Im guessing if it was hooked to my solar charging deal and kept at a full charge that would be OK? Or should I disconnect it from the system until about a week before I go camping? Im not too sharp with this electrical stuff.
I had my F350 looked at, the low pressure switch on the A/C went out. $25.00. Yippeeee!!!

On my Interstate 6 volts, they say to charge them every 30 days if not being used. Like Confused said, I charge them as needed, so in my case around every 3 months or so. Haven't had a problem with them[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Trojan T5 is the "standard" pretty much. But I remember hearing a lot of people getting the Costco Kirkland brands for much less. I'd say check the "local" Costco or a battery dealer.

That is good, definitely wouldnt want that to break free. That would be scary. Does the 13" affect how it feels in the truck bed?
Right now Im planning on being at the shop sat/mon. Hopefully it wont be too hot. I havnt been there too much and need to clean up a little and I have a Jetmoto nerf bar project too. And about 50 other projects when I finish that one. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Are you going to be fixing the jeep this weekend too?

From the looks of his previous jobs and recommendations from fellow customers I know, he is[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] The new 5th wheel pin box will be moving the king pin forward about 13 inches.
I am sure we can. Moving my brother's jeep to my house to help take off the rear axle[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] Not sure what is wrong, but he says that's what we need to do to replace the part that's broke[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

No, it just moves the front of the trailer away from the cab of the truck, so you don't need to worry about turning to sharply other than jackknifing and having the trailer meet the cab[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] Now, the placement of the 5th wheel hitch itself might have a say in how it rides, to far behind the axle and it might effect the ride. I know manufactorers say you should have it center over the axle or just in front of it, this guy has mounted them 1' behind the axle and everyone seems happy with it. We shall see. He definately has an argument for doing it.
Brother hasn't said anything about the jeep[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img] he got the permit for the addition on his house and looks to be busy with that. If your out there Saturday, I might take a drive out there then. Can you PM where it is of the hwy again and what time would be good? Only thing I have going on is hoping to sell my trailer this weekend and Church Sunday[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
