What Did You Do To Your RV TODAY?

[ttavasc]

Cleaned out and re-organized the outside/under-bed storage and greased the stabilizer jacks. Then started loading some supplies for the upcoming trip to southern Utah.

I finally got around to building a proper jack stand so our trailer can sit level in our driveway, instead of relying on stacked blocks. It's a lot sturdier. Our driveway has a 4 degree slope according to the inclinometer on my truck. So while the rear of the trailer is only less than a foot off the ground, the tongue is around 3 feet.

Ordered a MorRyde storage box to go under the steps.

[Jeff in NC]

Washed it, looks like new again!

[Cannon]

Changed out kitchen faucet and mounted flag pole holder.

Pulled her home from the campground, gave her a much needed bath, cleaned and lubricated the landing gear and leveling jacks, and then started waxing. Got one side done before running out of daylight.

I helped the neighbor get his Jayco hitched up for their week vacation. Does that count? I got the roll of eternabond that I ordered. That is next weekends job I think. Do I need to take off the old sealant off the travel trailer when I put the eternabond on? Can I just clean the old sealant and go over the top of it? Next week will be getting the trailer ready for the summer week. More time consuming than hard work.

Finished cleaning inside, assembled our tool box and started loading our Melbourne. Heading out on Tuesday.

I have the same situation with mine. It's a pain.

Re-plumbed the water what a mess, talk about factory lazy..
Added a water filter to the input of the pump and added a filter to the input from the city connection. Made a pipe to replace them for winterizing. Moved the water pump to where it should have been, now can actually get to the shut off valves.
Put in progressive EMS hardwired protecting the shore power and generator power.
Replaced the mouse hole with the Marinco (30ARVKIT).
Put in switch for the digital thermostat for high and low.
Waiting for a new drum and self adjusting brakes due to a failure of one of the 4 new ones last fall.
Rerouted the heat ducting under the kitchen sink to make the storage compartment useful.
All new GY Endurance E rated tires,
Sanitized the water system.
Cleaned and fixed the power jack fuse holder (causing an intermittent power jack).
Running the generator for the last 2 days trying to use up all the fuel.

The vinyl shrunk and cracked, I ended up just putting some adhesive calk to keep the crack from being worse... looks like new floor time next year .

Put on all new drain valves on the outside, put in a new city water connection.

Oxygenics for the shower

filled the propane tank...

I guess that is why they call it a hobby!

checked the roof, needs a bath, needs to be cleaned out, and stocked up for this weekend.

Finished loading her up in preparation for a very early departure tomorrow! Alaska here we come!

x2. I'd love to see Alaska in general, but I'd love to make the drive across Canada also.

Turned on the fridge so it's ready to load up tomorrow. Also noticed a couple of yellow jacket nests starting to form above the screens in both roof vents. Took a while to find something small enough to fit between the blades of the fans that I could attach to the shop vac hose in order to clear them out. But they are gone so all is good. Glad I finally got around to putting screens over all the exterior appliance vents.....

Installed a MaxxAir vent cover and a brushed nickel “shelf” in the bathroom. Also hung a canvas print of a photo I took on our first trip with the Jayco last December. Brightens up the bedroom!

Hopefully this will be the last time because I’m out of the warranty period.

Picked up the trailer from the dealer. Crack reappeared soon as they lifted it with the forklift [emoji35]

Dealer is in communication with Jayco to see what to do next as they’ve followed Jayco’s repair procedures each time. I may end up sending it back to Indiana for repair

That sucks Tom! Hope it can get done quickly for you.

[Magnolia Tom]

I’m going to see if jayco will either fix it in Indiana or let me take it elsewhere (I’m out of warranty though)

That does suk Tom

Maybe a trip to the great Midwest is in order to have Jayco do the repair.

Good Luck!!

Dang sorry to hear all that. I hope you can get it rectified.
