  1. Hello Everyone, I have gotten several calls in regards to the axle size and capacity so I thought I would stop by say hello and make an official statement. Hope everyone is enjoying their Oliver camper and travels. The Legacy Elite 18.5' comes with a 5200lb 12x2 axle that is derated to 5000lbs because of a spring measurement that is 3/4" outside the norm for a 5200lb axle. This is the reason why the GVWR for the Legacy Elite is listed at 5,000 lbs. This axle does have the 12" brakes and 6 lug. The Legacy Elite II is currently being built with dual 3500lb. 10 x 2.25 axles putting the GVWR at 7,000 lbs. The brakes are 10"brakes and 6 lug. Some of the earlier model Elite II trailers were built with the 5200 lb. axles as well as a few models that were produced during November 2014- December 2014. This short run was because Dexter had derated it's 3500lb axle that we were using for the Elite II. We immediately ordered the 5200lb axles during that short run because we chose not to use the derated axles and only switched back to the 3500lb axle once we could get it without it being derated. The website is incorrect where it states 12" brakes on the Elite II page and I will make sure that this gets resolved. With dual axles and 4 brakes it isn't necessary to have the 12" brakes. - Hope this helps, but if anyone has any questions, please feel free to give me a call. - Jason
  2. This is a great question and one that many of our customers have started to ask. To access the plumbing under the bathroom sink you would need to cut away the caulk from around the vanity. Once the caulk has been removed you should be able to pull the vanity out. *CAUTION - DO NOT try to pull it out with the caulk still in place. We use 3M 4000 caulk which is a semi-permanent caulk and it will rip the gelcoat if it isn't cut before removal.
  3. Hello everyone! Rally time is getting closer. We have about 13 trailers that can be here for our 1st Oliver Rally. This Rally was put in place with very short notice and I know that many are unable to attend due to other pre-planned arrangements. Hopefully we will get another Rally on the books sometime next year and have at least 6 moths planning so more people can make it back to Tennessee. We will have some people joining us for the rally that are not currently Oliver owners but are interested in seeing the Ollie in person. I wanted to let everyone know that we will be providing your meal Friday night. It will be sandwiches and finger foods. We will be getting together there at NACO at their Town Hall for a meet & greet and food. We will also be in Town Hall Saturday morning for a Pot-Luck breakfast and ask everyone who can to prepare your favorite breakfast food to share with others. NACO has some great activities planned as well for that weekend so those of you who enjoy football can take part in their Football Fanatics party during that weekend. We will also be doing a drawing Friday night for some free giveaways. Our 2017 Inventory Demo will also be on display that weekend for everyone who would like to walk through. We have added as many options to the unit as possible so you can see what each option looks like on the trailer and how it operates.
  4. As try2relax stated, this change will not improve water pressure in any significant amount. However, we have changed our diverter tee out for one that allows for greater flow thru and during testing found that it did help increase water pressure. This change was also implemented in the 2017 model. I haven't heard of many customers having a water pressure issue but we continue to review our processes and continue testing to always see if there is a better way because we want to make sure that our customers get the best. I would like to hear if anyone has experienced any issues with water pressure.
  5. We have modified our plumbing system for the 2017 models by eliminating our 90 degree elbows eliminating potential water leaks. We haven't had any issues with water leaks but we are always looking at how we can make the Oliver better. We are now using pex bend supports. We have also started using a different diverter tee which allows for greater flow.

  7. I'm sorry to hear that so many people are having issues with the radio/tv setup. This issue has been addressed and we shouldn't see this issue moving forward. If anyone goes through what has already been suggested here and continues to have issues, please give us a call.
