    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West House battery and started battery with solar confusion

    I have been led to believe that if charging a house and starting battery from th alternator they should be the same type volatage brand date of manufacture etc. if its just "in parallel" lie a two batt starting system that also you use for the house. If its a true aux house battery with its own...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Bleeding the hydraulic system

    Still having issues, but scored another whole hydraulic assembly. found a similar pump with a "male" shaft and can use my power drill to raise the Alaskan. The back goes up far more slowly than the front. I actually have to turn the front control valve all the way off to raise the front. I could...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Changing Hydraulic Fluid

    After talking to Brian at Alaskan sounds like even my in older system air in the lines is very unlikely to be part of my issue. The system is indeed open and self purging. H tells me that even when they build a new one, the top goes up without having to fill the rams. I thought I was dealing...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Changing Hydraulic Fluid

    I too am "having trouble getting it up" since having reinstalled my older (late 1980's) electric hydraulic pump by Oildyne in my Alaskan. Unfortunately (or fortunately depending on how you cut it) I mis-diagnosed the issue. My switch and maybe some other electrical fried. I didn't figure this...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Has anyone shortened their lower door to open all the way?

    OKAY back to the original question. I too, would like to see such a modification. The door setup is a hassle, I'm sure there are good design reasons for it. However, before I got my Alaskan, I assumed you raised it and the two doors somehow interconnected and you had a nice, albeit narrow...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West 1969 Alaskan Camper Owners Manual

    Thanks. Are there any later year manuals, electrical schematics? The one that came in my 1990 was equally old school but with less detailed info. I was trying to figure out my wiring. It looks like the four prong plug input for DC to the camper from the truck from 1969 MAY be the same for mine...

    well the decision is made, I got new tires for my 1990 k2500 4x4 w/1989 Fourwheel pop up camper. I replaced my BFG A/T s at 245/75/16 with Big O Bigfoots, hope I made the right decision, and figure I'll put my two cents in info as I drive the new ones. I was not "sold" the bigfoots,I did not...
