    Spare Tire

    ...how are you mounting your wheel/ tire to your rig? I bought a spare tire but don’t have a rim nor a mount. I don’t want to use the receiver hitch becuase I use it for bike racks so I need a way to attach it above the rear bumper. The cheap ones available online I heard won’t last too long. Thanks

    Resolved Dash A/C not blowing cold air

    While on our trip in '21, we had the compressor go out up in Boardman Oregon (about as far from home as possible). The compressor locked up and shredded the belt. The engine overheated and alarms went off as the engine shut down about 500 ft from the entry to the campground. I had an extra...

    Tip Advise against using locking hitch pins for RV toads (towed vehicles)

    Here’s another reason not to use locking pins which I learned today. Went to take the bike rack off of the hitch of our toad so I could take it through a car wash and found it severely corroded. It was a keyed locking pin and after inserting the key, it just would not turn. I sprayed some WD-40...

    Bike Rack Between MH and Toad

    Thank you all, my friend who asked me the question looked over all the suggestions. I did try to influence his decision, but believe your input helped him to make one. I appreciate all the thoughtful answers to this question. I even got ideas from it, but we are not sure the RV is for long in...

    St Louis advisory

    Traveling in a 25 ft class C was unable to visit the St Louis Arch. NO rv campers or even your large truck can park. Too large for parking garage, no street parking and if you have a bike rack ( was advised by police officer) not to leave unattended. Many streets closed but never saw any work...

    Flat tow TOAD and motorcycle question

    Yes I have done lots of research. I believe the vehicles I listed including the Nissan Frontier standard transmission 2wd is flat towable. My car choice would be a standard transmission Corolla or a standard Yaris. I like the idea of having the hitch mounted motorcycle rack but then I need the...

    Bicycle Storage

    We use a dual hitch for the ebike rack (We have a steep driveway and scrape otherwise). The only draw back we have is the bikes are heavier than normal bikes, thus the on and off is more involved. Use to be lifting 70 lbs to eye level was no big deal...but now I must make strange noises to...

    Bike Rack Between MH and Toad

    I just switched to keeping the bikes behind the coach as opposed to having them on the toad. I used a Draw Tite double receiver with the Kuat NV 2.0 rack on top and a Blue Ox Ascent tow bar in the bottom receiver. I was worried about clearance and ordered an extension, but found I didn't need...

    Travel Trailers With Mounted Generator Question

    Greetings Tex I have done what you are considering and made a bonded plug to run my inverter genny with my EMS. I have also fab’d a complete new bumper to mount my genny and a bike rack. It’s on the rear left corner just as you are thinking about. I can run it while mounted to the trailer as...

    Question Put a bike rack on the back of transend trailer. Is it ok

    The only two problems you can run into (assuming a capable hitch) are exceeding the gross weight rating of the trailer, and reducing the tongue weight too much by placing weight behind the axle(s). If its a heavy two axle trailer it probably wont be an issue. If the second is an issue it will...

    Alert WARNING: Using a bike cover while on a bike rack while driving can KILL someone

    On our first trip around the country, we had Thule 2 bike rack on the back of the Honda CRV. I bought one of the more expensive covers (over $100) and it looked good. Until our first stop in a big city. We drove the toad to the local DunkinDonuts for coffee. For some reason I had to step behind...

    Rear hitch on Sanibel

    The weight limits (pulling and vertical load) should be on the hitch (and in the brochuer) if it is a factory installed item. Regardless of the capacity, when you load the rear of a 5th wheel you are unloading the weight on the pin box hitch. So if you are planning to tow something with tongue...

    All those things that seemed important at the time, or that I have been hanging on to because they were useful, or there was an emotional attachment - they are on the block. Im enjoying ridding myself if excess possessions, many of which connote work by their very existence (welding tanks, flail...

    Motorcyle Carrier and hitch weight

    Bommo, I used one on my 93 Dutchmen class A with no problems after I strengthened the receiver with a stiffener that kept the bike and rack from rocking side to side. I also used straps from each end of the carrier to the motorhome frame.

    Buying an older Coleman pop up

    Good morning, The reason the price might be so high is they spent cash on the new AC. According to NADA, the Used Retail price is $1,425. NADA has not method to add things like condition or how new a particular item is. The selling price is close to 350% higher than used retail. Remember...
