  • Is It Normal For A Hughes Autoformers Voltage Booster To Increase The Voltage To 126-129 Volts
  • I spoke with Hughes Autoformers and they believe in your situation that there's an issue with the circuit board or the relays of your voltage booster # HU57FR and would like for you to reach out to them so that they can take a look at how it's wired and either walk you through rewiring it or replacing it. Their tech stated that you should really only see a 3 volt difference when plugging in the booster and that seeing 10+ voltage increase putting you in the higher range of what's safe...

To install the SureCall Fusion2Go 3.0, you'll need to make sure that you have at least a 12" radius clear from any obstructions to mount the outside antenna. Once that spot is identified, you can go ahead and install the antenna to the roof of your RV following the provided instructions. You'll then need to mount...

  • Is Loctite Required for RV Wheel Lug Nuts
  • In regards to trailer wheels and lug nuts, you should not be using any sort of thread locking compound such as Loctite. It's not needed and would make getting the wheels off for maintenance very troublesome. Instead, you would simply need to torque the lug nuts to the wheel specifications using a torque wrench like the 1/2" Drive Torque Wrench part # PTW3001C. I have attached for you below a wheel lug nut torque chart.

  • How to Install Wiring for Jensen RV Stereo w DVD Player JWM60A
  • The Jensen RV Stereo w DVD Player # JWM60A is roughly the same size as your Furrion DV1200 stereo but you might need to modify the space with some trim to get it to fit properly. When it comes to the wiring the easiest thing to do is disconnect a wire from your Furrion stereo and then reconnect it to the corresponding function on the Jensen stereo. The only way you might consider disconnecting all of the wires at the same time is if they are still labeled correctly. If the labels are...

  • Proper Torque for Trailer Suspension Wet Bolts
  • There are no specific torque settings for wet bolts like the # 126B2. You need to tighten them down until the knurled portion of the bolt pulls completely into the shackle strap and the bolt head runs all the way down to the shackle strap.

  • What Is The Optimum Angle For Shackle Straps To Sit At On The Equalizer
  • There isn't an exact angle to go off of when it it comes to shackle straps, but we try to them to sit in a 'W' shape to allow for the suspension to travel without binding up. Depending on the length of the shackle straps the angle can vary a bit so it's a bit of a guessing game to get it perfect. If you're replacing your shackle straps, equalizers, or leaf springs you'll want to make sure that you properly measure each component and get matching sizes to avoid any issues with the suspension...

  • Can Gate Valves Be Replaced Without Cutting And Gluing In New Fittings
  • The LaSalle Bristol Cable-Actuated RV Waste Valve # 34466N4AB36GM will come with gaskets in between the valve and spigot/hub fittings, which I do recommend swapping over as well as these are the most easily worn components. Doing the install this way prevents the need to cut and glue in any fittings and is honestly way less time consuming. You won't need either hub or spigot fitting since the gate valve is the only thing you're swapping in so it doesn't really matter. We unfortunately...
