    FR3 30ft motorhome hitch

    Just picked up a 2014 Forest River FR3 motorhome. 30ft. It has a 5k rated hitch. I'm wanting to upgrade to a 10k hitch to tow my 24ft covered trailer but can't seem to locate the right hitch. Any links for the CORRECT hitch? Been looking for a couple days and can't find definitive answers..

    Changing the awning motor

    So the Youtube video says this is a 20 minute job. Don't start this until you have put a rag under the cover so a screw doesn't fall down into the folding mechanism :(. Going forward I pull on the wire lead to get some slack except the plug wire had no slack and when I pulled it just unplugged...

    Schwintek (Lippert) Slideout Motors

    I have one Schwintek slide that's always been slow or hesitant, and has been repaired more than once, and now has yet another bad motor. Does anyone know if the existing 300:1 motors can be replaced by the more powerful 500:1 motors, without a rewire, i.e., plug and play?

    Motorhome Storage Box 2.0

    We needed space for a few bikes and did not want them "outside", so I built a storage box that holds the bike and a few more things. Photos and more can be found here https://www.flickr.com/photos/cdrdwd/albums/72177720299189977/with/52095273515/

    9200 awning motor

    Im having some issues with my 9200 dometic motor…. A new one is more than 550$ and it coûd be worse. Does someone already find a good solution to fix that motor like buying another part to replace only the motor, not the gear?!? Thanks

    How I Installed a CatStrap on a 2019 Ford F-53 V10 Motorhome Chassis

    A CatStrap is a catalytic converter anti-theft device. While I found a lot of information on installing one on a car or truck, there was almost nothing available for a Ford F-53 gas motorhome so I decided to write up what I did. The installation turned out well and so far the catalytic...

    Motorhome leveling jacks

    I have a 2006 Sunseeker motorhome. I would like to install leveling jacks, but I don’t want to spend $2,000 to $3,000. I was told by my RV repair place that scissor jacks won’t work for that motorhome. Why? Thanks for any input!

    378 XL hydraulic pump motor.

    This started out as a REALLY long post about losing the bolts out of the hydraulic pump motor. After reading it, it seemed rather a bit much. So, here's the short version. While heading to Moab to wheel our new Toad, we stopped at a Cracker Barrel for the night. Went to extend the jacks and no...

    Where is the slide out motor?

    I have a 2017 23RB. My end goal is to figure out how to manually open or close the slide out. I think there is a place on the motor but for the life if me I can’t find the motor. The bottom has a covering - like foam board - I suspect it’s behind that somewhere but don’t know where.
