Jack & Janet--Thanks for that. There is a source for axles sold by the inch somewhere I've read about. Why did Dexter say that a new axle wouldn't fit? Was it the conversion or maybe the length available?

Been searching for a leaf spring conversion and found none. Did find a 1982 model hi lo with a spring axle though. Hope to find the guy that had leaf spring conversion that I read about. Didn't save it to favorites.

Thanks everyone for your thoughts. Think I need to type faster because I have been cut off for the third time. Not sure why it says i'm logged in and then when I post a reply everything is lost and it asks me to log in again.

Anchorwood--My reply disappeared for some reason. Think I timed out replying to your response. Is there a time limit on this forum as to how long you can search or reply to something or is it my service provider here?

Pretty quiet on this forum so i'm requesting more information to keep you guys/gals busy--ha I notice that many Hi Lo owners have either repaired their axles or have replaced their axles with heavier duty axles. Is this repair pretty common or is this something that happened only on earlier...

Hi davefrommaui---Sounds like a good size mattress. I use a king here at home. But I need a 25' or shorter rig so I can get to where i'm wanting to camp and so it fits the space I have for one in the barn. Thanks for the idea though.

rvranger--Thanks for reading my thread. Probably lots of nice Hi lo's down your way. Pretty slim pickings up this way. Looks like just a waiting game till the right one comes along. Been reading about the solar applications on here. Looks like the thing to do. Probably read further on this...

jjeff68--Appreciate your reply here. I need to find one that is 25' or less. Hope you sell it soon. Thanks again

Piperjim--i'm getting cut off trying to respond to your reply. Anyway, sounds like you really went out of the way to find your Hi Lo. I should have you do my looking--ha. Different people have different opinions about what excellent condition means. Makes it hard to decide weather or not to go...

I could use a little organization myself. Might find all the duplicate tools that I've purchased over the past few years. Did a 4 or 5 state search around Colorado and found no classic Hi Lo trailers. Wrong time to look for one of these I guess. I search this site each day also. Most trailers...

Piperjim--thanks for that.

Sam--the wife bought me a barn so I had to fill it up. I have thought about the Holiday Ramblers--pre 1999 or so and the Arctic Fox trailers which are 4 season campers. The latter are real spendy. I do know the wearabouts of a 1997 Holiday Ramble but the hot water pump leaks and I know of...

WayneB--Sorry about that. Thought i was contacting Wolfster.

Wolfster--What are you asking for the Hi-Lo?

Sam--I have 3 gashogs here. Probably why I don't get out much. We have a barn here for cover and this prolongs the life of our past rv's. My past experiances with travel trailers and such leads me to wanting to acquire one locally. We usually have a lot of snow so trailers are mostly sitting...

Campthewestcoast--for now i'm hoping to find something with in a few hundred miles of home. I have purchased and shipped 1 car, 1 jeep, 1 trike and flew to Virginia and picked up a van. Shipping is getting expensive even though I always use USHIP. Last night I nailed down some 2000 plus models...

campthewestcoast--thanks much. Good information here. I didn't know about the torsion axles--good to know. There are a lot of campgrounds that only allow up to 25' rigs. Hell of it is there is also the car that adds another 15 foot. Good to know about the fiberglass caps. Sounds more durable...

Hi Sam. I am wondering if over the years some Hi Lo's had better construction or did they skimp on later years. Also, i'm wondering if the roof material changed and if so, are some years more prone to leakage. A trailer with less upkeep would be desireable if there is such a thing. I have an...

Thanks Piperjim. I'll do that right now.

I see your eagle/flag and Andrews, NC address. Were you at Andrews Air Force Base? I did 2 month at Lejune way back when before going to Nam. I look for things to buy out of season hoping to get a better deal. Tax time coming up soon and people need money. I'll explore the different sites...

Thanks Treeclimer

I am shrinking with age. Maybe one will "fit" someday--ha. I even hit my head on the AC in our current motorhome. I've seen some Hi Lo's with 77" ceilings--just not around here.

HI--New to this forum. Am kicking around the idea of purchasing a Hi Low trailer. I did a search for "Best HI LO" and nothing came up so am starting a new thread. I've had several pop ups, travel trailers and motorhomes. Did a lot of time in tents also. You might say that a guy my age would...
