  1. We towed our 2012 SRX4 for a few years and thousands of miles with no problems. Just unlock the shifter with engine off and put in neutral. Requires starting the engine every few hundred miles to refresh the transmission lubrication. We have AWD model as FWD you have to use the tow dolly. You can't dolly tow the AWD SRX. .
  2. check to see if you have a inline screen like the one inb the link below. https://www.baldwinfiltersrus.com/baldwin-pf7994-nylon-mesh-fuel-strainer.html?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIiIXgm7zh4QIVBMNkCh3EdQUyEAQYAyABEgILBvD_BwE
  3. If your having trouble be sure to check temperature. By pressing the tech button can check battery and two inverter internal temperature.
  4. This is a example of the settings of my ME-RC 50 Shore Max: 30 AMP Yes I have 50 AMPS but this seems to be the default Search Watts: 5W This should be set to the minimum to turn on inverter from standby Battery Amp Hr: 400 amps In my case I have four 6 volts x 110 amps each = about 400 amp hr Battery type: Flooded There is an online manual if you need more help.
  5. I paid the extra cost for Michelins and don't regret it one bit.
  6. I always give 24 hours before judging temperature of refrigerator / freezer.
  7. As promise, here are pictures of rebuilding the frame and mattress support. Captions will be under pictures The left baseboard has to be installed first. The left baseboard installed. It was taken off to gain access to motor when slide was in. I installed a clamp to wiring to keep them from the tracks and stops. The 120 line got pinched in the stop at least one time. Lucky the wiring wasn't damaged. This is the partition backside to show the frame. I'm using longer screws because the shorter ones pulled out on the right side. With the partition installed, it forms a box for a cover. Cover is installed Damage platform end Start of repair to platform by shooting #8 x 3/4 screws into the edge. Trim on end removed. Trim to be reinstalled after fastening loose plywood. I made a safety prop out of scrap trim even though the struts are strong enough to hold the 12 inch thick foam queen mattress up. Everything is back together except for a couple of touch up.
  8. I check mine as I have a 2006 with adjustable pedals and it has a metal dust cap in that spot. You can probable get similar at the hardware store.
  9. Mine is built different than yours with 3/4 boards and 1/4 luan plywood top and bottom and fake wood plastic trim on the edges. The plywood is held onto the boards with staples and the weak point is the middle feet area. That's probably from my fat butt from sitting on that area putting my slippers on. 😃 I going to take pictures of this part of the project today.
  10. Yes I had many speed clips go bad on vehicles exposed to the weather rusting and stripping them out. I use a small pair of vice grips to get to hold when getting them out. Hopefully there is no weather under the bed. 😂
  11. The bed platform part I'm talking about is made out of wood.
  12. You have to make sure to match the size of the screw. I seen many try a #6 speed nut on a #8 screw. They are backup if the threads don't hold on the wood.
  13. Was just screws but will go through with longer shoulder screws from the outside in and add speed nuts like these. https://www.amazon.com/Speed-Nuts/b?ie=UTF8&node=16410081
  14. The divider inside had screws that pulled out and the platform that the mattress lays on is coming apart in the middle at the feet due to staples pulling. This will be fixed with longer screws and nuts. Also I will be hitting the edge trim with construction cement.
  15. Got the new gearbox a couple of days ago and finally had enough time to install it. It works great but don't have the full weight on it yet. I found the bed frame and foundation to be a little flimsy and going to beef it up. I keep everybody posted.
  16. It's the wasted water not the drink. First year my coach had a freshwater drip. That led to a full investigation by campground officials Indio, CA. They were worrying about the evaporation rate of that drip. I told them that it's recycling into rain. They didn't like that comment.
  17. I follow the instructions in the owner's manual, DW don't. You supposed to work the slides with full suspension inflation with jacks up. Now you know why we have so much trouble with the slides.
  18. That is a shame, we need to know who did this so no one here would go to them.
  19. The defected trailing arms are on the RR4R or R4R with the 4 bag suspension. see link below. https://sourcerv.com/RoadmasterR4R_FMC1109.pdf
  20. Run, before it's too late. jk
  21. It's will be what makes DW happy, I'm just the driver. 😅
  22. There isn't any seals so it would leak out and make a mess under the bed.
