    Question for RDS fuel tank owners

    On a side note, here a cheap update that I’m very happy with. Buy some cheap LED strip lights and run it around the inside of the tool box lid. Here is a photo of mine, taken late at night with the LED lights on. It’s nice not having to use a flashlight to find something.

    Kayak & bike carrier

    Hey there Tx, no disrespect at all on that, I love the rear patios and the ability of the garage, but it comes at a cost of a smaller kitchen, limited options of a dinner table and seating options and not sold on the color options. If only I could add a third axle and 13ft garage to the back of...

    Kayak & bike carrier

    Yeah I know, really need a toy hauler, but neither me or the wife can agree to down grade from the Landmark to a toy hauler. I don’t like to take the Jeep unless I really need to as I’m well beyond the limits of the Law for length and have only pulled it a few times which was challenging. I...

    Rear stabilizing legs, where's the switch?

    The electric real cord is still in place, as the photo was taken with the cord out which gives the illusion that the real is no longer there. The stitch in place currently retracts the real. I do have the level up system, but it's only the 4 point system.

    Was looking under the rear of the 5th wheel (2012 Landmark Rushmore) and noticed that the rear stabilizing jacks at the rear of the trailer have an electric motor, however I can't find a switch. The wires from the motor spliced into two other wires behind the switch that operates the electic...

    Level-up Hydraulic Leveling System

    Take a look at these videos on Youtube. The first one is the basic operation of the level up system. (This is what I found when I purchased the RV with the level up system) Once you use the system a few times you become accustomed to it quickly and I honestly love mine. It's nice to disconnect...

    You could also look at the goose box from reese. I added on on my trailer as I needed more bed space and was tired of lifting in and out the firth wheel hitch. I have to say it was one of the best upgrades I have done to the trailer, and towing is now smoother...

    Hello, I just changed the stock Firestone Transforce tires on my 2014 Ram 3500 SRW megacab to the new Nitto, Terra Grapplers G2's, so far I'm impressed. There is a little more road noise over the stock tires but that was kind of expected as they have little more aggressive tread pattern. The...

    How are they activated, when I leveled the 5th wheel using the auto level process the rear stablizers did not drop down, are they activated through the menu options on the level up system?
