  1. They do the job on our trailer.
  2. Congrats from Hull #1045, Jolli Olli. Happy Camping.
  3. We have a daily interior clean-up. Amazing the amount of dog hair that comes out of the vacuum. We have 3 small shower rugs that I take out and brush off. Shake out Fiona's bed sheet, and also brush off the L.L. Bean waterproof mat at the door. 5-8 minutes out of our day. The heater exhaust vent is the first thing my wife vacuums. She does the interior cleaning. Once a year I wipe down the inside fiberglass and use the wax mix TopGun shared with the group.
  4. New Will Prowse YouTube Video is out. I can't get it loaded. Here is the YouTube post page.
  5. Nope, and these tires are on a list of "China Bomb Tires", thinner sidewalls, tread delamination, and blowouts
  6. Apparently, Oliver has now switched to the Chinese Tires. This has been confirmed by a reliable source.🙃
  7. Brand new trailer picked up last week, but don't know it was a Dealer or Hoenwald.
  8. Brand new owner discovered Chinese made tires on his new trailer. Castle Rock Tires. Oliver has stated they are installing Goodyear Endurance 15", 10-ply "E" Rated tires. So how does a Chinese tire end up on a brand new Oliver trailer? Chinese tires have resulted in hundreds of blowouts on stick built trailers where everything is cheap. This is strange. I told him he needed to reach out to Oliver asap.
  9. The journey has been fun😊
  10. We have a fairly steep driveway, and the front is way up to get the trailer level. It works fine. I ordered a new foot plate from Barker.
  11. Ball was greased. I used a grease remover and cleaned it completely up to a nice shiney chrome finish. I took a number of photos and sent them to a tech at B & W and he didn't see anything strange on the ball.🙃
  12. B & W Stow and Go with marked 2" & 2-5/16" on the top of each ball
  13. No pictures. Trailer is back in storage. After a day processing, we are sure the trailer was secure on the ball. My wife directs me back and when we have the ball where we want it under the hitch, I lower the hitch. Once I know it is seated, I squeeze the lever and slide the slide closed. With it closed, I turn to my wife and we give each other Knucks and she hands me the pin to insert. After the incident and getting the front raised, I pulled the pin and opened the hitch. The bridge joint was a hard impact. It must have shut our dash cam off, or leaving it on when I went to the store and left it on overnight may have errased it. I wonder if this was a combination of bad bridge joint, new Alcan 5-leaf springs, and wear or issue with the 2" Bulldog. I'm not willing to go through that again. Requested pricing from Oliver so I can have them ship the 2-5/16". When I pick up the trailer, I will be taking roads less traveled straight to my Truck Service place to get it replaced. I may ship to Bulldog to have them determine what may have caused the failure.
  14. In process of getting the 2-5/16
