My Powerboost probably wouldn't be over Payload when I'm towing, if it wasn't for all the RV support tools I never would go on the road without. 🤣

I love RV's. I can't get out of them. But I am always "fixin somthin"

The Irwin 9 in 1, a Gerber multi tool, a multi meter with amp clamp, a fuse kit, an assortment of electrical connectors and most small things are covered.

That isn't all I bring of course but there is a difference between local-ish weekend, or even week + use and multi thousand mile, month+ trips.

I was incorrect regarding the rear end.

Apparently it’s a Dana S110 full floating with an 11.25” ring gear and 4.56 limited slip. Don’t know much but it sounds stout lol

Slow and easy down the road. Hopefully for years 😊

I’m reading good things about Josam frame and alignment center in Orlando for RV alignment work. Any thoughts?

The rear end is an open differential it turns out.

There is an Eaton Detroit Truetrac limited slip replacement carrier designed to work with the existing Dana S110.

Pros and cons for a 27’ class C?

I’m letting my ignorance shine!

I imagine a steep grade getting to a campsite and one set of rear tires just spinning in the gravel as I slowly slide awkwardly back down the hill 😩😂

Thinking on it, I haven't had, at least posi trak on a pickup, since the 80s and 4WD since that one.

Absent that, wet grass could foil them.

That’s my concern. My truck is no off road machine but it does have 4WD to get me out of a grass parking area after a rain shower.

I wonder how helpless the heavy class C will be in that situation. Duallies will help but 🤷🏻‍♂️

Don’t Harvest Hosts often have grassy parking areas?

So what you are saying is that you are pondering how to avoid adventure when you set out for adventure in an adventure rig. 😁😁😁

Just Go!


Have


Fun!

We got to the "RV Resort" after dark. All the water fun was already shut down. I had 2 pouting little granddaughters that had been waiting all school week to play.

Alas, those under blanket bundles of energy were soon to awaken to a gorgeous beach morning.
