RV UPGRADES: MORryde SRE 4000 | WATER HEATER FIX & NEW MATTRESS

[@KeepYourDaydream]

A few have commented about the jack under the axle. The RV was being 100% supported by jacks on the frame. The floor jack on the axle was only to move it up/down to align the bolts with the leaf spring. The slight bend in the axle is the crown and all axles should have this. The angle of the shot made it look more exaggerated than it is. All is good is in the trailer hood.

[@smcdonald12]

Glad to hear. All the best on your next adventure.

[@calebj0682]

Yeah I was cringing when they did that. Video made it look like it was bending. Awesome upgrades!! Did we ever get a video on the new hitch??

[@grassland5165]

Good. Looked like bent axle by jacking the axle.

[@maribethspence9458]

oh thanks for enlightening us on that I thought it was bent too. After having some axle problems with my car recently, seeing that kinda alarmed me a bit

[@Sig721Tau]

Keep Your Daydream Why did you upgrade the axles and suspension on your travel trailer? Isn't the factory suspension sufficient?

[@alanhester9984]

I have driven the Al Can 23 times over the last 38 years. First time I drove it, was all gravel. I was 16 and drove to Fairbanks from S. CA where my grandparents lived. My mother worried to death that I was on this 4000 mile trip at 16 but she got over it and even joined me for the return trip in the fall. I have driven it with VW campers, Pick ups, trailers, motor homes. People still prepare like they are going to the edge of the world in reality the road now days is good and the major towns have everything you find here in the states. I've had a few blow outs but bought a replacement tire at the next town. Never worried about if any thing would failed like bearings. The one thing that I have seen and had happen to me, is travel trailers broke down along the hwy because of broken leaf springs. I would carry a spare spring. I just carried some 6x6 blocks so if a spring broke on the trailer I would jack it up put a block between the axle and the frame and continue on to the next town. If it were the front of the spring I carried a cable come along to attach to the front of the frame and tie the axle from sliding back. The main thing even though the road is good and paved is not to drive over 45 mph as you will hit frost heaves and pot holes unexpectedly. Also the people who go faster never see the wild life along the hwy. You will have people pass you doing 60 mph and you run in to them at a look out or the next town and they will ask "did you see any wildlife?" Yes we saw bears, goats, moose. They say "well we didn't see any thing. That's because they were going to damn fast to see any thing! Even at 45 mph it is hard to get stopped quickly when you see bears and other animals. You also want to keep away from cars as they see something they'll just slam on the brakes with out seeing if a bigger rig that can't stop is behind them. It's a great drive that I have never gotten tired of. Just take your time and have a trip of a life time.

[@charlesboyer8207]

Great advice! Thank you!

[@michaelcanto6175]

Great Recommendations to box the spring supports in. We had a failure last May in our Keystone Raptor RP3712. The mechanic thought we were nuts. NOW we're doing the TrailAir Center Point Air Ride Supension UPGRADE!

[@chrisludwig9783]

you guys will love Alaska. a few years ago we took rv from Chicago . we were supposed to be gone for 10 days. we didn't come home til a month and a half later. eagle and chicken were very interesting little towns. the views in Seward and skagway were amazing. TAKE THE TRAIN RIDE. Be safe some roads a little rough

[@ranchhq8014]

Great update. Remember that old adage: "Every day spent in the repair shop before a trip is a day you won't be broken down on the Alaskan Highway. Maybe." I was in a Tractor Supply outlet yesterday and I thought of you guys when I saw some beefy tow straps. 30'X4" with loop ends. Looking forward to the Truck Updates.

[@KeepYourDaydream]

I was in Tractor Supply yesterday too. I got the military style 5 gal water tanks. Plus a 5 gal diesel, even though we have 60gal on the truck now. Love TS.

