RE: No gas to stove only
Here ya go. I taped them together as all they did was silicone them in place and they fell off. It's a normally closed solenoid. Place the two pcs together and you hear the valve open. With the two pcs separated the stove will NOT light. The switch was mounted to the arm that raises and lowers the Quartz top.

RE: F250 upgrades
My 2011 RAM has 4,500# pin weight in pic #1. Rides nice and "LEVEL". I added bags and Bilstien's for ride QUALITY!!! I ran 30psi LOADED in second pic. Notice it sets about the same??? This is what I wanted as the bags were only to control the suspension on the ROUGH California Highways.
It rode on the overloads as it should for a nice ride. Some may call this "Squat" and want to raise it to unloaded ride level. NO WAY!!!

RE: No gas to stove only
Does the cooktop have a lid that is fixed at a hinge point? If so the switch may be faulty or came loose.
Please explain this comment. I have 44 years as an RV tech and have never seen a RV cooktop cover that has a "safety" switch. Kind of makes NO sense. To light a cook top burner you have to lift the bi fold cover anyway. Doug
My Mobile Suites has a motorized lift on a switch for the Quartz top because it's HEAVY and it has a switch that closes off the gas when it closes plain and simple.

RE: Mopar M20 Hitch 5th wheel pin loose and clunks
DEMAND a refund and buy the B&W puck hitch. The CURT is an inferior hitch in many ways that's just a fACT along with it being Made in CHINA!!!

RE: F250 upgrades
"The payload sticker is for marketing purposes only and carries no legal weight. The GVWR is meant to give a guide for registration and carries no legal weight."
CORRECT!!!
As stated not likely going to get a ticket for it, just don’t get in a crash and end up in civil court!
I would love to see a case. Example I run WAYYYYY over my GVWR at 16k but at or below my SAE axle ratings. I am licensed for whatever my truck weighs.
Anyone can sue for anything but do they always win???

RE: F250 upgrades
AXLE rating is all that matters!!! GVWR is only there for licensing and insurance purposes plain and simple.
.
you can say that all you want, and it may be true where you live, but up here they will fine you and make you disconnect if you are over your GVWR. now the chances of getting pulled over are slim unless CVSE is doing a blitz and you just happened to get caught up in it. I only know one person personally who has been weighed roadside and I had to come town his 5th wheel home as they gave him an option of getting the ticket or getting someone else to come tow his trailer home (they can do both).
OK, disclaimer "If in Canada better cover your AZZ.....EH" :B

RE: B&W Companion hitch removal
I'm sorry but that B&W comes apart to make two VERY MANAGEABLE pcs. I'm 65 and can easily lift each pc with one hand. I think people need toys for their implements.
you make me wonder when you make post like this....are you suggesting lifting that much weight is really safe? one hand...give me a break!
Ya ,that is a bit silly .:R
I wish people would simply read what i say, NOT what they think I say.

I agree, a pretty bold statement. My longtime forum friend 12V, is a factual kind of guy. I believe he is capable of doing this, or he would not have said he can. I have to say, beyond the capability of most men his age. Being active most of ones life, retains more youthful strength in later years!
As a young man, working my way through school, I worked in a grocery produce department, that sold potatoes in 100 lb burlap bags. I learned to lift these bags over my head, arms stretched straight up. It was not the 100 lbs, but the unstable balance, that made this difficult. I'd make a $10 bet with other store workers, that they could not do this, after I showed them I could. Only one other guy, out of many, did manage it, and I paid the $10.
Jerry
Thanks Jerry!
I like how people read into what I said. I did NOT say standing at the back of the truck lifting it with one hand. I just said I could lift if with one hand and I stand by that statement. If I still had my 20k Companion I would have someone take a pic of me doing so.

Bags can be a good addition especially for ride comfort, BUT you should never inflate them to make the rear of the truck set higher than the front. You DO want the truck to ride on the overloads. I know some disagree but that is what they are there for and keeps the up and down bouncing to a minimum.

RE: How do you measure the ambient temperature?
Our sensor is mounted to the frame behind the steps with velcro. Works great until the Sun is pointing to that side of the RV.

RE: B&W Companion hitch removal
I did say to make that specific hitch in two pcs. YES "I" can do that. Just making a point that the overhead lift is not really "needed" but people like toys!!! Head 70# and base 129#.
