Education at Northern Wholesale Supply

Monday, May 16th, 2011

Great Reception at King Controls

Northern Wholesale Supply is serious about RV parts education. We want to be your primary supplier for parts as well as information. This education is done in a few different ways. One way is that we offer multiple (vendor based) training sessions here at Northern Wholesale Supply – primarily during the slower times of the year. Usually, this is an all day event (with lunch provided) where you send your parts and / or service people to get information directly from the source – the vendor.

Plus, the annual Northern Wholesale Supply Super Show held every January (Next years dates: January 11th & 12th 2012) at Treasure Island Casino Red Wing, MN is a wonderful opportunity to gain industry knowledge from the many participating vendors. This is done in two ways. First, with a full day “dealer seminar” – the day before the show – in which some of our most popular vendors offer product and sales training to dealers about their products. Second, you also have the opportunity to visit with each vendor one on one at their particular booth.

Our sales department, also, works hard to stay educated to be able to answer your questions quickly and efficiently. We have a weekly “product” meeting in which we go over new products to the industry and any changes to existing ones. We also quite frequently get visiting vendors to come into Northern and give us hands on demonstrations & training. Finally, occasionally we get to take field trips to visit vendors first hand and learn about their company and the products they offer. Recently we took one of these trips to visit King Controls located in Bloomington, MN.

The first thing you notice when you pull up to the King Controls parking lot is that the south side of the building is full of plastic bubbles that house “testing” satellites dishes. Our tour guide and teacher for the day, Sean O’Neill – King Controls, explained that when they looked for a building to house their operation they had to be sure that it had a clear view of the southern sky (to ensure the best signal for their satellite systems).

The atmosphere at King Control is clean, bright, and fun. We were exposed & educated on a number of products that we are supplying at Northern Wholesale Supply. Sean put on a number of hands on demonstrations to let us see his products in action. One such demonstration was the Jack antenna. Using simply the Jack Antenna, the Surelock signal finder, and a small TV he was able to get a large number of quality picture TV channels for free.

Here is a link to the product information sheet on the Jack & Surelock as well as a product training presentation on free digital TV reception:

The Jack product information

Surelock product information

Simplified Digital TV Reception – product training

A second demonstration Sean put on was for their product called Dome Magic. This product blew me away with its performance. We took a dish outside and sprayed it with a garden hose to simulating rain. The signal immediately dropped from the mid 90% reception down to the 40-60% range. Then we wiped off the dish, sprayed a coat of Dome Magic and repeated the test. To my shock the signal stayed in the high 80’s low 90’s range. If I hadn’t been there and saw it with my own eyes I wouldn’t have believed it. Take it from me Dome Magic works and you should be selling it to everyone with a dish.

Here are our part numbers for Dome Magic:

0112.9779	0112.9782

We continued our education by going over the other items offered by King Controls. We talked of the portable satellites – VuQubes, Roof mount Satellites w/ integrated off-air antenna features– King Dome Air, and finally we were given some insider information on what might be coming down the road in Satellite & off-air technology (sorry can’t spill the beans – top secret!). Here is more information and links on these products as well as general information on King Controls:

All of us at Northern Wholesale Supply would like to thank everyone at King Controls for letting us infiltrate their company and giving us a day of training, education and fun. If you have any questions or would like to get pricing on any of the items I have mentioned from King Controls please contact your Northern Wholesale Supply sales representative. Plus, if you are ever going to be in the neighborhood of King Controls (Bloomington, MN) and would like to stop by for a visit let us know and we can see what we can arrange.

Northern Wholesale Supply & Mor/ryde

Monday, April 25th, 2011

Smoothing out the rough spots

Northern Wholesale Supply is proud to announce a new partnership with MOR/ryde International – www.morryde.com. This relationship gives Northern Wholesale Supply the opportunity to supply you with the full line of quality products & accessories from Mor/ryde.

You know the name Mor/ryde from their years of manufacturing high-performance, patented suspension systems for O.E.M. applications, utilizing their unique rubber in shear spring design. They continue to be the primary name when it comes to O.E.M suspension.

