Thanks so much for watching and sharing. I really like how you are loading your bikes, I wish I had thought of that. I appreciate you letting me & others know. Hopefully others will read your comment. One question for you - How are you liking your bike rack and how long have you had it?

@@thetraveltrailerguy I am thoroughly pleased with my Swagman E-Spec bike rack. We used to fold our Electric e-bikes, put them in tubs, and put them in our trailer. This is so much easier and enjoyable and we take the bikes more than previously.

Thank you for watching and appreciating my video. I'm really happy how well it turned out. It was a long video but I felt it was important to share as much as I could so others would feel comfortable taking the project on themselves instead of hiring someone to do it for them. Yep Flex Seal tape and spray is not as good as Eterna Bond Tape, its made to stick and stay in place. Thanks again.

Thank you for watching another one of my videos again :) I hope you were eating popcorn while watching it :) That's great you were able to get out camping this year, we've been camping a lot this year. I'm not sure if I told you already but we went on a 10,000 mile 3 month long trip February - April with several stops from Northern California down south and along the coast to Key West Florida then up to North Carolina. It was a great trip and best of all the weather was great and it only rained a couple times in the evenings for a couple hours. Soon after we got home they all started getting hit with bad weather, lucky us and good planning by my wife (I just drive :) ). We pretty much camp year round every two weeks for 3 nights but we are home for a month trying to catch up on projects around the house.

Yes they are, I wish they would put more pride in their trailers. We have owned a 2020 Lance 2375 since last September and its quality built so not many repairs are needed. What trailer do you have?

@@thetraveltrailerguy Had quite a few over the years. Our latest TT was a 32ft Cherokee by Forest River. The build quality of it was absolutely terrible so we got rid of it. Just recently bought a 2250s Sunseeker motorhome. Same story but with the ford E series chassis, it gives me a little incentive to actually fix and upgrade many of the cheap deficiencies it the RV part of it.

And thank you for watching and your feedback. I make these videos to help others and to give confidence so people can tackle projects on their own instead of hiring someone.

Hello and thanks for watching. With a single axle I would jack it up by placing the jack on the frame as close to the axle as possible. Make sure you are parked on flat ground and block the other side of the trailer tires so the trailer will not move. Thanks for asking your question

@@thetraveltrailerguy thank you Do you have a video on greasing the hub

@@TheBuddyandlilly Yes I do and I must mention how important it is to make sure you are turning the drum while slowly pumping the grease in or you can blow out the back seal which would allow grease to inter the brake assembly area. I hope this helps - kzbin.info/www/bejne/roiWeI2omtqeq6ssi=i4-wLq8_s6_25Qgq

Thanks for watching and taking the time to ask your question. I thought about what you mentioned installing the tape under the trim but went the route of taping over the gutter & vinyl trim (The trim breaks down and cracks from sun damage every few years). By applying the tape over the vinyl trim it protects it from the elements and never has to be replaced again. Also applying the tape over the top of the gutter trim makes sure no water gets under it.

I'm so sorry to hear about all your tires blowing and all the damage caused to your trailer? I am not familiar with what tires you had on your trailer, I did look up your trailer and saw that it is made by Forest River. They used to install Lionshead Castle Rock tires on a lot of Forest River built trailers but I think they stopped around 2020. You may have had a different tire, I would call the dealer you bought the trailer from to ask them if they know. Did you get any pictures of the tires that blew up? What tires did you replace them with? I have and so many others have had good luck with Goodyear Endurance Tires. Here's a video I made awhile back showing Castle Rock Tires that have blown up on the axles and even the spare tire that was never used. I was at a campground earlier this year and I heard a loud explosion sound come from the trailer next to us. I went over to check it out and found the spare tire blew apart at the tread. Here are pictures of all the tires people have shared that have blown. Feel free to watch the whole video if you like. - kzbin.info/www/bejne/rHWofXWOp9-fmqcsi=7ujBfpoBJi56Ba2b&t=386

@@thetraveltrailerguy I found out thru some research and it was confirmed that it was Castle Rock tires and the data has been turned over to Federal investigators to investigate and take the appropriate action to remedy the situation. Thanks so much for your feedback , I truly appreciate it.

@@stephenmichaelgibb1354 Thanks for getting back to me. The makers of this tire need to be held accountable! Their tires have caused so much damage to so many trailers. Fortunately Forest River is no longer installing them as far as I know on their trailers, but they were for so many years even knowing the tire was a problem. I hope you can keep me updated on what happens.

