I am pulling a 30 Ft. Travel Trailer and I use the Center Line hitch. I love the hitch it works great but it is very noisy when turning. So I was wondering if anyone has ever put grease on the Sway bars cradles? I know that doing this will take away some of the friction witch is what makes this...

Thats what I am thinking, can you remember what highway you used to go from campground to campground pulling the trailer?

We are planning a trip up the east coast and would like to drive the BRP , Is it legal to pull a T/T on the Parkway? and I would like to hear from those who have done the BRP while camping. Can you do it, was it hard to enjoy the views having the trailer , finding places to park in the pullouts etc.

Ok, that sounds encouraging, Thank you for the help, I will reply later with the results.

I have not yet pulled the Hot Water Heater to investigate, But I am hoping to get some idea as to what is wrong. My HWH is throwing the breaker, and when I flip the breaker back on, I hear a buzzing noise and it immediately throws the breaker back off. On my last trip we had to run it on...

The Norcold N611RT Refrigerator in my 2011 North Country is not cooling, And I am asking for help to get it fixed. We came home about 3 weeks ago from a very long trip driving over some very rough roads, I dont know if that has anything to do with the problem or not. But after being home for...

Well, we have completed The grand Canyon, another amazing place, traveled to the Sequoia and King N. P. in California. I was mystified at the size of the Sequoias, but the floor of Kings Canyon was a special place with the snow melt in full swing right now the water falls are roaring, we had a...

The antenna is on a tripod outside the camper, run coax from ant. to the "cable" port on the outside of camper , on the inside, I ran a coax from the cable box on the wall to the power injector that came with the antenna and then the power injector is connected to the tv. also I have the A/C...

I have recently purchased the King Omnigo antenna ( it is mounted on a tripod outside on the ground ) to improve on the amount of tv channels that I receive. But after following the instructions ( which where very vague ) And trying all of the options that I could think of, I cant get it to...

Living here in Florida we don't have the need for a lot of heat, Not that it doesn't get cold here, because it does, Just not as often as other parts of the country. After doing research on line and reading what you guys said, I feel that the small ceramic heaters are not as safe as I would...

I have been shopping for a portable electoric heater for our RV , so far I have looked at the Broan and the " Brown Box" Both are 1500 Watts, but nether had good reviews, If anyone on here can give some advise it would help. Thanks

I just recently replaced the 15 inch wheels with new 16 inch wheels on our 2011, 29 ft. North Country T/T, I want to recheck the torque after a few miles, So question is what foot pounds is appropriate ?

After you mintioned the Big Buddy heater I looked on line at them and I definitely see one in my future, In fact , this may be just whan I am looking for.

We are going to visit Yellowstone in April, so I really don't know how cold it will get, We are hoping to have full hook-up for most of the time, but iam sure that there will be a night or two where we will be off grid. I do have 2, 2000 watts generators that can be run in tandem , but won't be...

I am looking for opinions on what is the best way to heat the RV (T/T) when we are camping off grid. How long will the battery and a 30 lbs. LP tank last when using the on board Furness ? We haven't camped off grid in the winter before so I am trying to get prepared. Any opinions would greatly...

Re: Finding campsites without making rseverations So iam going to make reservations, and that brings another question. I know everyone is different but I would like to hear How many miles or how many hours do you drive per day on your driving days.

Re: Finding campsites without making rseverations So iam getting the feeling that I can feel fairly safe making reservations 2 or 3 days out except for the major campgrounds, But I understand that nothing is 100% .

Okay, We have done some research and think we are leaning to Thomas Payne Heritage Tri fold sofa and the Thomas Payne Heritage pushback recliners. These seem to be the most popular for RV furniture. And we are considering to install them ourselves. I put alot of trust on the replies that have...

We want to keep a sofa, because we need the fold-out bed when the grandkids are with us, we just want a real mattress instead of an air mattress. and my wife likes to lay on the sofa when we watch tv, and the sofa will be setting on the slide, the two recliners will be straight across from the...

My wife and I are considering replacing the sofa and replacing our swivel rockers with recliners, The sofa we have is the one that came in the camper when we bought it new. But it has a air mattress and we want to get away from the air mattress, And I am one month away from retirement so we will...

Ok, After reading your comments here maybe all I will do is remove the calking around the vents , edges and TV antenna and recalk with DICOR. The rest of the roof looks surprisingly good, Thanks guys or your help

You nailed it. ( probably looked at my profile ) but yes a 2011 Heartland North Country 29RK, The roof doesn't look bad just some cracks in the calking around vents / TV Antenna etc.. I just want be cautious not to let it get in bad shape.

Yes Iam going to do some calking work first and then a roll on primer then roof coating. I plan on calking/ recalking and paint the primer around vints and edges with a brush and roll the rest of the roof. I just want to know that I am using the best material.

I have been reading the blogs on here about roofs, and I am convinced to calk / coat the roof on my TT myself this time, this will be the first time that I have done this myself, it all sounds like common sense. But after looking at some of the products available, I found that some of the roof...

This is the same guy that poured the slabs for the two garages a few years back, so I was a return customer, and he also worked me in between bigger jobs. Yes he did give me a good price.