Mor/ryde’s success in the O.E.M market has lead to a natural progression to aftermarket. The last three years has seen an aggressive growth by Mor/ryde to expand their offerings and meet the needs of the aftermarket customer. There are four unique areas where they have concentrated their growth:
1. Rubber Pin Box Systems, 2. Suspension Systems, 3. TV mounts, & 4. Sliding Trays.

1. Rubber Pin Box Systems

www.morryde.com/php/products/pinbox/index.php

morryde-image002

The Mor-ryde pin box system is simple, well built, and does was it is suppose to do – makes your tow stress-free. They use a unique rubber shear spring technology that absorbs shock without the worry of air or maintenance.

Here is a picture of the strong rubber shear spring (the shock absorber):

When you replace your existing pin box with the shock absorbing Mor-Ryde model you get:

Please call or contact your Northern Wholesale Supply sales representative for fit & pricing on these pin box systems.

2. Suspension Systems / Running Gear

It’s all about the travel

Whether you want to smooth out a rough ride or upgrade weak or aging parts Mor-ryde has the solution for your running gear needs.

Mor-ryde has two options for upgrading your standard stock equalizer that will improve your customers travel and thusly smoothing out their ride.

Option 1:

3SRE4000 Suspension.pdf

For your customers with larger mid to high end units (5200 to 7000 GAWR) there is the SRE 4000. It simply replaces their stock equalizer with a Mor-Ryde system that has 4” of shock absorbing travel. This increased travel means smoother towing, improved towability and better protection from damaging road shock. Furthermore, the kit comes with one cross-member brace to firm up their stock frame. This kit will ensure a smoother, stabile ride for your customer and a nice sale for your parts and service departments.

Option 2:

MORryde CRE3000 Flyer.pdf

For your customer with slightly smaller or lighter units (3500 – 7000 GAWR) Mor-Ryde offers the CRE/3000 suspension system. It offers many of the features and advantages of the SRE4000 but at a slightly smaller scale. It offers 3 of suspension travel and a full 2 year warranty.

morryde-image010

Running Gear

In addition to the suspension systems Mor-ryde offers many running gear upgrades. Your customer can upgrade their stock inferior bolts, shackles, shocks, or u-bolts to the heavy duty long lasting Mor-ryde options.

It is no surprise that OEM’s sometimes use the minimum quality products in running gear shackles and bolts to save cost. This can compromise the safety and stability of your customer unit. For peace of mind offer your customers the wet bolt upgrade kit from Mor-ryde.

Furthermore, Mor-ryde has you covered when you need new u-bolts, shocks, or need to reinforce a less than solid frame. Click on the links below each picture to read about the products offered for their replacement.

Blue Ox Base Plates

Friday, July 9th, 2010

• Built like a receiver hitch to absorb towing forces

• Typically single piece design to increase durability

• Custom fit design

• Spreads towing force equally without undue stress

• Keeps weight placed on suspension to a minimum

• Bolts securely to the chassis

• Baseplate safety cables come standard for additional baseplate to frame security

• Convenient location for electrical plug

• Safety cable convenience links come standard for connection of safety cables between motorhome and towed vehicle

• Removable tabs allow for more cosmetically appealing installation

• Provides a clean-looking front bumper

BLUE OX APPLICATION GUIDE

Choosing Blue Ox is having a baseplate custom-made for your vehicle, only faster. Our baseplates are easy on your suspension and even easier on the eye. We’ve designed them with hidden reinforcement. We don’t offer a one-size-fits-all support system, but rather a system that’s shock absorbing and integrated into the individual bumper frame with the bumper design of your vehicle. Our philosophy is to let the baseplate torsion, or flex, similar to receiver hitches allowing the baseplate to absorb the forces of towing rather than rigidly transferring the forces to the frame of the vehicle.

All Blue Ox baseplates have a three year warranty.

SwayPro Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to keep extra pins or clips like I did for my old hitch?
No. SwayPro has self-locking snap up brackets. There are no loose parts to track. There are no pins or clips on the entire weight distribution hitch.

