  1. When I did my seat, I found a tiny piece of torn fabric... I didn't want to make it any worse... so I took it to our local upholstery shop that has been in business many years ...he was impressed with the quality.
  2. Started getting TDR magazine in 05 when I got my truck. That's 15 years . Been a member here about four years. Learned more on this site than I did the 15 years with TDR.
  3. History's that you can reach out and touch is great. Further reading... https://www.english-heritage.org.uk/visit/places/hadrians-wall/ Not to many passengers on boat. People maybe staying close to home, Cov19?
  4. Can't help you on your question of a saggy bumper. But those tow hooks look good... Happen to remember where you got them?
  5. I'm glad you posted this. I changed mine and now get low fuel light. But poured 15 gallon back in. Not worried as haven't started truck in 2 yrs now. I'll see what problem is maybe later this summer. Also wondered why elec components submerged in flammable liquid dont go a great big kaboom if ever a spark. Thinking no oxygen?
  6. That's encouraging...I think the phone number I got is his personal cell. My credit card doesnt go thru using his site. Crazy card company... my city was was incorporated over 20 yrs ago, but credit card company's still use old city name. Vulcan keeps screws screwed down tight, as he puts it. Shipping address city doesnt match card address. I have that problem on his site and 2 others. Both instate.
  7. His phone sounds like it's hooked up to a fax machine. But no e mail reply either...unusual
  8. This last week I've tried to make contact with the Vulcan diesel, no such luck. Email to him from his website and calling no responce. Anybody heard from him lately?
  9. Not only ground clearance...I built a camper in mid 90's and had about 2 inches clearance over cab. Had to get more clearance over cab by using plywood in bed of truck. On road was ok but off road was a problem. Scrapes left on top of cab always bothered me.
  10. Wondering... Is there any useful elec test, maybe with volt meter or something to determine if wire is not up to par...beyond visually looking for corrosion?
  11. My opinion...Inspect wire connections, keeping close eye out for a strand of wire that is making contact with near by wire and bleeding elec over where it shouldn't. If no loose wire strands...Google up just like I've typed it dou therm & acservice & pdf Then go to ac section for your model and ...Trouble shoot. Im thinking sencor. But If you have to pay somebody shop rates...hope they are good at trouble shooting because Could get pricey, age of ac you might be thinking about replacement due to shop rates involved and if fixxed. How long till next problem as RV stuff usually not top quality. If trouble shooting yourself manual is quite detailed.
  12. What I would do for next test...in Later part of video to see if fuel is being pumped. (Not about lift pump) .loosen 1 injector at a time, see if fuel is like video, then torque down. Or hot wire vp44...Cheaper than a grand for pump. Beware though, I dont know much about these, just what I would do
  13. Another problem is
  14. What made you folks buy what you bought? Was your purchasing decision based upon price or reviews you read or what? Within the next couple months I'm going to get some and I just can't figure out what would be the best for me.
  15. Deleted...got my numbers mixed
  16. I try not to go over 1250 and also important to me is turbo cool down, I usually don't shut it off until 300 or below.
  17. I got a recall notice in an email..cant figure out how to post it here. So here is link via web. https://www-autoblog-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.autoblog.com/amp/2020/05/20/harbor-freight-jack-stands-recall/?amp_js_v=a2&amp_gsa=1&usqp=mq331AQFKAGwASA%3D#aoh=15901133638321&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&amp_tf=From %1%24s&ampshare=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.autoblog.com%2F2020%2F05%2F20%2Fharbor-freight-jack-stands-recall%2F
  18. Might as well check the killer dowel pin while you're in there
  19. I always get what's called. "Double lip" seal
  20. "the fluidampr weighs a bit more than stock and is a bit bigger in size too." and what I understand the glacier fuel boss has a real hard time fitting in with the fluid dampener, if you have or want one. Not positive just throwing this out there I could be wrong
  21. Thanks for the ideas. Yeah this is an RV, wife would go crazy if I drilled holes in her doll house. Also not sure how much wiggling the mirror would do with a good size light mounted on it.
  22. Thinking about installing large turn signals on towing mirrors, so the people that are beside your trailer, in the other lane and staying there forever...get a big clue to move. How hard do you think it would be to install turn signals on towing mirrors? Wiring. Just tap into wiring? Installing the signals...maybe a simple bracket? All ideas appreciated Thanks
  23. I went to three or four stores a couple years ago looking for some pins better known as hat pins that women used to wear. Last year was in a florist shop they use the same thing for their floral decorations...lady gave me about a half dozen of them, plastic tip works great. Or you can order what's actually called hat pins off Amazon and cost a fortune. I'm not sure if I need pulled into this Century or the last couple decades.
