U.S. Navy 1965 - 1969 Booted in DAGO grew up near Saigon. Thanks to all of my brothers who wore the dress, walked the walk and to some who gave it all, allowed this country to stay free so we are able to come and go as we please, think and say what we please. We are a brotherhood that can never...

My wife and I decided to take our Hi-Lo up to our farm in central Texas. We thought it would be a nice change from sleeping in the barn (as we haven't built a house yet). I brought the "beast" home from the storage lot on the 4th of Nov., worked all week getting it ready to go on our first trip...

Hey Wrascal, You've probably heard that old saying, somebody was here before me. The previous owner removed the entire roof, ceiling and everything else, but didn't put everything back, mainly that little track. So I guess it's off to bed bath and beyond or somesuch to find something she likes...

I need suggestions. My wife wants to have a curtain between the bathroom and the bedroom in our 3389b. What I need to know is how in the heck I would hand it so it could open and close. I'm half way afraid to try to screw anything into the ceiling to hang it on because of the thinness of the...

I guess I've been lucky when towing the "Beast" (3389b). I have a 2012 F-150 super crew fwd. V8 with 6 spd. auto trans and a fiberglass bed cover. Our Hi-Lo weighs in at around 7000 pounds in travel mode. I make sure all the tires are inflated to 50 lbs. When we get out on the highway I run up...

This is sort of on this subject. I don't know if anyone has or even remembers the old style Coleman stoves that you had to pump up. I had one just laying around (I hate to throw anything away when it still works, just because it's just old) so I was fooling around with it, cleaning it up and...

Does anyone know of a trailer wrecking yard anywhere? We have pick a part for cars down here, but after scouring the internet I haven't seen or heard of a trailer parts yard. I don't mind using used parts because a lot of times, wjth a little spit and polish, they can almost look like new. It...

Hello Don, There is a member of this forum who goes by 69Hi-Lo. If he can't help you I don't know where to tell you to turn to. There are a lot of great people on this forum who know a lot about Hi-Lo trailers, just ask a question, be patient and an answer will soon pop up. I can't imagine...

Couldn't you use a long drill bit and go all the way through the wood block and use aluminum angle on the top and bottom with bolts going all the way through? Seems like that would be a lot stronger. Bear :D

Sounds like they took the custom out of custom fit which they advertise. Does it look like it will hold up for any length of time? Bear :D

Well y'all can talk and argue about switches all you want. My 3389b has one switch by the entry door. You push the top of the rocker switch and the top goes up. You push the bottom of the switch and pull the wire loop sticking out next to it and the top goes down, nothing else. I wish it would...

Hey Wrascal, A Dutchman in Trailer talk is kind of like Lincoln or Cadillac in car talk. If that's all their asking, I'd jump on that like stink on stuff. Can't really say what I mean here, might offend the ladies and get me in trouble with the moderator. Sounds like a good deal though. Bear :D

Thanks a lot Wrascal, by the way how did you get that nickname. Bear :D

The thermostat knob on the refrigerator in my trailer won't go all the way to off. Will this cause the unit to run all the time? It will turn until the number 2 shows and won't go any further. I don't want to break anything. Do I need to pull the refrigerator out and do something to the bottom...

Does anyone know where I can get a set of hinges for the jackknife couch in my 3389b. Both sides are broken, and I don't think they can be repaired. Thanks, Bear :D

Raul, Is there a web site for state and federal campgrounds? How do you find out where they are? Thanks, Bear :D

Hey 69Hi-Lo, wasn't it kinda' hard gettin' your Hi-Lo down in those places? Bear :D

Has anyone ever been traveling to somewhere and gotten real tired and although you're not to where you were going just found the nearest campground and spent the night? I would just like to know what kind of experience it was and if you thought it was a good idea afterward. Bear :confused:

Looks like you skeered it good. It just kind of dried up and fizzled out. GOOD JOB. Next time we get an LKE or KATRINA, you'll be the first one we call to skeer it away. Me, I'm headin' for the hill country and my farm. Have a good one Bear :D

Good luck with your search. We live just outside of Houston and when we decided to look for a Hi-Lo we found that they are few and far between in Texas. One piece of advice though, look in north and central Texas for one because if it's near the coast it's probably been to the beach somewhere...

Hey guys, Hello MansizIN, I know the covers you are talking about at Camping World. They are made by ADCO, and have now added Sunbrella to their lineup. They also told me that to get a Sunbrella cover it has to be custom made. Cost $775.00 plus tax and shipping. ADCO only makes two covers to...

Hey Wrascal, I don't know which road service you have. We have AAA with an RV rider and yes they will come out and change trailer tires. Bear :D

My son and I just got through packing the wheel bearings and adjusting the brakes. Not something I'd want to do very often. Now we have six wheel brakes instead of one wheel brakes. The old rusty screws that held the wheel fairings on were a double dipped you know what to get out. We used up a...

I call our 33b, "The Beast", cause it's so big. I have to reserve pull thru spaces because I can't back it up very well yet. The F-150 is just the truck. Bear :D

HELP!!! Does anyone know of a place that sells trailer covers for Hi-Lo. The only covers that I have found that fit my trailer have come in at around $900.00. (Sunbrella) I can't afford that. It seems that the longest available trailer cover that anyone stocks goes up to 28ft. I need one that...
