You can run another 12v line from the batteries thru a fuse up thru the floor to the side of the bed. Just silicone the hole from the floor to the front storage. I ran an inverter this way, no issues.

My original 07 WFCO died last fall. Replaced with a Progressive Dynamics. 2 cooling fans and a remote monitor. Well worth the $20 more than a WFCO IMHO.

Try manually extending the slide. There should be a 3/4 inch nut/bolt/screw on the mechanism under the trailer (under the coroplast) that allows you to extend/retract the slide. Mine got stuck out....

If you are looking for a no frills FHU, the fairgrounds in Woodland 15 miles west of Sac. is great. We used it last year when we stayed a couple days to see Old Town Sacramento and the train museum.

So what is the preferred solution on rigs WAY out of warranty? Shims? re-weld?
I will be looking at mine tomorrow. Getting ready for a short annual spring jaunt next week.

Camping world has slide seal lube. I use it once a year on my 07. Seals look good still.
Since your trailer is a 15, check warranty. You may be able to take it in and have the seals replaced.

MadMax makes a good point. The safety valve in the tanks will trip if you open too quickly. Also I have had TWO regulators fail on me. Installed manual valves.

My 5th wheel did not come with the traditional bumper box, so I did the same. Painted it black. I like the idea of holding the ladder. May have to do that along with my other winter trailer projects.