How much maintenance is there?
People familiar with other weight distributing, sway control hitches will appreciate SwayPro’s minimal maintenance. SwayPro has two easily-accessible grease fittings that require a shot of grease about every other long trip. Accidentally over-greasing may result in a clean up task, but it will not damage the SwayPro.

Do I need to grease the spring bars?
Grease is captured inside the spring bar head. Grease is never applied to spring bars. Use a high quality moly-based bearing grease. Do not use a silicon-based grease.
(Example: use ThermaPlex Hi-Load grease (ThermaPlex part no. 70414) or similar. “Moly” = molybdenum disulfide.)

Should I keep some plastic bags to put over the ends of the spring bars when I take them out to keep the grease off my vehicle when I store them?
No. The SwayPro spring bars just snap out with a ¼ turn, and are always clean, and grease-free. No grease is ever applied to the spring bars.

Do I have to add an after-market sway control to the SwayPro?
No, SwayPro has designed-in sway control functionality.

Do I have to disable the sway control to back up?
No. You back up normally.

Do I have to buy a complete new system when I trade up to a heaver trailer?
No. You may need two higher-rated spring bars, but everything else is the same for the four different tongue weight ratings.

What size do I need?
The SwayPro hitch is supplied with one of four standard pairs of spring bars. Spring bar selection is based on your trailer’s tongue weight rating. Spring bars are rated for 550, 750, 1000, 1500 lbs tongue weight.
Note: details on part numbers are located in the SwayPro Modification Guide, ie, page 27 of the Sept 2006 Application Guide booklet.

If I have a tongue weight of 500lbs can I use the BXW1000 spring bars?
You need to stay within your tongue rating. You would need to order the BXW0550 spring bars. Overly stiff spring bars yield a rough ride and can overstress a trailer tongue.

How long will a SwayPro last?
With proper lubrication and use, we expect your hitch’s life to exceed that of your trailer. SwayPro hitches are covered by a limited life-time warranty.

How are the tongue brackets attached?
Tongue brackets are clamped to the tongue with clamping bolts or permanently attached with bolts through drilled holes.

How do the Sway bars lock?
The sway bars have a slotted groove on one end that inserts into the hitch head. Insert, twist, and the spring bar locks into place.

How is the head adjusted?
The SwayPro is adjusted with a simple thumb screw. Head mounting bolts are loosened (not removed), the thumbscrew is adjusted, and mounting bolts are retightened. Nothing is disassembled or removed from the hitch in this process.

The SwayPro has 4 points of control?
Yes. The SwayPro controls swaying motion between itself and the trailer tongue with a pair of control links that capture the spring bar tensioning chains and limit their horizontal movement. In addition, the SwayPro has two friction adjusting bolts in the head.

What controls the sway?
The SwayPro’s four points of control exert forces on the trailer tongue and on the tow vehicle that are engineered to nullify sway.

How do I know if I’m using the correct chain link when tensioning spring bars?
Choose the chain link that lifts the spring bar end and aligns the spring bar in a position parallel to the trailer tongue frame.

Is there something I could do if I have to turn extremely short turning situation?
You just take normal precautions when making sharp turning maneuvers to make sure your tow vehicle and trailer do not contact each other.

Can I use SwayPro if I have surge brakes installed on my towed vehicle?
SwayPro’s dual benefits of weight distribution and sway control also work for you when your towed vehicle is equipped with surge brakes. SwayPro’s operation is unchanged when towing with a surge brake actuator in place of a simple hitch coupler. However, the effects of the small compression and return motion (approximately an inch) that occurs in the surge brake actuator effects conventional sway control, and surge brake manufacturers have established varying requirements for using their products with conventional sway control products and weight distributing hitches.

Whatever the limitations placed on other hitch products, SwayPro’s functioning is unchanged when towing with surge brakes. Blue Ox recommends that you check with the manufacturer of your particular surge brake actuator before using their product with any weight distributing hitch.
