nice job......a different approach In 1951, my grandmother entered me in a drawing at a local grocery store in San Leandro Ca.....I won, and went home with exactly that radio....spent a good part of my childhood glued to that bakelite radio...especially Saturday mornings listening to a program...

you won't find these hanging around https://portland.craigslist.org/grg/rvs/6211713830.html

that was quick....

the awning will be mounted on the bottom of the top section...that extrusion is 4" wide which may interfere with the electrical plug at the driver front...but the motor for the EIDE is on the top of the top section...actually above the top section on the rack Make it work...that's an...

I can't believe they get that kind of money for a latch and don't include mounting screws...really pathetic you can get brass/stainless/chrome in good quality but you think these are expensive.... :wacko:

you have a very understanding wife Ripper here's a link for latches and catches http://www.vintagetrailersupply.com/category-s/391.htm pinch latches for the uppers http://www.vintagetrailersupply.com/category-s/393.htm BTW....don't use any pulls or latches with protruding ends.....they...

they should work...the running lights are so sensitive to broken grounding...I'd clean up the contacts real good before installing anything new....sometimes the old bulb had only one teeny weeny ground made and removing it breaks the ground....and leaves a crudy surface for the new bulb to ground on

me too Happyjax....but they do have all the bells and whistles...standard

occasionally here on the classified section....Craigslist....Oregon, California, Arizona, Utah, New mexico.......the dryer the state the better the interior condition...but not always look for water staining, black rings around the interior screws...darkened corners of the interior and staining...

any should fit.......you may have to remove the liner portion on the tailgate....give it a try first...there's usually an inch or so. The tailgate width revisions have been the issue and with older pickups the width was fine

A friend of mine just bought an 820...and a 920 is being released..nice well made campers as far as I can see http://www.truckcampermagazine.com/news/tcm-exclusive-2018-cirrus-920/ and a TCM review of the 820 http://www.truckcampermagazine.com/camper-reviews/2017-cirrus-820-review/ alot of...

In situations like this I try and follow the "Value Engineering" down the road until it comes to an end...there is usually a product or two which has failed and the company went out of business....but the insurance companies are still in business...maybe under another name but a bit of tracking...

All good points...Willys, I'd like to see one of those vent applications.... I've done a fair amount of construction defect management over the years and moisture intrusion is often the culprit....but water easily in doesn't evacuate so easily....those small vents placed properly could solve...

BMI....sorry for the nasty experience...I've often thought about the waterproofing success of vinyl window flashings. I've seen several water intrusion issues which could be attributed to those seals....did Brian make any indication of what his opinion was? New materials don't always predict...

you did a nice job on the refurb Willys.....very nice ;) Whatever you load on the roof....max boat weight is 250# per Alaskan....and even distribution of the weight Alaskan regularly installs solar/AC and did have a boat rack for a while.....Eide had an Alaskan rack as well...no longer since...

Thanks for that link...I tow a boat with a bow height which limits available space when turning...it gets pretty close....but that link had some other parts I'm interested in....those brackets would work under the truck with a brush plate

yes...limit the boat weight to 250# or less correct.....do not load the boat with the top up.....if you can, lock the top down after lowering it and before loading the boat...at least the front...that way the strain will be put on the locking mechanism rather than the cylinders Straight up and...

mount the panel on the camper body itself....and you will be able to mount 250# of boats over the back edge...the torsional pull from the rear is the issue...it tends to deform the cylinders in the front. Using the Eide, the pressure is on the front of the camper when mounting...vertical weight...

Kris....First...welcome to the crowd I purchased a CO last year in Washington...it had it's own plate....as did the vehicle it was sitting on..... my bet is that in Washington you will need a plate on it...everything is plated but you should pose that question to a local Department of Motor...

Keith.....help is available.... a better solution... CAMP MORE...... :D

Our tank is plumbed into the system and under the passengers side seat ...but it required a cut on the siding to get it there...it's been like that for a long time and it's a pain to remove and fill but a 20# tank lasts a very long time. I'm looking at a Manchester horizontal tank, mounted...

it's about friggin time....well done..... :)

I believe the salt lake owner is talking about the hydraulic cylinders inside the camper....it's common to add valves to equally distribute the pressure on all 4 uniformly... I was talking about the exterior hydraulic jacks and the mod to the bracket to accommodate their use I believe the one...

the one in salt lake city is the better deal from what I can see of the unit...the other one has some staining...not rot staining but wet none the less...and all over staining as well fair price on the one in Salt Lake...a little work to be done but that's the way most come...clean interior...

price is high for the year and the interior...jacks are nearly 750 new and pirelli is 100 just for the material.....all these considerations.... and you have local competition for Alaskans as well
