    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Struts & EMT lifter mechanism or Linear Actuators

    One of the benefits of sewing up new sideliner/canvas is that you can mount the external struts before attaching the lower half of the sideliner. I've been off playing for a couple months and am about ready to install the sideliner - the top, and then the struts, and then the bottom of the...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Got CPAP? Battery Info Here

    I'm approaching this from a slightly different perspective. I have a Resmed s9 cpap machine. As you can see from the following graphic, machine use, humidifier use, and heated tube use about 5 to 7 amps an hour. My solution is 490 watts of solar on a frame that tilts, 200 amp hour in...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Maxx Fans Installed

    I'll be installing fans in the next couple days. The maxxaire fan I got says that if your roof is less than 2" thick, you need to put wood no the inside part of the ceiling to mount the internal plastic piece. I take it you didn't run into this problem? Thanks... Jeff

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West DIY Camper Build From Scratch

    A previous owner had replaced the lift panels with a doubled sheet of 80s type interior paneling. There was no middle hinge. It lay flat on the bed and lay flat above the door. You had to lift the roof and the panel. It wasn't a "lift" panel. He had not installed anything to slide the panel...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West How well were they made?

    I drove from Laramie to a tiny town in east-central AZ to purchase my 80s era Keystone. $500. Communication was through text. The guy took good pictures. That said, the sideliner was shot, it turns out a previous owner had narrowed the floorpack by cutting out the aluminum frame and using...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West 80s Keystone - Insulation & Wiring before headliner install

    So two friends volunteered to come over andhelp me install the headliner today. It was 41 degrees and breezy at 1PM. The garage felt colder. I was afraid that the temperature would slow the curing process of the spray glue so I put an infrared heater under the roof for a couple hours. I...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West 80s Keystone - Insulation & Wiring before headliner install

    I finished adding wiring and insulation to the roof of the camper. The prep work took hours. I decided to peel back the roof edge to add the headliner and then the arctic pack strip and sideliner. As you can see from the pictures, it's really rough. I did my best not to destroy the thin...
