    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West What are the wind speed limitations for Mounting and de-mounting an FWC

    I can tell you I've done it in 20-25knot winds and it was SKETCHY. The camper was really swaying. I told myself that I would just wait it out next time.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Bamboo Countertop Upgrade

    Wondering if anyone knows where FWC is sourcing their new bamboo countertops, or where a similar material can be purchased. Saw the bamboo in a friends new Hawk and it looks great, time for an upgrade.

    Nice work, and you avoided cutting a 5 inch hole in your camper! I'll call that a win.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Picking up Hawk in 2 Months - Questions

    If its pre-wired for solar it will have an SAE plug on the roof and on the back of the camper for a portable panel. Make sure you check the polarity of the plugs with a multimeter before plugging in any solar panels though. Some of the SAE plugs they use (I think the Zamp brand) have reverse...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Update Awning for Hawk

    I purchased an ARB awning and used Mule Expedition Outfitters' jack bracket mounts. It's been a great setup. https://dasmule.com/collections/four-wheel-camper-parts-accessories/products/mule-four-wheel-camper-arb-awning-brackets-pre_order

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West From propane to diesel, a heater installation

    I've only just started using the heater so I'm not sure how gross the combustion chamber is. All my research / videos online would suggest that running it at a low setting will soot up the chamber but then subsequently running it on high for 30-60 minutes should help clear it out. I also...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West From propane to diesel, a heater installation

    I agree with all of the comments above. It doesn't really make sense to me either. I'm not an engineer, just a dumb pilot and all I know is that I woke up to a basically dry camper and I was really really happy. My hopes were not high, as it was relatively warm and humid conditions, especially...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West From propane to diesel, a heater installation

    Returned from my work trip and "finished" the heater. It's usable but not 100% done. It fit on the camper perfectly, no risk of crushing the intake or the exhaust. Phew! First step was to fill the hole in the external cover. I cut a piece of sheet aluminum, painted it, and epoxy-ed it to the...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West From propane to diesel, a heater installation

    I ran the fuel line as close to the camper as possible to make sure there's enough clearance when the camper goes back on the truck. The end goal was to get the fuel line into the propane compartment. If I had gone straight back into the compartment, the fuel line would have come into the...
