    Mattress upgrade in a Sierra 379FLOK

    We purchased a 2018 Sierra 379FLOK 5th wheel and would like to upgrade the King mattress. However the bottom third of the mattress folds up. (Not sure why) Has anyone replaced with a memory foam/Tempur-Pedic mattress?

    OTG Upgrade

    Since we just got our new Cougar, this stuff is all pretty new to me, particularly the solar charging thing. I have tried (and failed) making some inquiries to find the “recipe” to maximize the package as it exits. I am thinking lithium batteries, and more solar power, however I know there is...

    Sprinter 3500 chassis upgrades

    I had the heavy duty versions of the SumoSprings installed on our 2021 Navion and they made the driving tolerable. Fox shocks have been on backorder for months so not an option. I did learn that SuperSprings sells overload springs for the new Sprinter 3500 chassis. They are the SSA11 that sell...

    Upgrade shower head

    Recently bought a 1990 Guailridge Park model in a campground and want to replace the shower head and arm. The arm passes through a one inch thick chrome collar which seems to be glued to the fiberglass shower, any way can't remove it to actually see the pipe that the arm is screwed into. I'm...

    Lug nut issues ... add to upgrade list

    Was changing a wheel out due to a nail (actually a wheel stud with blunt end!) penetrating one of my tires on a recent trip and noticed when done I could "wiggle" most the lug nuts a little by hand after torquing them which seemed really strange. Never looked into lug nuts before and found they...

    Forester 3011 Shower Upgrade?

    Has anyone upgraded the wimpy shower head and control knobs? We have two issues with the OEM shower setup. The head barely releases water, even with the flow stop open and after attempting to open the head end, and the hot water knob works in a reverse direction from the standard. I drew...

    My battery upgrade to BB gamechangers

    Just put in my new batteries. I like all the amphours (270ea x 3 = 810Ah) but not sure about the form factor and a few details such as when they are flat on a surface, it is almost impossible to get to the negative terminal bolts and terminal covers. If I were to do it again, I would mount them...

    Time to upgrade

    My wife is hounding me about finding a new TT/5th with a bunk house for the kids since my current TT has only a king bed. I have a 2016 Rockwood Signature Ultralight. The floor started deteriorating year one and has gotten worse over the years. I’m like a ballerina trying to navigate from my...

    Solar panel upgrade

    My ‘19 Navion has two 100w solar panels. We’re half way through a 3 month road trip out west. We generally dry camp for two days and FHU the third. When dry camping the battery voltage drops to around 12 overnight from a daytime high of 14.4. I understand that dropping below 12 wears on the...
