Brakes

Safety is paramount when it comes to traveling with your fifth wheel. That's why it's essential to check your brakes, or have them professionally inspected, before and after every excursion. Properly functioning brakes are the linchpin of road safety, preventing wear and tear that can lead to expensive repairs. At JR Motors, we understand the importance of reliable brakes, and our service department is here to ensure that your fifth wheel's brakes are in optimal condition for your peace of mind.

Plumbing System

Your fifth wheel is your sanctuary on wheels, a place where you can unwind after a day of exploration. To avoid any unwelcome surprises, it's important to ensure that the plumbing system is in good working order before setting off. Checking for leaks, running the water to ensure proper flow, and making sure the waste systems are clean and functional will make all the difference in enjoying your home away from home.

Hitch

The hitch is the critical link between your fifth wheel and your towing vehicle. Regular inspections and maintenance of the hitch assembly are vital to prevent any mishaps during your travels. Ensuring that all components are properly lubricated, secure, and free of wear and tear will give you confidence as you hitch up and hit the road.
