Thanks for being on guard. Mossey

The post I replied to has disappeared. ??????? Mossey

My 2017 LE2 battery tray is W 14.25" x L 21" and the LifeBlue spec's the 200AH LB12200-HC at W 6.6" x L 19.0". And looking at the picture of the LifeBlue batteries in the LE2 battery tray on the options page, I don’t see how a 3rd battery would fit in the tray. Mossey

Has anyone looked at this option? Since I have a old 1000 watt Xantrex inverter, I think I’ll play around a bit. After all 7.5 amps of continuous output could be useful to recharge the batteries. https://cargenerator.com/ Mossey

Thanks Dave for the great idea. Dang, it looks like I’m in 3rd place this time. I also found it at NAPA for $2.69 and that puts me in 1st place😊 Mossey

That I don’t know and won’t have the answer until I need some.😅 That being said, in the new Covid world, I am doing more online shopping than ever. I usual start with Amazon, but I have learned that at times and for certain products there are better prices and service elsewhere. So I have used HD more often recently for online orders and since they are 4 miles away, I have ordered items shipped to the store for pickup. And Lowe’s is 6 miles away. And once again, Sherry is faster than I am.👍👍 Mossey

Looks like HD has it.

I received an Oliver sighting report from Fairholme Campground on the western shore of Lake Crescent on the Olympic Peninsula. Hope your having fun because we had to cancel our June visit due to Covid. Post a picture or two if you can. Mossey

I would also say thank you to the Oliver Travel Trailer owners and employees. After all, they are really the reason for this forum’s existence. I would also extend a shout out to the forum moderator's, who are always present to offer guidance to all who seek it as well as their collective expertise. Mossey

You keep the penance and I’ll do 3 Hail Mary’s instead. And it will be more beneficial to all. Mossey

We all have to figure out the best methods of Ollie living on our own, as everyone’s needs are different. Mossey

I admit to looking it up. And I just erased everything else I had to say on the subject and I'll put it in the same file as the first response I wrote last night and didn’t post.😡 Mossey

Jairon, You have an interesting idea. But as someone who bought a standard bed LE2, you will spend a lot more time moving cushions than table legs. Granted there are only 2 of us and not 4 unless we count the dogs. We eventually opted for the twin bed conversion and gladly put the large dining table in storage. Mossey

Overland, thanks! Dean, no I am not sure it would fit. I have never had my toilet out, but they are pretty standard. But you have the toilet out and you could measure from a straight edge across the bottom to the toilets flange and compare to another RV toilet. Have you removed any of the flange mounting screws or bolts?

You still use a wax ring to seal around the rubber funnel and below the blue flange. It’s doesn’t require glue. And I find that it reduces wax ring blowout do to plunging. Did you remove the flange when you removed your black tank? Are the mechanical fasteners nuts and bolts or pan head screws? Mossey

Edit: 4/29/2022 After removing the broken closet flange in my Oliver I can say that nothing in my response below pertains in any way to the Oliver closet flange and toilet installation. I have replaced a few toilet flanges in wood and concrete floors and this is the replacement flange I prefer. https://www.danco.com/product/hydroseat-flange-repair/ I have removed broken PVC flanges but not ABS. I doubt there is much difference. First thing I do is to stuff a rag into the pipe with a string or small rope attached to prevent debris from falling into the tank. Then I use a Dremel tool to cut the top part of the flange off and then use a small hacksaw to cut the inside of the flange in about 20 places so the pieces I am trying to break off are much smaller, requiring less force to remove. I think the black tank is pretty strong but I haven’t beat on one with a hammer so I real don’t know. I think breaking the tank riser would be catastrophic. Or you could just put in a composting toilet. Mossey

Thank you Sherry and Overland! I know that I found this dross very useful and I’m glad I didn’t respond last night. It might have been perceived as snarky. Mossey

I would if we dumped your tools. Or maybe even Steve if we dumped his spare parts and tools.😉 Mossey

I knew I shouldn’t have said that, but I couldn’t resist😇. Mossey

Is the Options selection a Moderator only option? I don’t remember ever seeing that before. Mossey

But you and I know that the ole Harley dog is worth it. Mossey

Mod note: This topic has been split from another thread, but hopefully it's still possible to understand the point. The question arose as to how to "quote a quote." The quote button below a post only picks up new text added by that poster, not anything that is within a quote box that is already quoted . To include some text from within a quote box, select the copy, and click on the black "quote selection " that pops up near the end of your selected text. Hope this helps. Mossey, sorry for messing up this post, but editing yours is the only way I can keep the posts in order. Sherry I think the problem with trying to quote my last posting is that it is your post that I quoted and then edited. I’m not sure of that but it’s my best guess until I try it. Mossey

Russell, If that’s a double bowl sink, Overland is going to have to remodel the kitchen.😄 Mossey

You are right, it is Coy and the website is below. https://happycampersolar.com/about-us Mossey
