RE: Tail Wagging the Dog

It may not be your toad at all. If you have leaf spring suspension, you may need a panhard bar to keep the chassis from moving sideways over the rear axle. Or, if you have coils, the panhard bar already being used to control sideways motion may need new bushings.

RE: Wrangler Tow

Check out this link billarf wrangler tow. Written for 2007 JK, but should translate well to 2009 JK.

RE: HD TV

Two new HD LCD units - one in LR, one in BR. Look better and weigh much less.

RE: Direct TV without HDTV

If you're describing this correctly, you're saying that you have a single receiver connected by coax to your dish and you want to run 3 TV's off of it. If so, no matter how you connect them, they will all be displaying the channel that is selected on the receiver. In order to have 3 independent TVs, you need to have a receiver connected by coax to your dish for each TV.

RE: Workhorse Brake Failure Update

The bell crank assembly on the 2003 units does not have the zerk grease fitting to lubricate it. They have to be taken apart to apply grease which will allow it to move freely. I believe that in 2004 they started installing a zerk fitting on the bell crank shaft to make it easier to keep the bell crank moving freely. You can do this job yourself fairly easily. Just drill a 1/4" hole into the outer bell crank housing and install a self tapping zerk fitting. Then grease it each time you change oil and service the chassis.

RE: Any damage towing an automatic in neutral?

A search for "S-10" in the dinghy towing forum turns up all this info S-10. Maybe your answer is already here.

RE: 2003 Bounder 35E Workhorse dash

Same status on my Southie. My guess is that they are not lit.

RE: Onan Won't Run

If it was a gas generator, I'd say the carb is varnished up and needs to be broken down for a thorough cleaning. That's the way mine acted when I let gas sit too long in the carb. I don't know what happens with diesel if it isn't exercised regularly, but the injectors may be something to look at.

RE: towing jeep

I did a search for billarf (expert JK Jeep tow-er). Here's a link to much JK informaion Jeep JK Tow. Don't try to set yours up like a TJ (97 thru 06). They are not the same.

RE: Replace a TV

The original spaces for the 26" CRT in front and the 20" CRT in the BR are perfect for a 26" LCD and a 22" LCD, respectively, along with space for a DirecTV receiver mounted below each TV. I used the original maple moldings, routed them out to fit the new TVs, fashioned the mounting devices to hold the TVs in the moldings, and mounted them each with a continuous piano hinge. Gives me access to the space behind them to store soft stuff. The TVs have ridden around for two years with no sign of any problems.

RE: Need help w/rear TIVO-Directv

Another question. We have the receiver hooked up to the rear tv but now cannot watch the front tv. How do we watch both (understand we have to watch the same channel with only one tivo box) tv's at the same time?You can split the output from the Tivo with a standard cable TV splitter and watch the same channel on both TVs. If you want to watch different DirecTV channels on each TV, you will have to hook up a receiver for each TV. To do that, you need a separate coax feed from your dish for each receiver. I have a PDF diagram of how I did it in my coach. PM me with your email address and I'll send you a copy.

RE: Towing equipment

Online from a dealer on eBay and installed everything myself. Back in 2004, it all (including the Apollo brake unit) came to about $1700, plus shipping.

RE: How to correct leaking hydraulic fluid from leveling jacks

If you have PowerGear levelers, their website has a load of technical documents on the product. This link list all their docs for Holiday Rambler hydraulic levelers PowerGear.

RE: What gear to put toad in when towing?

1999 Jeep Wrangler1999 Jeep Wrangler is a TJ. They are equipped only with 4WD and a manual transfer case. The transfer case should be in neutral and the manual trans in any gear or the auto trans should be in park. The reason is that you need to keep the trans output shaft from spinning via friction from the transfer case, in which case the bearings get no lubrication, and will burn out.

RE: Directv receicer/dish question

A Directv HD receiver used with a Winegard crank-up single LNB dish will pick up the SD channels from sat-101. A Directv HD DVR will not.

RE: "Nasty attitude" on RV.net

I agree with everyone who has suggested that the questionable behavior we see on this forum reflects how the general attitude of our population has shifted over the past few years. IMO, the top-down popularity of the "shoot first, ask questions later," mentality is constantly being touted as the American way. This attitude shows in our conversations, our behavior on the highway, and in the way we treat others in general. I don't think you can place the blame on teenagers and young adults. Their actions reflect what they see.
