Gutter Spouts with Extensions

+1. This is a great solution that we use also. the other obvious advantage is if they do get damaged (by trees, washing, etc, etc) you just find another clothes pin.

Does anyone use the JR Products 655-FLEX-PW-A Flexible Extended RV Rain Gutter Spouts? What do you think of those?

I have these as well. They work good to get water away from the trailer. I do seem to think that removal of a screw is required and also the correct type of caulking for that application.........at least on my rig.............if I recall correctly. They are flexible to the extent that they would bend if you were to back your rig into a branch, or whatever, without breaking.

What type of caulk to you suggest that I use?

When you're washing your RV with a car wash brush, go easy around the extensions. I've knocked off more than one. It's something that you remember only after breaking a few of them off....

I use the ones that DutchmenSport linked. They've been on for almost 7 years without a problem. I guess they direct the water away from the sides. But it's hard to tell since it never seems to rain around here.

I guess "flexible" depends on the force applied. :)

I have had them on my camper for one season so far with no problems. They work as they are supposed to. They really aren't "flexible" though. I was expecting something rubbery, but they are really just like any other spout.

These. You can pick them up at almost any RV dealership - parts store.
