    Forest River A213HW water tank drain modification

    I've been wanting to replaced the water tank drain valve for a long time. It never seem to work well and we often had a super small drip from it. I also wanted to make it a little more accessible. One of the pictures shows the basics of the setup laid out on our sidewalk. It's a very tight...

    Awning support arm replacement/modification

    Okay hopefully I’m not posting too much at once. Just excited to get everything working on my TT and had some questions. I bought my TT with the knowledge that the awning had recently been damaged due to wind. I had looked it over and the only thing I’ve found to be damaged is the top support...

    Modification ???

    This may be standard but I have never seen it before. Another camper near us has a screen on a storage door and a generator inside. I think it would be noisy but I guess it would be safe. Just thought I’d share Incase it could give an idea to someone else.

    Bed Room Slide Modification

    Own a 2006 Wildcat 5th Wheel. Old 30RLBS. The Bedroom slides out on two carpet pads and I would like to add rollers under the slide to make it roll out smoother. Has anybody attempted this or do they just keep replacing the carpet pad when it wears out. Thank you for any help. :trink39:

    My Wife and I just purchased a new to us FR Wildcat, fifth wheel. The rear portion of the trailer is the MBedroom, this is enclosed by a wall that has a small framed window and glass panel door. This closes off the rest of the living space for privacy. My question is, is this wall structural...

    Sewer Hose Storage Modification

    Just wanted to share with you all a modification that I am really happy with. I added two sewar hose carriers under the RV and above the propane tank. The mod required a couple pieces of flat iron and took me a little over an hour to complete. Two 15' hoses takes up quite a bit a precious...

    We are about to take the Pod for its second test drive. This one will be 2560 miles long. Instead of the bed, we would like to recline and relax in the dinette area when not eating or playing board games. Has anyone made any mods that would include comfort and kicking your feet up? It converts...

    hitch modification

    Good morning. I have recently bought a 2020 Rockwood 2881S fifth wheel camper with a rear kitchen. I am pulling it with a 2022 GMC 2500 HD AT4 truck. I am considering switching the pin box (Lippert Turning Point) to a Gen-y goose ball hitch. I am considering this because of the jarring that I am...

    Water heater modification.

    Howdy all. Well, my waterheater tank finally rusted through, and I'm tired of the 3-4 minute shower time. This is my fulltime home, (which I don;t recommend, lol). My idea is to build and weld an outdoor steel platform off the rear bumper, and make an enclosure for a 39-40 gallon 120v unit, to...

    Toilet Modifications to 2205S

    The Rockwood Mini Lite 2205S is the perfect camper for my wife and I except... The toilet does not have enough room around it to comfortably "do my business". Is there a modification that can be done to turn it or move it a bit? I saw a guy take out the shower door to provide some room, but...

    Kitchen bar seating area modification

    Our Rockwood Signature 8263MBR has a front kitchen: just inside the door, to the right, is a seating area (for 2 bar stools) that we never use, and thought we might convert that area to some form of storage, either shelves or cubbyholes. What concerns me is how that structure is to be mounted...

    Door and Fridge details

    Hi all, we're getting our new 17B in April and have been feverishly browsing this forum getting up to speed on Escape life. I've decided a compressor fridge is the way, and so we'll be deleting the included fridge and installing something after market. I've seen at least one person who's put a...

    Permanent Mount Drop Leaf Table for Tenessee Rambler

    We opted for Escape not to mount our dinette table because we wanted something smaller and less in the way. We wanted to use our dinette mostly as a lounge without the table. We also have no need to use it for a bed. We came up with a design for a permanent mount drop leaf table that serves as a...
