cushions wife fixed up for me. A little fu-fu for me but thhats the price of this rig sitting in the driveway.

Here is the breaker box and that little toggle switch is the only switch in the camper . Im thinking it is for the porch light but it does not work because the fixture is in bad shape,

thanks guys, I am still looking at the lighting,scratching my head alot. Table. No hardware or screw holes suggesting removed hardware on front wall or ceiling. I would say that the ceiling is original. I would have thought the table would be used as support for a bunk. Today I replaced all...

thanks thisold, I have the aluminum bracket that stretches over the window for the table to catch, that works as it should, but the table is to narrow when lowered to the bunk position. Ill take a pic today of that. i will check for dual switches I will check on the perrelli

Ive finally got started digging into the camper I posted a quedtion about window seals and thought I would contain all this in one post. Question # 1 My dinette table wont fit in the bench grooves to make up the bunk. Previous ownerhade made up some plywood slats to cover the span. So what...

The Alaskan is not powered.

It seems alot of folks like the fantastic fan . My question is how does the refit go and can you fish wire through the roof fairly easy? Thanks, Bob

Thanks guys, I looked at a beefy trailer yesterday that a guy had on CL the box was 81 longh by 50 wide. My plan is to pull the trailer with the alaskan mounted in it. bob

How dumb on my part. Of course it is a CO (carbon monoxide) detector, not a CO2 (carbon dioxide) detector! As to removing the closet and refrigerator cabinet was the best thing for my needs and I have never regretted it. It is much more flexible as to storage and movement inside the camper...
