    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West 1975 FWC My New Project and First Camper

    I'm going to be installing a roof rack for solar this coming week so I was measuring and inspecting things up there. I've seen lots of talk about roof screws but mine appears to be riveted on? Is that what I'm looking at? I would assume I can drill these out and replace them with screws unless...

    wuck, Thanks for the tank and table info! We got out this week and enjoyed a couple nights in the foothills of PA. No people, no cell service, just us and some good hikes.

    Found some time this week to get moving on some projects before we head out to Utah next month. I've started redoing the electrical wiring, added a fuse block, 100amp/hr battery, & solar controller. I'll get the panel online next week. I also replaced the furnace blower motor while I was in...

    Thanks Old Crow for the reminder on the Trail Tech GPS, I had forgotten that had come out a while back and probably deserves another look for the bikes, although if the mapping applications are working so well these days maybe my iPhone on the dash makes sense. RONR, Thanks for chiming in...

    Old Crow, Thanks for all the info. When you loose the wireless signal does the iPad GPS chip do it's job well enough on locating you and updating your movements? I will have to look into the maps.me and see what kind of details it has. The more I play with Gaia the more I enjoy it, although I...

    I've been back road & trail traveling on my KTM's for 12 years and I have always used a combination of Garimn GPS, paper Maps and my iPhone. I have always felt Garmin could do a better job with their equipment, I started with a 60 series and now have a Montana for the last 4 or 5 years. Is...

    Thanks Vic, for now we will finish the season off without a built in water tank. Maybe I will try and patch it over the winter when I plan on redoing the interior. Our goal this year is to just make it usable and it's close. We are going to Utah for 2-3 weeks in October for rock climbing and...

    I have made some good progress but ran into my first bit of badness. The drain fitting for the water tank split from the tank long ago and the repair that was made was not water tight so there is some rot under the tank. Has anyone successfully repaired their water tank? What did you do...

    Thanks Vic your camper looks great by the way! I was going through your thread about your roof insulation and headliner last night as I need to do something with mine since it just ridged foam at the moment.

    I got my bed board glued and screwed in yesterday so that's a relief. While I had it apart I also rebuilt the 2 upper storage areas while I could access them and made room for future electrical below. For the storage area I used 1/2 Maple Plywood and stainless trim head screws. For the bed...
