Couple 2x's in place.

This shows the 1x that the plywood base rests on.

Good, they're working. Rear vent blocked off:

Got a fair amount of work done. Used 2" pink foam board insulation to block off the roof and wall venting. I sealed it down with a bead of silicone sealant. The plywood that the fridge sits on was only held up by a piece of 1x across the front and back. I decided that wasn't probably as strong...

Those are some weird shadows on the carpet. It's not stained, believe me, MrsBob86ZZ4 would never stand for that.

Let's see if I can get a picture to work. This is how they covered the water pipes inside my coach.

Don't forget, there is no law that says you must back in. I sometimes pull in forward if that works better. I always have enough cable to hook up to either side. I ask the camp attendant if it's okay, just to be polite. Never had a one say I can't. Just make sure you don't line the side door up...

I pull an enclosed trailer with a car and toys. All the points bushpilot made are true. I would like to be able to flat tow a toad once in awhile but don't want to spend the money for the equipment, and I don't think I have a car that can be flat towed. One nice thing about the enclosed...

Some of my water supply lines appear to run straight down through the floor. But in fact they run through the bottom board of the cabinet and then make an elbow before going through the floor. I think.

I think I've seen builders run the water lines along the floor/wall junction. Then they use a piece of wood carpeted placed at about a 45 degree angle over it to cover them. I'll try to get a picture of it on mine next time I'm visiting my storage place.

I don't think any rv's ever have 240v. What do you need to power with 240 volt?

Cool, going to convert to weed burner exhaust so you can bring the box closer to the cab?

Mine is vented out the roof. I never had problems keeping food cold in hot camping. I'm switching for the various pros listed above. My biggest is that I'm worried about the ammonia leaking and catching fire. I am a little worried about how long I'll be able to run it on my two house batteries...

Oh boy, another build. Love it. Keep the pictures coming! Thanks.

I'm planning to leave the vent covers in place as original. Just need to insulate inside of them. I'm a little concerned about that roof vent. There is plywood up there from the roof. Thinking about maybe cutting a piece of plastic to seal off the vent up there under the roof vent. Then putting...

Let's see if I can get some pictures to work here.

Sorry Don, when I took the Norcold out I put an add on craigslist and had about 5 replies in a few hours. I gave it to the first guy. He's going to put it in a fish house (we fish on frozen lakes up here in MN you know. After pulling out the Norcold I removed the copper gas line that ran down...

So my rig is an '03 and I'm pretty sure the Norcold 841 propane is original. I'm figuring it's not going to last much longer. I'm also kind of afraid of fire when it does fail. I decided to switch over to a residential (120 volt) fridge. I bought a Frigidaire FFTR1222QB. It's almost the same...

Yes, it's a extremely well built deck/body. I've seen it. No way you could replicate it for anywhere near that amount. That price is just for the truck, I think. I don't see that the Jeep and the 5ver come with it.

Hey, I just ran across this truck on racingjunk: 2003 International HD Jeep Hauler & 5th Wheel Tow Vehicl for Sale in NASHVILLE, TN | RacingJunk Classifieds I know the owner, very great stand-up guy. This truck is extremely well built. I'm sure he's got a bunch of pictures he could send you...

Maybe one of the bigger builders would give you some advice. Like Showhauler or Renegade, or Hawk, or Haulmark?

I'm sorry I don't have any pictures from the cab side. The floor of the cab is slightly higher than the floor of my living quarters. I'm guessing the builder wanted to leave metal around the opening for structural reasons? Rather than cutting out the entire back panel of the cab you know. My...

My truck is an '02 FL112. It's pretty similar to the FL70 I think. Here's the cutout on mine:

Are you sure you need to move the axle back? Lots of the HDT crowd (Heavy Duty Truck, the guys that use hdt's to pull their 5th wheel campers) have their 5th wheel hitches mounted well back from the rear axle. They say they like it better that way. Just wondering why you would need to move your...