[@KennethSievers]

Awesome upgrades!!! I installed the SRE-4000 and it makes a ton of difference inside the rig, plus about 1.5" higher ride height. I also upgrade to disk brakes about a 1yr ago, all I can is Wow, what an improvement on the drum brakes. Also the Timken bearings is all I have that has not been done yet. Thanks for sharing!!

[@kentfyfe8200]

Did you do yourself, or have done? I have access to the product and am debating if I should do or have done. Doesn't look too difficult, just time consuming?

[@KennethSievers]

kent fyfe. Took me a weekend to do leaf springs, heavy duty shackle straps and the MRE4000, then the next weekend took a 150 mile trip and rechecked torque settings a few times along the way.. Disk brakes took a other weekend.. Good luck!

[@MrChickwick]

Just watching your under-trailer GoPro video is proof of why leaf springs are better for this use than torsions. Great video & I'll be living vicariously through you on your trip north.

[@charlesboyer8207]

Me too!

[@johntillman3592]

Back from my trip, Replacing the mattress with a 10 inch MF was the first and best upgrade I could've made. slept better than home. Great video.

[@glenntalbot6756]

I will definitely pay better attention to servicing my bearing now. I like the suspension upgrades, I'll have to look in to boxing off the shackle mounts after hearing how many RV's have had that twisting issues. Thanks for the Tech videos!! I agree with others that preparations will help prevent future headaches and break downs.

[@pacificcustomproducts3488]

Great upgrade video. We added the SRE 4000 and HD wet shackle bolts last summer to the 5er and welded in the spring hangers same as you show in the video. We then upgraded to Disk brakes and Timken bearings on the trailer made huge difference to the performance and ride.

[@jeremywilliams1176]

Good luck on your trip to alaska my family drove it when I was 14 my dad was military we stay in our rv for 3 months while our house was being built absolutely loved it their you should go twice a year once in the summer and once in the winter it is amazing

[@d137R20]

Great choice going with the Sailun tire. I have been very impressed with our new ones. Im looking forward to seeing all of the Alaska footage!!

[@jamesmurray9333]

Hanger failure is what totaled my 2014 Coachman Passport. One of the hangers failed on our 2000 mile trip from California to Washington state last July, and by the time the trailer got to the repair shop in Tillamook OR, the flat bed ride broke the frame. That allowed us to get our Grand Design Image 2600RB. Great rig. I will be looking into beefing up the hangers on this one. Thanks for the video.

[@EarlBalentine]

Cliff's Welding completed my MorRyde SRE4000 and I had 3 X-memebers installed. They did an excellent job and I highly recommend them.

[@KeepYourDaydream]

Nice. Thank Earl.

[@christopherroberts5659]

Thanks for the sneak peak at the truck upgrades. I hear Cliffs is the best in town. They will be who i use for my next bearing pack.

[@vincepovio7849]

We purchased a new 2018 Class A Motorhome and the mattress was painful at best!. We purchased a custom King size from Mattress Insider about 11 months ago and instantly my back pain disappeared within 3 to 4 nights. Mattress insiders were great to work with. Love your video's and am looking forward to the remainder upgrades and the Alaskan Adventure.

[@TheBowler802]

I'm a new subscriber to y'alls channel. Soon to be purchasing my 1st Travel Trailer! You guys are so helpful and informative. I have literally taken pages of notes from your videos about perfect organization, upgrades, what to look for in a 1st time RV. This video helps more than you know. I've always been concerned with how trailer suspension is made, but seeing this upgrade and the go pro underneath was incredibly helpful!! Keep doing what you do and have fun on your trip to Alaska.

[@jamesfarnham1976]

Great stuff as always. The shot of the suspension flexing going over the speed bumps was excellent! When Ginger is all loaded up to the max it would make a good repeat shot to compare. One really begins to understand what those "junk" undercarriages and china bombs are going through on all these rigs flying down the roads. The turning and twisting and failing is a terrible way to learn just how unsafe they really are. Tip of the hat to those guys at the repair shop for the quality work and honest evaluations. Also you can feel good you'll be one of the few rigs traveling with American made bearings!!! Thanks for all you two do. Jim.

