Not sure which awning ATC is running but I just installed a new Fiamma Awning on my FWC. It came with optional brackets to mount on the sidewall of the camper or truck. If the awning is a Fiamma, you might try contacting them to source the brackets.

I was interested until the price went up to $275! WTW must have created too much demand. OH....did we lock in the $203 price?

My 2004 Grandby is like that too but it has a 3-inch riser factory installed under the floor level. I believe it was built for a newer F150. I am planning on removing this to get a better fit as its no advantage to me in terms of more headroom.

I don't think dry weight includes propane and water etc. My point is that a hawk and a grandby with the same options and same amount of gear differ by only 100#. Not much in my opinion. It is a personal choice in the end. :)

But, last time I checked who runs at dry weight? My grandby weighed in at about 1500 pounds when fully loaded and ready to go for a week with supplies and water for 2 guys... Just sayin' Im just sayin that a Grandby will be fine on a 1/2 ton if you have airbags and don't exceed your truck...

Last I checked, the difference between a the dry weight of a grandby and hawk is only 100#. The longer camper on a shortbed will cause the back to squat on the 1/2 ton but the airbags will take care of that. Dont exceed your payload on the truck and you will be fine.

Don't get too excited the key words were "they are able to obtain in the US", which isn't a ton. I don't believe any of the covered combination units are available. :( I guess I will take what I can get but one of those combo units would be sweet. Overland....you have ordered parts from...

Anyone have or know of a u.s. source for flush mount sinks with lids such as the SMEV, Dometic and/or Spinflo brands. Seems like the good ones are only available overseas? Any leads would be appreciated or if you have one let me know.

Escalante and Capital Reef have plenty of lonely roads, primitive camping opportunities and lots to see. You really can't go wrong anywhere you go. Your head will be on a swivel the entire time.

My used Grandby came with a well used factory rack. Its pretty bent up and I would like to replace it with a yakima system. Is there a source for the 120-inch yakima rails that bolt to the camper roof? Looks like Yakima sells 60-inch max length. Does FWC just use two end to end? Also, if...

My 2004 Grandby has a factory-installed 2-inch riser which I assume was to fit 2004 or newer Ford pickups with higher bed side heights. I just put it on a 1997 F150 and am not happy with the fit. Seems too high over the bed rails and over the cab. Thinking about removing it since it does not...

Installing a 2004 Granby Shell on a 1997 F-150 short bed. Anyone have advice on where to mount the eye bolts? I saw an older thread that recommended the far corners of the bed for a 2000 Granby but my understanding is that the locations may have changed over the years with the newer campers...

Yeah it might be a bit before I can get out with the need for a new rig and my three week old. Plus....I did start ripping into the camper yesterday. Couldnt help myself. I will keep you posted on my progress.

Are these the pictures you were looking for ?? I have a few more save that I can post if this was the camper pics you were looking for ============================================================= Thanks Stan. More pics please if you got em. . .

I was thinking the same thing regarding a camping trip on Whidbey. Even more limiting than the lack of heater at this point is my lack of a carseat-friendly truck. Im on the hunt for an extended cab 1/2 ton 4X4 so if you guys come across one locally let me know. My current truck is a...

http://seattle.craigslist.org/oly/cto/2200460376.html This was just relisted. From the pics, this looks like an older Granby for $600.

OK. Here we go with some pics of the interior with the roof closed.

Enjoyed the thread. Love the SMEV stove and sink setup. Are you still happy with them? Also like the stove over fridge layout. Great use of the space.

pods 8. I took some interior pics yesterday but am having difficulty uploading them from home. I live in the hills and have a poor cellular internet connection. I will post them in town later today. To answer your question, I am not opposed to completely changing the interior layout. It...

Long time lurker of this forum but first time poster. After a long search for a FWC I finally scored on a 2005 Granby Shell for $1000.00 and it was only 45-minutes away! The original owner added a cabinet with a hand pump sink and it has a factory ice box/cabinet. Some additional cabinetry...
