This is a very good video showing how this unit is supposed to work. BTW, the shoes adjust while braking in a FORWARD direction, not in reverse like automotive drum brakes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2CHjTw9EA0 Dexter document, print and file if you don't already have this info: https://www.dexteraxle.com/docs/default-source/dexteraxle/product-documentation/installation-instructions/059-045-00c_s-amp-l_10x2-25_12x2_nra_man_electric.pdf?sfvrsn=12 My LF brake was grabbing badly, I thought I had fixed it (leaking seal) but now it has returned and I will have to go back into it. Has anyone had problems with the Nev-R-Adjust system over- or under-adjusting the shoes? I am tempted to just cut the stupid cables and go back to manually adjusting them, which is not difficult or very time consuming. At least then I will know then what the shoe clearance is and that should not change other than from wear. Comments? John Davies Spokane WA

OK you got me. I don't know jack about drum brakes, let alone electric drum brakes. Do you know of any good resources online where I can learn this material? Electrical troubleshooting I can figure out but I'm concerned about John's findings, and that I have no idea what he's talking about with regard to what he did. Yeah I can "just Google it" but when you don't know what you don't know, it's difficult to separate the wheat from the chaff. I would greatly appreciate any tips or links to quality resources.

Roguebooks - Over the years I've done a bunch of plumbing repairs but have never been very happy with the process. With plumbing, sometimes you have to really put pressure on whatever it is you are putting together in order to get rid of a leak. Other times just hand tight is the order of the day. One minute the leak appears to be fixed and the next minute it is back again. Water can be frustrating! Good job on getting the problem fixed and for the nice write-up on how you did it. Bill

Here in the mountains of Western North Carolina, this has been the wettest MONTH on record with some areas receiving as much as 30 inches of rain is just the past two weeks. Flooding, mud slides, people killed due to falling trees, etc., etc. The good news is that a break is finally forecast for this coming weekend.

To be clear, I love music, of many genre's, and I also equally enjoy the solitude of just being out "there". I usually get my fix through ear buds, or something similar, and usually when I am exercising. I don't consider sharing a tidbit of my musical tastes as condoning any type of noise pollution. I often find the constant cacophony of noise in the common campsite/rv park overwhelming and a nuisance. Big rigs, kids, generators, the constant back and forth of vehicles are all distracting. And that my friends is why "we" have invested in an Oliver - it gives us what we want in comfort, with an ability to go where the noise makers usually don't. However, to be honest, I do enjoy, at times, some of my selections at very high levels, blasting forth from my barn/garage. Yea, I love old vintage equipment, big amps, great sound! Now, I am out there, in my own little rural world, wildlife haven't complained yet (more distracted by the dog!), and the neighbors are to distant. To each his own - silence can be enjoyable - the following is cool.

I did try the above suggestion, and it did work for a couple days and then back to the steady stream of water. Long story short I got a replacement cartridge and wrote about it on my travel blog. https://cloudssoswiftrv.tumblr.com/post/174398003394/dura-rv-faucetshower

You were almost there Don, you just needed to remove the "{" "}" squiggly lines in the code. The reason I did that is because if I did not add that the website would pick it up as code and display an image instead of the actual code you need. There is an image below the post with how the code should look :)

Hey Everyone..... If you are looking for towel racks, hooks, bins, clips, paper towel holders, tissue box holders, shelves, soap holders, racks.... <stop for a breath>...that attach with suction cups that WILL NOT fall of the walls of your Oliver. Look no further! www.fecausa.com These things are pretty awesome. I am not connected with this company in any way except that Donna bought some hooks and a paper towel rack and they just WORK. It's like they had Oliver in mind when they came up with the idea. Hope you all find this useful. Scotty