[@anthonyc1883]

That under-chassis GoPro view at 8:00 is fantastic. But wow...all that weight on the final leaf of those leaf springs. I would not think it was possible. Very interesting.

[@alaskanroadtrippers4392]

An update to my early post. I just came down the Alaskan Highway and you having the Leaf spring brackets welded up was a good idea. The highway is mostly paved not too many construction areas take your time and enjoy. You have got to stop off at larid Hot Springs on your way up

[@freebirdrvadventures712]

Great Video and essential upgrades. I have to have a spare spare. Most of the ALCAN will be smooth 65-70 MPH/110KPH but from Burwash landing to AK border and all roads in AK are rough (lots of frost heaves (think moguls)). When you installed the mattress I noticed you have the same blinds that came in our rig. I recommend you swap the blinds in your sleeping areas with MCD blackout blinds. 24 hours of daylight makes it hard to sleep without blackout blinds.

[@TravelswithYoly]

One of the most successful race teams describes "success" as 90% preparation and 10% execution. I love to see quality work being done these days ... it restores my faith in mankind. I've always been a firm believer in preventative maintenance. I can also vouch for the importance of a comfortable mattress and a 5 inch gel/memory foam is ideal for campers of all types. Looks like you'll be well prepared for this season's adventures and I'm looking forward to them :-)

[@KeepYourDaydream]

I agree. Preventative maintenance is a lot less stressful.

[@TravelswithYoly]

And a heck of a lot more convenient :-)

[@chrisalteria1312]

Great choice on the bearings. I put them on my 2500 series Ram when I did some suspension work and my boat trailer when I upgraded the brakes.

[@craighopper2797]

I have never thought to weld the ends of the spring hangers to add support, that's a great idea. I will be doing mine tomorrow.

[@KeepYourDaydream]

Easy, cheap and highly effective

[@MrMLT67]

Love the upgrade and repair videos, can’t wait to see the solar video. Also, my oldest daughter just finished her freshman year away at College and fair warning, I thought my wife we be upset when we dropped her off but I have to say I was an emotional mess. It’s a new chapter in your family’s lives and you learn to adjust and find new ways to keep in touch.

[@dougdoris8622]

We really look forward to your Sunday videos and this one was great. My wife and I have been in our Grand Design Reflection 5th wheel since March. We have not done the suspension upgrade yet but I'm thinking about it. We are really looking forward to your Alaska videos!

[@PetFoodScoop1]

Bought a mattress insider gel two years ago (full time, also) and love it. Did go with double instead of queen short to increase walk around room and it fit the frame perfectly. Their customer service follow up was amazing. I continue to recommend them. And, they are a Colorado company! Say, would love to know how, and with what, you change the emergency window latch so I can do the same. Not for a mattress, but I want to fill that space in my bunkhouse and still be able to open the window without shifting stuff around. Been following your family since the beginning of your journey - love to all!

[@amandawinzeler2287]

Arizona foam in down town Phoenix will make custom size beds for your rv as well. That’s where we got our cool gel memory foam toppers for our pop up. It’s even cheaper if you don’t care about there being a cover on it.

[@toddhoffmaster6057]

Putting the GoPro underneath to watch the axles work was awesome. On your truck have you decided in adding an Airdog fuel water separator pump? That was one of the best things that I did for my diesel. It helps to prevent contaminated fuel to the injectors and also helps boost the fuel pressure from the tank to the injection pump.

[@BettyA]

That was great. Most of it is over my head, but I'm so glad there are good people and good businesses around that know how to properly get things done. Congratulations, Tory. You're going to have so much fun at school. Do well!

[@riverking4u]

Wow high guys, i't been such a long time!! How the kiddies??? Wow college!.!!! Ok, we are the people you met like 4 years ago at Oatman, AZ. God Bless guys!!

