    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Hawk solar upgrade

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Cerro Gordo

    Hi guys, I was wondering if any of you had taken a full size pick up / hawk camper combo up to Cerro Gordo. I've looked at some photos and videos and it seems like its pretty much a 2 wheel drive dirt road. There does look like there's an extremely narrow shelf area that might be a little...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Power Wagon for four wheel camper

    I'm running an 11 pw with Firestone air bags and daystar cradles. Gets the job done with a hawk on the back. If I go with an aluminess bumper I will be looking into a custom set of leaf Springs from http://www.atlassuspension.com/ Coguzzi... Nice truck!

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West House battery not charging while driving

    So, it turns out that the house battery was bad. I replaced it and all is working normally. I put the multi meter on the pig tail (comming from the battery) and got no voltage at all which made me think the smart battery selinoid was bad. I read the spec's and found that if the battery is...

    The standard black /red connector, is that the same as is commonly used on trailers or does it look the same but is actually different slightly in dimension? I have a portable panel that needs a different connection ( currently has a power pole connector from the factory)
