  1. I looked on my 7710 and didn't see an antenna jack.
  2. Just make sure that the brake tank for the toad is a totally separate tank, It will be small about a 1/2 gallon in size.
  3. I have the jet pack which is $50/mo and we run 2 laptops on it. Have not taken the full 5 gig yet, have had it for 2 months.
  4. According to the chassis mfg the air system is not to be tapped into, which is regulated by the federal gov. It needs a separate air tank and a proportional control valve to regulate how much air goes to the toad brake.
  5. I have been using Sta-Bil since the middle 50's for treating fuel that will be stored. 1 oz per gallon for 1 year storage works well. After the fuel is treated and mixed thoroughly you must run the engine to insure the treated fuel is in the complete fuel system. I have winterized thousands of outboard motors when I worked in the Northwest.
  6. When I go only 150 miles from home I use my tow dolly with my Prius which gets me 47-55 mpg. I had the same problem so I made 2 x 6 ramps that extend the metal ramp by 26 inches and a 4x6 block where the two overlap. On longer trips I flat tow my Silverado 1500. I changed my surge brakes on the dolly to air over hydraulic for better control.
  7. I would contact the converter to find out how it was built.
  8. You need a hdmi splitter because I think you have only one hdmi output. You will have to run hdmi cable to each tv, if you don't you will not get a high definition picture. If you opt for a second receiver then you can watch different channels on each tv, and won't need the splitter. Hdmi cable length can be up to at least 50 feet without a booster.
  9. I don't know about your Hydro-Hot but if you coat the o-ring on the filter with vaseline it will be easy to remove the next time.
  10. That is correct. Support the base and turn the wrench. I've done some really tight ones.
  11. My friend used to haul boats and trailers built in this country to Canada and they will not let you in their country without brakes on all axles. He has had to go back to Indiana to the trailer mfg to have brakes added to the second axle. He did that only once, the next time he wouldn't leave the plant until it had the correct brakes.
  12. In Canada brakes are required on all axles touching the road.
  13. Back in the 70's we use to stay at K marts now its mostly Walmarts and Sam's Clubs. Never have had a problem, most have been along the Interstate.
  14. The revs/mile is set in the engine computer by a person with a laptop and the right program. Cummins or Freightliner dealer will have the necessary skill and equipment.
  15. We belong to Thousand Trails. Can stay 3 weeks in most parks then move directly to another one. No nightly charges just the annual fee, ours is $580/yr. It cost us about $4000 for the plan but we stay in the system for over 100 nights a year. There is no limit and if we wanted to we could stay every night for the whole year.
  16. We used to install that pump in our shop but after some failures and unhappy customers we stopped recommending them. I believe that you should select a toad that doesn't need all that extra equipment to be able to tow.
  17. Also in Canada all axles that touch the ground require brakes regardless of weight.
  18. Just because its lightweight doesn't mean it shouldn't have brakes. If the car becomes separated from the motorhome the car brakes should stop it and hopefully before it hits something which will also stop it.
  19. We went with one other couple and had a very good experience. We could travel at our own pace and spend as much time as we wanted seeing or doing what we wanted. If I do it again I would do it the same way.
  20. They require a ballast. Some are dual beam with an electromagnet that shifts the bulb back and forth, others are single beam.
  21. We did the Oregon and Washington coast this past summer. Stayed at Thousand Trails campgrounds for 2 - 3 weeks each and they are about 100 miles or less apart. Many things to see and do.
  22. What bulb number did you try? You might try HID conversion, they are very bright. I have been using them on all of my vehicles for a number of years.
  23. I use Thousand Trails in Las Vegas on Boulder highway. My annual dues is $585 and I spend over 100 nights a year in the system in many states so that averages about $5 a night.
  24. All holding tanks have a vent. Run a snake down from the roof to the holding tank, there maybe some bends that make it more difficult.
