Hey Vol,

Get that ball up higher, you need to be level front to rear, especially with a triple axle. Your tongue weight will be off because you have more on your front axle than your rear Axle. It will tow much better that way.

 

What I do is measure from the frame to ground just in front of the fender and the same just behind the fender over the wheel and get them as close to the same as possible. I try to get within ½" if possible.

 

Great Looks Rig by the Way!

That pic was right before I adjusted it to get it level across the whole frame. I just had to bump the hitch up 1 setting.

Awesome love that you went naked with no surf stickers. You will be easy for me to find this year. Should be able to spot you from across the lake LOL

I'll get some tonight. I went with the not blinged 550 rather than the blinged out one to save some coin so doesn't look too different than the others.

AWESOME :thumbsup: I'm sure you noticed but just in case your coolant is low in one of your reservoirs!

Wonder if that "Eco-conscious" filter system will slow down the fill and drain time any? Might if it starts to get plugged up.

 

That is one killer boat Volz!

I like your firepit in the background there. Don't let any embers find their way onto your boat cover or vinyl!

I did not notice. I'll have to check it. It was checked yesterday at the dealer after idling for 15 minutes, but of course that means nothing. LOL

      I see Lamb80782 had the same remove the driver seat as I am having.
      I didn't see the ulitmate solution.  I think removing "stop" would be the solution but am unable to see very well under the seat.  Has anyone come up with the solution?
      I also am reoving to have re-uphostered.  Itried removing the black access cover but it is very tight under there and not enough room for a regular wrench.  May try a 1/4 rachet drive.

      Good morning. I saw you talked about replacing the ram fill valves. I have a 2021 ri237 with a broken valve   It’s under warranty but dealer is going to be very slow to fix it.  Which wiring harness do I need to make sure I have  when I order off of Amazon.  Thank you scott

      I see you have the Go Surf assist installed on your 2008 Enzo SV230. I am about to do the same thing on my 2007 Enzo SV240. Do you happen to have some photos of the install taken from the transom? And how did you notch out the spacers for the bump out in the swim platform bracket?
      Thanks
