    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Eagle Dolly FS

    Free to whoever picks it up. If it doesn't go, I'll break it apart and build something else with the scrap I reckon.

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West 2003 FWC Eagle FS

    Currently have two parties interested so I am considering it sold pending funds and pickup. I just ordered a new water tank from Terry yesterday as I realized the drain valve was cracked.

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Wheeler Geologic Area, CO

    Funny, I was just there on Tuesday as well. Except we rode in on dirt bikes from the South Fork area, then headed over to Groundhog Park on some sweet singletrack and two track. Must say we were hoping to get closer since we had full moto gear on and hiking in those plastic boots is a chore...

    Still no real luck on wiring. Did narrow it down to the brown power wire. When that is hooked up and the light switch switched on, get power to everything metal. When the switch is off it's fine. This only happened after I snipped the wires going to the co2 and LP monitors. Have the faces off...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Buying New Tires

    I also need new tires soon. I've been running BFG AT's for years but ready for something new. Does anyone make a D rated tire in a 31/10.5/15 size? All I see are C rated. Or is that fine for my Tacoma/Eagle combo?

    Still have this collecting dust. If you feel bad about taking a free door I'll also take beer in exchange. :D

    More fun times... Turns out I get power to the entire camper frame/ground wire if I have the red or brown 12 ga wire hooked up to the converter (but not the blue 10 ga wire?). Looking like there is a short somewhere or a power wire hooked up where it should be a ground. Time to start searching...

    It seems normal to me that you would need to complete the circuit and ground to the battery. Well I was under the impression that that's what the black wire from the converter to the negative on the battery is for? To ground the 12 volt accessories?

    Well I caught dumb mistake #1. Didn't put the fuse in for the power from the battery in the converter (Doh!). So now the converter works and I have power coming out of it and to the fuses, but still must be a lingering ground issue somewhere as I have power to the switches, but only if I ground...

    It seems that you have the black FWC - ground wire attached to the white - ground wiring for the converter. And I think you have the white FWC + positive wire hooked to the red + positive power converter wire. (although I can't tell because the white paper label is in the way ??) STRANGE ...

    Some pics as promised. Here's the new WFCO converter. I wired this the same as the old converter. I don't have a wiring diagram for the wires in the camper so I assume it's correct? The vertical left ground bar is the chassis ground, horizontal ground bar being the neutral. Battery setup...

    This might sound silly, but does your camper have a small "mystery switch" on the front of the kitchen cabinets ? (see picture attached) If it does, that switch needs to be "ON" beofre the interior lights will work. Do you have the "White" camper wire hooked up to the + positive terminal on...

    Well an update... Still no working electrical. Put a WFCO converter in, still no good on shore power. Even with breakers off it still trips the GFCI instantly. Also tried hooking up the camper wires to my aux battery, nothing works. On the plus side, the Blue Sea ACR I wired in works like a...

    Well I got lucky in that FWC was coming out here for the Overland Expo, so I saved on shipping by picking it up yesterday. I'll get some measurements when I get home.

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Pay it Forward (Free FWC Door)

    Just replaced my non screen door with a screen door today so the old door is free to whomever picks it up. Previous owner put some caulking around the window and I'm still not convinced that it doesn't leak. But might be of use to someone. Off of a 2003 Eagle. I can bring it out to the Expo...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Bike Rack

    I have one of the Thule T2 hitch racks that holds the wheels instead of the frame. My bike has a swoopy hydroformed top tube and a 20mm axle so the T2 works awesome for it and most of the other bikes I carry. I just tried it out with my new Eagle and even with the camper on I can still load my...

    Different wires, unrelated. Wire from the truck directly to the battery, nothing to do with the convertor. Wire directly from the convertor to the battery if you have one. Same with solar, etc. wire directly to the battery. So if you were connected to the truck, solar, and convertor you'd...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Scary wiring...

    Thanks Stan! I did a little digging around and saw that a lot of other people were replacing them with the WFCO 8735 so I will probably do that at some point. But I don't need shore power really. Do you have any wiring diagrams of the camper wiring? I'm still a little unsure of how to wire in...
