Tire ware is safety, balance your tires.

Finding it odd that you didn't just flip the pan instead of drilling a second hole. Is it because you wanted a higher hole?

Do you know if Lippert sells the bolts and bushings by themselves without the new equalizer bar?

I'm getting ready to install this exact dryer vent cover and I have 1 question. If you silicone sealed the chrome plastic outer cover to the side of the RV, how do you clean out the hose. My understanding(and no instructions came with mine), is you're😢 supposed to remove those 2 screws at the bottom of the chrome cover, it then slips up and off so you can easily lift up the vent flap and clean out the dryer hose. The butyl tape was a good idea. Any problems.

Does the fridge have dual propane with electric or is it electric only fridge??

All wheels mut be balance!!

What's the weight capacity on those tires? I need something heavy duty

Do a go pro on the set up now going down the road for follow up video

Not really getting the point of this video. I would have liked to see the actual installation process not before and after pics.

I have a 1994 Skyline Nomad that I’ve been going through it and replacing a lot of old things. Mostly with better electric components. I went out to check my shackles and mine have the heavy duty shackles. Those were probably the standard back when my trailer was built. Everything now is built with barely adequate!

Instead of always checking the air in the spare I just carry a battery powered compressor so it don't matter what the pressure is. I will fill it up before installing it.

An rv is no investment, is a very very fun mistake. 😂 everything about them makes you spend money 💰, would make this mistake again lol

Was this a 220? And what kind of dryer was installed?

Did you wire the original switch in series with the new switch ? That would allow you to “lock out” the water heater when it’s empty. I would add a light to the new switch. I’m doing a similar mod to my trailer but will use a 12V relay to do the switching right at the water heater. Actually Suburban do offer that control as an option on their tanks using a relay and a two switch panel to wall mount inside the RV. Amazon sells the relay and panel to upgrade the tank. Your manufacturer saved a couple of dollars buying a cheaper model. Using a relay also avoids mixing the 12V wiring with 110V wiring on that wall. I would have used a proper electrical box and switch for the 110 V circuit per electrical code in case of a future insurance issue.

It might be easier to buy two dish playmakers and two receivers for each tv. You have to buy another receiver anyways.

Thanks ! Great video

I’ doing the wet bolts and new shackles on my 2022 single axle wolf pup. May help a little I hope.

You are so rite about balancing trailer tires.

One thing to minimize the chance for a blow out is check the damn tire pressure before you leave and get a tire pressure monitoring system, they're pretty cheap and most monitor temps so you can stop before you have a major issue.

Im doing this upgrade to our 5th wheel and wondered when you put the wheels back on are you still able to get to the grease fittings the way you put them in, thanks. Our Prime Time Crusader is a 2021 and this is our 3rd rv and my God! Ive spent probably 20 hours fixing stupid things because the dealer we bought it from is 2.5 hours away and they cant even do things right!

thanks for the skinny bought les Schwab trailer tires no warranty .I'm going elsware.Road Armor Equalizer howed that work.l had my first trailer blow out 6/7 /22 . I've got to pay more attention the equipment is sub standard off the showroom floor.i knew that you just want to have fun not get killed TKS Tony TOMA

That hole suspension is garbage the spring hangers are too light and weak side to side motion will crack them there too thin.even those axles look pathetically week..

Observation: You neede to post how to fit 5 people at a 4 person table? Seriously? And required 20 minutes? Thw world was waiting for such a thread?

Observation: A quick gooogle shows "never-fail" bushings are now availeable for many brands of "cushion style" equalizers. I'm a long time bronze guy. Sorry but bronze wear out. I also discovered all kits comes as kits with correct shackles. My kit is Dexter E-Z. Lastly never lift a trailer like that. You will put the axles in an "axle flip" where theskackles flop over. Like his clearly does. He's forced to use ratchet straps fixing a potentially dangerous fuster cluck. One at a time works fine . . . unless you like buying extra jacks and jack stands and bricks . . .and your wife laughs at you. Or the engineer across the street walks over and asks "wtf are you doing ?" and takes a cell phone photo to show back at work.

Observation: No company will seek out this poser for a spokesman. His technical speaking is poor. He was a blue- collar uneducated feller for sure.

what struts did you use?

I don't insinuate any conspiracy..but building Cheap, pretty much guarantees a Money Pit investment. Lol.

I find it moot point to increase the shackle connectors thickness when the original is the same thickness as the spring hanger that you are not thickening. Forest River did not design these axels or suspension system so to blame them is not really fair either. They only support 7000 pounds per axel on a trailer that does not change in weight that much.

not all new RV's have the 'plastic' bushings and paper thin shackles out of the factory. My 2020 Montana 3741 FK came with the upgraded shackles with wet bolts and one of the best equalizers. I wish they would upgrade the axles to an 8 ton versus 7 even though the trailer max's out at 14,000 lbs, I would like to have that extra security with an 8 ton axle. At least Keystone didn't go cheap on the suspension. Nice that a company would do that.

You can remove filter from bowl , reinstall and still winterize

Gee American trailers have tiny leaf springs compared to Australian built trailers. They just don't cut in in Australia. Also they don't seem to use rock and roll suspension which is strange considering the size of their rigs. This whole set up needs to be upgraded with heavy duty spring, hangers, U bolts to last the life of the rig.

Thanks I lot you did a great review it helps i lot

Great video. I’m having this done in March on my 2021 keystone bullet. I’m glad you mentioned the “cheap ass bushings”. I’m going to make sure they replace them

How much did this reduce your weight carrying by?

Nice Job and Thank you for Sharing! Cheers from Toronto, Canada.

Totally agree....Lippert has probably killed people being broke down on the highway from broken springs and hangers. I don't understand their cheapness. Charge us the extra $20 it would take to do it right! Wish another company would try to compete with them.

Please also note the exterior switch is there only to make sure you turn off the water heater everytime you empty it for maintenance and as nothing to do with its normal operation. Like I said leave it there. If you want to control the water heater from inside install the kit switch and 12 volts relay. Please update your video as well.

You didn't show where you spliced the wire and how you routed it through the water heater. The best way to do this is to leave the original switch and wire the switch inside the coach at the junction box at the water heater (at romex connection). This leaves water heater in stock configuration and makes it easier to replace if you ever need to.

You guys rock! Thanks for the great ideas!

Do these really work? I mean it still is an equalizer connected to the frame by one bolt. You will still get movement from side to side same as stock metal equalizer. Is there really enough force to activate any Dampening from the rubber. There is also movement in the shackles as well. Initially I thought about purchasing but videos I have seen of them in action made me second guess them. What can you say to convince me they are worth the near $300 asking price ?

put some antiseize on that twist knob bolt. Mine got rusted and is now impossible to get off.

Need more videos !!

I agree with you. The bronze bushings purchased in bulk would cost the company very little to do it correctly the first time

I have my Polaris Rzr 900 EPS Trail 50 Terrabites tires balanced... the tire dealer thought I was nuts! My Rzr is Michigan State highway legal. State Titled as a "Assembled Pickup Vehicle" perfectly legal in Michigan. It runs 55-60mph on the highways. Smooth as silk!

Great video. I would also weld plates on the shackles it mount to the frame.

Why not leave the switch where it was and wire directly on the 110 Volt side inside the panel?

I received mine today and have it all installed already,, and even had Discount Tire Balanced mine too, very happy....

Hello, how many PSI do you put in the air bag ?

I just picked up my new Sabre last week. can you give me the part numbers of what you use?
