Designer 35RLTS and Jayco Talk...Thanks Frank!!

Ha! I found it...I'm not sure exactly what I found, but I know that it's not supposed to be dangling behind/inside the tire! I'm guessing it's brake related and that we probably shouldn't have driven 150 miles today. Praise God --His guardian angel assigned to us has to work over-time.
We're in Woodbine, MD if anyone wants to stop over and check it out before the RV repair dude gets here.

It's just a shock absorber! Looking into cost of replacement and possible replacement of all four...

On the a/c, I would pull the cover on the top. There is alot of water that settles in the back on the lower pan because of the slope. Eventually it evaporates, but doesn't have a good drain. (I did this on both though). I took a piece of metal underneath to protect the roof and drilled a hole on the left and right ride of the condenser on the back. If you look at the stamped pan you want the hole in the lower spots that don't bottom out on the roof. I don't know how that would bring the smell in if you're nice and tight, but it might be. Maybe just loosen and check out the gasket. If I can find photos of the drains I will post them.

On this bolt, check the bolts on your slide arms underneath. It may be one of the locking bolt. Also check your morryde setup and maybe the back side of it too. I would be most concerned with where that fits!!!

Well! We left Richmond today. After pulling in the recliner slide, I found a sheered off carriage bolt (I think that's what it's called) laying between the tires, on the board we used for leveling! 1 1/2" long and 5/16 diameter. I've looked and looked and can't see from where it came.

We hit some rough roads (95 was terrible) and the picture window valance came down on one side -- easily fixable.

And, last but not least, the living room air conditioner smells musty. We started another thread about it and someone suggested taking the hood off and suspected we'd find a tray filled with slimy gunk. Nada. Everything looks good. It IS a bit black around the edges. I've been cleaning the inside filter. What do you think?

Congrats Howard & Beth...

Arizona with the nice winters and Cougar, WA with the colder than %%%&^$% winters...

If we ever make it out that way leave the light on and a spot open for us...

Congrats on you new adventure, and you will love WA. OR also if and when you get to explore.

Best Wishes

Great news!! And hats off to you and anyone else who takes risks and open/starts a new business. I hope it is a great success for you. If I travel that way I will be sure to stop in.

And of course you know you are now very close to God's country! Alaska being the real place! :B

Nice article!! And, of course, your Designer is the best lookin' rig in the park!

Well folks ... many of you know my wife and I were planning on taking the plunge on buying a park. We finally did it. (Actually more than just an RV Park !!)

We bought the Lone Fir Resort in Cougar Washington, on the South side of Mount St Helen's National Monument. We live in our Designer full time now and have been loving it.

A local paper did an article on us this past week that I thought I would share with everyone ...

Has anyone repaired some holes in the walls of your Jayco Designer and how. I have 6 that are a dime size. It is a 2002 designer and factory has no walls or covering. Thanks

Interior or exterior holes? I'm assuming interior.

Still waiting to hear back from Bigfoot but with the 12" frame we have, that won't be the issue. They were only concerned about having room to get in there and work.

Yes, with the "alumaguard" the entire awning will be encased when rolled up.
