  1. Works real good too. I lost air once on my truck due to a valve bypassing. It only went to trailer brake system though. All 3 axles locked down. electric never worked this good.
  2. Subject I hadn't thought about in years. I have air over hydraulics. No air brakes lock.
  3. Don't work for me. Someone has to fix mine for me.
  4. lippert builds drv chassis to drv specs. This discussion brings to mind a story. Years ago I worked on a maintenance job and we basically done what was needed. A part of the plant had many changes over the years. Upgrades and additions had added lots of weight to the building. So engineers had us go in and add braces to the steel. We tore out walls, welded in cleats and bolted steel. Well we should take a lesson from them. We add more and more in our campers and never consider the weight specs of the unit. Now we on this forum are more informed than the masses of rv owners. I dare say over half of rvs are overloaded and some severely. I am surprised there are not more failures.
  5. I don't care what you get. I was just trying to give you something to make this work.
  6. Kinda on standstill just now. Going to have to go to work and make some money. Septic is going to be $9250 and that includes permits. could borrow it but don't want to go in dept.
  7. There are some youtube videos of them. they work well and cleaning is simple. They are power hungry. also make a gas model. They are costly though. Less than lots of septic systems though. Search youtube for Ambition Strikes, burring our poop.
  8. They make inscerting toilets and compost toilets. No septic needed.
  9. They would have been beneficial in my line of work. Respirators and glasses don't work.
  10. I envy people that can use contacts. I tried many pairs and never could see well with them. See decent with glasses
  11. Ray, i believe the original owner must have left system open and it was in Huston area so lots of humidity. It should not have happened under normal conditions.
  12. Think it had a lot to do with me being rather laid back for the last year. Just go on daily walks. Got out of shape.
  13. I posted some time back about rust clogging my orifice in my furnace. I am not traveling anymore so today I abandoned the steel lines and ran 1/2" copper tubing. I ty waped it to the steel lines. Did find rust and fluid in the lines. Most of this was where the tee was for the furnace. I added a drip leg at the end of the line which goes to hot water heater and stove. This area is close to axles so clearance not problem. I was concerned about a drip leg at furnace tee. Could hang on something. Once get on my property, about 10 miles away, may add one. be easy to do. I am surprised how tired I got doing this.
  14. I carried a Smart when we traveled. Great grocery getter and cheap to operate
