    Batteries

    its time to replace the cabin batteries in the motor home. I know 2 6 volt batteries is the way to go, but what's the best bang for the buck? This past weekend while hunting I'd wake up in the morning with the heater off because the batteries were dead. I carry a Honda Eu1000 to charge the...

    Overheated wiring

    I came home to find the GFCI in my garage popped. And it wouldn't reset. Started unplugging stuff and trying to figure out what was tripping it. Turns out it was the motor home. Looks like I fried my main power distribution panel.

    Shitters Full

    Having a hell of a time with my black tank. Every time I go to drain it I get a few gallons of waste to drain and then it stops. So I end up having to run a hose down the toilet and pump water through to break up the solids. I'm using the RV toilet paper. Last weekend I was camping at Sonoma...

    07 Chevy trail-blazer charge light

    I've spent the last few weeks reading threads on various forums and either my search skills suck or my problem seems to be just a little different then what I keep reading about. The wife has a 2007 Trailblazer with the 4.2, 120k and motor/accessories are all stock as far as I know. When the...

    Labor Day

    Anyone going to be out there this weekend? Our camping plans fell through, so we are thinking of camping at the in-laws spaces in Nature Trails. Figure since we will be right down the road I might haul the 4runner up.

    Cone washers suck

    Bachelor for the weekend, so i thought I'd finally get my front axle torn apart and repaired. Can't get the 4 cone washers loose in the hi-steer arms. I've had them sitting in penetrating oil for 3 days. Tried all the normal tricks, hit them with a acetylene torch to get them warm. Nothing...

    Having a 7.3 is fun...timing is great

    Coming down to the wire for 2 trips I'm supposed to take the tow rig on, 1 trip each weekend for the next 2 weekends. This weekends trip would be a bummer to miss, as it's my cousins graduation but if I did miss it not the end of the world. However the following weekend is already paid for and...

    RV sleeping for infants

    Trying to come up with a way to prevent our 1 year old from falling off the bed in the new camper. Last summer she was small enough we just used a laundry basket as a crib. This summer that's not going to work out. I told the wife we could just pile up pillows but she's ofcourse worried she'll...

    Campers and Super Hitch/Extensions

    The wife and I are upgrading our camper (which wont take much from the last one). I was telling Gavin today I don't know why but for some reason I'm scared to tow with a super-hitch extension. I saw Karl's KOH pictures, he was rocking what looked like an 11 foot camper, and towing a trailer...

    RTR Losi mini crawler

    I forgot I even had this, picked it up at the swap meet from who I believe was Super Samurai/Brian. I thought I'd get more use out of it but I simply don't use it, I would consider trading for an ELECTRIC go-fast of some sort, or throw some other offers out there who knows what I might be...

    RV roof sealant

    What do you guys with RV's use to seal the roof and seams? I've got an old camper, it's not a looker but the inside is fine and it gets the job done. We just had it at Longbeach and I noticed a couple small leaks, 1 is on a window joint the other is on the seam between the roof and side panel...

    Dodge Computer Issues

    My uncle and family are currently towing down to Glamis Dunes (Arizona), and my cousin sent me a text saying that the ECM in the truck is acting up. Its a 1999 24v Cummins truck with an auto. I haven't gotten much info about what it's doing specifically but he's a career auto-tech, so he's been...

    GM 6.0L Tunes

    Anyone using a custom tune on their 6.0L Chevy? I've got an 03 k2500HD that is pretty much bone stock, and I've waffled over getting a tune. I used to daily drive it to work which is one reason I never did it, but now its just my tow rig and weekend driver. I picked up a 8' 70's era camper...

    Snow Wheeling Questions

    Need to get a couple good snow runs in before out baby comes and I put on the bench for a few months. Other then copper creek or down around Evans (Coplay/Surprise Lake) where's a good spot to get up high into some good snow? I was thinking Greenwater, pretty sure FS 75 is still open to...

    Toyota 1" master cylinder

    Anyone know what the year/model is that you can find the bigger 1" bore master cylinder on? I know TG sells one but I'd like to source one local so I can have my Runner ready for Thanksgiving wheeling.

    trailer tires

    I know I've seen threads, but my search came up empty. I need to replace a couple of my trailer tires. One has a nasty bulge now, and two have been plugged multiple times. These are the original tires, so they are 2 going on 3 years old but haven't seen that many miles. Pretty disappointed...

    ID this trans/tcase

    A coworker sent me pictures of this set up his neighbor yanked out of his old military jeep he is restoring. And asked if I could help him ID the set up. Looking at the pictures and what little I know about the military era jeeps I believe the tcase is a Dana model 18 with an after market over...
