    Just ordered an S-Class 2930RL

    Should take 2-3 months to get built and delivered. We are very excited.

    What are some of the recent production changes on the Solitide S-Class line (like the CRE-3000 equalizers as an example)?

    Open to ideas and suggestions on DIY items to do when it comes in.

    You should look into upgrading your axles and disc brakes from the factory. I just ordered a Reflection that won't be completed until the end of August. I guess you can't order custom axles and disc with the reflection but you can with the Solitude.

    Axles are 7K, did not have disc brake option upgrade in the S-Class or I would have in a heartbeat!

    I would double check with the dealer you ordered from. Some people on here said they ordered their Solitude with diffrent axles along with disc brakes. I asked about doing the same on the reflection I order and was told only Solitude has that option.

    Also were you given a date of completion for your trailer. I ordered the 367bhs and was told hopefully we will receive it last week of August.

    We purchased our 2020 2930 last February, heading from Pittsburgh to Disney our fridge died in out old trailer. Traded in Orange Park FL. We really enjoy our trailer. I did purchase large storage containers for under the bed storage. It did not come with a CD player, and using our dish, I installed a wireless AV signal unit in order for the bedroom TV to work. Good Luck, Ed

    Thanks! As for disc brakes, looks like GD switched to the following - https://www.etrailer.com/Trailer-Bra.../HSE7K-T1.html

    I may eventually upgrade myself (I have replaced suspension parts and brakes (including complete assemblies) on campers as well as on my prior truck (had to replace brake lines, hydro-boost, rear calipers, rotors, pads, etc.). I am comfortable with making the proper wiring connections, mounting the hardware and running/connecting the brake lines. I think there was a place in Indiana that would do the job for around $2600 (I would gladly pay that if still available). Wonder if there are places near here (in MD) that would do the same?

    Disc brakes and 8K axles are not an option on the s-class models.
