What's the purpose of the big valve on your sewer ? Do you dump grey and black at the same time?

If you have a trailer with long pipes and not much of a slope like mine you may get some extra goodness collecting at the cap after everything is closed. I am going to buy one too. To get mine totally clean I'd have to sit there with the internal sprayers going for a bit. Prob take 1/2 hour to dump and clean everything. My motorhome was quick and easy. My trailer is more time consuming

I know of people who think it's funny to open ur black valve fill the line then close it......

My main purpose is I run a macerator pump with a clear flush attachment.
So i can close outlet valve then turn on fresh water and flush clean water threw pump and discharge hose.

Just ordered that valve on amazon literally 2 minutes ago lol.

Nice!
Anyone have a tire pressure monitor system on their trailer / motorhome?

When i picked mine up, they had a trailer in service that blew a tire...he said he never noticed until the panal where coming off.... it looked nasty!

some cheap ones on eBay but you need a repeater /booster to pick up signal .( Most motor homes are too long , never mind a trailer )

also get a 5-6 monitors for spare tires .

Im sure if ya shop around u will find them cheaper than woodys! They are a new product so it might take a bit before someone sells a cheaper knock off

Camping World sells them: http://www.campingworld.com/search/...partial&Ntk=primary&Nty=1&Ntpc=1&Ntt=rv+steps

These are the way to go for trailer tires. Crappy tire has a cheaper version as well.

Is there a monitor device for the sensors? Or how do they work?

I made this storage compartment under my trailer. Used cannonball track for the rollers. Great for all the dirty stuff to store.

I welded brackets on back bumper for a aluminum storage box, also put grease nipples on dust caps.....till I get bearing buddy's, put better axles on, added extra battery, step mod is next!

Picture looks a little deceiving. There's still lots of clearance. My trailer sits quite tall.

imdoo'n · Jun 20, 2017

ya pic looked like you only had an inch or two clearance. which really would limit where you could go.

Well I'm gunna try this TPMS

And this observation camera. My trailer is pre wired for power and bracket at the back.

Wife picked up the magnet door stops today before we came out. Prob install while camping this weekend

We have a bunch of the magnetic door stops in our house (from Lee Valley).
Nice for holding the garage door open when you're carrying stuff in & out & also for keeping the wind from blowing the doors shut.

the_real_wild1 · Jun 23, 2017

I was in the trailer the other day and forgot I needed one for the garage door in my toyhauler as well. I alway have to prop it open

Dooitorbust · Jun 23, 2017

Not a fancy mod by any means but my kids love it.

OVERKILL 19 · Jun 28, 2017

Update fyi, the observation camera works great, I can drive around block unhooked from trailer and not loose reception.
Only downfall is my trailer came prewired but they wired it direct to power source, so it's on 24/7 or till batt dies. So next will be install a switch or see if i can tie into the marker lights

I'm looking for ideas for a screen door on my side door of my enclosed trailer? Anyone?

the_real_wild1 · Jun 28, 2017

The easiest and maybe cheapest would be one of those magnetic screen

kingkris06 · Jun 29, 2017

Seen thease spare tire winches on cargo trailers , might have to install one to keep spare out of the way .
