    A-frame Dinette bed comfort

    We bought an A-124 where the only bed is the dinette folded down. After a few days I really felt the plywood through the cushion. We bought a memory foam topper (1.5 in) and then an air mattress (9.5 in). The air mattress eliminated the problem with feeling the plywood but the two of us...

    A-Frame cargo carrier

    Does anyone have this product on their Trailer? I was wondering how well it works and whether it would work on a Salem cruise lite model. This would help me with my spare tire and putting a small storage box. Unless there is alternative and cheaper version somewhere else, please let me know...

    No Aframe for me for a while

    Spent the last 1 1/2 weeks in hospital. Had a small heart attack while working on the camper...not campers fault. They did a heart cath and said one main artery was 100% clogged and two branched arteries had to be cleaned out. Then they shipped me to St Lukes in HOuston where they did a...

    stabilizers for Rockwood/Flagstaff A Frames

    I will be taking delivery of a new Flagstaff T12RB soon. My previous camper was the 176ED (great little camper). The only real potential issue are the scissor style stabilizers and how far they hang down. BAL and Camco make cross-frame lowering arm type stabilizers that will retract much closer...

    Looking for an A frame camper

    I have been doing some research into campers and I am of the mindset that I think an A frame fits my needs the best in terms of features vs comfort. Just for some background information. I go camping 2-3 times a summer. Currently we go car camping. One of the trips is generally a Saturday to...

    Quilts for your Aframe

    Things didn't go well with having the 7 pin harness and brake controller hooked up yesterday...they had the wrong part or something so have to go back today. Been reading everybody's posts and have enjoyed every one of them. Then got to thinking our new aframe will need a new quilt. My...

    Can't wait to use my A-frame

    Just bought a 2012 T12DDST. Got lots of ????s and this looks like it is going to be a great place to find answers. Too cold here to use it yet but have a lot to learn before we hit the road.

    Indoor Water Use

    I bought my camper new earlier this year and have not touched the water system. I find it unnecessary and too much of a hassle to use water in the camper. Will it hurt anything (anti-freeze still in tank) to leave it the way it came or should I empty the anti-freeze and refill or even just...

    A Frame Campers and Wind Dangers

    Would anyone like to have an open discussion about wind dangers and the AFrame camper? Maybe share your experience and hopefully educate new owners to the dangers of wind and small campers. I've seen some of the brief discussions posted a while back but since then many new owners have come on...

    Built-in A-Frame Mounting Provision ?

    Reading through the feature list for Forest River and I see: Built-in A-Frame Mounting Provision for Equalizer Hitch Bar Installation. Since I'm in the process of selecting a hitch I'm a bit puzzled...I frankly don't see any form of readiness on our T12RBST trailer tongue at all. What am I...

    Do you cover your A-Frame? If so, need recs?

    This will be my second winter with the A122. Never got around to covering it last winter, here in the Chicago area. I was wondering if others cover their camper. If so, what cover do you recommend? Any links will be appreciated since I will buy it online. As an aside, just got back from a...

    Tlp for aframe Dometric screenroom

    A great way to hold down the sides of the screenroom is to use swimming pool cover tubes. They don't take up a lot of room to store & can be filled with water when you need them. They cost less than $5 at pool city

    Tips A Frame Campers

    Though we need a thread for tips that we know are relevant to the A Frame and not sure about the bigger camper. I ran into something that I thought I would pass on to others. The lug nut on the nice 13" aluminum wheels take a 13/16 THINNER walled socket, the lug wrench that we all carry is too...

    New standard Black and Tan Exteriors instead of White for Aframes

    Wish I had this exterior color scheme on my 2014 Rockwood. Looks like Forest River finally replaced the boring white exterior with a new Black and Tan Exterior. Looks way better. Discovered this out by accident when looking at photos of the A122BH online. 2014 Forest River Rockwood Hardside...

It's set up in our driveway and we are getting familiar with the workings of all the systems. We've found that there are numerous accessories and do-dads that we'll be needing...
