About the fridge moving(patsy's post); Check the plate at the top that holds it in place, the glue might have given way, yes glue. I know this because ours fell out, smashing out table in the process. I got it all put back and used a urethane adhesive to keep it there. Also place a piece of wood or something at the rear of the fridge, on top. This makes it impossible for it to fall out(sort of a wedge), but not come out.

The water leak is with the black tank back flush system and has been there for about a year, I just found out where the leak was actually coming from. The roller issue could be a slide alignment issue.The issue was there before the BB & Suites accident. Our trailer has independent torsion axle suspension, not solid axles with springs. Although I did think they could be out of alignment, I did take some measurements to see if that was possible, but I don't think so. Will ask about the possibility when we get home. Thanks again, I'm sure they will all work out.Bill Richards/ On Our Wayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14012026514461151026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7811957077805665210.post-28846879337032798932020-03-04T09:20:16.167-07:002020-03-04T09:20:16.167-07:00Just a couple of thoughts regarding everything but...Just a couple of thoughts regarding everything but the black tank issue. I wonder if all the other issues are related in some way. It seems to be too many single issues for them not to be all caused by one specific issue. A single roller out and another on ready to come out, a separation of sorts in the opposite slide with most of the screws being loose or broken off, water leak and the tire wear and replacement seems to be too much of a coincidence. The wear pattern on your tires (although not the separation issue) looks very similar to the wear pattern I had last year with my rear axle. One side was worse than the other of course (due to a bent bracket) but the biggest issue was alignment, the rear axle was out a bit. I'm not saying that is your problem only that the wear pattern was very similar. Heavier wear in certain places on the less affected tire (opposite side of the broken bracket) was pretty plain. <br />If you noticed the slide issues ONLY AFTER the accident with BB and the Suites, I would think it could have just been the impact that caused those problems but the tires lead me to think it wasn't that. <br />Anyway, just a couple of thoughts. <br />Good luck with all the issues. They certainly do taint the day and the travel.

As for the tires, we had always run the tires at 5-10 lbs. under pressure. This trailer has independent torsion bar suspension with shock absorbers.

One Dealer told us to run the MAX PSI and we had Four Blowouts. Another Dealer said to keep them Five to Ten Pounds under the MAX to allow for Heat Expansion. We haven't had a Blowout since. Boondocking in the desert is wonderful but the rocks tend to cut into the tires. As for the low point in the tire if you don't have Shock Absorbers on your Trailer that is your problem.<br />Wishing you Enjoyable Safe Travels with no further problems.<br /><br />It's about time.Rick and Kathy Rousseauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05187734210342762674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7811957077805665210.post-33182394931617568592020-03-04T06:28:33.952-07:002020-03-04T06:28:33.952-07:00Oh dear.
