I appreciate all the feedback. I would think there are several of us out there who have snagged a low slung limb, or shanked a Titleist, and have had to deal with this problem. I just needed to try once more to find a factory replacement before giving up and looking for an alternative. My...

I have restored my 1998 Funmaker but one sore point still remains - the air conditioner cowling has become brittle from sun exposure and has broken in several places. I would like to replace it with original equipment but I can't find the cowling for an "Emmerson Quite-Cool 1100". If anyone...

I need an Owner's Manual for a 1988 funmaker. Anyone out there have one I could make a copy of?

Partitions (2 of 2) To keep the partitions in a closed position when not in use, I devised this roof-mounted latching mechanism. It's a wooden wedge with a piece of FRP plastic that was leftover from the ceiling replacement. It automatically latches when you press the partition up against the...

Partitions (1 of 2) For the partitions, I used moulding similar to that shown to make a frame. Fabric was sandwiched between the two pieces. I used "square" reinforcing hardware to secure the 4 corners. Hinges were used to attach the completed frames to the vertical stringers that ran...

'Sorry, no before/after photos. Looking back I should have documented the renovation process but it just didn't occur to me at the time. My guess is that if you have rotted cabinet mounts, the damage you don't see is much worse that you think. You might patch it up, but in the end, the...

*I applied Scotts liquid gold* My cabinet doors were badly dried-out and looked terrible. I used lemon oil on them and they look great, but they are now much darker than the *fake* wood used throughout the rest of the camper. I'm OK with that. There is a trim-strip along the top edge of the...

*how were the cupboards fastened to the wall* The cabinets have a false bottom loosely stapled into place. Beneath the false bottom there is a 1x1 inch strip along the back edge attached directly to the wall. The real real cabinet bottom is attached to this strip from underneath. To dress it...

Once again, thanks to everyone for your quick and expert assistance. I'll keep the bars for now and start looking into the price of the W/D ballmount. But, just another general question from someone who is totally ignorant when it comes to W/D hitches... with the variable weight of the...

In my blissful ignorance, hauling boats back and forth to the lake on weekends, occasionally helping a friend move by towing a U-Haul, or otherwise finding an occasional use for the Reese receiver on my 2003 Toyota Tacoma XtraCab, I simply didn't give much thought to anything more than the size...

There was another post that I found quite helpful... Hi-Lo camper travel trailer forum > Maintenance and repair > Hydraulic lift system > repairing bottom glides of top half 'Nothing to it... except that before you start, you need to raise it up to its full height, disconnect all four lift...

First I had to clean the tree sap off the whole roof with a wire brush and a scraper followed by a thorough cleaning with a 50% clorox solution to get it down to the bare metal. In the two worst places, I installed pieces of aluminum flashing over the existing roof. After cutting/fitting, I...

Sorry, I didn't mean to be misleading, but I'm not giving it away for FREE - - I got it really cheep and plan to use it myself for many years to come. This one was purchased new and moved once to a scenic spot on a private fish pond down in South Alabama where it sat for the next 20 years...

Thanks for your suggestions and the pointer to the service manual. I had already isolated and excluded gas pressure as the problem. By turning off all lights and disconnecting the fridge, the re-ignition problem seems to occur less frequently and will usually work on one of the retrys before...

I can't say enough good things about these guys. Somehow they're able to provide new parts for my 1988 Fun Maker. When I needed tail lights, the original supplier (Reflect-O-Lite) had gone out of business. Jim salvaged a couple of them off of one of his old campers and swapped lights with me...

Heater wouldn't work in 1988 Fun Maker w/Suburban furnace so I removed the unit, opened it up, and cleaned out a dirt dobber nest. Now it works, somewhat... when I switch the thermostat on, I get blower, then igniter, flame, and presto, heat! When the temp reaches the thermostat high limit, I...

Thanks I emailed J&R on Saturday and got a same-day reply from Rob L. They have exactly what I needed. Thanks everyone.

I am replacing the dry-rotted interior walls and the bottom band/seal on the upper half of my recently purchased 1988 hi-lo model 2088d. I need the following parts: On the lower half of the trailer, there are 5 vertical guide rails. There are guide-followers attached to the bottom band of the...
