    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Northern Vancouver Island BC ?

    No road access to quatsino. You should pick up a copy of backroads map book for vancouver island, It shows all the backroads campsites and has a short description of most of them. It also has a section for backroad attractions.

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Brass lift cylinders

    Im still having some problems with my rams. I ended up grinding the cracks out and soldering them and it held up really good except one ram where i might not have ground out far enough and over the winter the crack started to form again just at the end of the solder. We have a new silicon bronze...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West '77 roof re-skin

    Ripperj I figured out a way to fix the gap at the front. I'm going to slide some plywood in to take up the gap then cut a two inch strip from a spare piece I have to follow the curve of the front. I'll put sealer on the back side of the strip then staple it to the plywood. Then trim goes on. The...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West '77 roof re-skin

    Yes I have a tip. If you are re framing the top potion make sure it is straight front to back and there is no bow to it. I got this camper for free and the previous owner who had lost interest re framed the upper half. the centre was slightly higher than the ends so when I stapled the front down...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Identifying trim pieces

    Bryan sent me these pics, thought I would post them for future reference. The newer Alaskans don't have the gutter at either end just the cleaner looking trim piece, and the trim that goes along the bottom holding the Pirelli on. The rounded edge with the break in it breaks the water running off...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Identifying trim pieces

    I got a few extra pieces of trim with my new roof skin. I think these must have been used on newer camper as Bryan told my father that I would need them and the camper wouldn't have had them in 1977. The first picture is what I believe are the side trim that runs along the bottom edge under the...
