    MORryde Pinbox

    Thanks for the encouraging words Mburtsvt. We hope to see the same results as you after working with the factory. Right now, I would have to say, "Save your money" but hopefully some adjustment(s) can be made to make it worth the cost. BTW, we were out-of-pocket quite a bit more than you, but we...

    Battery Access

    I just installed this nifty product by Flow Rite. Because our batteries are hermetically sealed in the factory enclosure box, I thought there MUST be a better way to top off my batteries without going through all the hassle of dissembling everything, filling, then re-assembling it all. Enter the...

    MORryde Pinbox

    We just installed a MorRyde pin box on our 5er and aren't getting quite the bang for our buck that we expected. We are now working with the factory. They have been very nice to deal with so far. I hope we can get it resolved. Also, the fiberglass fairing on the original pin box does not fit over...

    Question on washer

    Did you have the water valves mounted in the front, so you didn't have the issue that Jeff & Laurie just mentioned? That would be a good mod if possible.

    Question on washer

    Thanks. That sounds like the direction we'll take. I want to buy them where they will also install them. I presume Camping World does that.

    Question on washer

    Good advice, thanks! We've had our share of mice challenges at our cabin. Don't need them in the rolling home!

    Question on washer

    Thanks. Now all we have to do is decide on what make to purchase. We've heard good things about the Splendide Aristide models. Which one did you choose?

    Question on washer

    We are about to install a washer and dryer. The pan/drain sounds like a very good idea. Did the installer do it and did the drain require additional drilling, etc., or did they tap into the existing washer prep drain? Thanks!

    Thanks everyone for making us feel so welcome! We are looking forward to meeting you all and have already made arrangements to be at the Rodeo Rally. That should be fun. We're also hoping to convince a friend and his wife who have the same model Bighorn as ours to join the chapter. He was a...

    Pulling a heavy fiver

    We just purchased and pulled our 2016 Bighorn 3875FB from Oklahoma to Arizona with our 2015 Ram 3500HD SRW. No problems at all with power, but would like a little more braking capability occasionally. We are also a bit heavy in the front with on-board generator, so we will be adding air bags...

    Do I have enough truck?

    Thank you bkdance. As soon as we pick up our 5th wheel next week, I will go about following all the good suggestions posted here to see if we are in that category. If so, I guess we'll be selling a near new truck and shopping for a bigger one. I think I may have gotten the cart before the horse...

    Do I have enough truck?

    Hi MTPockets and thank you for your reply! You guys are great to take the time to respond to questions like mine that must seem pretty dumb. I looked at my driver door post for a maximum payload, but the only specs were front GAWR of 6,000 and rear GAWR of 7,000. It's interesting that my truck...

    Do I have enough truck?

    Thank you very much! There is a built-in generator on the fifth wheel and I do have an auxiliary 40 gal fuel tank in the truck bed, so I will have a little more weight. Do many people tow this size of rig with SRWs? I noticed most posters like yourself own DRWs. Thanks again!

    Do I have enough truck?

    I apologize if this has been covered elsewhere, but I couldn't find anything specific to my concern. I have a 2015 Ram 3500 diesel SRW. With 3:42 gears, the chart says I have a bit over 17k of towing capacity. We are purchasing a Bighorn 3875FB with stated gross of 16k. I've seen a lot of single...
