I now have about 5 inches but when I replace the 14" tires with 15" tires that will drop to about 4.5 inches. Dexter recommends at least 3 inches of clearance.

My 2014 Windjammer went to the dealer today, and they have already ordered a set of brackets from FR to install between the axles and the frame. They said they had not heard of a problem like that until about a week ago, when the first one came back to their shop. Now mine makes #2 at that dealership. But they recognize that it isn't right and promised to get right on it.
Mike are they going to slow you up on the TX.Trip? Will they reset the W/D? Will you (Tower) above the rest of us? Good Luck! Youroo!!

We have a Forest River Flagstaff, 2007, and the day/night shades have always worked great. I have a friend that found problems with his and he took them down and found that a sharp edge on the holes that the strings go though was the problem, Clean the sharp edges and re-string and the problems go away.

We currently have one of the shades on the floor in our V-Lite....still way inside warranty, and will take it in for replacement, but I'm thinking that when warranty is out I'm going to take every stinkin' one of 'em out and put in either drapes (which I'll make myself) or mini blinds.

Those have to be the most rinky-dink, cheap arsed window treatments I've ever seen. As are those silly "side drape" type cloth applications. On the windows behind our theatre style Lazy Boy recliners the metal bracket that holds the bottom of those in place is placed *exactly* where it hits you in the back of your head when you recline.

Do the designers of these RVs ever actually *use* the features they design?