[@johnrobbins7964]

Although I usually find your videos interesting and funny, sometimes, I think someone’s been scaring you about the trip to Alaska. In 1992 I pulled an old (ie very heavy) fifth wheel from Arizona to Missouri to Washington state then up the Alcan to anchorage. Three years later I pulled it back down to Missouri! Sold it, bought a small cab over camper and drove it back to Alaska. With a 1991 Dodge Dakota 4x4 extended cab with my wife, three daughters and our 100 lb lab, 200 lbs of Sams favorite dog food, because beau liked it and Alaska didn’t have any Walmart’s yet, a case of oil, case of anti freeze, four 5 gallon cans of gas, and whatever the fresh water tank held. I never got a flat or even a window chip on those trips. Between 92 and 95 I drove up 3 times total and down twice. No problem with gas either! Although the dakota (318 ci, before the magnum) did drop down to 9 mpg thru the mountains, overall it was great. I bought it new in 91 in Phoenix. Drove it until 2002, had 237000 miles, is still driving around anchorage today. You will encounter a lot of road repairing going on fixing winter potholes where you will have stretches following pilot cars, so that will slow you down some in rough road areas, mostly the roads, 22 years after my last trip down, are good, the worst is when you get close to the border at Tok, seems to be a long running dispute on who is responsible to maintain the roads close to the border, and you will encounter some pretty awesome frost heaves you will have to slow way down for during the first half of the day drive from Tok to the anchorage area. My current Dodge Ram 2004 4x4 quad cab I bought new in 04 and it has 270000 miles with zero major repairs, fifth windshield tho, it’s worse around town. This truck has all Alaska miles. I do 3000 miles every two months, just do your regular maintenance and you should be fine. I took your advice and just bought a used motorhome, am retiring this month from self employment, and plan to put some miles on this motorhome. I hope I get to run into you guys if we get in the same AO, will watch your posts. I will probably leave Alaska around the end of June. My kids have all grown and moved to Washington, Texas and Oklahoma. Got me some visiting to do.! Lol! Enjoy your trip, the scenery is outstanding, my favorite drive was in August 95, from Calgary till about halfway to Saskatchewan I had northern lights on the horizon for hours....and don’t leave food unattended outside your camper! Lol!

[@johnrobbins7964]

Sorry it was so long !

[@KeepYourDaydream]

Yeah, I get it. It's just like Mexico... everything is exaggerated. I still think good suspension, tires, solar and an extra large fuel tank are good for full-time travel. We hope to show what it's really like.

[@johnrobbins7964]

Keep Your Daydream can’t argue with any of those things, my generator won’t run if I have under a quarter tank of gas, safety feature so you don’t run out, although I don’t anticipate needing it often, solar is cool too. Have a great trip.

[@brentdreamer2025]

John I would consider you a very lucky man, not getting even a chip out of your windshield on the Alcan highway. I grew up in Fort Nelson which is mile 300 and everyone I knew had cracked or chipped windshields because of that highway. LOL

[@SARGENTO007A]

I really didn’t care about any of it...aka. Technical stuff. But I just couldn’t stop watching! And it turned out to be quite interesting. Thanks for sharing.

[@arturowagner4728]

Really liking these upgrades! Having broken down on the road so.many times has birthed an interest in repairs and upgrades.

[@arturowagner4728]

Good call on the U.S. made bearings. I have tractors and farm implements, and I use only high quality bearings. They are such a hassle to change, that I don't want to worry about them for a long time. Japanese bearings are also very well made. See you next week!!!

[@carterphotoify]

After watching your up grade I thought this would be great to do. Jacked up my 30 ft trailer, and cribbed it up with cross ties. The first thing I notices during the tear down that the bushings were plastic and egg shaped, after only 7,500 miles on a 2016 Aspen Trail (Dutchman) one of the springs had NO bushings (great quality control). Installed the Morride and the cross bracing. Now off to Alaska

[@danigirl7269]

Thanks for showing us your upgrades. You never know when you might need to enhance your RV for the future expeditions. I’ll have to definitely show hubby this video. Our fifth wheel master bedroom mattress is not the best I’ll have to look up the company you suggested. Great go pro shots of the new morydes. So that is how they work🧐. Happy and safe travels!!

