Make sure you are not buying a salvage or rebuilt title!!!!!

Some wrecked TM's have been sold for salvage and then the buyers have tried to resell them. You absolutely do not want to buy one of these.

Make sure you take a rug or cardboard and look under the trailer. Look for any damage or repairs on the bottom, pipes and tank. Also look to see if there is a lot of rust. There will be some but not a lot. Is there a spare on the rack?

My wife and I just bought a replacement to our wrecked 2720sl while we were on vacation. We spent 4 hours going over the unit. Found that the toilet leaked and forced the dealer to fix it. We opened and closed it ourselves. Checked that the heat, AC, fan, fridge worked (gas and electric), hot water heater (gas and electric), pump, stove and oven. We opended and checked all cabinets, looked under the mattress, looked under the sofa, and turned on every light.
We noticed that the axel grease caps were gone, that dealer doesn't carry them so we will have to take some with us.

Does anyone know the axle grease cap diameter for a 2007 2720sl? They are only a couple of bucks but are really necessary to keep the axle grease dry.
