    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West 4 days on The Devil's Hiway

    Thanks for the update on the Diablo. I was going to try that route 8 years ago, it was highly recommended by a retired Park Service friend. Made it to the wilderness boundary before Border Patrol pulled up behind me. After he decided that I wasn't one of the bad guys, he highly encouraged me to...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Grand Canyon noob.

    Kilroy, South Rim Grand Canyon. If you are looking for wilderness camping there are two areas that I know. First is down the forest service road just east of Grandview point off of RT 64. You will need to drive south on this gravel road about one mile to exit the Park boundry and onto forest...

    Manxman The water tank in the camper is 8x16x39 and I held it off the wall 3/4". This water tank sits on the 8" side and flexes 3/4 " when filled to top.

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Scary moment on a casual inspection

    Shridhar I also have a Titan with stock springs and air bags that carry the All Terrain Ocelot. On my first trip with the camper, after driving a washboard road, my turn buckles were very loose and one was swinging. My solution was to reinforce the truck bed eye bolts, shim between the wheel...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Portable Shower

    This is a hand pump garden type sprayer converted to a solar shower. I found the sprayer at Wmart in the paint dept. The hose that was included is too short so I bought vinyl water tubing in the same size at the hardware store. The wand is then attached to the tubing and on to the shower head...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Ladder/Stair

    I will second that it is solidly built. In the short time that I have had my camper, this is the forth system that I've tried for entry/exit. All were fine for entry, but bad on exit. On the last trip I lost my coffee tripping out of the camper one morning, totally unacceptable behavior, and...

    I wasn't happy with my current step stool setup so am giving this product a try. Xtend&Climb Folding Step Stool model WT3. Not field tested yet but very good first impressions. I needed a safer entry climb for the grandkids and guests into "The Magic Box".

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West New ATC Ocelot Shell Buildout

    Shoestring, This build got away from me and I did much more than planned. If you're still in the planning stage I recommended the two inch sidewall extension, and any in wall penetrations or wiring for future items and switches. I had ATC install everything on the outside that I didn't want...

    Bill, Thanks for the ideas for the deadfall seat back support. I will try the Velcro version first. As far as being ingenious, thankyou, but I think I stole the seat back design from somebody, maybe Bisleybud.

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West New ATC Ocelot Shell Buildout

    Installed a quick connect valve from the water tank drain line to the outside rear floor. Now when in camp I have access to gravity fed water when outside. This was a must for me. I use it to fill kettle, wash hands, shampoo hair, ect.

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West New ATC Ocelot Shell Buildout

    Time to head back outside. Removed the backup camera from the tailgate and installed it on the bottom overhang of the camper. Installed a large 3/4" plywood step on the bumper drop area. Also, I found this book to be a very good read.
