RE: Friction Sway Control
I towed with a single bar on my 20' road Ranger and double bars on my 27' #6400 Nomad... No issues with either one although I must say that both my Pullrite and current Hensley are more stable than the friction bars under adverse conditions...
With a trailer the size your contemplating, I think I might go for a bit better hitch although you certainly have enough truck to tow with... Why not try it first and then make a decision based upon your findings after you tow...

RE: Mallard 721L
Mallard used to be the low end of the Fleetwood... Fleetwood bought Mallard quite a few years ago and of course now - Fleetwood is also out of the towable business selling off their assets last year... All the appliances within the trailer will be industry standard as will the axles, tires, etc so I wouldn't be too concerned with that aspect of it...
As with buy any used trailer look for telltale signs of water damage - water marks on ceilings or walls, soft floors, etc...
Fleetwood also made Terry's, Prowlers, Wilderness, etc - they had many different brands... Some had good luck with them, some didn't... If you like it and it checks out it's probably no better or no worse than others in it's price category...

RE: Flag pole mount
Here's mine - a piece of 2" PVC mounted to the TT A-Frame with some threaded stock and metal backing plates... Works well... I sprayed everything black to match the A-frame...

RE: Darco Polyethylene Vapor Barrier – Who sells it?
John, I did a search on Darco underbelly and came up with this dealer... Although they show no stock, it might be worth a phone call to see what it is and where they get it... I can give my dealer a call and see if he knows if you want me to???

RE: Wisesales.com or local dealer?
Bought mine from Mayberry's a few years ago - fired up right out of the box... For 185 bucks, I'd go with Wise...

RE: 12 Volt Help!!!!!
Battery cable polarity??? While most of us equate red and black colors with positive and negative voltages, trailer manufacturers frequently use white and black colors which correspond to the electrical codes... If these colors are used, black is hot or positive and white is ground or negative...
Are your cables connected correctly??? Additionally, in my TT, the battery has a fuse located in a little plastic box sitting on the TT tongue just aft of the battery compartment - have you checked for fuses coming off the battery positive terminal???

RE: Looking to replace my T.V.
My mechanic charges $100 for inspection of a "new" car... Probably about the same for a truck...

RE: Little confused - propane overfill?
When my dealer fills my tanks he has the tank on a scale... There is also a mechanical readout of gallons on the pump and of course there is the 80% fill valve too...

RE: Wireless thermometer
I have a wire hook on mine that I fashioned from 14 ga wire and I hang it on the grab bar on the left side of the entry door... We usually have the awning up so it's in the shade and we bring it in when we leave...

RE: Brake Controller question
Just a personal opinion, but I would lose the Scotch-Lok and strip back the brake wire and solder it...
I removed a ton of dealer installed Scotch-Loks from my braking system a few years ago and the braking performance increased dramatically... I would never depend on them in a critical situation like braking... Just my opinion - other opinions may vary...

RE: How does charging system work on a TT
Tystevens,
The converter in the TT should do a decent job of keeping the battery charged when plugged... Most late model TT's will have a 3 stage charger which usually do a pretty decent job of charging... Assuming the battery is fully charged when you leave for a destination, the truck charging system will do an adequate job of maintaining that charge assuming you don't run down the TT battery before you get there...
If you look at your converter and give us the make and model number, we can tell you how good it will work (or not work)...

RE: Toilet question
From what I know of it, the mounting centers for the bolts will be standardized for a given diameter pipe just like a house toilet but there could be differences in toilet width, height, and depth...
You should carefully measure the distance from center line of the mounting holes to the back of the existing toilet, also measure the sides and front, and then compare those dimensions to the one your thinking of buying...
I would also check the height from the floor as there are low profile RV toilets as well as platforms to make an existing RV toilet higher...
