    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Gasket material used by FWC

    Understood. In this case, I think that I just need to wrap the flange of the fitting in the tape and screw it down. This is for a stainless fresh water fill on the outside of the camper.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Gasket material used by FWC

    Hey folks, What does FWC use to make those foam/gel gaskets around the exterior fittings? I had to remove my locking SS water fill as the lock was broken. The gasket material seems to be made from a foam/gel that I cannot identify. Any idea? -Pete

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Couple things I noticed at 5 degrees F.

    Just got back from a 4 day trip to Mt. Bachelor and ran the heat at 60-65 the whole time.......Webasto Diesel heater. Burned a wopping 1.5 gallons of fuel. Those heaters are absolutely insane. In addition, way less condensation than a propane heater.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Lithium advantage for cold weather.

    I use my Hawk flatbed as a winter ski chalet and I currently run 2 6v AGM's and I am seriously thinking of switching to Lithium. I am thinking that if I don't have solar to charge my system, a Li 100ah will come up to full charge quickly and will last longer than my AGMs. I run a Webasto...

    Not to jump on this bandwagon but......Can I just drop Battleborns into my 2017 Hawk Flatbed to replace the AGMs? I thought I would need a new solar controller and charging setup? -Pete

    Hi Folks, I have a 2017 Hawk flatbed (campercamper's old rig). I was wondering what i should be doing when we get big dumps like we do in Tahoe. I know that I can't pop the top with too much snow or lower with too much snow and I know that the top is supposed to support 1000 lbs of snow when...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Cooper AT3 LT vs XLTs can't run the XLT's unless I go bigger.

    Ok folks....last tire question for a while....I am running 275 65 18's on my 2015 Tundra with a Hawk flatbed. I need winter tires. I love the Coopers but if I want to stay on my original size tires, I need to go LT instead of XLT. I can run the XLT's in 275 70 but I don't want to get any...

    Folks....the Cooper AT3 XLT is not snowflake rated. I do travel to Canada in the winter (not this winter) and the snowflake rating is a must. Anyone running the E rated non XLT Coopers? Thanks
