Manual statements:
"Clean and lubricate flush ball and seal with silicone spray or furniture polish ."
"(Note: To avoid damage, do not use spray lubricants other than silicone.)"
Vaseline or any petroleum-based product will cause deterioration of the flush ball seal.

Sadly, I've seen a few of these failures. Often, a frame failure like this is due to a camper configuration on the truck. That is why I recommend buyers use the Truck Camper Load Check app before buying a camper. The free app is at tcLoadCheck.com.

An RVer said: “You will be well over the ‘legal payload’ for your truck.”
There is no such thing as a legal payload. The certification label is not a law in which one would receive a citation if it were exceeded.

I think the only thing that could make the RVtowCheck.com app any better is if it could teach reading comprehension. Other than teaching reading comprehension, do you have any other recommendations?
