The door is 12'wide by 14' tall, I was a tad out of square on the rough opening. But it is close enough.

I have been traveling too much for work again, so I am behind on the wiring on the barn. I need about 3 days and I will be able to get my final. We decided to go with a separate meter rather than try to feed underground from one of the other two meters. I think it will pay off in the long run. We now have 3 sets of 200 amp service on the property.

Ok guys and gals, this seems to be the expert page on concord. I have a 2016 ds purchased used 2 years ago. It was owned by a 92yo who traded for a 40foot pusher.? Did not take good care of this rig, but we have it I spected,specter, good price. We use it alot. Snowbird in az. I have several issues I do not see addressed...so, here goes, help me if you can.

1. Raised the levelers in the back the last inch available and bought new airbags. I still hit the road on inclines. Thinking about adding wheels...anyone done that?

2.where is the water pump? I think I need to change it. It sounds like a plane landing...is yours loud?

3. Has anyone replace the fresh water inlet? I bought one, bot it seems they are made very cheap, and with the hole at the connection on purpose? I would like to replace with brass.

This is enough for now, I have learned alot reading this thread. Thank you in advance!

1. They will drag on steeper slopes, there are a set of skids built-in for that purpose.

2. I believe the water pump is under the fridge area, there is an air return there that needs to be removed to access it. Your drain-down valves for the water system are there too.

3. Haven't gotten there yet. I am considering a quick disconnect if I do.

Happy RVing. We love ours and have no regrets after 5 years of ownership. We will be heading out this year for some longer trips with 3 adults and a 60# dog. It will be fun.

Thank you for the responses. I do have the skids, but the levelers still hit. Where did you purchase the wheels, and where are they attached?
