Let me know in the comments below, are you looking to bulletproof the suspension on your RV trailer? If so, why? Have you had problems with your suspension in the past (broken leaf springs, hangers, wet bolts, blown tires, etc.) or are you simply looking to prevent issues in the future?
And would you be interested in the MORryde AllTrek 4000 Kit, X-Factor Crossmembers, Heavy Duty Shackle & Bolt Kit, Sailun Tires or any of the other parts I installed, or would you choose something different?
Also, feel free to drop any questions you might have and I’ll do my best to get back to you ASAP!
I'd like to thank MORryde for providing their product free of charge in exchange for my honest feedback!

    Nice video. I have a Jayco with the Moryde steps, this means I have the bird etched out of the front of the top step. I have a large foot (size 9 women's) and I often kick that bird do to the shallow depth of that top step. Not fun in flip flops. Also that bird is bent and I'm sure I will cut myself one of these days. Thinking about making the chang now. TY.

    This is a great video - thank you!! We have already replaced our theater seating chairs due to the peeling. The originals were less than 3 years old. The sofa is now molting and we'll be replacing it soon. The theater seats we bought are the Thomas Payne fabric rather than the faux leather. Now considering taking advantage of the discount for replacing the sofa - this is the first I've heard of their offering discounts due to the peeling. We had received a discount last year because we were at Lippert attending their RV Owner's School and they had a discount as being an attendee. Definitely will look at the RecPro!!

      There could be a version of the 2118 I’m unaware of, but I believe the DC option also requires propane. So if it says the 12v/DC amp draw is 2.75, that’s how much power it uses while running on propane.

    I have a 2021 Norcold 1210 the freezer is more or less a cooler at this point. There is no change from LP or electric, no amonia leak. Everything ohms out correctly. No idea what is wrong, either I start spending 100's of dollars and replace boards and hope that works. Or just buy residential, since I work on the road and park for 12-18 months at a time. Great video and exactly what I needed to see for the removal. It is making my mind sit easier, if i choose to go residential.

    So here we are halfway through 2024 and still no upgraded model of the Lippert steps?? I can live without the quick release lever for the adjustable legs (although it seems like a good idea). But I do need to have the quick release hinges since I don't always have 4 ft. of space available to swing the 4 step version up and down again. My RV storage lot packs us in pretty close together... I will need to be able to remove these easily just to be able to get into the RV. I will just use a portable step when I need to do that I guess. Definitely one downside to this type of step. Gonna call Lippert Monday to see what's going on with the upgrades that you showed on your video...

      We have an inverter along with a 300 amp hour lithium battery bank which powers the fridge any time we’re disconnected from power. I installed this system when we first purchased our RV so it was already in place when I made the fridge swap. If I didn’t already have an inverter and wasn’t interested in installing one, the 12v fridge would be an awesome alternative.

    I replaced my rv sofa with RecPro recliners and just like you showed in the video, they suddenly started shedding fabric at about 3 years. We had covers made for the backs of the chairs and tried the stick on fabric on the seats. Not an impressive look but it's functional. The parachute chord for one recliner also broke. My experience with these chairs makes RecPro a no go for us in the future. We are going with a company that uses Ultraleather next. They are pricey but high end and will last.

      I totally understand the concern with bad reviews. But I dug pretty deep and realized for every bad review, there were 99 good ones. And those who have a bad experience are usually the loudest. With that considered, a less than 1% chance of dissatisfaction sounded good enough to me. But after 2+ years and thousands of miles we’ve had no problems. Fingers crossed it stays that way!

    Question - if you had it to do over again, would you consider putting the retractable roll-up section on the right side, tucked behind the sink since the sink partially blocks the entrance to the shower. We have the same 3 panel door in our G.D. and typically slide the doors to the right tucked behind the sink when entering the shower towards the left side. Seeing the vertical bracket to clip the door to when closed is much thinner than the other side with the role, I seemed to think putting the roll on the other side would be better, but maybe there is a reason why you had to put the roll on the left or that they are made to only roll one direction (not symetrical)? Thanks!

      Hey Tom. I think it’s purely personal preference, but we like opening the door to the left. When we had the glass doors, we opened them to the left as well. The door can be installed either way, so if you wanted to open to the right, that would be totally fine!

Don't you always get in on the end of the shower away from the water and facuets?", so I didn't know my own wife gets in on that side as she is petrified of getting hit by any water that is the slight bit cold. Isn't life interesting that we all don't think the same way. Now if we install this, we will have a domestic dispute of which side it should roll into... maybe we better keep the doors that can go either way until we settle this. 🙂
