain Water into Trailer

    I have the exact same leak on our 2011 28BRS. Same bottom corner. Just working on resealing and eternabond taping the bottom corners. I think thats where the problem is. Nothing worse than a leak. Always in the back of your mind when it rains. Had to trade our 2006 Funfinder in on this one...

    Who makes the power tongue and stablaizer jacks on 2012 24FBS?

    I think Lippert components makes them. I have them on my 2011 28BRS. The front and rear are on seperate rocker switches for up and down. Both sides do go down together and once both legs contact the ground they apply pressure. But they are still only stablizers not levelers. They also have a...

    Winter Cover

    Do you tie it down with just the straps or with something else ? Just scared its gonna rub on the gel coat. Also do you put styrafoam around antennas or gutter spouts ? My size at camping world was 419 and free shipping. Haven't looked in Canada for it yet.

    Stabilizer Jacks on NorthTrail 28BRS

    I have the same trailer and they are very low to the ground. I have shaved the dirt a couple times when backing into some campsites. Have you ever thought about flipping the axles to underneath the springs. That would give you more clearance. I am very careful when I go into and out of parking lots.

    securing bikes on pull-out bike rack

    I lean the bikes on the upright post and stager them. I wrap a bungee cord around the frames to the upright post. And 1 tie down strap on each end of the bike to the hitch pin holes on the rack. Works great.

    Rooky Just bought a New 2009 31RED

    I use a Equalizer E4 WD hitch. It works great. No sway ever even in strong crosswinds. Easy setup and simple to hitch and unhitch. I highly recommend it. You won't be disappointed. They have their own website.

    28brs tv

    You need to take speaker A or B off the DVD player and hook it into the TVs Audio IN. You will have to cut and splice the dvd speaker wire to RCA cables. Then when the kids are sleeping throw a movie in hit Speaker A or B whichever you wired it to and presto. Quiet TV sound .
