pulled out all the old tile & carpet & bought on Craigslist some laminate flooring
$30 for over 50sqft...(any one want some laminate in San Diego come get it)
the orig. carpet was just ugly.
found a good dried water stain near front might of been from water tank? will have to fill up water tank and check for leaks...
look at all the table floor mounts I have now..
I installed the middle one all the others where cover up in 2 layers of carpet...
I just laid it down to see what it looks like will install this week sometime.. -
your going to want 170* view camera you will see a lot more
I bought one at frys for $40 works great
stay away from Wi-Fi cams reviews are bad on most of them.
also get a cam that is day night cam....

just like Fred say's
your going to want the one that is in better condition
being how old these RV are your going to have to do some work..
also look at the lay out of RV you might like one better
the v6 did have a head gasket recall you could ask owner if work was done/check vin#

maybe a FAKIE?????

If you cant find a replacement you could try a junk yard

Yep possibly normal. It depends on the floor. My Escaper had the same thing from the factory
normal in my dolphon 1987
my 1987 mini cruiser now has a "stock" table mount

When I 1st installed the flush floor base for table I drilled through the 1/8 floor & foam bottom I stopped when I got to second 1/8 plywood under foam the base didn't sit flush I used the carpet so it fit better just was not stable enough.
so I drilled through bottom 1/8 floor board and yup drilled all the way through couch
Im glad the gas tank was not flush with couch frame could of been real bad..
going to seal with 3M5200..
is this a normal install when using a flush mount base?

took out the floor tiles in walkway bathroom today
I thought the floor was going to be in bad shape all the tile where coming unglued and felt mushy.. it was just the tiles with sand dirt under them don't think was a very good floor install
the 1/8 wood is solid and in good shape..
not bad when I bought rv everything leaked toilet shower kitchen sink
so im glad this will be easy fix even have a 1/2 box of the old floor tile left...

I would think rv manufacture 600lb is talking about supply weight not counting people..
Yes your going to pack light and find a way to utilize all storage space you have
for better mpg drive at 55mph that's the sweet spot for these rigs
for a hitch that depends what you have in the rear for support if its just a bumper and no frame work going to rear axel then its not a good idea...bumper wont hold up.. If you got some good support then I would say get a 500lb carrier and keep it under loaded..
the v6 have had recalls on the head gasket use your vin and see if fixed if not fixed replace head gasket & do a valve job.. Might be a good thing to do no matter what your rig has the miles on it for the valve job
welcome and good traveling -
Glad you finally got out in your rv
looks like a nice place to camp

check out bag awning
search google and this site their easy to install and a lot cheaper then buying a box awning
the size is what you have room for..
-
I took these off last year when repair the cab-over & like it better with them off
plus on the right side wall my tv now takes up the room
one is smaller then the other one
should be able to fit in any queen size cab-over if need measurements let me know
so if you want to stop by house their free
if you want delivered just pay for what ever it takes to pack and ship(bubble wrap or box plus shipping)
I want to try to help someone on this forum out first before I give away here....

my 22re will go up the hills its just going to go slooooow
to me the 22r is a more reliable engine then the v6
22r is going to be easer to work on for sure..
v6 engines do have a recall on the head gasket..

to be honest I was a little intimidated at first was shocked how easy it wasNicely done. I think I need to do the same thing.

I already worked my shift when fire started lucky only 10 people in store...So glad you didn't get seriously hurt. That looks like it could have been bad. How did that lake get full. Even with the rain we have had up north here no reservoir is even close in Northern Cal.
Linda S
store will open Monday
the fire was in the Meat Dept where I work and needs to be remodeled & health dept. approved.

I'm glad the store did not burn down My store would of closed for good....plus I have a lot of vaca time to take the hit for not working..
their is a lot of water in the lake.. it is run by Helix water district .I don't think they would fill up lake and it does not get any run off
