Much to see & do in the UP, so plan on a few days traveling around to see the sights. You won't be sorry! Re: Zinger Lite Traven TrailerGene, I have a 2019 Zinger and it appears to be about normal for construction qualify. Fit & finish about par with other units reviewed, so nothing special, however all works as designed except the antenna system. I believe the digital system is lacking considerably.Re: Help please!I ran into this type of difficulty many years ago and had to have my local police department inspect the trailer to verify the serial number and with the report in hand from the police department, the SOS could then generate a title for the vehicle. I suggest you discuss with the SOS or DMV and also contact your local police department.Re: Replacing a A-frame Jack, need to enlarge 2" hole to 2-1/4"I believe you bought the wrong jack. They come in two different sizes depending upon the weight capabilities. Before cutting or grinding, I would check to see if the proper size jack assembly is available.Re: Cruise testing, I would be uncomfortableInteresting subject, but one issue strikes me as absurd!!! What happens when you want to hitch up? What about backing the truck & trailer combo into a campsite? That is slightly uphill!Re: Raising fifth wheelSearch for "axle flip" and you should find plenty of discussion. Don't limit your search to just 5th wheels, but look in several topic areas.Re: More fifth wheel questions.Louvered tailgates normally benefit the hitching/unhitching scenario, but fail to offer any measurable increase in fuel mileage. As far as mudflaps, as previously indicated, on any road surface with loose material, the rear tires will have a tendency to throw the material onto the lower front portion of the trailer. I have towed in some circumstances where the county had recently placed crushed limestone on the asphalt surface to create an additional wear surface and basically removed all paint from the front frame crossmember after only a few miles, therefore some sort of protection would be warranted if you expect to find yourself on any type of roadway with loose materials.Re: How to remove this type of hollow wall anchor?Normally with this type of anchor, if you back the original bolt out a little bit, you can then tap the head and either break the shouler off or straighten out the bend behind the drywall to allow removal. If the shoulder comes off, simply push the anchor into the hollow wall and then mud the hole. If the bottom poriton with the threads does not straighten out the material enough to remove the anchor, then as indicated earlier, a drill will usualy remove enough of the metal holding the shoulder to allow removal.Re: 5th wheel hitchWhen I installed my hitch in a long bed truck, I simply located the rails so that the trailer pin was about 2" in front of rear axle centerline. Seems to have worked well as I have been towing two different 5th wheels with this set up.Re: Bulging siding on fifth wheel?Aluminum siding on trailers usually starts at the top and goes on each piece under the previous piece. To remove, start at the bottom, after removing all obstructions such as windows or other opening covers assemblies. It could simply be an attachement staple pulling out or potentially water intrusion, but getting the siding removed should allow you to see what the problem really is.
