Re: Anyone use a Dish Tailgater?
Up until recently have been happy. However, this winter even though we've had a clear view of southern sky, it's been dropping satellites. Tonight we were watching a recorded show and when it was over received the dreaded complete signal loss error message. Also wouldn't let us watch any more of our recorded shows. There's a light drizzle tonight but that shouldn't be causing problems. Very frustrated since the main reason for getting this was ease of setup and use.575Views0likes0CommentsRe: Underbelly Blew Out
We had all wiring and water lines clinched up with electric ties and had the valve and cable replaced. Will have belly pans replaced when we get home. The remaining pan we had them screw it down with a bunch of screws. Having the lug nuts and stud pitch checked tomorrow.646Views0likes0CommentsRe: Underbelly Blew Out
Not aware of any leaks. There were 3 panels, 2 are now gone. Thinking they were secure, but apparently not. Wind got in there and ripped them out. Loose lug nuts have been an ongoing problem. Had new lug nuts put on and used some loctite. Torqued to spec and some are still loosening a bit. Can't figure it out.645Views0likes0CommentsUnderbelly Blew Out
We're about 20 miles outside of town heading for home, when the whole underbelly and insulation blew out. Took out bathroom valve cable. Brought back to the RV Superstore so they can restrap tanks and replace valve. They'll also strap water and electrical lines so we can get on down the road. Also have calls in to Lippert and Forrest River regarding the continuing saga of the loosening lug nuts.5.2KViews0likes16CommentsRe: Lug Nut Concerns
Francesca Knowles there is a sticker on the fender flare indicating not to exceed 100 lbs that I was unaware of at the time of the wheel coming off. We lost the fender flare when the wheel came off. So I was relying on what I thought was a professional that knew what they were talking about. If you read one of my previous posts you'll see where I called around to some tire shops to get their opinion on what they should be torqued to. Also found the sticker on the non damaged side after the fact. So,I didn't just arbitrarily make the decision to have them retorqued!491Views0likes0Comments
