It's neither of the breakers in the batt box. I disconnected everything from the one side of the top left breaker and connected the panel feed to the blk w/red wire and I still get the ticking. It is...

Can't really find anything that covers my issue. We have a '14 361REQS and I have rooftop panels, Li batteries, inverter, etc that I installed. All works fine.

I bought a 200w suitcase set for...

If the dealership removes the wheels with an impact gun that's why the lug nut shells are cracked. I replaced all mine on my Chev 3500 and I think a full set of 32 cost me ~50$ in black. Once they...

Yours is different to the setup I had. My tank dropped through the bottom of the spot and had a shelf spot welded in above it which I removed when I put a floor in place of the tank.

I have the ceiling panel joint strips that come down. When the trailer flexes in travel the ceiling panels work the nails out of the steel roof trusses and the panels push the strips off. I've...

To provide that as an option would be admitting to a product deficiency in trailers that didn't get the extra bracing :)

They won't have any shortage of work. Pretty much every fifth wheel with slides in the overhang is susceptible to the cracking.

I'm towing with a '17 3500HD SRW and had a '11 F350 DRW prior. The Chev rides flatter hooked but even with the 3500 I'm right at the tire-limited RAWR. If the 20's are the same as mine then when...

If you don't need the flooring sheets held to the frame then I guess it's unnecessary :)

The expansion joint doesn't fix the problem, it's just hides the results of it. The frame over hang flexes too much for the trailer walls to handle. Although if they put enough steel in there to make...

Mine was about 1/2" long and nearly invisible until this past winter. Returning home thru CO it grew to about 1.5". Likely due to the large road heaves between Vail & the tunnel. My levelling blocks...

Seems about 35# just by picking it up. It's 24"x24"x10" in dims. I don't have a genny onboard so no point in carrying a fuel tank. I put a pc of wood in the spot to make a storage spot.
