Yup, I just assumed he got the "old" 1 1/4 (or is it 1 1/2") receiver with his 2024 Ollie. My mother always said, assumption is the mother of all "f" ups! š

No worries, get yourself one of these or similar, much studier than that new Oliver 2' receiver!

Under the kitchen sink and behind the drawers
rich.dev replied to Townesw's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
I still have the outside upper vent on my 2023 with the 12V Isotherm fridge, but no more outside upper vent on the 2024s though. My 2023 ..and a 2024 -

I don't have a rear cargo carrier/basket, but here are 3 threads that might give you some ideas.

Here's an earlier thread on same topic.

Yes you have to keep turning it until you feel a click. The light however still comes on when the door is opened, even when the fridge is turned āoffā.

Good question yes!
-
Thatās not good, that means the bottom is bowed/buckled downwards then!

If they havenāt already, they should touch base with Oliver, maybe strike a deal as a supplier!

How to Tilt/angle roof solar panels on newer Ollies?
rich.dev replied to rich.dev's topic in Ollie Modifications
Yup I will have to Jerry-rig a contraption, like @topgun2 said, a really big leveller on one side! š -
I would love to be able to tilt/angle my roof solar panels like @John E Davies did in THIS thread. However, the solar panel mounting brackets on the newer Ollivers are different than the earlier rigs like John's. I'm not sure when they changed the solar panel mounting brackets, maybe 2022? Has anybody with brackets similar to mine (below pics) figured out a way to tilt the solar panels?

What exterior caulk is the factory using now?
rich.dev replied to Townesw's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
HERE'S a nice list of Marine quality sealants. I like Sikaflex products, have used 221 on our Airstream with good results. Has anybody used some of these on their Ollie? -
End of (most) factory service
rich.dev replied to Steph and Dud B's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
šš»is a huge concern for me! Most of the dealerships have a bunch of brands that they have to service, and unless they will have Oliver only ācertifiedā service people their service will never be on par with Oliver. case in point ā¦.. 1) Had an issue with my solar panels not charging, I put a ticket in and within an hour received a call from Hannah, took her maybe 30min to diagnose the problem. Why, because she is familiar with everything a-z related to layout, ie electrical/gas/plumbing etc diagrams, components and component layout. 2) Something as simple as the 3 additional jack fuses under the street side bed, if the dealerships service people (who have to service numerous other rigs) are not familiar with this, could make for a frustrating diagnosis. I would assume (Hopefully) the dealerships will have detailed schematic drawings of all the wiring/plumbing etc. -

Are two accumulators better than one?
rich.dev replied to Snackchaser's topic in Ollie Modifications
Good point, but how do you connect them in parallel? I might be wrong but isn't there only 1 input end and 1 output end? -
Yup the way things have changed with Oliver in the last 5-6 months, anything can still happen....and yes nobody really knows except the Oliver owners, like Oliver being sold to one of the large RV companies like Thor, money talks especially in this day and age!
