The rear axle rating is not the only limiting design factor on what weight can be safely carried in the rear of your E350 Born Free. It also involves the frame and spring design.

Don't forget to lock it up. Generator to the hitch and the hitch to the frame.

Re: First Long Trip in Born Free Elsa
Welcome! That's a pretty good break-in voyage. You mentioned my favorite drive, Hwy 140. Not too far off of Hwy 140 in the SW corner of Oregon you will find the Alvord Desert. I keep going back. https://www.bornfreervclub.org/bulletin ... hp?id=3356

It's a lot easier to work on if you roll it up on 4" blocks.

Re: Microwave Replacement
I ran the new microwave as a convection oven this evening, and after about 20 minutes it died. The circuit breaker is still closed. I will pull it out after it cools & check for power. I think I am going to have a warranty claim soon. The typical BF installation (built into a small cabinet) mak...

Re: Simpson 260-8 Analog Test Meter
Yes, definitely a trip down memory lane. As a newly minted Air Force PMEL technician at Tan Son Nhut Air Base, I fixed and calibrated many of these. I would rate them PSM-6 first, Simpson 260 second and Triplett third. I do have a different perspective for the average RV owner. $260 is a lot to pay ...

Re: Donating an motorhome to charity
WOW! How low can you go? Stealing from HfH. I would think your state may have a tax fraud agency that might be interested. They might be able to stop the sale!. Tell Habitat in case they might have leverage and list the sale yourself on Craigs List with your pictures. Make sure you keep the pictures...

Re: Seeking Guidance: BFT wheel under coach
In checking some on-line sources I did not see a large selection or obvious matches to wheel/axle size or bolt configurations. My local farm stores have a wide range of styles and sizes at reasonable prices and I can take an old one to the store and match it up. I'm due to replace mine for the secon...

Re: Can I run my AC on 110 volt 15 amp at a campground?
Check for low voltage too. CGs are notorious for circuits with too many campers and the ones at the end of long runs can get dragged down pretty low. Don't even try it if it's below 110VAC. It can be really hard on AC compressor motors.

Re: Microwave Replacement
Dallas,
For what is worth, your cabinet looks identical to ours and our microwave is a Panasonic Microwave / Convection Oven (NN-T888S)

Re: Leak fixed, new leak, and misfire
Anyone tried just using the fantastic fan to do this? Is there enough pressure?stevek wrote:Regarding the leak, pressurize the cabin and use soapy water on seams.
You can find various videos on youtube.
Maybe use a leaf blower?

Wow! I'm tempted to erase all my posts here just to help make this rabbit hole less of a maize for the archive.

Re: Refrigerator on propane or using an inverter to provide
Vlamgat, In a way, your inverter and battery bank is already performing a soft start function, albeit, very inefficiently. https://www.microair.net/products/easystart-364-3-ton-single-phase-soft-starter-for-air-conditioners?variant=30176048267 doesn't create power.
