Thanks AtlantaCamper. Great summary of your experience. Eventually it seems we all have to deal with this issue. Iflyfishconmitoyamigos -

Excess Silicone removal I found plastic and razor blade scrapers not up to the task of removing excess, hardened silicone sealants. I decided to go with a harder blade and it works great.

I posted this on the discussion site by accident. I want to share my experience with installing new LED tail lights on my '87 Sunrader. I have attached files identifying parts and a template for the bezels, I don't know if you can still get them or not. I am very pleased with the outcome as now all the lights on the Sunrader are LED save for the headlights. sunrader_taillight.PDF Tail light replacement specs 11.docx TAIL LIGHT REPLACEMENT.pdf

I posted this project earlier before I understood there is a site here for projects. The floor in my '97 Sunrader was spongy so I set out to fix it. I found this very helpful video on youtube on how to use epoxy to repair spongy floors in an RV. The fix involves drilling holes in a grid pattern, injecting epoxy, filling holes with wooden dowels, sanding down dowels then covering the floor with stick on tiles. used this method with great success so wanted to share this with others.

Good one! Thanks Iflyfish

Looks good. Just replaced mine too. Can you list link to parts. Thanks Iflyfishconmiamigos

I replaced the original tail lights with LED lights on my 1987 Sunrader. I will attach images of the project including details on parts. There was a lot of surface prep needed and I found a great scraper for excess silicone seen in one of he pics. See "uploaded files" for parts list. I don't think bezels are any longer available so you may have to have some made for you. I got these on Ebay but don't think they are any longer available. I also have the old lights available is any one wants them. Tail light replacement specs 11.docx sunrader_taillight.PDF TAIL LIGHT REPLACEMENT.pdf

Currently replacing tail lights with LEDs. Will post pics when done. The project was put on hold and now active again. Should be done with the Barkeep/Zep project in a couple of weeks. I will update as that happens. Thanks for the interest. Iflyfishwithsorearms

I will visit a relative with a 30 amp plug in for their trailer, which they occupy. Is there a way that I can piggyback on their 30 amp plug? Some sort of plug in double outlet? I have been exploring but can't find what I have pictured i.e. a 30 amp Y connector. Don't know if it exists? Iflyfishclueless

I found the post: Posted June 12, 2017 I went online to find a way to reinforce/repair weak floor in my '87 Sunrader. I ran into this excellent YouTube site where the process is demonstrated. Essentially it involves drilling holes in the existing flooring, injecting an epoxy every 6", pounding dowels into the holes to compress epoxy, then cutting off dowels. This method worked great! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-LIZN-Dtak Day 1 Flooring kit Pro Ebay https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-HnK2X1EfF8https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-HnK2X1EfF8 Day 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFvx26P6fFs Drilling the floor I am very pleased with the outcome!

See my post on using epoxy and wood filler. I have a link to video showing the process. Basically it involves drilling holes in 1-2" squares and filling with epoxy then hammering dowels into the holes which you cut off after the epoxy hardens. Worked great in my unit. Hope this helps. Iflyfish

Thanks, good info. We have been looking at this. Do you have solar?
-
Good stuff!! Thanks WME! As a fisherman I recommend you keep your tip up! Iflyfishconmitoyfriends

Outstanding! Great info. Do you know if this can be used with two six volt batteries? Really appreciate your thinking on this. Iflyguy

I have installed an Inteli-charger in my '87 Sunrader. The inteli-charger pulses 14 amps to the batteries, which keeps them from sulfating the batteries during storage. I lost two Trojan Batteries in my Winnebago View before I installed an inteli-charger. My question is this: If I install solar on my Sunrader will the solar input into the system be pulsed by the inteli-charger or does the solar go directly to the battery without going thru the Inteli-charger? Thanks, Iflyfishelectrified
