RE: Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) --- Great add-on
I have had a system for many years on 2 travel trailers and a 5th wheel. I selected the brand because the sensors were the smallest and lightest. I ran them on standard rubber valve stems and never had a problem. I decided to add them to my dually since it had no sensors. That was a mistake. I had them cause a problem with the inner tires on both sides deflating the tires. The TPMS supplier said that they were successful on most valve extensions. That was not the case as I tried different extensions. Apparently the added weight of the sensor creates a problem with the long stem on the inner tires. I have since had metal stems installed but am now reluctant to run the sensors on them also do to their length.
RE: 5th wheel hitch security
A little off the subject but I don't lift the hitch. My truck is too big to fit in my garage however the garage door is large enough for me to back the bed into. I purchased an electric winch from harbor freight and installed two eye bolts into my garage door header and hang the winch from them. I back the truck bed under and raise the hitch high enough to pull the truck out and then lower the hitch onto a dolly and wheel it around. Works great.
RE: We attempted to use the service today
I am a member and thankfully never had to use it and hope I do not. Seems the administrator spends an awful lot of time apologizing and looking into the complaints but nothing seems to correct it. Tell Marcus too many people are not happy. If you are not happy Marcus is not happy (so he says).
Good Sam App
Answers "Allstate". Called Good Sam and they advised that app not working. I asked if it has been hacked and if my info. is in jeopardy. Contacted them twice and they wont respond.

RE: Jacking up Fifth wheel
I have owned Sunline travel trailers and Jayco 5th wheel. Both manufacturers say jack to the frame with jack close to the leaf spring hanger.
