I had the same thing happen on my Ram 1500. I had the install done at an authorized FWC dealer / installer and was a little disappointed when I noticed that the tie down was installed in the sheet metal rather than the cross member. I'm sure the sheet metal is "almost" good enough in most cases...

Thanks Jim. It seemed like a lot of work at the time (and I was wondering whether I should have just gone with a built out model) but after living in it for the past two months all of the custom mods really made it feel like "our" home. So far the 100W panel is keeping us topped up quite...

sold!

Thanks for the input. I didn't know that the tub was stapled to the frame...that is good to know (and hard to imagine). When I take the camper off I do lower it onto two mini / foldable sawhorses and only have a bit of weight, for stability, on the camper legs. It would be a bit of shock to...

Thanks, the water tank is just to the right of the ARB cooler. The pump and the accumulator are under the cabinets. I actually had to cut a hole in the bottom of one of the cabinets to just squeak the pump in.

Sorry, it does not as I have used the original balls to mount the new struts.

Thanks. It evolves on every trip. I usually bring a screw gun and cordless saw for inspired moments!

I'd love to, but we often park (lift off) our camper and lower it to near the ground (supported) when we are in one spot for more than 3-4 days so we can zip around unburdened. Our most aggressive off-roading (where I would be more worried about the legs) in usually without the camper.

Hi All, Not sure if this should be in a new topic, but I thought I would post here in the meantime. I bought a Hawk Shell last year and made some mods and am quite happy with the result. What I have done: -Removed all extra panels and carpet coverings. I think I pulled out about 100 pounds...

Hi All, I recently replaced my 30lbs roof lifting struts with 40lbs struts to make up for a solar panel I installed. Nothing is wrong with them, and they are less than one year old. I'd be happy to part with all four for $40, plus shipping. I am in Tucson until the 6th in case there is...

I like what you've done! I truly believe raising the floor or lower the couch is the way to a more comfortable couch / chair.

Thanks! How do I find your build site?

I agree about the number of drawers. We're actually considering making some of the smaller ones into cubbies. the bed comes out to about an inch away from the edge of the sink, so it shouldn't be a problem but I'll double check the dimensions because it would be unfortunate to not be able to...

Hi All, I recently purchased a Hawk Shell (with stove and furnace). Having had a different Pop-Up camper previously, I have a good idea of how I want to build the Hawk out. Having said that, I am a little worried about the mods I need to do working around the aluminum frame. So, a few...
