I have decided to go with GoodSam Road service. I think this will give me the best coverage.
I have a Chevy 2500 HD truck, Fuzion 325 5th wheel, Suzuki motorcycle.
Have been viewing some YouTube videos on my problem with the check valve in the water pump. I saw this fix on one of the videos. Place this back-flow preventer on the outlet side of the pump and it is supposed to stop the bleeding of the water into the fresh water tank.

Ray, why did you go with the Dexter original brake drums? You could have purchased aftermarket drums cheaper. But good job on explaining the steps you went through.
Good job Rey, I also used Gorilla Tape to rescuer the underbelly. I didn’t need the wire this time. Maybe after I cut mine up as much as you have I will need it then. Your’s looks more like Frankenstein put back together again.
I would do it soon as you can. I have a 2015 and the plastic bushings were totally worn out.
I droped the under belly cover. It made it easier to do the welding. I am glad I did drop it because the water lines to the washer hookup had my rear heater vent collapsed, No air flow to the vent.
Also the electrical and hydraulic lines were just setting on the belly cover, bouncing up and down while I travel down the road.
Hi Ray, I have used the EEZRV TPMS for 6 months now. I do not use a booster with my unit. I have a 38 Ft trailer and have not had any problems with it dropping out on me. I also use 6 sensors on my unit. Two for the spare tires and the other four for the RV. On your sensor monitor I noticed that you use the dual tire view on the RV. Why is that? You can do single tire view also.
I purchased a Valttera water regulator. Set it for 50 PSI and the Oxygenics Shower head works fine. I also purchased a Brady water pressure gauge. When I received it the gauge was reading 18 pounds not hooked up. So I am not sure if the gauge would give you accurate readings of your water pressure. I will be returning it to Amazon.
I have been doing some experimenting with my shower head and the water pressure in the RV.
This is what I found out. If I do not use my current water regulatory the head works fine.
Useing the RV water pump the head works fine. So I need to get a new water regulatory so I can adjust to the pressure I need for it to work. This photo is the one I have been looking at.
I was looking on youTube and found that the shutoff valve will not shut the water off all the way.
Any more input on this subject is welcome.

was just looking on Amazon and they are saying that the King Jack 0A8500 and the Winegard RVW 395 Sensar IV is the best for RV’s.

Spotty Verizon cell service.Hi Richard, I am now using the EEZ TPMS. It has worked good for me. I also like the ideal of seeing the pressure and temperature at a glance. I have purchased new tires for my 5th wheel. I chose the Samson GL285T, ST235/85/R16 tires and they seam to be a lot better tire than the Goodyear Marathon’s. The things I like about the tires is the 14 ply sidewall and the 75 MPH speed rating. I like to run 65 MPH and if the tire is only rated for 65 like the Goodyear Marathons it seems that you are running at max all the time. Building up to much heat on the tire.
