    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Upgrade Tires/Suspension for 2010 Frontier

    Another Frontier! I have an 07' frontier king cab with an 07 Eagle on it. When I first got the camper I was running longer shackles in the rear and some beefy front coils on Nissan titan shocks. Needless to say the rear leafs sagged out pretty quick and was nearly riding on my bump stops in...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Furnace won't light

    I have a similar story, I went out camping this last weekend and I kept getting the "ignition lockout fault" (three blinks of the LED). fan spins, burner ignites for maybe 2-3 seconds then stops, three times then locks out. well after trying that maybe a dozen times and reseting with the...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Northwest Meet?

    Oregon Side of Hells canyon would be great. I spent MANY of summers out in the Idaho side as I was going to UofI out there. go for a loop route? seems like we could probably gamble on less rain and more sun just getting east of the cascades, tons of land to explore out there. anyone wantto...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Northwest Meet?

    I am sure there is a topic around here somewhere, but has anyone tried to pull together a FWC/ATC meet in the Northwest? There is an RV show coming up mid September here in Portland that may be an interesting venue to meet and check out some local set ups? I know FWC is planning on attending...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Another Awning

    nice truck! I have the same but with a little lift on it. do you have overload springs, Timbrens or airbags? I killed my stock springs when I first got my camper, they were warped over the axle. I love the tarp set up. I did a similar set up but used small stainless boat cleats on the...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Rusty Brackets

    Tomas, I think those pics stan posted were for the new Rieco Titan 2 piece brackets (steel)? They're pricey too ($30/ea?) for something that will quickly rust, plus new hardware! Seems like it would be pretty straightfoward to make a 2 piece aluminum bracket in the same manner? hmmm...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Been a while since I posted, update

    Once again I find it being several months since I last posted. Since I was on here last a couple more mods have been completed on the truck/camper. 1. added additional solar panels to get 55watts of output. It is a noticable difference from the 10watts I had before! 2. truck got a...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West coleman 12v cooler?

    Sounds like air in the propane lines. I had that happen for a while and ended up pulling the shroud that surrounds the flame and cleaning the burner slots that the gas comes out of. used some pipe cleaners and compressed air. started it up after that and it ran like a champ and has been for...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Where Only A Pop-Up Could Go!

    go to youtube and type in "Four wheel camper elephant hill" I think I put 3 or 4 videos from last year climbing up elephant hill with the camper on. Some endero motorcycle guys at the bottom decided not go up, there yet a big, heavy, wide, hard sided camper. but to each there own, I think...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Camping with Jacks

    I take my camper off nearly every time I go camping, just for the day or afternoon while we go out and get firewood or maybe go wheeling in areas you dont want to drag your camper through (as shown in the second picture on our quest to a lookout tower, winch saved me). I NEVER get in it while...

    Comment by 'davidshourd' in media 'Other people leaving'

    you were looking down shafer trail from the top, point straight out. just down there. take shafer trail down and then to the left then it circles around in shafer canyon and eventualy becomes potash road. the river crossing is just past the bathroom/camp spot on your left.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Started Some Mods

    Interesting mods. I'm surprised you had some dry rot already. Figure out where the moisture came from? It was only in each of the VERY front bottom corners of the bed over cab area. I think it had a potential from three things. 1. from the seal note seating all the way on the roof when in...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Started Some Mods

    Some updated pictures of where I ended up. The stainless counter is a really nice addition. I used a 1/2"x1/2" aluminum angle along the edge, notched it at the radiused corner to bend it around. it keeps items like the cutting board from sliding off while going down those bumpy roads. I also...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Carbon Monoxide Alarm and flimsy Timbrens

    On my truck the round metal piece that the actual rubber spring bolts to are clamped using the leaf springs to the top of the leaf spring. then there is a "bump stop" plate built into the frame that makes contact. probably a little different for every vehicle. but they never seem to get...

    half way up elephant Hill

    Even the Germen bikers had to get off and walk it! We got to the top and then turned around and went to Peekaboo campsite in lieu of heading deeper and down the back side.
