Yesterday was my first time towing with our new Andersen Ultimate aluminum.

I love it. Absolutely ZERO slop, noise, or sway. The truck and trailer are one unit.

I couldn't be happier...

I think the issue would be potentially warping the frame if wheels are off the ground. These aren't Class A's, the frames are much more fragile.

Use the propane side of your water heater and your 12v water pump and you'll be fine. I'm not sure if the WH will work on 15 amps.

Battery Box Removal

Does anyone know how to remove the sealed battery box on a 2011 Eagle? I need to access the landing gear.

Thanks!

Ours is under the steps in the belly. If you look into the storage bay from the curb side, it's behind the rear bulkhead.

That's kind of what I think as well. This one is a replacement for one that failed. Maybe this one has also given up the ghost.

Our 321RLTS has an installed generator with a transfer switch. We use a surge protector at the pedestal, and there is also one onboard.

To the best of my knowledge, the club isn't active in my area (NC), which is a shame. We're considering a switch to Airstream because of the very vibrant ownership group with rallies, etc.

We have a tensest and the transfer switch has been the culprit twice in similar situations. You may have an ATS as part of a "generator prewire" package. Just a thought.

Flygirl, that is precisely how we refill the onboard tank from the water truck at Talladega. It should work fine for you.

How would I jack it up without making it more unstable?? It seems to me that with the leg and footpad down, putting a bottle jack under the foot and jacking up would make it "wobbly". I'll give...

When the other shear pin broke, the recommendation here was for the grade 8 bolt. That's why I chose it. I mentioned it to the Jayco service rep, and he didn't voice any concern.

I'm talking about the shear pin that connects the cross drive bar to the gearbox. It's a grade 8. 1/4x20 bolt. That part's easy. It's getting to it that would entail a lot of disassembly.
