Yep! It's not far from home for us and we get over there every chance we can. Getting a reservation is the hard part!

Any of you owners of pre-shutdown Ollies with the retractable power cords have to replace the retract button? Mine just got stuck in the on position and I had to cut the power wire to it to shut it off. Looking for one with a rubber weather proof cover if possible to keep the water out, which is what I'm sure caused this one to fail.

For those interested, the new Hughes Power Center has finally been released. They've combined all the features of their Watchdog surge protector line and the Autoformer into one unit. Looks very interesting, though the retail price is pretty steep at $819. They also eliminated the "Autoformer" lable, probably due to confusion with it being an "Autotransformer", which it is not. https://www.powerwatchdog.com/voltage-boosters

Looks like you have the 5200lb axles with 3500lb springs just like @ScubaRx said all the 22 and newer LE2's have been built with.

Thanks for this! I'll be installing a Pioneer myself in the near future and it's good to know that I can use this thermostat with it.

And pack whatever you can in the Ollie if you're running up against your payload limit. 100 lbs packed in there only adds 10-15 lbs to your payload.

I *think* the Pioneer/Greenland/others? show the max watts of the unit running at full capacity which in our small insulated spaces probably won't be very often. I also think that in a few years nearly every new AC unit will have invertor tech and those manufacturers who don't employ it will quickly be left behind.

Yep, and I've triple checked it. Hull 45 was the last trailer sold prior to the shutdown and was built with leftover 5200lb axles used on the LE1's. There aren't any of those on the list but I'd bet all of those early models have the same measurements.

The person that I know that changed his took the part number off the bearing and had Summit cross reference it. That's the same route I'd take if I were going to change them out. That's also who told him the Dexter bearing cross referenced to some passenger cars.

If adjustments didn't fix it the only other thing I can think of is a vacuum leak and closing the choke could be compensating for it at idle. Could also just be a bad carb, but two in a row doing the same thing?

Did you try pulling the idle jet out and cleaning it with a small wire and carb cleaner? Edit to add link to video. Helped a friend with this and it worked out great. Simple Fix for a Surging Honda Generator

I wonder if it would be possible for them to relocate the center alignment hole on the spring 1/4 inch on each side to make up the difference?

I have the EZ lube 5200 axles but never use the EZ lube feature. I could be wrong, but I don't think they're any different than the old school axles other that the grease fitting on the end the drilled section to allow the grease to flow to the bearings. If I were forced to use a Nev-R-Lube axle I would pull the factory bearings from the get-go and replace them with high quality Timken bearings. The bearings used the Nev-R-Lube hubs are the same used in some production cars and I would expect them to go at least 80-100k without any issues. Could be wrong there too though since a loaded LE2 weighs a lot more than production cars do...

Rode my bike for a long stretch of that road a few years back during the Trans America Bike Race. Beautiful views and fairly light traffic.

I'll be picking one up for sure as soon as I see the price drop a little. I really should have picked one up when they were in the $1,200 dollar range based on the inverter technology alone... One thing for certain, the second I buy one another even more efficient one will hit the market!
