H & T and J.R. Enterprise are one and the same. If your local dealer does not have the parts you need you can get them from J.R. and they send them fast in most cases you will get them within 3 days.

H & t is a old name It stands for Hi-Lo and Towlite That was the name of the parts store When Hi-Lo ran it them self.

Due to recent events, J.R. Enterprises is no longer selling Hi-Lo parts.

As of 4/1/2010 you will be able to order them direct from the Hi-Lo co.

Look here for contact information.

Default J&R

The owner of J&R (Greg Stanley) died but his son-in-law has been able to reopen the business,. with Greg's former employee. Web site is JR REPAIR and email is jrrepair@centurylink.net They are open and trying to supply parts and do repairs for Hi-Lo owners (and repairs to any brand.) If you need parts, give them a try.

Default Factory Hi-Lo Parts

As of March 2, 2012, I verified that the source for factory Hi-Lo Parts is:

hiloparts@gmail.com
Phone no. is 419 886-0008 Mon.-Fri, 8:30-4:30 "Joel"

Apparently the history is: JR got in money trouble and had to sell out. He sold to Greg Stanley who died. Now Joel has the parts business.

Not to dispute your post, but where did you get this information. Greg Stanley died about a year and a half ago, but the business reopened a short while later.

Lloydinmd,

Joel's company is a competing business with J & R. J & R still sells HiLo parts. When the HiLo factory auctioned off their equipment and inventory, J & R bought a majority of the parts. I will be seeing Jim & Rob day after tomorrow when I take my trailer down to them for some work. I will get a correct response to your statement from them and post it here on the forum.

Bob

J & R (Jim & Rob) have been in business for more than 12 years, and jim worked for hi-lo (In there current location in butler ohio) since 1966 and rob is the son-in-law of one of the original owners. they did all the warantee(goof up)work on new hi-lo's and did and still do repairs and rebuilds on all travel trailers. they do not bad-mouth their competitors, as their work will speak for itself,as time has told this story before, and their help to all that ask go's without saying. I am a happy j&r previous and current customer

Took my HiLo to J & R today to have some work done prior to camping season. Had a nice visit with Jim & Rob. YES, J & R is still alive and well doing business. They do sell HiLo parts and repair HiLo trailers and other brands. They are still at the same location - 145 W Elm St, Butler, Ohio 44822, and their phone number is the same - 419-883-3001. Give them a call, they are glad to talk to their customers. Hope this clears up some confusion from a previous post.

Thanks for the report. I'm glad to hear they are doing fine. Their building is where the original HiLo factory was. The last HiLo building was built to make Towlite trailers, then eventually everything moved in there. I guess there is a bit of a story that goes along with that. (Trivia for today.)

Ditto Bob's post, except I didn't travel to J & R. But I did have a nice phone visit with Rob, and we both had a good chuckle over the report of J & R Enterprise's demise. Tweaking a famous Mark Twain quote: "Reports of their closure have been greatly exaggerated!"

Go team J & R!!

Maybe the other place wishes that JR Repair was closed.

Smile New non-telescoping trailer from Hi-Lo!

Someone in another thread reported that they had heard some of the old Hi-Lo folks were developing a new trailer. So just out of curiosity, I typed in the old www.hilotrailer.com web address to see if there had been any changes. Much to my surprise I discovered (although I may be the last member of HTF to know this) that not only have they begun offering a new line of trailers, named "Midget," but also that they are refurbishing Hi-Lo Trailers and have two for sale.

In photos on the site, the "Midget," really looks pretty cute, and I like the A/C setup. Personally it would be too small for our current needs, but I can see the appeal for campers who have light duty tow vehicles.

The two rebuilt Hi-Lo's they have also look very clean (price isn't bad either).

Jim

Brought my trailer home last night from J&R in Butler. Jim & Rob performed their magic on my rig and now it is better than new. These guys are fantastic at what they do. I am all set for the camping season now with the exception of my wife's "honey-do" project. I have pulled out the carpeting in the front lounge section and will be installing Allure Oak Plank Flooring throughtout the trailer. The only carpet will be in the rear bedroom. The flooring is a floating floor. The planks adhere to each other and come close to the color of the interior woodwork. I got it at Home Depot.

Hi Bob,

I really like your flooring idea. Please post some photos after you finish.

Default Flooring

Retired camper 47,,ve read in another camping forum where the Allure flooring has been used. It was easy to install and looks great. Have fun with your honeydo project.

Hey Jim, this is weird. I just took a look at the web site and all the pages
look just like the pages I looked at with J&R several weeks ago, and now
the J&R site doesn't have a catalog page.

Hi Richard,

Actually, I don't go to either the J & R or Hi-Lo sites very often. After your post I checked them out, and unless I missed something between visits, both sites seem about the same as the last time I was there (except for the changes regarding the Midget). I don't remember J & R ever having parts listed, and the Hi-Lo site has always had parts listed. The J & R site seems to have been under construction since the day it started!

I'll stand corrected if a frequent visitor wants to enlighten me about recent changes to the two sites.

Jim

I know the original post is from 2 years ago but the inside of the Midget is laid out exactly like my Hilo Mojo (except no bathroom like the 16' one has). Same interior colors as well. If they used the same dinette cushions, they bottom out when you sleep on them (foam is not all that dense) so you would need a pad.
