Check out Blue Notch canyon, just south of Hite. Nice rugged drive that takes you to the lake, you can camp right at the lake. Shows a campground there but that was long ago, no campground. Ron

Turned out good!

Ok, got it done, did just that Bill, was able to get in thru the panel and mount the light and locate the wiring and make all connections. I only installed 1 light, put it on passenger side. Ron

Anyone have a good way to locate the rear exterior flood light wiring. 2016 Eagle. The wiring is there, don't want to tear anything up trying to access it. Ron

I'm running Dakars with extra leaf and OME shocks in the rear, Icon coil overs up front and B F Goodrich KM2 load range E tires.

I have and Eagle shell on a 2009 Tacoma. If your going with the smaller FWC such as Eagle, Fleet then you will need to stay with a smaller truck, not a full size truck as some have mentioned. I would consider an older style Tundra to be a medium size at the most. Tacoma will do fine with the...

People do, but campfires are not allowed in Valley of the Gods. Just so you know. Ron

You are exactly right, they will make it right, good people. Ron

May be concerned with lube attracting dust and dirt. Ron

You can also purchase aluminum poles from Oz Tent in different telescoping lengths, a little pricey but I like them. And they come with guy ropes too. Ron

You will need the lift assist struts. I'm 60 yr. old male with a shoulder injury also and added a 23# solar panel to my roof. Granted I could lift it without the assist but they sure do make it easier. Ron

You can also buy the propane box kit from Four Wheel campers. The space on the back of the camper is already framed in. Just cut out the siding and install the exterior door. Ron

My 2016 Eagle does have the trim edge on it. It still hurts! Search metal edge trim on Ebay, lots of it there. Ron

Like I said just a thought. Thinking that some may be pushing on the panel itself on putting too much stress on the hinge. Only other possibility I too can think of is bad hinge, as in not properly mounted to the panel. Ron

I believe it is mostly user error, get the roof all the way up before you start pushing on the panel. Just a thought. Ron

You can do a search on Ebay for the tubing, plenty of it there.

I too have wondered why they don't use aluminum, could be a fatigue problem long term. May want to think hard about it. Ron

I prefer to not mount on the camper itself. Ron

I would go ahead and seal it but it is on the outside of the vinyl fabric. Ron

They are made, similiar to a unistrut nut, if your familiar with them. You could grind down two opposing corners and make one work I believe. Ron

Remove just 1 screw and take off the rail end cap, it's no problem. Ron

You and I are very much alike in what you have stated. Keep on keeping on! Ron

If you can't find one you can always make your own. Ron

I too have a new Eagle shell. I installed a 150 watt panel myself on my Yakima tracks. Got the panel for 165.00 and I believe it only weighs 23 pounds. I did buy the Blue Sky solar 3000 MPPT controller which I believe was about $250.00 but it all works just great, no more worry of properly...
