1987 Toyota Sunrader Ac Unit Condensation Drainage
Skydancer2992 replied to chaejohn's topic in General Discussion
Mine just runs off the roof. 91 Warrior. -
The valve job involves swapping shims underneath the cam shafts. If the cam shafts are off, much easier to do. To get the cam shafts off, you have to remove the timing belt. If your engine is making good power, then valve adjustment is not needed. If your power is declining, do a compression test to see if a valve is not closing. Then do the valve job.

A Xantrex inverter/charger would automatically switch between batteries and shore power. http://www.xantrex.com/power-products/inverter-chargers/overview.aspx Pricey but sometimes show up on ebay or marine salvage places.

If you are short on time, change the shock only. Maybe your bushings were changed not long ago by the previous owner. Mine looked like Kgibson's pictures, completely worn through the rubber so that metal was contacting metal. Before the replacement, the rubber looked like toothpaste being squeezed out of the shackle bolts.

Any Interest In A Fall (Sept-Oct) 2015 Midwest Toy In?
Skydancer2992 replied to bufbooth's topic in Rallies & Toy Ins
Indiana would be my choice. Ideas: Some of the RV manufacturers give factory tours: http://rv-roadtrips.thefuntimesguide.com/2012/03/rv_factory_tours.php Big RV Show in Elkhart, IA in August: http://rvshows.org/MidwestRVSuperShow.aspx I met Bob and Cheryl at a past gathering - Great folks - Actually, everyone at Toyota rallies have been good people. -
Hardware stores sell a brass double nipple that will allow you to splice two lengths of hose together.

My 96 Toyota 4Runner has both driver and passenger side airbags.

Yes, you can just cut it and plug it. Six years ago, the piece between the return tank nipple and T for the generator began leaking on my 91 Warrior- looked like a rodent had nibbled on it. I drove into Autozone, climbed under the camper and pulled out that piece. Autozone was out of stock in that fuel line. They had fuel injection hose that was stronger (and more expensive). Size was either 5/16 or 1/4.

I already had the camper jacked up while doing my Prothane bushings on the springs. The airbags were cut in half using tinsnips. The leaf springs were already drooping down to give me clearance to install the coil springs. Inserted the old airbag halfs on either side of the coil spring and the job was complete. About five minutes work per side. I used these: http://www.amazon.com/Superior-12-1500-Design-Helper-Capacity/dp/B00029K1XK

I have a 91 Warrior (90 Toyota Chassis). My bushings were all the same size but the set recommended by Prothane web site came with two larger bushings. I called Prothane and they immediately sent two more of the smaller bushings, no charge, to complete my job. I believe the set recommended by Kgibson4 will work for the newer Toyhomes as well. If not, Prothane will stand behind their product.

91' Winnie Warrior Over-Cab Water Damage Repair
Skydancer2992 replied to Mrlope's topic in General Discussion
I built a fuselage for a kitplane out of half inch honeycomb aluminum, a BD-17. I'm buying some scraps out of a place in St. Louis, about $50 for a 2' X 4' panel. Also considering using some material to reinforce the roof around the AC unit.- 6 replies

Nice job. I'm considering the use of honeycomb aluminum panels for a future rebuild project. Normally used for aircraft floors, the stuff is very light.- 6 replies

Surge Protector's - Pricing All Over The Place
Skydancer2992 replied to gr8white's topic in General Discussion
Low voltage has been the main issue I've encountered in RV campgrounds, usually during hot or cold weather and many occupants. The AC/heat will draw increased current and the breaker will trip. Since I started using an autoformer, no problems. http://www.pplmotorhomes.com/parts/rv-power-cords/30-amp-autoformer.htm
