Haha, I knew what that meant without having to Google it.

Just recently everyone’s “avatars” have started showing up MUCH larger. Is it just me or is anybody else having this problem?

This Bimobil rig was parked next to us at Liberty Harbor RV Park just across the Hudson from Manhattan. Wanted to take a look inside but never saw the owners. Looks like Switzerland tags? Tried to pull up the website shown on the top left rear but couldn’t. https://www.bimobil.com/en/

Yes I have it also and mine stays in an enclosed shop when it’s not on the road.
-
Yes I noticed that also Overland and it’s on my To Do list. I have ASI 335 Sealant and ASI 0240 Cleaner on hand, just need to get to it. https://www.americansealantsinc.com/asi-335-neutral-cure-silicone-sealantadhesive/ https://www.americansealantsinc.com/adhesivecleanerandremover/

I agree it doesn’t look good but I guess it’s the best they can do.

Remove the three left kitchen drawers. Remove the plywood panel at the back. See picture for location of the plug. Before you put everything back together move the weighted sink hose so that it is between the back of the drawers and the back wall of the cabinet.

Was the water under your refrigerator area coming from the fresh water tank overflow or from the refrigerator drain? If coming from the refrigerator drain, was it coming out of the tube or from a gap between the tube and the hull?
-
I found the thread on this forum that mentions the split fitting under the basement floor. https://olivertraveltrailers.com/topic/city-water-connection/#post-161513

My overflow tube clamp was loose. The fellows at the factory added this port But if I had it to do over I would have cut the hole myself and made it larger. I’ve got some measurements to make the job less scary if you ever need to cut the hole.
-
There has been a thread regarding a split coupling that will create the leak from the rear street side drain you are describing Hobo. I can not find it on this forum (edit: I found it - see my post below) but I am sure it was on the Facebook page. Look for the post by Tom Cagle on August 12 at 3:38pm on the Facebook Oliver Owners Group.

Suburban Furnace acting very erratic
Townesw replied to routlaw's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
I created this post in response to a request for help on an Atwood furnace some time ago. Don’t know if the Suburban is similar. https://olivertraveltrailers.com/topic/need-help-in-a-really-cool-place-but-no-heat/#post-148492 -

We’ve had #313 since March 2018 and the propane detector has never gone off. I think Overland may be correct:
-
Overland, I’m logged in also and can’t see the classifieds.
-
Is anyone else having problems with the forum? It won’t let me logout. If I try to look at the classifieds I get Error 404. The posts don’t “look” the same. I tried to post this same question yesterday and couldn’t. I am using an iPhone.
-
Thanks Mountainoliver. That’s the best method I’ve seen. Are those 1/2 inch Grade 8 bolts?
-
Dave, I also like what you said about hook attachment to tow vehicle in this thread https://olivertraveltrailers.com/topic/newby-question-hammerlocks-towing-hooks-ford-f150/#post-182187 I’m interested in how you are attaching the chains to your trailer. SAE document J684 states that EACH component be rated, in our case (Class 4), to the GVWR of the trailer. The clevises now used have a WLL of 1.5T or 3000 lbs and I’m looking for a way to secure EACH chain to the trailer with a device rated for at least 6000 lbs. With the hooks (to fit a 2500HD hitch) and chain that I intend to use, the chain to trailer attachment will be by far the weakest part of the system. I understand that WLL is “approximately” 1/3 of the break strength but all we have to go on is what is actually stamped on the device.
-
Are those hooks being held by magnets? Need more info please on how you have those chains secured to the tongue.

Need picture of bathroom without shower pan
Townesw replied to Townesw's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
Sherry and Steve, I’ve sent both of you PMs. -
Does anyone have pictures of the bathroom with shower pan removed?
-
I leave my wheel centers off. It’s much easier to check hub temperatures and adjust the spindle nut if needed after bearing service.
-
Steve, thanks but I’m not interested in yours but it would be a nice unit for someone else. I’m interested in an AH3 with some additional features built in. Be sure to take all your squirrel tails and drop them off at the Mepps factory in Antigo. They’ll pay you cash money for them. Or double the cash value in Mepps merchandise. Can’t beat that.
-
How much weight do you have in the back of your truck? The 250 is an HD truck and the Oliver is a light trailer with a fairly low tongue weight. It might ride better with more weight in the bed. Just a thought.
