RE: Who makes the shocks?

The MORryde shock absorbing equalizers will give you the same effect of neutralizing things like expansion joints and will soften hits from potholes and such. I don't know why they work but they really do and would be a simple bolt in for you.
Either way, it's worth doing as it stops the jarring action of hitting this stuff from coming through to the tow vehicle - it's really an amazing improvement.

Nice stuff. Redodo is known to be top notch.

RE: Charging batteries with a small generator

You will be very close on capacity with that gen.

RE: Who makes the shocks?

When I installed shocks on my last TT, I found Monroe had a line of trailer shocks. They worked well for me.

RE: Is replacing the furnace worth it?

No, new ones still suck power from your battery.

It's not going to have any effect being bent there. Enjoy your trip.

RE: Roof Opinions Please

Clean a spot. If the black lifts away then there's nothing wrong with it other than being dirty, which doesn't hurt it at all.

RE: Protection

I used one for 13 years on our last rv and it looked like new when I traded it in. We get light to moderate wind here but rarely anything damaging.
FWIW, I keep our new rig under a carport and the old cover actually kept the rv cleaner over the winter.

RE: Generac shutdown issues, help!

IMHO those fans aren't even close to enough to moving enough air. If you really want some kind of fan, get a 14+" electric pusher fan (the biggest that will fit) for a vehicle radiator.

RE: Generac shutdown issues, help!

Also have you weighed the trailer? Looks like a lot of weight on the hitch.
Roflmao! Just stop…
It’s not a RV so not subject to all the weird travel trailer “stuff” that virtually no one else cares about…ever, when actually using trailers.
Maybe we need the payload capacity of the tow vehicle before we can talk aboot his generator too?
For sure a dually would solve all his problems.. ;)

RE: Would You Caulk This Shower Tub?

No.
I had to take my entire tub and shower surround out because it had been installed wrong, resulting in a cracked tub. It looked exactly like yours and I can tell you the surround overlaps a flange around the tub by a good inch. On mine, there was absolutely no sign of any water having ever leaked around there.
There's no way any sealant would live long there anyway.
I would leave it alone.

And sometimes the tanks distort and fall out of the rig.

I suggest you go to a big RV show so you can look at lots of options all at once.

RE: May have towed too much weight

It sucks but you're going to have to do something different or you're going to be in for repeated and extremely expensive repairs.

RE: New RV Park, Idaho Falls, ID.

In fairness, they don't call themselves a resort - just a "park".
Fair enough ^^^^^
OTOH the one near me hasn't got squat and they call themselves a resort.
Maybe these places should look up the definition of the word!

RE: New RV Park, Idaho Falls, ID.

In fairness, they don't call themselves a resort - just a "park".
While we prefer woodsy state CG's, there's no denying these types of places are very popular wherever they open and there's a lot of people who prefer the wide open feeling. We have a new one in a small, semi-remote town (Sultan, Wa.) that gets $65+/night. Even though there's no real amenities or anything to do, it stays fairly full - enough so that they're expanding.
We need more capacity and I say if people like them (and they seem to), I for one am glad these places are springing up and gobbling up campers.

RE: Distance between the two RV?

I don't know of many private parks, if any, that don't pack seasonals in as tight as possible. A new trend is for them to make seasonals sign a waiver requiring them to not attach anything to the rig, have the rig ready to be moved when not occupied, and provide a log with dates the tenant plans to occupy giving them the permission to move the rig if they need the space/site, say for a weekend camper. It also releases them from any liability when/if they do move it. Expect this to become the norm. Don't like it, don't patronize.
Yep, that would be a hard NO from us too.

RE: UL Certified 12v USB Charging Receptacles?

No need for UL approval - these are very simple devices. I've installed a bunch of them over the years in all kinds of vehicles and RV's. Never had an issue.
Even the one Arctic Fox wired backwards that kept blowing a fuse was fine once I corrected the wiring.