Thanks for watching and taking the time to write. The 4 - 6 volt batteries have a total amp hours of 840 or 210 AH per battery but since you should only run the battery to no less than 50% you can only use 420 AH. The total weight for the 4 batteries is 232 pounds. I went this route because of limited money I had at the time. A few years later replaced the 4 - 6 volt lead acid batteries with 2 - 12 volt Battle Born 100 AH Lithium Batteries (I highly recommend going with Lithium batteries, they can be run down to 0%, recharge much faster than lead acid batteries, are a much lighter battery, and last many more years to) Here's the video - kzbin.info/www/bejne/eIncfZKaaJmtr5Ysi=t4uF-aXh4Txk_auF Watch this video also - kzbin.info/www/bejne/oaSmmqmCg66te7Msi=9zZBqq7hPuE_69bh I hope this information is helpful, feel free to ask more questions if you like.

@@montwolfman Sounds like you have a fun and worth while project on your hands. Couple questions: 1) Do you have a link to share with me to a trailer that is like yours so I can see exactly what you have (maybe there is a video on line showing one)? 2) How often do you you plan on going camping where you have no hook ups? 3) How many days per year do you camp? 4) Do you have a generator? If so what one do you have? 5) What state do you live in? A state you can camp year round or just during the spring and summer months? 6) What brand batteries are you looking at? I'm thinking you should buy this set up if you can afford it, it may be a little more money but its worth it and if you don't you will wish you did later. The solar charge controller is very efficient and you can see what everything is doing your smart phone. I originally bought 2 - 100watt panels and later added 2 more because I found I could get better charging of the batteries on not so clear days. amzn.to/3zgGM3X Have you watched these videos? kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZ2nh3WLaah5g68si=2dyEmQQs1TctPGVm kzbin.info/www/bejne/eIncfZKaaJmtr5Ysi=gkLwHFVizrmPFkoE

@@thetraveltrailerguy Hi Michael. Thank you for your reply. 1) Sorry no link but it's a 1987 Bigfoot 19ft. Worth the investment because of the single seam in the middle design. 2) Have not been camping but plan to 4 or 5 times a year, 3 or 4 days at a time from late spring to early fall due to Utah's harsh winters. We live in N.E. Utah...a long days drive takes you to sunny Az. N.M. 4) I own an Onan 3.5kw. Prefer to use it only when all else fails (lack of Sun etc. 5) Considering LItime 23ah or DCHouse 200ah or 2x LItime100ah. Not sure what to choose. Prefer slight overkill to allow for future expansion. Thanks for the video links. I'll watch them shortly.

You're welcome and thanks for watching and your question. I must be honest, I'm really sure how coating products stick to EternaBond Tape or how Eterna Bond would stick to coatings. I would recommend you contact Eterna Bond and ask them and the company that supplies or manufacture the coating to ask them for some correct answers. I've watched lots of videos on KZbin where people have applied coatings over Eterna Bond but have not seen follow up videos to see how it holds up. Here's a few videos you can watch that may be helpful: kzbin.info/www/bejne/amHUc2qNZ8-toZYsi=CwifgH0dqeyjIbEy kzbin.info/www/bejne/mIC7hqadpq-DjbMsi=-SqrXspXyjCCyuNM Here's what another viewer asked similar to yours and my answer: Viewer - "You did a fantastic job on that roof. I'm in the process of doing mine now and learned a few tricks. After taping with the Eternabond I will use a product call Tropi-cool to coat the TPO in between the tape. Would go over everything but from what I've been reading the coating will not adhere to the tape." My Reply - "Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment and share what you are doing. You're going to be really happy you taped the roof like so many others have done. I've also heard that Tropi-Cool will not stick to the tape so your plan should work."

Not sure where I'll go from here. The symptom is the circuit breaker above the control board trips and I get a single flashing light on the control board.. More to come today or tomorrow.

What brand of seal are you replacing the failed one with? Some people have said they have used the less expensive one and it will leak, but switching to this one like I used in the video works. Dometic (385311658 Flush Ball Seal Kit - amzn.to/3cwDmux Here's some things you can do if you haven't done so already: 1) Remove the seal and examine very closely in the toilet where the seal seats in place and where it can rub against and make sure the surfaces are completely clean, if not water will leak by. Tip: push the pedal down while inspecting for debris, there could be stuff hiding in crevices that need to be cleaned. Then examine the gasket very closely to make sure it is smooth (If not wipe it down with a cloth and silicone grease to clean the area and hopefully smooth out the rubber). Also check for any damage on the seal 2) Check the Toilet Flush Ball amzn.to/3SVOzLc to make sure its clean and is aligned so it will seal against the rubber seal. 3) Make sure you using plenty of the silicone grease on the seal and reapplying it if you feel the seal is drying out?

@@jlantz3691 Yep but one thing you can do is remove the AC unit cover inside and use the silver tape to cover any leaks in this area and smooth out any transitions same goes for the any duct vents you may have, there may be foam insulation they used that needs smoothing out and there could be possible leaks in these areas.
