I got in there with my bore scope. You can see where the aluminum stud has separated from the interior luan panel. I can't see far enough down to where the weld is. And I don't want to open it up any...

Yeah, I've seen those. Although my Filion isn't cracked in the same manner, I suspect it is a failed joint in the aluminum framing. Suppose the wall framing takes up some of the frame flex from the...

I've often wondered why goose's need chains, and piners don't. Are pin boxes that less prone to failure then a ball type hitch? There's gotta be some cases where a latch has failed, or even just not...

The level up systems are hydraulic. Seen more in the bigger, and higher price point units.

There's more to it than just what the static weight is per axle. Take a board, it holds your weight just fine till you do a little bounce. Then it goes snap. So say your rear axle carries #5000...

We almost need an engineer to chime in and do the math for us lol. Say when I'm loaded an average #18500, pins around #3800. Static on the axles say around #14800, I wonder what that weight feels...

Nope, get more. 2 6volts fit easy. 3 12 volts also. I built a custom battery mount along my frame for 2, 2 more in the factory spot. Running 4 6 volts. These trailers have so many things that need...

That's what I was going to suggest. If the truck can't absorb, the trailer in essence hinges on the pin. Now draw a line from the pin to the back bumper. The further back, the more the trailer...

Right, that's the other style I was thinking about. Had those on a different unit, and I did use to bungy the joint down.

Yup, they're auto draining.....but it can take a lot of water to trip them. Which in my opinion could cause damage before it even dumps. Doesn't your lower arm brace have a knob and is adjustable? Or...

I don't think it makes a difference what brand you buy, or how much you pay, unfortunately. We paid well over $100k for our unit, and it has the same quirks. The fridge door, that's not a keystone...

At the very least run a couple of 6volts. These rigs have some many lights and gadgets running behind the scenes. I don't think I could get thru 1 night on a single 12.

I run the Genny lots for Ac. One time I did have it die do to flooding. Tool a bit to cough out the extra fuel and exhaust. Fired back up and continued on.
