Re: Car dolly's what to look for?
Gundog wrote: I want to get a tow dolly what features am I looking for? What tie down type? what design? I do not want to break the bank I have plenty of room to store it I already own 2 16' car hauler trailers one enclosed and one open but don't want to deal with a trailer that size. I don't want to trade cars mine can't be towed 4 down a 2008 Mazda 6 auto FWD. I have the ability to repack or replace the bearings and races if needed. There are many on our local CL used. I am setup for electric brakes on our MH. What do I look for? Eventually I will get a different car that can be towed 4 down I have a tow bar that I got with our coach.598Views0likes0CommentsRe: registration
actually it was a non issue, seller changed from his fathers name from New Jersey to his name in calif and smogged it this morning , I went to look at it, it was slightly worn more than I wanted overall, BUT , when I lifted the dog house, lots of pellets of I guess mice poop , on the transmission and the intake manifold, but what was worse was the rust everywhere, the manifold and throttle body tubes (?) it had banks headers which were rusty, the original shocks and suspension and muffler was rusty, I laid on the ground to look under the body and suspension , just look too rusty for me. I was concerned that the mice might be chewing on wires that you can't see also . we'll just keep looking !313Views0likes0Commentsregistration
im in calif, im looking to buy a Fleetwood class a that's in calif, 3 hours from here, BUT, the motorhome is still registered in New Jersey, for this year, my question is, the calif smog emission stickers needed from the factory, what would have to be done to register it in calif , besides having to pass smog, it might cost a bit of money to transfer to calif specs, any ideas? , Thanks1.5KViews0likes9Commentsfleetwood # 53 problems
looking at a 2000 Fleetwood discovery, I've read about the #53 motor block cracking and leaking, but what I've read mostly in dodge trucks-- is it the same motor block as motorhomes? i'm guessing it's the same either truck or motorhome. the bandaid is the stitch/weld, but it's still thin material, will crack again. the solution is to get a new block! any ideas ? thanks3.6KViews0likes11Commentswinnie vs. holiday rambler
ok folks,lets see the what people think. I have 2 options, 1 is a 01 Holiday Rambler Ambassador, 34 ft. diesel , stored inside , 55,000 miles, separate pooper, good condition ,, or 02 Winnie Journey 32' diesel, stored inside, 34,000 miles , pooper in shower area, good condition, journey is a few thousand dollars more, not gonna say how much each are. no need to discuss dollars, they're in an acceptable price range, different parts of U.S. seem to vary in prices. Anyway, is there a big difference in quality or am I thinking to hard? Thanks3.3KViews0likes10Comments
