    King Bed Upgrade size?

    King size option is well worth it in my opinion. Plenty of room and no climbing over for the late night wake ups.

    Put my Alucab Awning on, without drilling ;)

    Keep us posted on how your mounting system works out. I love the idea. Are the aluminum L brackets just bolted to the awning frame on each end?

    Fleet front dinette vs. side dinette

    The front dinette blocks both windows. We have a front dinette and usually leave it made into a bed. Nice place lounge on a rainy day or dark evening.

    FWC not permitted at Washington State Park Tent sites

    We just returned from a trip to Canada. No problem camping in any site and the campgrounds were clean and well patrolled. It seems that camping in California is getting worse in regards to parties, generators, dirty restrooms, and lack of proper management.

    Water Pump Concern

    Mine does that. Also mine has started to run continuously even when the faucet has turned off. Still pumps water but I need to turn it off when not using or I hear the pump going.

    Propane Tank not working?

    So you're saying I'm not out of the woods. I think maybe a valve replacement is a good idea. I don't want to be shut down on a trip.

    Propane Tank not working?

    Disconnecting and opening the tank slowly seems to have fixed the flow problem. I did need to disconnect, connect and open the valve slowly a few times before the problem seemed to fix itself. I ran it for a few hours this morning. Hopefully it continues to work. Thanks for the advice!

    Propane Tank not working?

    Again, thanks for the advice. Do the Dometics cycle on propane? By this I mean will the pilot periodically go off if the refrigerator is at temp and then relight? I thought I heard my pilot click while sitting outside.

    Propane Tank not working?

    Thanks for the suggestions. I haven't bothered with checking these ideas yet, instead just using my other tank. I'll check the other when I get home. Thanks again to the great community for chipping in ideas and experiences.

    Propane Tank not working?

    My refrigerator pilot stops working when it is hooked up to one of my tanks even though the tank is full. I hook it up to the other and no problem with the pilot. Anyone else ever have this problem?

    2007 FWC Hawk Norcold Orifice removal

    Sounds like a bad thermocouple or the pilot flame is not hitting the thermocouple enough to generate the millivolts needed to keep the gas valve open.

    Thanks. I'll look into the COE info. I've yet to try the dispersed camping but summer is coming.

    Resource or App for Campgrounds

    I think the electronic is all well and good but does anyone have a recommendation for a good old fashioned print atlas that shows national forest campgrounds? The AAA maps only show Woodalls recommended campgrounds. I used to have an atlas which showed the National Forest Campgrounds but can't...

    Crossing the CA border with FWC

    The US customs made me give up lemons even though they were purchased in the US. The ag inspector complemented the FWC though.

    Ratcheting Cargo Bar for roof lift

    Do people remove the tripod base from the speaker stand? Seems as though the base would make raising the front difficult.

    Zamp 160 Roof Install

    I recently installed a Kyocera 160W panel on my Grandby. I used aluminum angle to mount on the Yakima tracks. I put an additional spacer under the aluminum angle because another member posted that the roof hit the mounts while going down the road. Works great so far.

    rear solar socket not working

    Bwht4x4- Did you buy the solar package from FWC? I assumed that those solar wires in the battery box were tied in to both the rear wall plug and the roof plug. I haven't seen any other place where there might be wires.

    Bwht4x4, Thanks for getting back with some more pics and explanation. I didn't even know you could buy more of the sliders, that will be next on my list of things to get as I prep for my solar install. I also have the dual battery set up in my Grandby. My dad just gave me a controller so I just...

    roof solar plug/socket weather integrity

    Are those bolts going into the metal sliders that sit in the Yakima racks? Nice set up. I was just going to bolt onto the Yakima bars but this looks like the way to go.
