    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Rookie tire and rear suspension questions

    Holy crap that looks like some sort of predicament my dad would get into! Ok, now you have me more confused. How is 3-ply different than standard or e-rated (10-ply)? Is this an older rating system?

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Rookie tire and rear suspension questions

    dharte what is the load rating of these tires? Probably won't be offroading a great amount so I'm hoping that the timbrens will work for my application. With the air bags the flexibility sounds nice but I am worried about the potential for leaks and having to maintain the air pressure. My...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Rookie tire and rear suspension questions

    Here's where my tire ignorance really comes out: isn't E-rated and 10-ply the same thing? Regarding the Timbrens, my understanding is that the air bags and timbrens do the same thing, only with the timbrens there is no air pressure to worry about maintaining.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Best truck/engine for a FWC-Eagle model

    Thanks! It does seem to me that you'd want at least a 4L V6 but I'm not sure if anyone out there has experience carrying a camper of this type with something smaller like a 3.6. We aren't anticipating the need to haul much more than the camper but it would be good to keep our options open.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Best truck/engine for a FWC-Eagle model

    I'm new to this forum and would love some advice on picking out a truck for a used Eagle camper that I am about to inherit from my parents. Score! Problem is, we don't have a truck. We are on a somewhat limited budget so we can't afford the new 4-door long-bed Tacoma that we really want. I...
