Sorry for delay on answer, getting old, That quote included a repair or new front lift panel, not sure they can match the white laminate. Replacing headliner and new insulation in roof and the liner. $ 3100

Ah, someone who knows radios..:-) Appears might have more range then GMRS? but only 2 watts? The Scorpio for Harley is movement of bike only? This Dakota says can detect movement at 80 ft. Have to call them about in vehicle charger for new smaller receiver with smaller antenna, and if...

Looking for a portable system that will inform me that someone or thing is around my rig, when I'm off hunting or fishing nearby. I know there are probably some that will communicate with cell phone, but most times, I'm way out of range of any cell service.. Been looking at this one which...

Sorry about the confusion Stew, I knew the ATC liner has the awnings, I thought you were referring to a new FWC liners. IMHO, I can't stay dry in a closed up tent in high humidity and rain blowing sideways. Would sweat my butt off. And, my exhaled breath would be condensing on the ceiling...

Appears different type valves were used, over the yrs. mine on 99 Grandby. I was told not to put a brass valve into the plastic threads of tank, can tear them up. And got tired of leaking Camco junk valves. So, I used a Pex type valve I found at Home Depot with male pipe thread on one end...

Just got quote from ATC $ 3100 to replace my problem, and about a month wait.

Yes, my total roof length is 130" and over hang 2' 8". Did not realize new Grandby's dimensions were different. This looks like "in the way" but suppose one would get used to them. But if constantly used as pull up handles, how do they hold up? And seems most gas struts last about a year...

About the new models???? I see all those lift struts,???? leads me to believe the new roof is much heavier then mine???? And the struts are right in the way of getting up into the bed area??

If I wasn't an A&P, I'd be in poor house.. I still would prefer the carbon fiber lift panels, perhaps I could put those in myself first. But, that one piece roof looks like a lot less leak chasing, which I'm getting tired of. It is certainly good to get some references, thank you. The old FWC...

With good piece of sealed and painted wood should work OK, I have a fiberglass 2x4 that could be used, but thought on washboard rd. I might hear it bouncing...?? Now have to get truck over to welder and get spot welds re-done. I also can where I bolts through bed sheet metal are starting to...

I did go by ATC, too.....it's just the look of their operation appears "here today gone tomorrow" sort off. And, they will not use more modern materials, so they told me about 3 yrs ago anyway. They could not offer the composite end lifting plates or newer one piece roof. The wood end plate...

I have a 99 Grandby with about 3000 cycles on the top. I went up to Woodland to see about a new liner and found out no longer are outer storm flaps used.... I can't Imagine how to cross ventilate in a blowing rainstorm without them?? I made some stand off blocks with wood and Velcro which hold...

thanks, ordered two from Grainger $11

Got my 1999 Grandby on a stock 2002 long bed Chev 1/2 ton with Air-Lifts and Bilstiens. Air lifts at 70# seemed to stop all sway problems stayed with stock 245 tires but went to 10 ply rating. Toyo A/T Open Country's at 50 psi. Fantastic tires...got me through some ice and snow on single track...

I've been using a Wave 3 since my 99 Grandby was new in 1999 to over 9000 ft. and near 0 degrees in the Grandby, with it's only 3000 btu's when below freezing it will take some time to bring temp. up if it was shut off at night. I've had zero problems with it. Before the original maker sold...

Kind of look like dock bumpers from Graingers: http://www.grainger.com/product/22NT80?cm_sp=HIO-_-HIDP-_-RR_VTV_P&cm_vc=IDPRRZ11&zoneId=IDPRRZ11 How thick are they?

My 99 Grandby now on it's second Chev. 1/2 ton is moving enough forward with turnbuckles tight to break spot welds on front panel of truck bed. Seems new truck sheet metal is crap. Anyway, I called FWC and they have what they call "bumpers" for $ 40, I know you guys must be using something...

What gets me, is the new design does not have the outside storm flaps? I tried to get FW to make me a new liner with flaps and they will not. I wonder how people like others looking into the camper at night when windows are open for ventilation? Or keep blowing rain from coming in???? I have...
