Flatlander Report post Posted June 24, 2018 Step stool is really nice to have around. Also there is a hose nozzle you can use that sprays the sides of your tanks and not just the bottom. Like $8 bucks at camping world. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PseAZ Report post Posted June 24, 2018 thanks for reminding me, we need to get one for the outside and maybe one for inside, been looking at the collapsible ones. The axels are flipped so it sets up a good deal higher. Should help out in the woods tho. Spray the tanks? like the black and grey water? sorry trying to picture what your talking about.

Yes the black water tank. Its a good idea to flush it out regularly by sticking a hose in the toilet and opening the Black Valve. Thats where the clear sewer hose comes in. Run the hose until the water coming out is clear and toilet paper free. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Edge Report post Posted June 24, 2018 Is the RV used? If so, make certain the carbon monoxide detector is working if it has one. Have the axles serviced and brakes adjusted. Chances are the break away battery is dead. Use a spray bottle of soapy water to look for any propane leaks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Roosevelt Mark Report post Posted June 24, 2018 Wow, lots of stuff. All you need is a cooler full of beer and a pillow. How old are the tires? I just replaced mine yesterday, I replace them every 3 years. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bustedknuckleinc Report post Posted June 25, 2018 What's a good serge protector and regulator for the water? as far as a hitch the trucks already se up for a goose neck. seems to do aright. Ill have to get some rope and throw my square water jugs in just incase I need a tie down. I have a generator and highly doubt we will stay at a park or anything but good to be prepared for whatever. Side note the 303 is awesome stuff, been using it on the truck for the tires, plastic, and leather and its the bee's knee's Next time you need to take your fifth wheel hitch out of the back of your truck watch the video! Game changer for people who still want there truckbed. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
300RUM Report post Posted June 25, 2018 Get one of these stabilizing tripods. It really helps stabilize the front of the 5th wheel bedroom area. Prices vary, but I paid about $100 for mine. download (1).jpeg If you could just behave yourself for a few nights you wouldn't need to stabilize the bedroom area. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bigorange Report post Posted June 25, 2018 Wow, lots of stuff. All you need is a cooler full of beer and a pillow. How old are the tires? I just replaced mine yesterday, I replace them every 3 years. Yeah check the age on the tires...not just mileage. Whenever the battery needs replacement, consider 2x 6v golf cart batteries if it doesn’t already have them. I also replaced all of our incandescent light bulbs with LED which made a huge difference in battery life without running the generator. Seems silly but one other thing we really like that I added is USB ports for charging phones and other devices off the battery without running the generator or plugging inside the truck. Lots of other good stuff mentioned on here already. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
