    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Sticky FWC cabinet doors

    We recently purchased a 2005 Eagle and 2 of the cabinets (1 over couch, the other long short cabinet under the sink) have door sliders that are really "sticky" to slide. The upper cabinet above the couch will slide open both directions, but you have to strongly use 2 hands to "pull them apart"...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West DIY Side Mount Table

    @BigRanchInSky, thanks for the reply. I figured it would be too much to travel with, but was curious where it was stowed. What you described makes sense. Appreciate the info, great idea.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West DIY Side Mount Table

    That's pretty awesome, thanks for sharing. Where does the table go when you are driving? Do you remove it and put it inside the camper? Or does it fold up and hang off the side while in transit?

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Moving battery location for 2005 Eagle

    Thanks, I called the FWC factory and the picture that I posted is definitely NOT a connection for the battery. They said what I want to do is splice the pigtail coming out of the camper, add a battery separator, and then tie back into the main line of the pigtail. All current from the house...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Moving battery location for 2005 Eagle

    I recently purchased a 2005 Eagle. The previous owner had never hooked up an auxiliary battery inside the camper, they just pulled directly from the truck battery. So, I'd like some advice on getting an aux battery hooked up. 1) Any recommendations for RV-specific batteries? I don't have any...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Experience With Mazama Open Range A/T Tires?

    I was just reading a thread that linked me to Top 9 All-Terrain Tires For Truck Camper Rigs. That got me curious about the tires I just bought (this week), the Les Schwab Open Range A/T and found this thread. Only having them a week, I can't give you much a report other than to say they look...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Optimal location for roof rack cross bars

    I've recently purchased a 2005 FWC Eagle (2-piece roof) and would like to add a roof rack to carry paddleboards, canoe, etc. What is the optimal front-to-back location to position the roof rack cross-bars? One consideration I have is loading my canoe (~70lbs). I thought I might be able to add...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Sliding window

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Sliding window

    Oh no! I was just at an RV shop getting some sealant work done and while were looking at the door he asked if the window had ever slid down (like what you show). The RV guy mentioned that if the window had slid, the frame probably has "tabs" that hold the window in place, and that based on...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Can you Use Hitch Power (4 pin or 7) to connect FWC for charging?

    I can't speak to your setup, but I have a 2003 Tundra that I could charge the batteries using a 7-pin connector as we drove. I just had a local RV shop set up extend the wiring and change it from a 4-pin (original) to a 7-pin. Even at that age, the trailer charge was isolated from the main...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Yakima Swingdaddy Hitch Mounted Bike Rack

    Could you post a picture of the "double cone nuts" and describe your setup? I have a similar swing bike rack that bounces all over the place and would love to tighten it up. I was even thinking of getting rid of it and trying anew, so you might save me a bunch of $$. Thanks.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Used Camper Alert Thread

    I wanted to save some trouble for anyone who might see this FWC ad (Helena, MT) in the future. It is badly misrepresented. I looked at it this weekend and it has never been titled, was clearly in an accident, and is actually a 2011 (I contacted FWC with its serial number). It has significant...
