Fan-Tastic Vent Hook-up

Does a Fan-tastic fan have to be completely hooked up and anchored before it will activate? There are only basic instructions that came with the fan and nothing about other possible procedures. I...

All the hardware is good. What I need is the track that is above that suspends the door. The "rail" that the door rides on is starting to split and will soon have to be replaced. So far no luck...

Pocket Door

By reading other blogs about pocket/sliding doors and after more thorough investigation I now see how it might be possible to remove the door without having to remove walls etc. I'll try it as soon...

Pocket Door

Anyone out there have a pocket door in their GS? Mine is starting to split the tract that it rides on. I would like to do the repair myself rather than be soaked with a big bill. The pocket door fits...

I've seen RVers attach a trailer hitch to the front of their vehicle then buy a rack to slide in that was able to carry up to four bicycles. I did ask one person who did that and was told that he...

Flipping axles

Well someone has been lied to. With my 29' GS, the tt was sitting too low and was dragging on the ground every time I pulled into an inclined drive. I took it back to the dealer, he sent it to a...

There are so many problems with with Forest Rivers RV's that I wish we could all hold them accountable for their lack of quality control. It seems as if they crank out their RVs' assembly line...

Front Loaded Bike Racks

Look the other way. Hitches can be mounted in the front of your RV. Many bike racks are made to carry up to four bikes. The bike rack will then fit into the front hitch. However, I don't know if...

2009 Surveyor 304 Tire and fender issues

Try having the dealer flip the axles. This is a common practice and it will raise your trailer 3" above the tires and from the ground. That might solve your problem. The trailer will ride higher...

RASwift

I had my slide-out "fixed" by a RV repairman. He said the same thing you did. The problem is poor design. The frame as designed is aluminum and because of the weight of the slide-out the aluminum...

Bike Rack

Don't do it! I did and before I got out of town I was dragging my bike on the freeway. The Tire rack assembly is not strong enough to support a bike. You can install a receiver hitch to the front...
