    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West roof lifting helper shocks thingys

    Hey Link, Yes Marty and I installed the struts at ATC. Since they had never installed a set, Marty insisted I bring the camper over and we'd do it together. They've done several sets since then. My camper is an older '96 Grandby with the short overhang and with 40# struts fore and aft, I have...

    Actually, Deltarat is Bob. I'm sure he'll chime in and answer that for me. :) Seriously, we are planning to add a rack and copying Frank's modification for carrying a canoe. When we do, we'll likely do this mod as well. So I've been following this thread and am interested in any and all info...

    We finally got around to fooling with the photo resizer that DD directed us to (thanks very much DD). This is the first test post of that resizer for us. It is the ATC crew on the day we took delivery.

    Very nice welcome to the bob cat club. Did you get the dinette? Frank Thanks. Yes, we got the dinette. Had an older FWC with a couch for years . . . . . we feel this set up will work better for us. I have followed your modifications over the past few months and plan to adopt some of them...

    The resolution of photos straight out of any kind of camera is usually too large to post in most web applications. Most photo album software has an option to "export" photos at smaller dimensions so you can export your photos at say 800 pixels wide and you should be able to upload them fine. You...

    Looks great! You have to realize camper stories are kind of like fish stories. We need photos for proof :D DD, since you are here, what are we doing wrong regarding the posting of photos? Seems we cannot upload any photos greater than 500 kb. Originally tried a photo taken at ATC on delivery...

    You will like your Bobcat! But where are the photos? Another day, another attempt at photos. We used a camera with fewer megapixels and will see if that helps. Here goes . . . . Richard and Ginny

    Yesterday was a big one for us; we picked up our new Bobcat. In order to assure that things would go well, we showed up with the obligatory box of donuts (one of the many tips that I have picked up on this forum :rolleyes: ) As expected, things went smoothly thanks to Marty, Jeff and Don...

    Took the Ice Fields Parkway, Banff to Jaspar, superb. Cassiar Highway remote but stayed at a nice campground at Boya Lake, was iced over on the way up, a spectacular turquoise blue on the way back. Missed a chance to take a scenic flight out of Haines Junction to fly over Wrangell/St Elias...

    Thanks, maybe I should consider taking the ferry to Lab but returning that way as well. Being that it will be September the tourists should be fewer. I like the saying "If it is tourist season why can't we shoot them!" Send me the places that in your opinion are the "must see". Barko, Sorry...

    A few pics of the new Bobcat on a well used and dependable Taco. These shots were taken at the ATC shop and during the shakedown trip on the way home Looks great Cort. Sounds like a nice shakedown trip as well. We are slated to pick ours up on June 7th. I am getting tires (settled...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Heading East - Newfoundland

    I'm planning on going about as far East as you can this coming September. From New Mexico through the states to Nova Scotia and then a ferry to Newfoundland, possibly another short ferry to Labrador which then means taking the Trans- Labrador Highway back to Quebec and a return West. Looks like...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Toytec Suspension Upgrades

    Hello Richard, From just about everything I have read you should at least upgrade the tires that you have. I have done lots of hauling of various types of loads over the years and in my opinion the stock tires will NOT cut it at all. The sidewalls are to flimsy and they are not rated for the...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Fwc Introduces The New "Fleet Model"

    Sure does not look like the "Fleet" I used to own. Looks great. Do you have the taller inside height option? What I did not like about the older Fleet on my 83 Toyota bed was the added width side to side. If I was not careful I would crack my mellon on the overhang checking airpressure...
