Dr. J:
    Thank you - I'm printing your instructions and putting them in my AS 
folder along with my check lists and all the appliances' manuals. Took 
Bubbles out for a shake down trip today - to the dump to get weighed 
and discovered that the shower door needs a latch and two of the 
cabinet doors ditto. She weighed in at about 3000 lbs with a full load 
of fresh water but no groceries and fishing gear. Made some adjustments 
on the brake controller and it pulled and stopped just fine. Pretty 
hilly trip and the truck & trailer seem well mated. The straight axle 
is a bit bouncier than I recall the dropped axle being. I need to 
double check the tire pressure too. Does towing the trailer dictate any 
changes in the tire pressure on the truck, do you think? Had to turn 
over the receiver and ball so the jack didn't drag on the driveway due 
to slope but I think that'll do it. We only had about 1/2 inch 
clearance under the carport beams to the top of the Fantastic Fan vent 
cover but we made it!! It had been on the deck for all the work.
