Blue Ox Super ride help
So I just bought my first fifth wheel and I had a Blue Ox Super ride installed on rails in my truck. The website is not very helpful my tuck is a short bed and the head of the blue ox does not slide. What I can’t figure out is can I make the adjustment for a short bed with the trailer connected or do I need to remove the trailer and reconnect after positioning to back it up with my short bed? Anyone have some insight on this?1.6KViews0likes2CommentsRe: Sagging floor

This would help spread the load to the cross member and possibly not bow the floor material(osb/pressboard-thin plywood)as much or at all. Make sure the extra plywood spans from joist/cross member to the next cross member. Plywood in winter-moist areas will sag from weight over a extended period of time, leaving you with those small dips in the floor. Great advice thanks!!695Views0likes0CommentsRe: Sagging floor

I did store two ATV's in it all winter without taking them out.694Views0likes0CommentsSagging floor
My 2012 razorback 2650 toy hauler the floor has started to sag in the middle. You can't really see it but you can feel the hump near the front and on the sides. It sinks down about 3/8"-1/2". Should I be concerned or is this normal? I got underneath the trailer and the integrity of the beams all look just fine6.1KViews0likes23CommentsRe: Crazy inverter question
DSDP Don wrote: "Devind33"......From the description of your inverter with transfer switch, it should "pass thru" power. This means that when you hook up to shore power, the inverter basically shuts down and uses shore or generator power. Thanks I thought so but I keep confusing myself. I like to over complicate everything428Views0likes0CommentsRe: Crazy inverter question

My Xantrex 1800 pro has a built in transfer switch so when dry camping I just switch my fridge to lP and selected plugs are hot (including tv/stereo). If I plug into a pedestal the 110v passes through my inverter and powers all the items on the circuit and of course I put my fridge back to auto. Remote on/off for inverter is also handy. Inverters with this feature cost more but worth it to avoid having to switch breakers etc. So do you have to turn off the converter or or does the transfer switch take care of the need to do that? Thanks I'm really inexperienced with trailers.428Views0likes0Comments
