Has anyone seen the video yet from Big Truck Big RV on his series on Lippert and especially the one on what Lippert/Curt (?) maybe offering soon regarding a coil spring and shock pinbox? Yes it will aid in the jarring compared to a std one, but for my money, I'd still rather have a air bag just...

Question came up on my FB page where a poster has a '18 BC 3560SS and when they put the bed slide out from the huge wall slide, it comes right back in. Any suggestions? We have the same unit and never had that happen.

Just wondering if $8200.00 sounds about right for this type of roof redo? 41' 5er. 3 day job at their shop or affiliate.

BigBob, See your post on selling your BC and wondering if your getting out of RVing or going to something else? We have same coach and love it even tho we looked at some super class C's and a cple toy haulers while at the Hershey show last month. NYSUPstater

Had a pick up in Nichols NY at the Lounsberry exit off 17/86 west of Binghamton this afternoon. Upon getting back onto 17/86, I see a whole bunch of emergency vehicles on shoulder of the road lil ways past the on ramp. Once on top of things, saw what looked like a SUV of some type and a TT both...

On a typing roll this morning. So my question is: would you tow a 43' 5er total GVW 16,600, advertised pin of 2880, UVW 14,900 w/ a 2024 GM 1 ton SRW, 4x4, CC, Short box, 6.6 gas? My thinking is it's probly within the tow ratings albeit the max side of them BUT it would seem like the tail...

The other day I had a new GMC HD passing me that had the outer "C" LED daytime lights. Granted 1 "C" was reverse, but a "C" nonetheless. Anyways as I was looking at it all the while it was passing me got me to laughing as it sorta resembled the "Chester" character for Cheetos smiling.

In the HL section at this years show, there wasn't any BC's there. BH, BH Traveller and Cyclones and others, but no BC's. Shoot wasn't even Wilkens running the HL section. Hope someone from HL sees this and can answer as to why. I did speak to a tech from Wilkens and when I asked why they don't...

The stock sink in our '18 BC bathroom, the drain plug(?) is barely open. I looked underneath but really don't see much in way of adjustment to have to it sit higher (more open) in base of sink. Any suggestions?

While sitting by campfire the other night, looked back towards the RV and saw what I thought was a "bulge or bubble" above the right side basement door on our '18 BC 3560SS. It's near the top right corner. Pressing on it, it's as hard as a rock, yet it still remains. Don't see where or how any...

GM has had their new multi tailgate out for what a couple years now? Funny thing is, I would have to say that prit near 99.9% of them I've seen have been on GMC's !! Would be hard pressed for me to recall the last time I saw one on a Chevy. Others see the same thing?

Glancing thru BC's model line, I see that the 3560SS is shown, but doesn't show the bed slide within the slide. Typo? We have a '18 3560SS and love it and along that line it's too bad that HL couldn't offer same kind of slide within a slide in BR area with overall length of around 35'-36' so as...

Have other owners of these brands noticed the same thing in the course of your travels either while camping or everyday travels? I think I can count on 1 hand how many of these I've seen in total so far this year and sadly it's ONLY been a couple other BC's! By and large the most popular ones...

Any ideas as to where I can get one? NAPA has it on their web site, but it's been discontinued. To be fair, I did look online and saw one for like 35 bucks and NAPA's was under 20.

I installed a new water pump and while on most recent outing, left the fresh tank drain open just in case water still went into it. Sure enough it did, but not as bad. So at this point, my options are to turn the OE Anderson valve w/o pressure on it a few times OR just simply replace the OE...

BIL just got his new truck Fri. Beautiful "Cherry" red w/ 2 tone leather. Is a 3500 SRW, CC, 4x4, SRW, 6.6 gas and 3.73 gears fully loaded. Took a look at the data label and liked how GM put down the max weight of railers on it. Said it could tow a 18,000 gooseneck/5er and 16,000 TT. Combo of...

Am I able to post a listing w/ pics for a buddy selling a B&W hitch? If so, under which heading?

Went to raise the left side of coach so I could grease things w/ the 2 left legs (6pt level up) and display said it was outta level so it wouldn't lower the legs any. Truck was attached. So I said, "let's do the right side then". Right legs went down w/ no problem EXCEPT after I got the wheels...

This NOT meant to bash anyone or start a feud about this or that, BUT just observations I've seen lately in regards to vehicles and RV's. Have seen quite the gamut w/ some spot on in regards to RV's and it's tow vehicle. Some RV's are nose high w/ tow vehicle level. Some RV's are nose low w/...

Not sure w/ 100% accuracy where the problem lies, so to play it safe, am getting a new water pump and replacing the orig Anderson plastic 4-way valve w/ anew Anderson brass 3 way valve. Anyways, Amazon has it for 75 bucks and a cple other online RV outlets are in the same general area. Checked...

