Re: Mold
Thanks everyone for the input. My trailer is parked in the shade i.e..oaks year round, and I would guess that doesn't help. When the weather is better I will go topside and look for and seal any and everything. Several posts on the Airstream boards advocated for the use of Wet and Forget, a mildew c...

Hensley stinger and Tundra
Does any one tow with a 2010 plus or minus a few years and use a Hensley hitch. Im curious as to what the drop is on your stinger. I have a 4 inch drop and it seems a little low. Thanks

LED running lights
I hooked my 1978 Model M 28.5 to check my lights Friday. The running lights were terrible! I opened several of them up and drained the water out of them. The bulbs were covered with a rust colored gunk. At some point the lights had been replaced and sealed so that water could get in, but not out. I ...

Re: Reflectors on side of late 70's Avion
I ended up ordering them from Vintage Trailer Supply. Great price and cheap shipping cost. Now I'm on to replacing the running lights on top.

Craigslist Pensacola has a listing for the above Avion. NOT mine, I have the same trailer. Looks to be a good price, but I haven't checked it out.

Re: Reflectors on side of late 70's Avion
Ill look at mine today. I agree I think they are just that, reflectors. They do however need to be replaced as they are rough looking. Thanks for the info.

Reflectors on side of late 70's Avion
I have a question about the reflectors found on the outside of our trailers. I'm looking at the ones on the bottom of the trailer, about a foot from back and front sides. Are these powered or are they merely reflectors? If reflectors they need replacing, if they are lights they need to be fixed/repl...
