tailgate

Bought a used 2018 Jayco Octane 161. Pulling it with a GMC Sierra. Tailgate hits the tongue jack. Anyone else seen this issue with an idea of how to fix it? I've thought about relocating the propane tanks to the shelf to the right of the batteries and adding a bracket to move the jack...

I am driving a 2021 F150 ford and 3-4 times a year load my Fleet FWC. No major issues EXCEPT the hellish wiring harness for the tailgate (camera, lights, etc). Four connectors located under the bed, just behind the bumper. It is an impossible location to see what you are doing. And the nylon...

Newbie with a 2018 Grandby. It’s on an 2011 F350 8’ bed. The camper has very large rubber numbers that keep it from going any further forward. Has anyone reduced the size of the bumpers enough to keep the tailgate on and closed? It looks like there would be enough room but I’m curious if...

I have a pickup date of 8/6 scheduled for an Escape 5th wheel. Of course there is a lot of uncertainty about dates these days, things being as they are. Also need to get my 2017 Escape 19' spruced up and ready for sale. At any rate I would really like a gooseneck installation account of the...

Hey there, Just discovered this site today after my wife and our 2yo daughter purchased a 2015 FWC Fleet. We are hoping to put it onto a GMC Canyon after we offload my old rusty Tundra. My question is; does anyone have experience running a fleet on a short bed with the tailgate down? If so...

2004 E-450 Turtle Top Shuttle bus for sale that I purchased about 12 months ago from a dealer that acquired it from an Ohio State auto auction. The bus has a little over 100k miles on it and it has ran great for me during the time I have had it. I have taken it on long road trips without any...

I am considering purchasing a louvered 5th wheel tailgate, can any of you share some insight into the difference pulling your 5er with a stock vs. 5th wheel tailgate? Thanks!

Howdy! I've been doing a whole lot of research on these forums as well as some other places to get started making a plan for a Skoolie. I have different plans for my bus than most people on these forums, and I'm hoping to get some advice. I go to school at a university with a very large...

Hi all! My very first post, and perhaps the first post ever written about getting a huge piano onto a school bus?! I've not yet acquired my bus but am committed to converting a large school bus into a mobile workshop for doing restorations on grand pianos. I am a piano teacher and piano...

Has anyone relocated the factory tailgate camera on a Ford HD to the front of the box or third brake lite area? I just got a truck with one, and use an aero gate when towing my fiver. It would be handy to use the factory camera. Thanks

I have a Hawk FWC scheduled for delivery in a couple of weeks. It will go on my 2011 F-250 Lariat 6.7L Power-stroke Diesel 6 3/4 truck bed. I am told that the tailgate will need to be removed. Because the factory backup camera is located in the handle of the tailgate, so goes the camera. My...
