First Blow Out

Same thing happened to me in West Virginia. I lost the other tire on the same side on the trip home. I’d grab another spare now if that wasn’t the trip home for you.

And I second the TST507. It...

And I did add the bucket trap this year as well, and that caught a few. So I second the bucket trap idea.

I assume you have a travel trailer? If so, they are entering through the power cord, the tongue jack, or by climbing up the tires. The power cord hole you can easily block off with steel wool. I...

Yes, I am in the Cincinnati area.

And as far as the gasser goes, it would be adequate as well. I had a 2016 2500 and, while I couldn’t really accelerate up big hills, it had no problem holding...

When we had a 27BHS, the dealer installed a 10K Equalizer. I didn’t like the amount of movement I had in the trailer, so I made them exchange it with a 12K. The 12K made a big difference. We were...

Why buy the same truck with less payload? F350 for sure. That way you are prepared for the next trailer that you haven’t yet realized you are going to buy. I speak from experience.

Do you have an outside kitchen sink that slides in and out? Our waterline to that would constantly try to unscrew itself, causing a small leak. I would look there first.

So I did this, and it works, but now my truck keeps telling me a trailer is connected. I’m thinking may I need to hook into a different constant 12v. What do you think?

I do have the wiring harnesses on the frame, but those don’t do turn signals. And I did post on Ford-trucks.com. I’m covering all my bases.
Thanks.

If you can wait a couple months before purchasing, put your trailer up for sale on a site like RVT.com. The dealer offered us 11,000 for a trade in, but we were able to sell it privately for 16,900.

Verify CAT scale numbers please

This is the actual sticker:
52633

52634

I’m thinking a tiny bit more on the tongue, and if that doesn’t work, then LT tires. Or just get that F-350 long bed like I’ve been telling him!

Yeah, I’m told him he could go higher on the tongue weight, but at close to 12%, and full weight returned to steer axle, he really shouldn’t have to. I think he may just be suffering from that nice...
