Ask yourself what you plan to do with your camper. You can get away with a four cylinder but, your not going to have any performance and dont even consider serious off roading. If you have a choice, get the six banger so you have options on where you want to go. I have a four banger Ford...

Thanks Scott, I felt that I needed to contribute and give back. I got so much useful information on this fourm. My next project is removing the back wings and replacing the siding on the front and back. Thats what happens when you get a fixer upper. How do you like your new rig?

I finnished my repair of the botched job the previous owner did trying to patch up the corners that a critter chewed through. He used clear vinyl and spray painted it to match the color. The prep work of cleaning the liner took about 4 hours of scubbing. The glue worked excellent and I am...

removed the patches that were spray painted by previous owner.

Too much free info on the web. I have found several free trail sites and also I buy used books on Amazon. Another good source is National geographic TOPO software, it is not cheap, but I found used copies and the updates are free. I would never pay for free info. Are you looking for...

Like Jimmy says, you need to figure out your power requirements. Here is a great post with a solar calculator. solar spreadsheet I modified it after I downloaded it to match my equipment. You dont half to be an electrical expert, but you need to understand how to calculate power consumption...

Ditto on what skipin said. The craigslist search engine is the only way to go. We used it every day for about 4 months and had to travel quickly with cash in hand. I got a Ranger II that was in poor shape, but good bones. I removed the wings where I bought it and it only took about 30 min...

Ok, I found it. My link I will post pics of repair as soon as I am finnished.

Thanks, I looked up Westmarine online and they have it for around $70. I will shop around, I remeber Marty saything that it should be about $40 or so. Cheaper than replacement!

I am finally tackiling the repair of my vinyl and I couldnt recall what the name of the two part adhesive that is used to apply the vinyl patches. Marty sent the material but for the life of me cannot recall what you use. Does anyone know what would be the best adhesive for the job? Thanks-...

Nice setup, I like the way the jacks are mounted on the rear. What year is it? -joel

Hey Dave, I just ran into the same problem regarding propane use, my Zodi and mr heater use them. I have the orignal propane tank that came with my camper, but I have been using the small one pound cylinders. I plan on refilling the small tanks via the large one, and just have the original...

Welcome, it is worth the wait. I have yet to drive all the way to Alaska yet, but that would be the ultimate journey. These campers are really the best thing out there. -Skeeter

Pre 05' tacoma. I have a 97' Ranger II which is just a short Ranger, they call them Eagle models now.

I was looking into getting a double cab toyota and was concerned about the handling also with a Ranger II in the back. Does anyone have this set up, and how does it handle? Thanks-