[@dougs2301]

Great video, I did the same thing - replaced the bearings after only 5k miles with Timkens for peace of mind.

[@UtahRoadbase]

Love you guys and love your videos! Thanks for all the information I've gleaned from you so far. One question I've had, and I've watched all your videos (I think!), is what your "home base" is like. Did you keep your house? Did you sell your house? When you go "home" do you stay with family? We're trying to make the move to full time and I'm exploring what other people have done. I'd would love your input! Thanks again so much for your channel and happy trails!

[@bigtruckbigrv4119]

Great job! You guys have really been making some killer content! We did the same SRE4000 upgrade to our Fifth Wheel and still love it! Should consider Shocks next.

[@KeepYourDaydream]

Thanks. Likewise. We're back to travel videos again now. I'll leave all these upgrade vids to you!

[@BTBRVReviews]

Keep Your Daydream: lol, you sure make installations look exciting my friend. I'm sure you'll enjoy all the truck and RV upgrades as they are the right ones! The only additional upgrade I would suggest would be to carry several additional spare tires with you. Preferably all steel rated tires. Alaska has roads that can be very unforgivable and last thing you need is to go through your spare and need another. I got is telling me that you need 3 total spare for the TT. safe travels.

[@tswitz65]

Thanks Marc for making this video. I'm going to be buying a Grand Design TT in the near future and have been doing some reading on the axle problems on GD trailers. It was nice to see the beefed up axles and suspension being added. Enjoying all of your helpful info! Thank you and safe travels 🙂

[@jamieoverstreet9111]

Loved the go pro action of the new suspension, it really showed how well it works. Thanks for the info!!

[@nathankilgore3170]

Rest assured. Those are good bearings! They are what we used on F-16's in the Air Force.

[@grassland5165]

Check the lugnuts. Retighten as needed. Also check the suspension and tires at each pit stop. Three years ago when adjusting brakes I noticed clicking sound in one wheel while spinning it. Bad bearing. I also will check hubs by touching them when I stop to see if any heating due to bearing issue.

[@klouism1]

Great video. It defiantly pays to get USA made bearings and other things that often take a beating. Pay up front or pay more later with inconvenience and sometimes days waiting in a small town for parts. Good call. Stay well & happy.

[@akbigdaddy100]

Another great video thanks guys I love all of your videos, I really enjoy you guys sharing not only the great locations but all your RV'ing upgrades and tips Keep up the great work! I hope you have a great trip up here to Alaska. ( from Kenai , Alaska)

[@stevecastro22]

Really good camera shots Marc. Another great video, thank you for sharing.....

[@smoke09able]

Thanks for the review and info on Mattress Insider. I just ordered an 8" RV Queen for my travel trailer. Keep the great videos coming!

[@smoke09able]

I forgot to input your promo code on my initial order last night. I called Mattress Insider this morning and they fixed it in less then a minute. I'm impressed already and haven't even received my mattress yet!

[@brianmombourquette5381]

Looking forward to the Alaska season. Should be a fun summer! You will have company, with Less Junk More Journey and The Motorhome Experiment also heading up there. Have a great time!!

[@KeepYourDaydream]

The Motorhome Experiment is going too? I need to catch-up on their videos. I didn't know that. It's going to be a party apparently :)

[@rockwestfahl]

Great video. I agree wholeheartedly with this suspension upgrade. That is a lot of trailer and you need a margin for error to run the AlCan Highway with it. Good luck and will follow your progress.

[@frugaldiyhandyguy9295]

Nice video as always. I can see why the kids were complaining about their beds. The view of the suspension while moving was enlightening. Thanks.

[@charlesboyer8207]

True!

