I love those junction boxes, it makes trouble shooting wiring a lot easier.
For trailers with 4 electric brakes the wire gauge size is sometimes just adequate.
Ours ran one wire from the 7 way to the LF brake, on to the LR brake, crossed over to the RR then ended at the RF.
I ran a larger gauge wire for each brake from the post in the junction box to each brake.
Now if I want to test a particular brake I can pull its' wire for testing and I know each brake is getting a good voltage. - MartyMooseExplorer"Dumped vegetable oil into the tanks to try to loosen up the dump valves."
First I've seen this.....work? Mine is sticky which makes me nervous....ha
Thanks - FlashmanExplorer III moved my rear scissors jacks forward on the frame a couple of feet - to give me better clearance in the rear when going through dips or over bumps.
- 1320FastbackExplorerWas last weekend but fixed a propane leak where road debris cracked a fitting under the trailer, rotated the tires, lubed the bearings and adjusted the brakes. We just got back from a 5,200 mile trip and are leaving again soon for about another 1,000 round trip.

- bullmastiffloveExplorerReplaced section of rotted floor; 8 years after having to do it the first time (soon after buying it used). Removed and resealed small useless hatch doors near the back of the TH that caused the water damage. Also replaced seal on door itself as it was also leaking water.
Next is replacing the bath tub and surround.
