How bad is the truck?

Honestly, the truck IMO fared better than the house. I don't have any pics, but I've got 2 big dings in the roof and 1 big ding on the hood. Probably 20 more very small dings in the hood, roof and dually fenders. I go for the estimate tomorrow. I think putting some foam insulation on the hood and roof helped...at a bare minimum it kept the sunroof from shattering like my neighbors did. I will say this...my neighbor has a brand new F250 black platinum and his aluminum body got the s&*t beat out of it!

Klassic,

That deal would depend on whether Dan needs a whole new roof or only repairs [emoji3]
He'd make out like a bandit if it was the whole roof

Instead of the IS, have you looked into Joy Rider shock absorber system? Much less expensive and you'd get similar results while towing. I know not exactly the same but could be a viable alternative

Looks like a possible alternative! Certainly, the video on their site looks like a great improvement, showing a before and after from inside an RV. Part of what attracts me to the IS system from MorRyde is that by eliminating the axle when hitting a pothole, both sides of the camper won't get jarred simultaneously, and hopefully, the tire will glide over having been supported by the other 3 independently. More research required on my part, thanks for the info!

Here's something that I finally got around to doing. Replace the crappy outside shower with a quick disconnect faucet.
I didn't want to spent $40 on a new coiled hose so I bought an adapter to attach to my existing coiled hose.









Now I can hose off the kids with some force! [emoji3]

What's the attachment you have on your blackwater rinse line?

[Magnolia Tom]

That's just a cheap quick disconnect with a 90 elbow

They look like 90 degree adapters for less hose strain. I used 45's.

Tom I thought that quick connect was one of the first things you bought?
It was the first thing I did...I even kept the coily blue hose from my SOB when I traded it in.
The stock shower head is completely useless.
My SOB came stock with the coil hose and disconnect, I won't go without ever again.

I've had it a while, just finally got around to doing it. We never use the shower. Well, we went to the beach over spring break and needed to hose off. Hence, my new found urgency to finally replace that POS shower

I finally hooked up my video inteface to use my trailer cam on the Sync screen.
Works like a dream.
I had already bought an aux screen, good thing it was only 40 bucks.
I would have hated having two screens in the truck.

And coincidentally my service guy talked me into those shackles. Since the wheels were coming off for the brakes and they were lowering the axels to the next holes, he said well you might as well put on the new shackles too.

Klassic,

Pics or it didn't happen [emoji3]lol

Haha... there was nothing to take picks of but a bunch of wires. I thought about it but didn't know what to take a picture of.
Here's the interface.

Good call on the shackles/wet bolts.

I was looking at mine today in preparation for when my kit arrives. Noticed one of the shackles looks to have an elongated hole already.

Love my MORryde wet bolts and shackles. Thinking about doing my cargo and car haulers at some point.

How often do you grease them?
