I know this is an old thread, but we are going to go get our Suite out of storage and I want to get a wrench to check torque before towing. I read all the posts I could find, but, alas, it's all Greek to me. I know I need to buy a good quality wrench. I read that Terry considered Kobalt. I read there are 3 different kinds. Would you master mechanics just simplify this for me? Tell me what to buy, where. LOL

Also, we're planning to go to Southern Cal in January, as dh retires in Dec. It will be our first big trip. The tires scare me, even though our Suite is just 7 months old. I want to have the tire monitor installed. I'm thinking of going with the TST system. Do I just go to a mechanic to get it installed? Or is it a relatively easy DYI? My hubbie is fairly handy.

I apologize for such newbie questions. Sometimes when I read on the forum the what can go wrongs seem overwhelming. But I love my Suite!!