[@johnebakeriii]

YAY, Marc & Trish!! You have appeased the RVGods with beefier suspension and they will reward you on your way to, in and from Alaska!! Yes, I groaned over the "bearings gifts" pun so, consider me punned!! ;) Meanwhile: In your previous vid pitching the upgrades, at about 18:01... Did I see a set of Battle Born LiFePO4 batteries??? BRAVO!! It's so wonderful to have such smart friends!!! Watch your tail swing, keep th' greasy side down and keep it 'tweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen th' ditches, Y'All!! :)

[@davidhillbrand2302]

Great video. Love the cam mounted under the trailer to see the MORryde in action.

[@anthonylau3065]

Ditto here.

[@billmalec]

Had no idea those things move that much.

[@johnralston5818]

... WOW... that's a super suspension upgrade... Good Job Guys !! That shop deserves a shout-out. Thanks for the video- Be safe- & God bless ya'll ;)

[@BarkingCur]

Thank you so much for this video. Since we will be picking up the same make and model RV this weekend, these tips will help us out a great deal!

[@aprildawn8692]

Great video and great upgrades, I also love the footage under Grand Ginger. Thank you for the mattress information. Our mattress is pretty horrible and we've been talking about changing it out. ☺

[@dontask8979]

That axle work looks like a great idea before Alaska. Paying the dump fee to get rid of the mattress that came with my trailer was so worth it. I went with the "Tulo" bed in box. Heavier than expected, but very nice. I also picked it up local on a "Holiday Sale" King for queen price Queen for the price of a twin. So Firm Queen for $375! I think the normal price was $650

[@opaandomascampingadventures]

We love mattress insider. Bought one for our camper 6 weeks ago. Never slept better in our rv!! That’s not the first time I seen a circuit board go bad on a rv this month. Must be a bad batch of boards. And finally-awesome video of the suspension. Looking forward to following your trip.

[@petermccarthy1792]

Loved the GoPro video showing your new suspension at work! Very cool.

[@tinaguenther5752]

I’ll miss Tori on this season good luck to her n school and I loved her dress so cute . Im excited to see what y’all do in Alaska, love ur videos

[@Dang_Jim]

Thank you for the recommendation for the Mattress Insider mattresses! When we get our camper, I have a feeling, we will have to change the bed out. I'm 26, but I have a couple herniated discs and scoliosis, so I definitely need something supportive.

[@alaskanroadtrippers4392]

Great information. I head out tomorrow from Anchorage AK. I m driving out and will pick my wife and little one in Seattle. Than we head over to Michigan to pick up a Jayco seismic toy hauler. We are coming back through Mt. Rushmore and other sites along the way. I certainly can let you know how the highway is.

[@lindsayshackelford6375]

Awesome updates loved the footage you were able to get! And thank you for mattress info we have been talking about maybe just a mattress topper for now but with this knowledge maybe a new mattress!

[@dailydoseofnirvana]

Wow, when you said you were shifting to rv tech videos, I pretty much shifted to snooze mode. However, this video is full of gems! I can’t pick just one. My favorite is Tori‘s last which is “don’t share a room with your siblings” 🤣 Love the way you decided to go with US made and I am making note of the shop you dealt with. Your channel just continues to bring it and I so appreciate it 🙏💕🤗

[@garyhanson4133]

Some really great tips and love the upgrades. They are still working to get the snow off of going to the sun. We've had so much snow this year they are thinking late June early July before it gets open. Alaska should be lots of fun and I think you are making some great preparations. I'm sure the kids will really enjoy those mattress. By the way got my t-shirt love it, really comfy.

[@nickrachjames]

It feels like forever ago that you posted a video and I know you did one last Sunday. I really love watching your travels and experiences. Your entire family is very good in front of the camera!! Plus, whoever edits, Trish?, is doing a fantastic job as well. I will miss your daughter on your next trip, too. Maybe one day you could start doing two videos a week? Lol, that's my dream. I'll be waiting for your next video. Good luck.

