Re: 4D Battery Deals?

I'm confused about batteries. I keep reading that you need one type of battery to start, and another to run the house. When I look under the rig, I see 2 batteries and they are wired together. I...

Re: Penthouse Ceiling Retrofit

Thanks!

I think the dip is probably close to 7/8 of an inch. So this sounds great.

I was thinking of drilling holes in the first layer of plywood, although that is the thin layer in your...

Re: Winter tires - locker - LSD what works?

Update on the blizzaks. Turns out we got no more snow the entire year. This was a bad year for skiing. However I did get caught in a nice blizzard driving back from ohio to seattle. I don't think...

I am experiencing a very leaky roof. I cannot tell where it leaks from. The top of the roof has a lot of hairline cracks. Are they the source? The roof also is a bit saggy, sagging an inch when...

Re: Tire inflation system to get in my darn garage

So what i'm hearing is.

NO.

Oh well. A tarp it is. I would like a dry heated area to work on it. I guess that is not happening this year.

The pop top was leaking. It stopped raining for...

Re: Tire inflation system to get in my darn garage

If the roof didn't leak and i didn't live in north bend, WA which rains even more than Seattle I'd consider leaving it out in the rain! It just bugs me that I have a 3 car garage and only one car...

Re: Tire inflation system to get in my darn garage

My rig is 91 inches with the 285/70r17 tires. They have 8 inches of sidewall. So I probably can lower the car 4-5 inches only. The garage door is 81 inches tall. I probably need 14 inches to make...

Tire inflation system to get in my darn garage

Are there any tire inflation systems that I don't have to get in and out of the car for? I am thinking that if I could lower the height of the car by 6 inches I could get into my garage. I think...

Re: Winter tires - locker - LSD what works?

Ok, i just bought the blizzaks. I was torn between the duratraks with studs and the blizzaks, but the bliazzaks were waaaay cheaper. I have had good luck with them on my cars, too.

Re: Winter tires - locker - LSD what works?

Thanks for all the tips. I think the 800 bucks for Blizzaks is worth every penny of what this last mile to my house could do to the doomsday mobile. I live in north bend, Washington now.

So what...
