1.I use the wash from Reliable Products.
NuFinish works well if used on a new vehicle.
2.I have 2 Honda 2000's that I keep in Camping World bags. If you get these bags, put plywood in the bottom for support. I have a cap on the bed, and the bags have wheels, so I can roll them right to the tailgate with ease. I just looked on CW website and they appear to be no longer available, probably because of the lack of support mentioned above.
3. Do you use TPMS? I have TST 507 with the standard sensors and metal valve stems. I needed to add a repeater for reliable connection.
4. How do you level from side to side? I use wood blocks with a 45 degree angle cut on each end. A pair of 3/4" plywood blocks can be used for fine adjustment.
5. Any refer mods to aide in cooling? If the fridge is in the slide, there should be a fan as natural air flow is poor. Check that any baffles and insulation is done per the installation manual.
6. What brand / model sewer hoses do you use?
I put my cheap, brown Walmart hoses in the bumper, they have lasted for years. I pin the caps in place. Before long term storage, I remove the hoses and wash out the bumper and hoses, then reassemble only after everything is completely dry.
7. I plan on installing 3 MaxxAir II vents (black).
What are your thoughts on these vent covers? Black equals heat, I used white.
8. Do you go on roof for maintenance, inspection, washing, etc? I use a 12' step ladder at home so that the roof corners are not taking any load. Two pieces of plywood with rope handles would allow the load to be spread, just remove any splinters and sharp corners.
9. Any other items/tips you can share for a soon to be ORV owner? I think that any trailer is a work in progress, you are simply bringing home a large box of raw materials.
