Propane not working in stove
My stove top is not getting any propane. I can't hear it and it wont light. If I turn on the heater furnace the stove top will light, so everything is flowing. But not everything is working properly. Both of my propane tanks are near full. I tried the regulator left, right, and center with all the same results. The stove is not getting propane UNLESS I turn on the furnace first. Any suggestions or guidance would be appreciated.909Views0likes2CommentsRe: Can I purchase any wheel with the right size & bolt pattern?
I was too brief in my post. Here are more details to clear up the confusion. I am going to add a spare tire to my rig. In order to do that I need to purchase a tire and wheel. I am purchasing the Goodyear Endurance from Camping World for $124. (mounting and balancing additional) I asked the RV dealer for a quote on a matching wheel. They quoted me $174 for a matching wheel from Grand Design. (wheel only, without the tire, even the center cap and lug nuts are extra $) I did a quick google search and found that you can buy trailer wheels from many brands/dealers from as low as $35 dollars a piece. I picked one that appeared to be decent in quality and price. What I learned from your replies is that - I need to also consider the offset - etrailer is a recommended source for wheels @Grit_dog (and anyone else asking why am I adding a second spare) We are will be traveling from Southern California to Alaska. There are a lot of issues with frost heaves on the highways through Canada. The "issue" is that I am concerned about being far from a shop without a backup to my back up. To address the primary issue of a potential flat tire/blowout we are upgrading all the tires to the Goodyear Endurance, which is fixing the issue like you suggested. But adding the second spare is going to help me sleep better at night. Thanks for your input though because it forced me to re-think the plan and make sure I wasn't doing it just because.895Views0likes0CommentsRe: Can I purchase any wheel with the right size & bolt pattern?

I am going to add a second spare tire and I was quoted $174 for a direct replacement from factory of what is on my trailer now. That is ridiculous if you ask me. A quick search came up with these for $56 each. https://www.discounttire.com/buy-wheels/liquid-metal-supreme-hd Am I missing something as far as quality or specifications that justifies the $174 price from the dealer? Or is it ok, and smarter, to just go with a new wheel at a better price?6.3KViews0likes25CommentsHow to secure storage area while connected to water?
My city water hook up is inside my front storage area. This means I cannot lock the storage while the hose is connected. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to secure this area? Does anyone else have this same problem? 2019 Grand Design Transcend Xplor, 265bh7.9KViews0likes30Comments
