Always remove the negative ground first and reconnect it last and you won't have that issue! Thanks for the tip that, after 66 years, I had just neglected to remember. I suppose everyone screws up but taking off rings, watches & using an insulated wrench is still a good idea when working around that much juice.

Had a nice, relaxing trip up to Collins Lake this weekend. The lake level was down and the weather was cool but the DW limited out on trout (as usual)! Met up with Loanshark and friends (really nice folks). Compared notes on our Lance trailers and overall had a very relaxing weekend. Truly wish we could make it to the Northern CA LAO rally in January but, due to prior commitments, we won't be able to. Did see one other Lance TC at Collins and a couple on the road on the way home.

Nice write up Jeff, and it looks like a good fit on your trailer. You are correct in that it won't stop a determined thief, not much will. But it will send the "crime of opportunity" type thief(s) on their merry way.... Erick

Edit we won't be able to make it, my mom passed away saturday, The funeral will probably be next tuesday or wednesday and my son and grandaughter will be here probably till saturday.

Lee-Ann, In the storage bag, ours measures about 6 feet. It won't lay down flat on your truck's rear seat, but will fit on the floor of your TC.

Agree it is heavier and bulkier than others, but won't trade it for any of them. It takes no time to set up as long as you get the first move Our first time was close to divorce and a neighbor offered t o help then retreated to safety. Once we watched the video it took less than2 min, now I make sure to check out the you-tube if we haven't used it in a while . Add a couple of panels and you have shade, warmth or privacy. Would purchase again in a heart beat.

Thank you for the answer Dan. That won't work for us, but glad that it does for you.

Giles - No WDH/sway control with our small/light properly loaded/balanced 1575. Just the coupler on the ball. I did not have to change the ball height. The StableLoads when installed correctly keep the rear end at about the same height when there is nothing hitched up. You are ALWAYS welcome to stop by and see my setup in person. If you have any questions fire away. Does your truck already have the silly factory circular stops installed? If so, you won't need to drill anything which is a...

Shouldn't. 200 lb plus folks are climbing those ladders all the time. 60 lbs of well-secured bike shouldn't effect anything--warranty or otherwise. By the way a number of us have that same Swagman. When loaded, It does slightly effect your tongue weight. And, depending on where you go, the bikes can get dirty riding back there. I'd like to find some kind of cover for the bikes that will keep them dry in the rain, and won't damage the paint as it flaps in the wind.

We have Swagmanrv Horizontal Bike Bag https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017...AS?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf and it works well.. Joe

Giles, you probably have seen this but in case not..... I was at Camping World yesterday and saw a large display for this RV Deluxe Bike Cover . After seeing your post yesterday, I immediately thought you might be interested.

Hey @RonK , welcome to LOA and the Lance Life. I noticed you posted your question in a thread tracking a Lance rally. Were you on the list to attend? If yes, we have dozens of people who would love to take you through your systems at the rally. If you were not attending, I assume you are looking for someone to stop by who lives close. You are 400+ miles away from me, so I am probably out for anytime soon. You might also want to start a new post with your question in the title. That way...
