    Finally...TPMS for F-450 (or any DRW)

    We were very excited to order our 2022 Ford F-450 and while waiting 6 months, I did a lot of YouTube research. One thing that kept coming up was the lack of an integrated TPMS system for 6 tires on the truck. Surprisingly, it appears the 19.5” steel belted tires were incompatible with the...

    TMPS Readings

    On our last trip, the Bighorn tires were all around 110 PSI as we left home. Temps outside were around 90-95...so pretty hot. About an hour into our trip, the TPMS alarm goes off and one tires is at 125..other 3 were close to 120. Question...if tires start at 110...what is a safe increase in...

    Dish Network Rooftop Dish

    This Dish Network satellite receiver was on the house we purchased, but we have no use for it. Before I take it to the dump, I figured I'd ask if there was any interest in it. Free!! Located in Sisters Oregon.

    Bolts used to attach underbelly

    Going to be helping a buddy wires some reverse lights to the back of his Bighorn, which will require removing the bolts that hold up the underbelly. Now, I broke a few of mine when doing this on my Bighorn, even though I used an impact wrench. I am guessing a few of his will also break off...

    Propane leaking from passenger side regulator

    Here is my problem. I had a propane leak last Oct, and I replaced the regulator on the passenger side tank, as I could hear gas coming out of the vent. I thought I solved the problem...I didn't. Last weekend we were getting RV ready and I happen to be using passenger side tank (driver side...

    Replacing Flooring

    This summer we had one of our slide-out rollers break (yea..the steel roller just snapped) and that causes it to snag our linolium flooring and rip it all the way back (see image) We were able to take about the slide out apart (while book docking no less) and get the part to a local town and...

    Rebuilding Steps to Bedroom

    Has anyone rebuilt their steps to the bedroom? I had to "modify" mine slightly (with a saw) to scale the bottom step back some, to allow the Lippert Solid Step install to be completed. Now, Spring is here and I need to plan the new steps. If you have done this, I'd love to see some images...

    Replacing that darn CH751 shared key

    Finally got around to replacing that darn "CH751" lock on our front storage compartment. I have a considerable amount of $$$$ tied up in the stuff up there, so I figured spending $14.50 on a replacement lock was worth it. BTW....the site I purchased the lock from, says this CH751 key/lock is...

    Anyone use Impact Driver for Lug Nut on RV

    While camping a few weeks ago my neighbor had a flat tire and I walked over to see if I could help. He was using an electric (110v) impact driver to remove the lug nuts. I guess I've been living under a rock...it has never even crossed my mind to have a larger impact driver (than the...

    Schumacher "Instant Power" device

    We've had two of these "Instant Power" device for ~6-7 years. We keep one in the RV and it gets used all the time. The second one stays in my wife's car for that "just in case" factor. I was fortunate enough to have Schumacher loan me a new device so I could create a blog/video. If you...

    Added LED Lights to Back of Bighorn

    Winter camping is great, but for those of us still working full time jobs, that means leaving on Friday around 5pm and therefore we are always backing into a site in the pitch dark. So, I added 2 LED lights to the back of the Bighorn and it makes a HUGE difference. Check out the YouTube...

    Yea! Upgraded our "RVLOCK" - No code needed to lock now!!

    The one thing that bugged us about our after-market lock from RVLOCK was having to enter our code every time we wanted to lock the door rather than just push the lock button. UPDATE --> I was originally told by RVLOCK only a few versions required both boards to be replace, but RVLOCK contacted...