[@jeffreylines1535]

I like the hanger reinforcement, I was thinking we should do something to strengthen them on our rig

[@KeepYourDaydream]

Simple upgrade that I think is good when it's at a capable shop anyway.

[@markjones8424]

WOW looks like you got some more free stuff. Great video! Thanks for sharing.

[@michaelbowen7453]

I think I see where the bent axle came from or at least a contributing factor. At 1:19 when the jack raises the rig the axle shows a bend at the jack contact. Every other shot of the jack holding up the rig that same bend it there. I’m no mechanic but just doesn’t seem to be a good lift point for all that weight. I hope you get it resolved soon. Looking forward to season 6.

[@RVHabit]

Very good suspension upgrades. Also, a good mattress is a must to have a good night sleep. I have three different toppers on the RV mattress that adds almost 8 inches. It makes the world of difference. Never heard of Mattress Insider but looks good.

[@0HARE]

Excellent episode! Take care of the potential problem before it leaves you stranded, or worse. Rock On

[@kenrup]

Again a great video. Your hide a spare idea is going to solve my problem for carrying my empty blue wastewater tote for dry camping.

[@KeepYourDaydream]

Yes, I've seen many people do that. I added the hide-a-spare to our Amazon page. They can hard to find. make sure you get the right one. There is covered belly and open belly. www.amazon.com/shop/keepyourdaydream

[@garyalton7770]

hey guys, thanks a lot. I was going to get a mattress, just hadn't pulled the string yet. You saved me around $200 with the sale going on and the discount.

[@mattgraham8391]

I'm definitely going with that MORyde upgrade! Great video. I'll be boxing in those spring shackles as well. Its a shame the manufacturers just can't build them with that simple boxed shackle. Cant wait to see your journey through Alaska!

[@KeepYourDaydream]

You'll like it. They do add this suspension on higher priced rigs.

[@whitewaterplayboating]

That is a very cool suspension upgrade!! It is on my wish list!!

[@AZExpert]

Great video, you never disappoint with quality and content. Cliff's does A+ work.

[@dennisgebhart8278]

Also just wanna say that I am totally jealous of you guys. Wish that I could do something like this. But it ain't happening. I could see my 01, 2500 Dodge with 311,000 miles pulling a camper lol. Your videos are enjoyable and I live vicariously through you! Keep it up!

[@trolling4dollars816]

You were in Phoenix for this because Bearing, Bolt, and Chain is one of my vendors. If you ever need custom leaf springs, check out Dunbar Springs (Washington/ 7th Ave)

[@KeepYourDaydream]

You're right. That's were we picked up the bearings. Or Trish picked up.

[@jeffowens8722]

I'll be welding caps on my leaf spring holders now!

[@bradmarks2315]

Recently took our travel trailer in for wheel bearing check, repack or replacement if necessary. They did a great job.....but when I started to get on the road home...no electric brakes. That sure increases the pucker factor! Partially my fault for I usually check the function of the electric controller after hooking up and starting to roll. After 3 hours of adjusting the brakes on all 4 wheels and rechecking, they're working fine and no issues using them on the 3000 mile trip to Seattle and back. There was head scratching and no explanation as to how/why this occurred since the brake adjustment was not messed with prior to the wheels being removed. Lessons learned.....

[@caleyarboroughTX]

Loved seeing the video of how the MORyde system actually works. Great shot!

[@yatahey62]

Can't wait to see the Alaska trip video's. Excited for you guys.

[@KeepYourDaydream]

Same here!

[@waltfore280]

Great video. Thanks for sharing. Nice deal for custom fit mattress'. Interested to see the rest of the upgrades. Be safe. Safe travels. Later.

[@daveswaisgood7995]

Great upgrade and maintenance ....looking forward to next week's! 3 weeks of fifth wheel trips so far this season...trying to plan a West trip this Fall watching for tips on any maintenance I may need to do

LOVING MY “Keep Your Daydream” shirt...THANKS Y’ALL...

