Re: What happened to our RV.net??
I understand that bugs will have to be worked out, but this format is difficult to use. Used to be all categories were laid out on one page, easy to see. Now you have open new tabs for different subcategories and hunt through them. Not user friendly. I'll be glad when there's a New Posts button. Ugh!!

I have a couple collector cars, and for years, all I do is disconnect the positive cable for winter storage in Wisconsin. No charging or special treatment or heated garage. Reconnect them in the spring and crank em up. Never a problem and those batteries last for years and years. My fifth wheel has solar, so it all stays connected year round.

I've been using Poli Glow for about 3 years, and I'm disappointed. In some areas it flakes off, especially after heavy rain and have to reapply a couple times a year. I also get uneven coverage (streaky) when looking at it against direct sunlight. I have big patches of flaking right now. Looks horrible. JK1.5KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Bedroom cable slide is jerking
The money is on a failed gearbox attached to the motor. All 3 of mine have failed. Should be a sticker on it with the part number, probably R25076. If it is, Dyersrv.com or Amazon. Replacement part is R25076-1. Easy job if you can turn a wrench, just mark cables so you return them to the same spot. JK295Views0likes0CommentsRe: Air ride pin box question
Cummins12V98 wrote: You need to air it up to 100psi overnight then do your adjustment after hitching. Give it a try, worked for me. That's interesting, and I'll try to remember that, although before hitching I air mine up to about 70 lbs, then after hitching up I drop the pressure until the shock is just above mid stroke, usually around 65 lbs. I almost never have to add more pressure during a trip, even when it's a couple of months. Good to know.996Views0likes0CommentsRe: 2014 3100RL Montana with a Demco Autoslide hitch Problems
I have that hitch together with the Trailair AirRide pinbox. One thing that Demco says is to hitch up with the pinbox slightly lower than the hitch's saddle and let the pinbox ride up onto the hitch as you back up. Never any problem. As far as the safety pin goes, yes when the jaws snap closed, I usually have to pull the handle back out maybe 1/16" for the pin holes to line up. The jaws remain fully closed. I have 65,000 miles with this hitch with probably over 200 hitching and unhitching cycles. JK220Views0likes0Comments
