    Get a bigger impact. My Dewalt is 900lbs on and 1200lbs off torque and it zips the lug nuts off. Of course use it on low when putting the nuts on and torque to factory spec. Heck when my rear truck tire blew I didn’t even unhitch.

    You lose a lot of torque using an extension as well. I would suggest start a carrying a long breaker bar.

    • @fairwindsrv
      @fairwindsrv 14 днів тому

      As long as the extension is properly aligned with the wrench and socket, it won't affect the amount of torque. That's why you apply a little counter torque to keep it all straight.

    Museum seems really cool! Have not been to Indiana in a good 25 years and the roads were pretty rough back then also. Still on the list to visit just not sure when. Not sure this can help but our unit was one of the last -R rigs with the Samsung residential fridge and it came with some really convenient and durable mini bungee cord straps and plastic hooks for the split top doors and the lower freezer door. Almost 12k tow miles so far and have never had an issue with them not doing the job of keeping the doors closed tightly while traveling. Wish I had a part number or resource but I would think if you called GD customer service and asked about them they could maybe get that info to you. Be safe out there!

    • @fairwindsrv

      GD is supposed to be sending us some sort of strap so we'll see how that works. The main issue is that the shelves don't lock into place so we're trying to keep them from sliding forward into the doors. We'll give an update if that fix works.

  • @wademoorefield917

    We've had a great experience with the Dewalt 20V inflator, but we only go to 110, could be worth a try in your quest!

      I've been wanting to try the DeWalt as well, but I'm too stubborn to buy another battery/charging system. 🤣

      @@fairwindsrv 100% valid, I already had some dewalt stuff, so I got lucky, I've also really enjoyed the bigger MAX (or knockoff) batteries on it, I could only get 1-2 tires with the smaller batteries, but can get all 4 with one larger battery.

    Great info. When you replaced the jack, were the lines under pressure? Did you need to bleed the air out after replacement? Is there a fluid reserviour that needed topped off? I'm not a hydraulic expert so I was curious about that system.

      It's not under pressure with the landing gear raised. We lost minimal fluid. The new landing gear came prefilled and apparently there's no need to bleed anything on this system. Sounds like it does it on its own back to the reservoir . I didn't research anything and was really just an extra set of hands. Just following orders on this one. 😂

    Have turned wrenches for 30 years on commercial fleet equipment and very soon will be a certified RV Tech. When it comes to hand tools Snap On, and when it comes to power tools Milwaukee. Milwaukee covers automotive tools better than any other manufacturer and all have a 5 year warranty. Also they make a M18 inflator that I have used for a the past 3 years that will inflate up to 150 PSI and I used often while doing road side service work on commercial tractors and trailers. It’s incredibly good and again 5 years of warranty. Craftsman is a Chinese company since about 2010 or so so I wouldn’t expect much from that brand anymore. Back in the day they were a quality tool company but those days are long gone. We love blue beacon just be mindful to let them know not to use the acidic chemical product that they tend to promote. It’s awesome on etched sheet metal like you might see on a commercial trailer but RVs have an incredible amount of sealants on them from the roof to every door and piece of trim that acidic cleaners will cause to prematurely fail and introduce water intrusion and possible delaminating. No fun… just an FYI. We generally pull through and make sure the wash manager knows “no chemicals”. I knew the Chevy would walk the 390 up that hill!

      I was thinking about getting the Milwaukee inflator, but didn't want another battery charger laying around. I knew the truck had enough power, but we were worried about the gravel. It was pretty deep and really loose. Thanks, again, for watching! We always enjoy reading your comments.