[@KeepYourDaydream]

Awesome!!

[@robandchantelgibbons1491]

Note to self.... A spare for the spare. Another great KYD video!

[@dennisgebhart8278]

Capping the spring mounts was good. But, I think I would have gusseted the new plates to the frame also.

[@tomd.benjamin762]

Sweet under trailer/suspension footage!

Absolute awesome video thank you very much for your time hopefully they can send to Australia all the same suspension parts

I really liked the MORryde action view.

[@jagoss45]

I’m definitely gonna look into the mattress upgrade.

[@sandyoklahomatransient8557]

Nicely done! You shouldn't have any issues traveling to Alaska. Those are some really nice mattresses. Your kids should sleep better. I'm excited for y'all 😊

[@martyemerick4687]

I just placed my order for a new mattress. I thank you very much for the $45.90 discount. Can't wait to get a good night's sleep!

[@KeepYourDaydream]

Good! You'll like it!

Great video Mark and Bearing Girl!!! I missed the leaf spring hanger upgrade on Ginger 1.0. Excellent idea, will have to go back and watch. Ever thought about an endless water heater? I know LJMJ had one installed. Looking forward to the next upgrade vid. Keep safe guys!!!!

[@KeepYourDaydream]

We haven't had any issues with our water heater. We have more hot water than we need, but we'll it depends on how cold the water comes out of the ground. We'll see how much we get in BC and AK.

[@Randy-hg5pi]

Keep Your Daydream So you are coming through BC. Be great to meet and chat.

[@KeepYourDaydream]

On the way back most likely :)

The route north from Banff to Jasper, Alberta (Icefield Parkway: Hwy 93)would be memorable for you all! Stunning scenery.

[@toh2002]

OUTSTANDING Video guys. Looks like Ill be upgrading the leef spring hangers before our big trip.

[@simonblanchet7336]

We just noticed your griddle on the outdoor kitchen. A review by Trish with some cooking tips would be great! :-) We are thinking of getting a new RV and the MORryde is right in top of our first upgrades. Love your videos. Keep up the good work!

[@KeepYourDaydream]

I'm sure we'll include that in a regular episode.

Your upgrades look great. I have a warning for you with the BAL Hide a Spare. I have that on my trailer and when I lowered my spare to check on the tire pressure. I found that the beams had worn into the side of the tire making it unusable. I am in the process of having the tire replaced. Dealer says this is the first they have heard of this. I am thinking it has to be a common occurrence. Please check your spare after a period of driving to see if you are having the same issue. I don't want you to have problems in Alaska.

[@KeepYourDaydream]

Good suggestion. I'll do periodic checks, which I would have never done without your comment. Thx.

[@tommcl386]

Dealer changed type of bolt that is holding the spare so there is not as much pressure on the spare. The scrapped using a carpet in between beams and tire, they were afraid of keeping too wet and having rot. I will keep a close eye on it. When I get a chance I will send you pictures. Dealer had all my mods done in 5 days. Picking trailer up 6/21.

[@tommcl386]

I have an update to my Hide a Spare. I had the same issue after last years dealer mod. What I discovered is Surveyor installed the wrong model for the Hide A Spare. They installed the version for TT that doesn't have an enclosed underbelly. Tomorrow I will be calling Surveyor. Obviously the dealer didn't know the difference. I will keep you posted.

FYI I know this video is 2 years old, but if you purchase a mattress from MatressInsider and get the Luxury RV option, which is the top of the line one, it's $100 off right now, PLUS you can ALSO use the KYD10 code and get an additional 15% off the base price. So I saved $185 on an RV King just now! SWEET! Thank you KYD!!!!!

[@jmorgan32355]

This is the exact trailer we are considering. So these videos are awesome! Plus we have the same truck. Keep the upgrade videos coming!

[@markrash5793]

I really like and appreciate videos like this. Thanks!
