RE: Trailer Camera

I bought the 2022 Chevrolet High Country, and it has the camera plugs at the rear bumper. My dealer was not any better that your dealer, they just don't know or don't want to research to find the correct answer.
If you don't have the trailer camera plugs, I would guess that you can't just install the camera plugs.

RE: AGM Deep Cycle batteries

I think you are better off staying with flooded lead acid batteries. Two (or four) 6volt golf cart batteries. They are half the cost and I get 6 or 7 years out of mine before I replace them.

RE: 12 volt Refrigerator

You would be much better off with a propane refrigerator.

RE: Leveling blocks on dual rear wheels

That would depend on the weight. You might crush the plastic blocks. Wood blocks would hold up under one tire.

RE: Trailer Hitch Set-up Option

Ideally you want the trailer to be level so if you need to turn the hitch over to get the trailer level then do it.

RE: Batteries and Inverter Installed

You need to check the water in the batteries at least once a week. Hot weather and multiple discharge/charge cycle will cause evaporation. Depending on how much you use your RV, you probably need to clean the batteries every 3 - 6 months.
Our four FLA 6 volt golf cart batteries only use one pint each per year. We use our trailer 120 -150 days a year. They are seven years old and there is no corrosion on the terminals at all.

RE: Front brakes

On my 2007 GMC 3500HD dually at 175,000 miles one rear pad was down to metal so I replaced one rotor and all the pads. The front pads had over 50% of the original pad left. As for temperature they all feel warm.

RE: Installing a new propane detector

I have had my trailer long enough the I just replaced the propane detector for the second time. The first time it was easy to get the same detector. the second time I could not get the same one. I had to get a horizontal detector, so I made a new wall plate to fill hole and mount the new detector.

RE: Do I need the ground lug to connect my new charger converter

You have to drill a hole in your garage floor and drive an 8-foot grounding rod down into the ground.
Just kidding, you will be fine without the extra ground wire.

RE: Rice Ranch RV, Quartzsite

When you arrive in Quartzsite on January 21st expect a lot of traffic, no cell service during the day and very limited food in the store. Have fun and stay safe.
As for the RV park I have not been there.

RE: Tandem axle vs single

If a tire blows out on a tandem axle trailer you will still be on the side of the road fixing it, but the trailer will still be upright.

RE: Simplest battery monitor and shunt? Advice for non-expert

I also like simple so I bought the Aili battery monitor. It is only $44. There are a couple options to buy a longer wire so measure before you buy.

RE: Setting up Solar on my Moho

How much does your Tiffin weigh? I don't think that the savings will matter.
I would stay away from the flex panels and install 5 or 6 200 watt panels, or 3 350 watt panels.
I would stay with a 12 volt system.

RE: Gas Engine - Fill It Up

I always use regular gas stations to fill up our diesel truck with 5th wheel. I only think of 3 times in the last 11 years that I had to back out after filling up.
