  1. Mdavis, Just make sure that you wired them the same as your wet cell 6 volts. Tell us what inverter you have . Herman
  2. Here is a good video of replacing a clock spring. It is for a Toyota but still an interesting video. Clock Spring Replacement - Toyota / Lexus - YouTube Herman
  3. Of course you would be searched, you have TEXAS tags on your vehicle. All Texans carry guns don't they know that ? Did the lady declare that the rifle was for personal protection? Would that work for a hand gun, if you declare it for that reason? We are thinking about a short trek into Canada when we go to Minot. If not it will stay home, it's the side arm my father carried for 33 years as a police officer. I would not like to have it confiscated. Herman
  4. BM, When I was in the Navy and traveled back and forth to Newfoundland every 3 months you could declare 128 US oz. every 6 weeks. (1 US Gallon) It may have changed since 1957. At the Officers Club "Crown Royal" was $4.05 per bottle (Canadian equal to US Fifth) Matuse Rosea was $0.25 a bottle from Portugal. Bought many a case to Newfoundland but never got it back to the states, for some reason I can't remember why. Herman
  5. Wayne, Correct. I had issues with getting my 4X4 Silverado transfer case into neutral. Took it to the dealer who found no problem. When I picked up the truck the service writer said he had put the printed instructions on the seat of my truck. Read them and they were nowhere near what the Owners Manual said. Works like a dream now every time (with the right instructions). Herman
  6. My Cummins 400 ISL has a large black reservoir in the back. It has a dip stick on it to check the fluid level. It holds 5 gallons of #46 hydraulic fluid and 3 filters. Herman
  7. Thanks Ray but I always live up to my mistakes no matter how dumb they are. (well maybe not every time) Herman
  8. Dale, Welcome to the Forum. Do you have a "Trip Tec" that displays on the Monitor? If so try punching "VIEW" and see if the screen comes on. Has happen to me several times. I have hit without knowing it and would loose the monitor. If that doesn't work it sounds like it may be time to up grade to a new color camera and monitor. Good luck, Herman
  9. Sue, I believe the recommended Toyo Tire for and RV would be their M144. Just purchased 6 for my coach. Not sure on the Hankook.
  10. Agree with Brett with one exception. I would start with your Cable. With it disconnected check all pins for corrosion (arc burns) caused by plugging in and unplugging with power on. I had the same issue at my home and found that the cable was the culprit. Cleaned the Male Plug and the power was back to level and even on both legs. Easier to start with the simple items first. Herman
  11. No thank goodness just a little oil on the rims. I check the brakes Tuesday when I had 6 new tires. Just have a bit of cleaning to do. Herman
  12. On June 11 I wrote that I would update my results to over filling my oil bath hubs. I am going to need to drain the hubs to get the oil level down. My bad. They both slung oil bad. Now drain, refill correctly and clean my wheels. Herman
  13. I had a Winegard in motion satellite and yes you were able to switch carriers by changing the dip switches. However it stopped working when Dish made changes to their programming. Winegard offered my a Traveler 1000 for a discounted price. I got a remanufactured satellite for $799.00 that installed myself. Very easy and I swear the unit I got was brand new. Steve the one draw back is the 1000 is stationary not in motion you were asking about. Herman
  14. Brian, Bilstein can tell you what shocks to use. Drifting right or left can be caused by alignment (Toe In) and or wind. Here in Texas the wind causes havoc with your steering. I think an all wheel alignment is a good idea. Herman
  15. The camera cable on our Back Up camera looks like a telephone cable and had the same plug. Easy to replace. Tool sold in big box stores. Either plug may be bad. Herman
  16. Ray, Didn't you try jumping up and down on the bumper to see if your shocks were good? Herman
  17. Jocelynn, Sounds like a nice adventure. Many folks here have made your upcoming trip. I myself have not. The one thing I do know is "DO NOT TRY TO CARRY A GUN OF ANY TYPE INTO CANADA" Herman
  18. dr, that is what I'm saying. Just dump the air till the mechanic is able to change out the valve. Herman
  19. Joe, check out Collins Bros. Jeep in Wylie, Texas. Owned by Dennis Collins that you may have seen on the TV show "Fast & Loud. collinsbrosjeep.com 800-699-JEEP(5337) Dennis has Jeeps of all years, sizes and colors. Heck you might even have to come to Texas to get one. Carl would have a field day visiting his store and vehicles. Herman
  20. If you are concerned about the bags leaking while waiting on a mechanic, just dump all the air. You can always start the engine and pump the bag up again. Plugging the dump valve won't stop the leak. Herman
  21. The only thing I dislike about all the new Road Atlas' is the ring binder. It is hard to follow from one page to the adjoining page. But what the hay, someone thought they look good. Herman
  22. Connell1, Welcome to the Forum. Have you tried contacting heavy duty truck service centers? They should be able to help or direct you to someone that does tires for a Large Motor home. Herman
  23. Lots of information on visiting and eating, but let get back on the topic of "Illinois Motor Fuel Tax Violation". Herman