Well I'm not 100% positive, but seems like GO by my house here in CNY has sold a bunch of units as of late. Just hope that based on all the reports we've seen about CW & GO that the owners don't have problems

Question. I asked about new tires for our Big Country and later thought of another question. yes, I've used the 2 hyd cyl on one side to lift the coach to grease things or to remove a wheel w/o a problem. Truck was attached to coach at same time. Now can I raise the whole coach w/o the truck...

Was watching the NASCAR race yesterday and for some reason, got to thinking that I'll probly need to replace the tires on our '18 BC (made in '17). No big trips planned for this year. They are always covered while here at the house, but still going on 7 years old and look like new. So went to...

So I bought a lil 4 banger car to go to work.......a whopping 2 miles. Truck now sits idles 99.9% of time which is ok by me given the 2 miles (LOL). Just before it got "parked", I topped it off w/ fuel and treated it as well. Bought a 5amp Battery Tender, so the batts are ok in that aspect...

Last year sometime I bought the said product for door armrest. Thing works GREAT! However, the sticky pad that the warmest sticks to has lost it's oomph and now the arrest doesn't want to stick to it. Can find a whole new kit from Amazon, but nowhere can I find just to get a replacement pad...

Was reading on another RV forum where a poster had an issue w/ their Schwinteck. A reply came back about another style of gear driven device called: Vroom Slide System. Fella posted a YouTube where he had a GD unit w/ a Schwinteck and he had probs w/ it and found the Vroom device whom the...

A couple years ago, I removed all the factory roof to sidewall sealant cuz parts were already "flaking/coming off" which IMO should not have been the case being it was 2-3 years old at the time. Used a product from RV dealer I've used since '05 and think it was Dicor roof/sidewall sealant or...

Haven't a clue, but the remote for the Furrion radio in our 5er is AWOL. Do I contact HL w/ last 6 of VIN for a replacement or Lippert/Furrion directly?

What's the best way to "add" more hardware to the smaller of the 2 kitchen sinks in our 2560SS? Seems that whatever HL used isn't holding the sink tight to under the counter and caulking isn't keeping a tight seal either.

Have done a great deal of back and forth on things, and we've decided to sell our '17 F350 DRW (45,000 miles) and '18 Big Country 3560SS. Due to me having 2 left thumbs, not sure how to post pics, but if anyone is interested, PM me your e-mail and will go from there. Truck is white 4dr, 4x4, XLT...

Question. The trim that goes from front of 5th and curves/wraps under the bedroom area downward to ground (on either side/end of front compartment), why does it separate/come away from the 5er itself? What do you do to keep it in place. Does it shrink up thus causing it to come away from the...

I was adding some peel-n-stick tile behind the stove and was using a foldable plastic cutting board under things when using a utility knife. Well DA me didn't see it at first, but the knife went right thru the plastic board and now I have a few scratches-small gouges in countertop. Is there any...

Question came to mind to ponder even tho the RV is in hibernation, but what/where do I get the torqure specs on the U-bolts for the springs so I can check when she comes home in April? I know if I recall right, the wet bolts are 50 Ft Lbs.

Last year our DD and SIL mentioned to us that they could smell a musty like odor in bathroom. Well, I agree there is some kind of distinct odor, but cannot see any areas that are wet either under the sink, walls, ceiling, etc. When I had my issues of winterizing it last year, didn't see any...

What do others do to lesson the adapter that screws into CG pipe fittings? Yesterday I had 2 that got stuck and only way I got them out was w/ a screw driver and hammer. Do not recall this ever happening before, but really don't want to go thru that again. Soap up the threads 1st?

Well as fate would have it, need to get new tires for Casper. Went to tire shop last w/e for rotation only to have them tell me they can't/won't due to low tread (3/32-4/32). Foooooey. Was going to get new ones in Oct, but with upcoming long trip planned, figure to play it safe and get new ones...

I noticed while standing by RR corner of RV yesterday and DW was opening the slides up a "clicking" sound and was puzzled as to what it was. So looked under the slide as it was going out and saw the square connecting rod/tube hitting the 90* elbow for the fresh tank overflow on right side of...

Just want to see if it's legit or not, but got a e-mail from or spammer look alike HLOC asking for me to update info on file etc. Thought I'd ask here 1st to see if it's on the up-n-up.

Just installed them this past w/e by myself. Wasn't a too bad of a job overall, but did run into a hiccup. Ours replaced the Lippert 4 step alum fold out ones and getting to the nuts was a bit of a pain, but "got 'em". Tho I had a floor jack and wood underneath them, things didn't go exactly as...

Has anyone heard of. have or use a Hughes Surge protector? Heard about it on one of those pop ,up thingy's on Facebook. Seems to have some good features. Very happy w/ my PI unit, but just wondering what others have heard about the Hughes version.
