RE: Helen ga

We checked on line at RVparksreviews.com If you have camped in that region, what campground did you use and what was your expierence there?? When traveling I've always traveled through the center or gone down the coast.

Helen ga

I am thinking of taking a trip to north east Ga but checking out some camp grounds, the comments on all seem pretty negative. I would appreciate any help and comments on this trip. Is it worth the effort and where is a good place to camp? Thanks

RE: Tow Dolly opinions/recommendations

I have a Demco with surge brakes and love it. I have been cross country twice and all over the east coast Maine to Florida. DW drives the car up on the dolly and then helps unfold the straps. Most people assume they know how to strap one down and when they get loose they blame the dolly. The safety chains are a problem on some cars as there is nowhere close to the front to hook them which means you have to use the a arm. As far as unhooking, use a pull through leave it hooked. Through years of running heavy eqt. I am able to unload the car and back the dolly as if it were a trailer. Wouldn't do it any other way. I can trade cars and never miss a beat no new base plate and no rewireing for brake system I love mine!!

RE: Which car dolly to buy?

Find a used demco with surge brakes. Once you use one, every thing else just doesent measure up.

RE: KwiKee Steps Will Not Extend

I have been through this, take the pivot box apart and grease all pivot points and you will be good to go.

RE: TRIP TO ASHVILLE NC

I'm guessing you will be driveing a pusher and are somewhat new to the game. I also did not notice mention of a toad. First I would not take the coach to Chimney Rock Its tight and not much place to park. If you make it to I-81 on 39 the rest is a piece of cake. 81 to 26 to 40 is the way to go.

RE: Direct tv dish

No problem CT my fault all the way. My son is the tech-know dude in the family. I'll rig up a trypod and we'll play with it before we head south. Thanks to all that replied..

RE: Direct tv dish

Please forgive me, I must have had a brain fart. Both the reciever and the satallite dish are from direct tv so they should be compatable. I just don't know what or how to do??

Direct tv dish

My son helped a friend move afterward he helped remove the direct tv dish. Its a big sucker with 3 lnbs. He has dish tv and can loan me his 3rd reciever. Now what!! What else do I need? How do I aim ths thing? and are there any plans out there to build my own tripod? Just anything you can tell me will help.

RE: buying the correct tow dollie

Look around for a used Demco with surge brakes. You can tow it behind any thing and be legal. If you are handy, check tow-in and adjust brakes. You will be good for the life of the tires. You cannot repack the bearings, I called the factory and asked how to do it and they asked if there was a problem? I said no problem just wanted to do some pm. They were very nice and said if no problem leave them alone. I pulled a ford Tempo for 3 years now we tow a Toyota Rav 4 fwd. Now with that said the Ford was easier to hook up because there was more iron on the front than the yota lots of plastic You hear the na sayers say how hard it is to hook up in the rain, well it rains on people pulling 4 down to. They say you have to crawl on the ground in the mud to hook up, well are there no paved parking lot around? Don't they have an old beach towel? I do.

RE: Parking brake light

Tried that already, plus searched the net only to find bread trucks.

RE: Parking brake light

This thing has the auto-park no lever, no pedel. There has to be a stuck switch somewhere.

Parking brake light

I have a winney 30b sightseer on a workhorse chassis. The parking brake light on the dash stays on all the time. The system works fine other than the light staying on. There must be a stuck switch some where but where??

RE: 2009 Rav4 on a Dolly

The 4 wheel drive cannot be towed 4 down or on a dolly without a lube pump. On the otherhand I have towed my 2011 rav 4 2wd on a dolly from Main to Fla. and never had any issues. Big doors, leg room an 28 plus mpg.

RE: NEED help from oldusedbear???

I don't know where you are but there is a great Workhorse service center just west of Winston Salem N.C. Its Parks Chevrolet in Kernersville N.C. Been there twice and left there smileing both times.

New class a

I am looking at trading my 04 Winney Sightseer for a new class A. What I would like to know: Is an Itascia Suncruiser insulated the same as a nicer pusher? I'm looking at the Suncruiser, a Vista and an Itasca Meridan. Our older RV has foggy windows and is drafty in the winter months. Also, if you own one of the above, what problems have you had with them. I am not excited about the extended sofa. Any input on how comfortable they are or any problems with them? Thanks for your input.

RE: kwikee steps

First let me thank everyone for the replies and apologise for the shortage of information, had a senior moment. Its a winney P-30 Workhorse. The motor seems fine as its trying to retract but keeps skipping as if a gear is stripped. It moves a little both ways and then just clicks. It may be just as easy to replace the complete assembly. What say you??

kwikee steps

Can anyone give me a good website to order parts for Kwikee steps? Mine broke

Trans additive

I have a 2004 winnie on a workhorse P-30 has 46k and runs like a top. Now it seems to shift kinda slow especially when it should go into overdrive. It never slips so was just wondering if anyone uses anything in their trans??
