Yes, project is done... i'll have to get some pictures

That is really sad but will be a good project for someone.

south and north saline valley roads are snow covered but ok for 2wd with chains or 4x4 w/o chains. any new storms can change that though.

the auto switch sounds really good. The last few nights of camping i though i'd have to get out at 3 am or so to change the tank. I'll look for the auto switch unit.

One time i had to fill the tank on the road. I didn't have anything so I used a 1 gallon water jug to hold the water and a 20 oz plastic soda bottle cut into a funnel to pour the water into. Now i just keep a funnel in the camper. to help make the angle better i heated the funnel and reshaped...

Those old books are great! I have a few of the Stanley Paher books and some others that cover so cal and the lower colorado river area. Wonderful books for anyone interested in the history of the area.

Here is a cut and paste from lq's camper threaad Duane,I checked the dual regulator but did not come up with a name,I do know that the same one in pictures are to be had at any r.v. store as they are used on all trailers that have two tanks,seems like they cost around $45-$60. I think the fwc...

That is an awesome mod. Microwaves are really nice to have camping. :thumb:

A fullsize shortbed is how I roll. Looks and functions great!

Would it be ok to use a std 20LB vertical propane tank on the ground, next to the camper as a backup? I have a few of these tanks and didn't want to purchase a horizontal tank. I know the vertical tanks can't be used on their side. All I would need is a hose from the vertical tank to the...

I wouldn't bother with that solar system. Id go for around 150W or more. If you were to get a converter/charger i'd get a quality unit that will maintain the batteries. The converter that is in my camper will cook the batteries if left on. It isn't a charger. My solar system doesnt keep up...

I just took the red cross wilderness first aid and delayed response great class and i highly recommend. the book they use is Mountaineering First Aid Guide http://www.amazon.com/Mountaineering-First-Aid-Accident-Response/dp/089886478X

this time of year i put at least one pair in the truck. if i'm going offroading then i'll carry 2 pair just in case of icy/snow conditions. The recent snowstorm in southern ca is a good example why to carry chain "insurance" I use scc quick grip std steel link chains for lt trucks...

Nothing says fun like a FWC on a 4x4 towing a boat :thumb:

i've tried two of these but cant get them to last much more than 6 -12 months. 33" tires and used to inflate all four a few times per months. i put on my own gauge and quality hose. oh well, pretty good price and much better airflow than comparably priced units.

Very nice. you really brought out the beauty of the sierras in those pics.

Whoa doggy, nice pics.

how about a camper to replace the truck bed himmmmmm. i love it that would be great!

Yes I have 12V and 110 inverter power outlets outside of the camper. You might consider a flush mount marinco 12 receptacle for a cleaner appearance.

Clean looking truck. It should last you many miles.

Here is the foot switch I made. Just a momentary switch in a box. It would be better to use a "foot switch" but they were more money. To use the electric pump you turn on the pump master switch on the FWC control panel and then push the foot switch for water. When traveling just velcro the...

Sun man, that is an expensive pantry ;) J/kidding with you. Nice job.

The Garmin GPS 60x models are good for handheld use. The expandable memory is the one you want to get. It uses two AA batteries. The 478 is nice for truck use. I use city navigator and topo maps.

Nightlight LED with switches mounted to fan. one is solid red. the other is a multi color slow changing led. All were purchased from superbright leds. Added some anti slip stuff from lowes to storage compartment and refrigerator.

I replaced my original LEDs with these new ones. They are brighter and give off a much nicer light. Old LED New LED Added cupholder / junkholder to bunk
