    Need Help With Good Fifth Wheel Hitch Installer In Long Beach Ca

    Call Hitch Crafters in Costa Mesa near the Orange County Fairgrounds, 949-548-3000. They have done hitches in my last three trucks and do very good work. They were able to get me whatever hitch I chose in one day. My last two have been bolted on, but they will weld if you desire. Most of the...

    Have heard nothing but good things about your trailer. You might want to check out the toy hauler section at rv.net in the open roads forums if you already have not. Good luck and have fun!

    05 Vibration from rear

    Well I went and picked up my truck. The vibration is still there, no change at all which is no surprise because they didn't do anything to it. The service writer did not write anything on my receipt ticket about not being able to go any farther on a test drive to find a non expansion joint...

    05 Vibration from rear

    Thanks for the info sag2. You are right it si my fault to begin with, but I thought I did the right thing by driving it as the right speeds. Unfortunately I did not know what it felt like and all I felt was the bumps of the expansion joint freeway. It won't happem again I'll tell you that right...

    05 Vibration from rear

    Sag2, Thanks for the info. It appears as though you may work for DC, or at least another dealer and are familiar with DC's system. I don't have a problem doing this, but why is it up to the customer to point this out to the dealer? I mean I don't work there and if I didn't learn this from you...

    05 Vibration from rear

    Mhorne, If you don't have it then don't worry about it. Seems as though the trucks either have it or they don't. Mine had it right from the start. I knew this when I looked for a truck too, in fact I read it right here. It just so happens the location I test drove the truck was a section of...

    05 Vibration from rear

    I am not even going to ask for this or any other favors, as far as putting in on a rack. The lawyer also told me not to pursue a DC rep for any reason at all. I do not even have to contact DC's arbitration hotline or whatever it is when you are not satisfied. The lawyer said these are just...

    05 Vibration from rear

    DPK, Thanks for the info. After I read your last post about taking him for a ride, I called him to suggest that. He said he is not authorized to do that and wouldn't do it. He then suggested I go to a different dealership to get the truck looked at because they can't help me. I asked him to...

    05 Vibration from rear

    Well here we go..... Just got a call from the dealer. He said your truck is ready for pickup. We replaced your door seals and we could not duplicate the vibration problem. I explained to him to look in the mirrors when driving at that speed if nothing else. He said DC gives them about 5...

    05 Vibration from rear

    DPK, Very interesting info that is for sure. The dealer I bought it from and where I took it in is a very large dealer, that mostly sells trucks. I am not sure what ratio 1500 to 2500/3500, but they claim to be the county's largest truck dealer. As the service writer was typing up my work...

    05 Vibration from rear

    DPK, I wonder at what point does the "drone" become a vibration. I have a 67 chevelle that had a drone from an exhaust I put on it. The drone hurt my ears before it ever became an actual vibration, and I changed the exhaust. The rear view mirrors in my truck shake and vibrate at these...

    05 Vibration from rear

    I too have a 40K $ vibrator. Mine vibrates enough that I can't see anything out of my rear view mirrors and it also puts my hands asleep if I drive for any distance. It also does it when I tow my trailer, which is a major annoyance on any trip we have taken with the family. I took it in...

    How many with the vibes

    Well I haul an 11,000 lb trailer and I still have the vibes. After this weeks camping trip it is going in for its first service and first complaints about the vibe issue. I will also be getting the door seals replaced as they are so tore up that they are now making more wind noise.

    What suspension mods will I need?

    I bought the ride rights at 4 wheel parts wholesalers. They were a great price and had them to me in one day. Very cheap shipping too!

    What suspension mods will I need?

    Remove the overloads and get a set of airbags. You can adjust them for ride height and comfort with whatever your pin weight or empty weight is. I bought the the Ride Rites and am very happy with them.

    smoke - why?

    My stock 05 smokes pretty good under hard driving if all I have recently been doing is city driving, red light to red light. If I drive on the freeway for any length of time the smoke goes away till I drive short distances in the city again. But it does smoke a lot sometimes! Very thick...

    Insurance is telling me its a 3500!

    Ok great thank you for the info! My 4th digit is a K, so I do in fact have a 2500. I actually forwarded all this info to the agent and they looked at it and said, "wow this will come in handy. " I guess I am not the only one, sounds like this issue may be common with them. Mercury may be...

    Insurance is telling me its a 3500!

    I have had my truck for almost a year, see my sig. Through this year my insurance agent has periodically asked me for a copy of the registration, then continue to ask me if I have a 2500 or a 3500. I got a call from my agent today and she said according to my VIN # it is a 3500. She said they...

    3rd Gen class V Putnam hitch pictures

    Some of the aftermarket hitches you bolt on underneath the stock hitch. This leaves yoiu with 2 receivers which some need for truck campers. I don't like the look and did not want that. My Putnam goes on it place of the stock receiver. I cut off the square receiver portion, leaving the stock...
