Here's a demolition derby stunt (video) from a YouTuber up in Canada.
He does a lot of interesting videos, this one included:

RE: Banks Differential Cover
After watch is whole video and flow of fluid, I decided to just stay with the OEM cover, and spend the saved money for something fun to do!
The money saved will pay for multiple tanks of fuel to your favorite camping destination!

RE: Why aren't Truck Campers popular in W. Pa.?
Cost to transport them to the from the western states to the east cost makes them unaffordable to many buyers.
The biggest manufacturers are in BC Canada, CA, Oregon and Washington

RE: Pick up for TC
Christ, If I knew that asking a question would have given so condescending answers, I would have went on a Facebook group. What a warm welcome.....
This forum has a lot of good members, but a lot of rude ones too, as you see in this thread.

RE: Filling Propane While Traveling
My tanks are 30 pounds and weigh 55 pounds when full. All of the exchange places in my area ONLY swap the 20 pound tanks. Hence the question.
Forget the "swap" places.... find a place that refills.
Phone book or Google should result in some Propane vendors.

I'm just the messenger.
Same video came up as a recommended video for me yesterday, but I didn't watch it.

RE: Dexter 7K axle seals
Other axle parts are available from eTrailer.
Etrailer doesn't sell Timken parts when I was trying to buy earlier this year.
Your best bet is to source Timken bearings from a local bearing supplier.
Brown Bearing and McGuire Bearing are two that I use in the PNW

RE: Arctic Fox, camper to truck wiring
Do you mean it is square at the camper side or truck side? I was talking about the end that connects to truck.
It's rectangle at the camper end.

RE: Arctic Fox, camper to truck wiring
Every newer truck camper except the Lance comes with a 7 way plug.
Arctic Fox doesn't come with a 7 way plug, it's a 6 way.
It's a pigtail with bare wires on one end and the plug that mates to the camper receptacle on the other end.

RE: Grease gun/ grease recommendations
As mentioned, a used trailer should be checked/packed soon after purchase.
I have two cargo trailers at the moment. The big one (8.5x20) was is a 2008 model year. I purchased in 2012. The guy I bought it from used it a LOT, for hauling race cars. I asked him if he'd ever repacked the bearings. He said he hadn't, but he pumped grease in the EZ Lube hub periodically.
When I pulled out of his driveway, I manually activated the brakes with my brake controller. I couldn't feel any braking. I kept cranking up the gain setting and ended up all the way at the highest setting where I barely felt any braking action. I knew at that moment there were issues with the brakes.
Once I had time to dig in to the brakes, I found all 4 had blown rear seals. It seems that the "path of least resistance" for the grease it to blow out the rear seal. The place on the axle where the grease exits the spindle when using the zerk, is a small hole partially covered by the inner bearing.

RE: Anyone purchase the new in line 6 Chevy Diesel?
No not yet, however a few on YouTube have and have produced several videos.
This is probably the videos you saw
I found his channel last week and have watched a few.
I can't believe he was towing that long of a trailer with his previous truck, a Colorado.

RE: Gm 2500HD GAS VS DIESEL
I saw a 2020 6.6L gas truck a few weeks ago at Dave Smith.
They are ugly.
