Cummins2014, that's great to hear everything was in such good shape. What kind of fiver and mileage?

2008 Montana 3400RL , have had it since new . It was like three years old, when I changed out the nylon bushings to the MorRyde wet bolt kit . . At the time hearing the horror stories about these nylon bushings, and as I was doing it I kept seeing these nylon bushing coming out looking like new, and thought why am I bothering doing this ,but I had the kit, so I went ahead with it.

I only had a few thousand miles on it at that point. Now I never kept track with my previous truck this new one keeps track of the towing miles, averaging the years and mileage, and going off of that I am right around 50K on the fifth wheel after nearly 12 years , average just a little over 4K per year, not a lot.

This coming year ,its Alaska for the summer , thats probably going to be around 10K when finished. Bearings are packed this spring, and it only been 600 miles since, and no plans this winter for Arizona staying home . Had enough traveling this year . So tires are three years old, bearings packed , new shear springs on the suspension, good to go. Actually the fifth wheel for its age is in pretty good shape. Had to replace a few graphics, and hydraulic hoses.
