Extending front landing gear technique
During the past year with my new fifth wheel when unhooking I always pulled the pin and dropped the front feet and then raised the trailer with the extend button. A couple of times I had difficulty manually lifting one of the feet up to store after hooked up. Thank goodness I ran into the right mechanic. He told me when unhooking to always electrically extend the feet 3" first AND THEN pull the pin to drop the feet. Since following this procedure I have never had the problem again. Has anyone heard this before. Hope this makes sense and will help someone out.12KViews0likes19CommentsRe: Prime Time Crusader
I bought the Crusader 260rld in April 2012; plus a Ford 250 diesel. I love both. New trailer allowed us to stay at Gulf SP Alabama for two months in comfort. Zero problems. Everything works great. As usual a couple of adjustments such as bypass valve wrong. Very nice components and workmanship. Good luck with you decision.404Views0likes0Comments
