I had National Springs on the '83 Toyota truck and was impressed with them. This past year I had them make me a custom set of four coils for the 4 Runner. They do the leaf springs there and have thier sister company design and make the coils elsewhere. The first set of coils were not right...

My Grandby already had a house battery. I am also wired into the main truck charging. You can easily run this off a single camper battery. I also changed all my camper lights to LED to help use less power. For us, we have only once in four years, camped in one spot for more than one night...

All the insulation you see was already there. Yeah, I read about your fridge and wow is all I can say.

Not to get into the discussion of 3-way fridges versus compressor fridges. For us the compressor style will work better for us. Overall this was a very easy and quick swap. Not including a trip to Home Depot for a piece of birch to fill the upper gap (cosmetic) it took about an hour. I still...

Well, I got my materials together for a day to pull the camper and fix the mounts. Overall went well outside of limited access on the driver rear spot. FWC manage to mount the power converter over top the bolt. I ended up drilling a new mounting location 2.5" back from the original one...

Mike, I sent you a PM. Sent you a reply this morning. Did you get it?

Hi all, I just removed my working Norcold 3-way fridge (# 323) from my Grandby. It has been tested and works fine. Used it on our May 21-22 trip on DC and propane and no issues. It was removed so I could switch to a compressor style DC fridge, which will work better for our use. Located in...

If you were in the San Diego area, I would make you a good deal on my Norcold 323 3-way fridge. I am pulling it out and putting in a Nova Kool R2600 compressor fridge. Used the Norcold last weekend and it worked great on DC and propane but my decision to replace it was justified when I tried...

I has been given away to a friend. No longer available.

Here's a few shots from out 1st trip out last weekend.

Is my price too high??? Anyone?

Check the fastgun derringers, they might work out for you, I believe a couple folks are running them around here. Looking at the manufacturer's website, I can't really tell, are these "spring loaded" to absorb some shock or are they just quick disconnects? I don't need quick disconnects as...

One thing to consider after you fix the mount it to get spring loaded tie-down to help to ease the stress on the mount. I had thought about that as well but I seem to only find the Fastgun 45's which won't go short enough. I measured the one that came off and it's 11.25". Any recommendations...

Thanks for the pics Stan. That is basically what I was thinking of but I am going to sandwich a plate top and bottom. Then I am using Grade 8 bolts to hold the eye. My plan is to reinforce all the mounts. 3 of them I can get to with no problems but the rear driver side is located inside the...

I snapped a couple pics of the damage. Sorry for the one out of focus but I was shooting thru the access hole with the camera on the bed floor, shooting up.

No pics yet. I think from the inside it's just a hole but underneath it feels like splintered plywood. I'll know more once I get the camper off the truck. Any ideas you have would be great. I am very surprised the mounting does not go through any metal on the frame. I would think a corner...

Yeah, I had the turnbuckles set per FWC specs. I do think that corner might have already had some damage as I do recall it sitting at a slight angle. I'll have to get it off the truck and repair and then reinforce the mounts. Also need to come up with a way to keep the screws holding the L...

Well, we took out our new Ram truck and FWC Grandby for it's first shakedown run. Did a little over 200 miles total, of which about 40 of that was offroad. Had a good time and enjoyed the camper. I did find when I got home that the front pass. side turnbuckle was laying in the bed. Curious I...

Just wanted to update things from our first trip out. I upgraded the lights to LED as stated above but we had never gone out with the camper before making this upgrade (only owned the FWC for 3 weeks or so). The outside LED's at 200 lumens worked great. Bright enough to do what we needed to...

Yeah, tonight definitely confirmed my decision to switch to a compressor style fridge. So I have the rig parked in the driveway, which is off course on an angle. Guess what??? I can't get the fridge to run in any mode, to cool down before loading food in the morning. My new fridge is in the...

Good info. Never thought about WTW being much different than many other forums regarding registration. I added email contact info but instead of using the @ and . in the address, I used (at) and (dot) as a replacement. This should help keep autobot spam programs at bay.

USB devices charge at 5 volts. Most computer parts run at 5 volts (outside of fans typically). When you plug your USB device into a computer, it is taking the voltage down to 5 volts. These charging adapters that either plug into the wall (110v AC) or car adapter (12v DC) and converting the...

Here is the Nova Kool (originally thought it was Cool with a C) fridge I bought. Mine is all black on the front instead of the white. I do belive this panel can be changed too.

Nice!!!

The Nova Cool fridge is an exact size replacement for the Norcold 3-way. It will be installed and sealed to the interior just like the existing fridge is. This fridge is not a portable unit (like a typical Engel/ARB). If the current Norcold fridge is vented outside using the factory...
