Inside Tire Wear..... Please Help!
Hi all, quick question for those who know more than I do! We have a Salem Cruise Light 26 footer (dual axel), have taken it out approx. 5 times, put less than 1000 miles total on the trailer. Upon pulling it out for the season, I noticed that all 4 tires are wearing significantly on the insides. All axles show idenitical wear. Due to our tow vehicle, we are very aware of weight, so I know overloading is a non issue. I check my tires before every trip, before and after to insure proper inflation. Our WD hitch was set from the dealer, and both the trailer and vehicle ride level when towing. No suspension componets show any noticeable wear. Any ideas? Doing a little research, some have said that the axles where put on upside down from the factory, I have no idea how to check this. Anyone have any ideas before it goes to the dealer?? Thanks!1.7KViews0likes8CommentsElectric Tongue Jack Problem....
Just purchased a brand new 2014 Salem Cruise Lite. We are currently out on its maiden voyage. Set and leveled the trailer, placed level-links on all surfaces. Woke up @ 3am to the tongue lower than what I set. Is this normal, or do I have an issue? It isn't extreme, but it is noticeable by all, level confirms what we are all feeling. Thanks guys!928Views0likes3CommentsNeed Help! Going Out Tommrow, Need Answers!
Hi all, This is our second trip in our Cruise Lite 195BH, just hooked up the RV and noticed some things I need help with! First, the TT is leaning ever-so-slightly to the right when we are on level ground. I put air in all tires (one was 10psi low, the other was 25psi low). Checked leafs, shakles, frame, nothing.... The only thing I can think of is the kitchen counter, stove, water heater, sink, shower, cooking supplies, and closet are on that side? Short of cooking supplies, the RV is compeletly unloaded. We use a Blue Ox Weight Distribution hitch. Second, I noticed that both of our wheel wells have abrasions that have lead to holes (can stick my finger through one or two of them). They are on both the left and right wells. Any ideas on a quick fix? Great Foam? They are on the leading and tailing edge of the wheel wells.... Any ideas what this could be? Rocks? No clue, please help! Thanks all! Perry PS- Just tuned the travel vehicle, all pressures correctly set, etc...1.6KViews0likes4CommentsWater Leak In A New RV, What Should I Do?
Hi all, A quick question for all those who know more about RV'ing than we do... We purchased a Salem Cruise Lite 195BH from an RV dealer in October of 2012. It is a 2013 model. We have not been camping (my wife was 35 weeks pregnant at the time), and had the dealership winterize it before we took delivery of the unit. It has been sitting in an outside storage facilty since, we have taken it out a few times just to drive it. We are getting ready for out first camping trip, and notice a wet spot on the ceiling over the door. The spot is approx. 1 inch wide and maybe 1 to 2 feet long... Would this be a warentee issue? What would cause this? We have insured that the RV was level and all doors where tight prior to being in storage.... Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!4.5KViews0likes11Comments
