Excellent, thanks for that. I'll take a look!

You guys are 100% correct! I checked it out.. that is the brake fluid. The guy I bought it from told me it was the hydraulic fluid so I just took his word for it without looking into it. In that case, do you happen to know where I check the hydraulic fluid? I’ve attached pictures of the old...

Awesome Jennifer! You’re the first person I’ve heard from that has the same model and year as us! Ours had quite a bit of water damage so we are redoing a lot of it. It won’t be original but at least it’s still an oldie on the road! We are starting to document the remodel on our Instagram if...

Thanks renoites! I figured as much. What exactly is ATF? Just want to make sure I get the right stuff. Now I just have to figure out where the drain is on this thing! Kadin

Thanks you guys! I’ve figured out the install (- the exhaust) ... I’ve routed the propane that is going to the fridge into a seat where I installed a valve so that I can shut off the propane to just the refrigerator while leaving the propane going to the stove. There is a push button Ignition...

Hi All! Now that the weather has finally warmed up a bit here in Montana I'm out putting things together on a somewhat recent purchase of a 1968 Snyder Hi-Lo. I just checked the hydraulic fluid for the first time and attached images of what it looks like. Doesn't look good to me but I have no...

Thanks for the reply KnottyRig, It is a 1968 hi-lo... it had an old ice box in it so I am having to install everything.. Which is pretty tricky for someone like me that knows nothing about how these are set up. The 12v really isn't a problem as that will only be activated when we are in...

Hi, I've contacted the manufacturer but haven't heard back from them yet... hoping someone here can help. I bought a 60L SMAD 3 way refrigerator and I am unsure if I need to install a separate switch for the 12v connection. I'd like to wire the 12v into the battery but I'm not sure I can...

Thanks so much for the help so far you guys! It is freezing cold here in Montana right now and I don't have a shop so I haven't gone ahead with this yet. I'll keep you all updated once I can get out there are work on it.

Thanks JackandJanet! Yes, I do realize I am doing it sort of a funky way. I was planning on just putting a 5 gallon bucket under where there drain is and then just dumping that at the dump station when at a campground... If I had the grey water storage attached underneath then I would have to...

Hey everyone! I am working on getting my camper all set up and ready to go and currently looking into water storage options. Right now I have a sink and faucet but there isn't any water storage of any kind. My hilo is an old 1968 16 footer so there isn't a lot of space. I am thinking of...

Hey all! I am just wondering if anyone knows anything about the brakes on a 1968 snyder hi-lo? I can't seem to find any info on them and would like to look up how to work on them. I don't much about about brakes but I am pretty good at following directions! :) Thanks, Kadin

Haha, I certainly do count myself lucky. I sure hope it lasts for awhile! The brass lever with the holes is what you push to make the whole top go up and down. I believe you push it to the right to make the top go down and push it to the left to make it go up. The white wire is 100%...

Thanks for helping out Jack. Sorry the photo is flopped on its side... I don't know why.. it isn't flipped in the file I have. Anyways, The white wire is the one I am talking about. It is connected to the hydraulic system in between where the positive (black) cable is attaching... the it...

Hi, I've got myself a handful here. I just bought a 1968 hi-lo and I am trying to figure out the wiring of everything... please excuse my ignorance, this is all new to me. Looks like there is a wire coming off of the hydraulic lift, runs under the camper to the front tongue area and then is...

Thanks Treeclimber! Lets see how it goes! :D

I just got a 1968 Snyder Hilo and it has a Carlson floor furnace in it. I'd like to remove it but not sure what the process is (I know nothing about furnaces or campers). I imagine I need to let out whatever propane is in the lines before I disconnect it. Does this just involve turning off...

Thanks you guys! I did a search for a Snyder 1968 and just found one thread... looks like I'll need to dig deeper!

Hi everyone! I just recently bought a 1968 Snyder hi lo and don't know anything about it! I'll scour the forums but I do have a couple questions if there is anyone reading that has a similar model... Does anyone know of a proprane refrigerator that is roughly the same size as this old ice box...
