  1. I used FRP paneling for the walls, you can get it at Home Depot, the shower pan was already there I just resealed around the bottom, sorry for the late reply I haven't logged on in a while. Liquid Nails construction adhesive to stick it to the walls.
  2. TIRES https://www.amazon.com/Hankook-Vantra-RA18-185R14-102R/dp/B01G2BX64W/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1481214271&sr=8-1&keywords=185r14+hankook
  3. damn thats super long! mine just exits behind the rear wheels
  4. After I bought mine I brought it back to CO and had to get emissions tested and it failed horribly for HC and CO, Also I was getting like 10mpg. No check engine light but after some doing some diagnostics I found my o2 sensor was stuck lean causing the engine to run super rich. Replaced with a new Denso unit and passed emissions with flying colors. Fuel mileage went up as well. With that said if yours is running good i'd leave it, you could verify proper operation of the sensor with a volt meter if you have one. With pre OBD2 engine management you can't rely on the check engine light for anything.
  5. Very cool... The previous owner added an aftermarket tach on mine and I couldn't imagine not having one.
  6. oof... maybe i'll just drive mine until it caves in, lol. planning on staying in dry/warm climates anyway
  7. That's awesome... Only thing that bugs me about my Warrior is the roof sags about a half inch in the middle from the A/C, not too bad yet... Would love to get the roof redone maybe next year. How much does that run?
  8. Hotchkiss Colorado, making final preparations for Mexico.
  9. Just go H4 conversion Hella units.
  10. Nice... Why not top mount them though to get a little more clearance?
  11. All of this. Forget KBB when it comes to toyota rv's
  12. I went with these panels http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-150-Watt-12-Volt-Battery-Charger-Solar-Panel-Off-Grid-RV-Boat-300-watt-total-/271885508220?hash=item3f4da39e7c:g:AtcAAOSwv0tVdJAX&afsrc=1&rmvSB=true probably about $1200 invested total including two new batteries, also I went with a higher end charge controller/monitor combo for extra reliability/efficiency. Personally I don't like the idea of mobile panels, seems like a huge PITA to me to deal with that, although I do see the advantages. I just roof mounted mine as best as I could, there isn't much space up there so you kinda just have to deal with it, I hacked off my tv antenna so I could fit the front panel on. The panels are not super efficient due to shading from roof vents/AC unit at certain points and flat mounted, but I am always able to stay charged for my needs regardless (charging laptop/phones, coffee grinder, etc) so that's why I'm happy with it. So here's the curveball, currently I'm working a job during the day so the RV is usually parked in a spot with as much sun as I can get it in, so I'm not in it during the day, I know in the summer it did get hot... I'll be doing some traveling soon in it but the plan is to be out doing stuff during the day and not inside the camper, we'll see. I am still learning and adapting with everything as well Also I converted all the interior bulbs to LED, saves quite a bit of power usage.
