    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Fit An Old Fwc To A Newer Truck

    I've done it 2x on my keystone. Once to make it fit my 04 chev and the 2nd time to make it fit my 08 chev. It is a lot of work and yes you have to do work on the aluminum. Be prepared to have it tore down for awhile. If the back has the wings on it you just have to do plywood work there, the...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Four Wheel Drive "Failure"

    Haven't had to deal with the new transfer cases yet but it does indeed sound like the encoder motor sensor. They had issues with them in the previous model including the 3/4 ton also. The fix on the older ones was to simply pull the 4 wheel drive fuse and shut the truck off. Pull key, wait...

    You should have a bundle of wires between the cab and box tied up to the frame. You can have an rv plug installed into your box and use the aux circuit already available with out having to run any wires.

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Semi-permanent Catalytic Heater Install

    What size hose did you use and what is the brand of the quick connectors? I am getting close to being finished with my camper rebuild and am thinking about doing the same thing you have done with the LB on an coleman stove rather than installing or buying a full cookstove. I have a 3 burner...

    Would you gain much more room with the wedgewood? Are the burners bigger on the wedgewood? Your flame problem could be a bad regulator!

    The hot water heater tank is aluminum. Open the cover on the outside and see if the drain plug is in. If the tank is cracked you could have it welded.

    I would try.... (Use at your own risk) Cut 4 - 2x4 and prop the lid half way up. Put a strap over the front and one over the rear to hold the lid down on your props. Put a 2x4 on edge from the left side to the right side inside the camper up against the ceiling. Use another 2x4 and a jack...

    Nice truck and camper. I have the same truck except mine is a chev and is greystone instead of black (wish I would have stayed with black). How did they mount it to your truck? Did you bolt it through the bed? I am getting close to having mine completed and need to decide how I am going to...

    If you have the HD you should have a bundle of wires under the box in the front drivers side corner. This is for the 5th wheel - gooseneck trailer hookup. You could bring it into any trailer shop and they can install a rv plug on the wires. Wire your battery and camper to the rv plug and you...

    Look at the bright side - had your system not tied the 2 batteries together, you may not have made your destination.:thumb: Looking through some of your other posts I found that you are using just a standard isolator and not one that senses voltage. I would guess that you have the switch wire...

    Looks a lot like the project that has homesteaded in my garage:D Corner jacks, I would use @ 1.5" wide and go around both sides for all corners. I would also weld a piece on the bottom so the only support isnt in the bolts/screws. Since I was working on mine and had the interior all tore...
