Coconut oil works great for the price and does not go rancid. I use it on all my camp chef iron and my Lodge DO's.

I have a 16 and my x-chocks fit but I do need to have them pretty well fully closed. What tires do you have? I have Sailun so that could be a reason for the difference

Imho you should get rid of the Rainier tires. There's not a lot of positive reviews on them. But, that's a different story.
I think your tires have a 31.7" diameter
I believe mine have a 30.8" diameter
That's probably the difference

I probably will after I get any use out of these. These have a whopping 300 miles on them, been parked in the same place since I bought it 12 months ago! What size are your tires so that I know what I need to get when I do change them?

Good move upgrading to Sailun! No, my rims are the stock rims. I just got new metal valve stems (required for 110 psi) and never looked back.

Great news. I was planning on the valve stems so keeping the same rims will save money. Thanks again for all of your posts and ideas. Your posts and those of other frequent contributors are valuable to us new to RVing.

I do not have that problem on my 2017 377 but they are almost closed. But I have the optional Goodyear tires that were offered on the early 17 model. I believe they were a $2000 plus upgrade.
How good are these Goodyear’s compared to these Sailun tires I keep hearing about?

I don’t have that issue with my 17, mine are almost all the way closed as others have mentioned and I have the GoodYear Endurance tires.

Dave
I don’t remember the measurement but they were all the same. My trailer is at the dealer so I can’t go measure it. What I did was a little trial and error on the first one then did all the others the same. Maybe one of the other guys who’ve done it can measure theirs

Hi, this Darin, on my early model 2017 RLBH, my two doors over the microwave are the only two up swinging doors that will stay open to the ceiling, probably due their size. I've since installed the spring struts on this forum on all other upswing doors. The 3 doors above the recliners have the bottom screw at 5 3/4" down from the rail. The 3 in the bunkhouse are down at 5 7/8". All door brackets are 1/2" in from the edge.
Hope this is the info you were needing.
