    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West New Hawk to me

    Hello, I just wanted to introduce myself and show off my long awaited Hawk. I purchased this 2007 FWC from Mississippi sight unseen. I then had it shipped to Pennsylvania. It was delivered in a late Feb. massive snowstorm. I finally got it cleaned up and mounted this month. I wanted to thank...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Another Roof Lifting Mechanism

    Great idea! I am very interested in how you build that lift. I looked at the threads on the strut assisted lifts but can never ever determine how much weight I might need to lift for a given trip. Many have suggested that if you install the large struts capable of lifting serious weight on the...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West auxillary battery ground in a FWC?

    pods8- I have learned a lot from you, and I will no longer use the word ground when referring to these 12V systems. I couldn't help myself based on the schematic found in the surepower pdf file. I look forward to installing a solar panel in the near future and will hit you up for more info...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West auxillary battery ground in a FWC?

    Hey Leadsled9, I have a hawk and when I pulled off that cover the Sureflow water pump was exactly where your separator is mounted. I want to mount my separator model 1314 200amp next to the water pump. I'm a little concerned because it's next to all that plumbing and pump. More importantly, I'm...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West auxillary battery ground in a FWC?

    Thanks for the reply Stan. I guess I'm a little confused now. When you say ground the Aux to the frame, are you refering to the ground that's coming from the truck(which is already in the duplex wire} or does that mean a new ground bolted to the frame from the camper? Will that mean I will need...

    Leadsled and or Camelracer, I just received my Sure power separator this week(model 1314 200amp). I also ordered and received a 12volt marinco receptacle catalog# 12VBR. This is the end coming from the truck battery. Tommorow I'll pick up the 10 gauge 2 wire (stranded). First question, where or...

    Here is a picture of the area camelracer is talking about. It is the lower, right hand corner of the cabinet face. In the picture I have removed the doors over the water tank....as well as the small wood panel that the separater is mounted under. One picture is to show you where to look, the...

    Stan and Mtn thanks for the reply. I was trying to make sense of everything in the snow at dark. In retrospect the post reads pretty bad. So, thanks again for all the patience. Stan no question... I have got a lot to learn. My wife reminds me of that everyday :blink: Camelracer yes that's the...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West FWC hawk ?

    I was wondering if someone could give me any information on the power supply cord hanging out of a 2007 FWC hawk model. I have never used this type of prong before. Do I need to run a line from the starter under the hood? Also, where would the aux. battery hook up be found. I see the converter...
