aluminum

:eek:I finally had a blowout on my 265 RGX Wildcat Max. Very lucky that I was only doing about 40 mph at the time of the blowout, fella following wat too close had a shock. Very little damage to the rig It was an original tire made in the 44th week of 2016. My question is that I plan on putting...

I’m new to the skoolie forums and noticed that there were a lot of questions regarding welding/fabrication. There are, what seems like, a couple skilled welders on the forum and I wanted to create a thread to help answer questions for people that are unfamiliar with welding, sheet metal...

I’m looking for advice on the best method for attaching two large 315 watt solar panels to the aluminum roof of my Work and Play 18EC. The aluminum seems too flexible and uneven to use eternabond tape and there is nothing to screw to other than the thin aluminum sheeting unless I can find the...

I am looking for a place to purchase the small u shaped aluminum black trim pieces? Specifically I need these pieces to go around the entrance door cover board.

....mounted to the side of the trailer, inline with the top front edge of both slide outs. These aren't big. Maybe 3 1/2" tall, and 1 1/2" wide. Two piece assembly. One piece(held in place fore and aft with two screws) slides into the part that is screwed to the side of the trailer. The assembly...

Where can we find a vendor that will sell us an aluminum panel damaged by a tire blowout? We want to replace it ourselves and parts for Forest River campers are impossible to find. We have a 2014 Blue Ridge by Forest River model 3710 BH.

I have a 1999 Chevy Silverado 1500 with the factor aluminum rims. It came with p rated 265/75/16 max psi 35, I put LT on with max psi 80. I know it might sound silly but sometimes I over think. Also what psi should I run on the truck- empty and loaded?

We're contemplating purchasing a Sierra/Sandpiper 384QBOK or a Chapparal 367BH in the coming year or two and I'm starting to do my due diligence on both. We currently have a 2012 Sabre 32BHTS, which we absolutely love, but are outgrowing and these other models give us a little more space...

I have an 18' w&p, what is the best sealer for the aluminum roof joints.? Thanks

Decided that since we can’t leave right now with all the craziness going on, that I’d polish my wheels.... Got a polishing attachment for my heavy-duty drill, some Mother’s Aluminum Polish, some microfiber rags and started..... Really pleased with end results.....

I have an old CB that I finally fixed the power plug on. I have a magnetic mount antenna. How did you mount your CB antenna? I found an expensive steel bracket that mounts behind the high center brake light, bent steel plates that come up between the hood and fender, and bolted in the forward...

Hi everyone, I had to cut underbelly to access some wires that were chewed by a mouse on my 2019 Forest River Sonoma Q29QBS. While looking around, I saw a flexible aluminum hose that is not connected to anything hanging. It is pretty cramped, could not see what the other end connects to. This...

Bought a 2020 cedar creek in april, we did 7 trips thru october, 3 of them were out of state. After washing the wheels getting ready for winter, I noticed that the wheels had some kind of etching or something going on under the clearcoat/anodizing. Has anyone else had these problems and were you...

Got a new project delivered. Not sure what year though? Got it delivered on Saturday and stripped down Sunday! Had a sink and stove, but did not see a furnace. I am thinking to do the following and appreciate any advice for this build: Make it a shell that rest on the truck's bed rails Chop...

I recently had a mobile wash/wax done on my Berkshire 39A. Whatever they used to wash it dulled/stained the aluminum wheels. I used mother’s aluminum wheel polish to bring them back to a shine. Just wondering how often I’ll need to do that. What is your experience?

My Forest River NOBO 19.1 Trailer has aluminum square channel as its wall framing inside the Azdel panels. I can detect them with a stud finder, but I am quite scared to drill into the walls without knowing whats there. The main reason is, you just can't make a mistake with the very thin vinyl...

Hello all, Have a 2017 22RR Grey Wolf Toy hauler and looking to trade up to a 23 Pack 15 Toy Hauler. I am very fussy with cleaning my equipment. They have both types of siding for this model. Not sure what to go with. Opinions would be very great full. Thank you.

Helped my Uncle change out his gas only Atwood water heater in his 20 year old motorhome. He had been using it all season (so far) and was boondocking on the water pump when it erupted. He said most of the motorhome's life was spent in New Mexico where their water was pretty corrosive. The...

Hi I have a 2017 wolf pup 16fq and I'm wondering what the torque spec is for the wheel lugs on an aluminum rim.

Backstory: We tend to do most of our down time outside of the camper (it's pretty hot in southern Utah)—we love the awning and we like to camp by big shady trees too and sit outside. And as a special bonus my wife is a vegetarian and I'm a meat-a-sorrus, so I try not to cook hamburgers and...

I currently have the Husky centerline sway and weight distribution set up. The hitch alone is ridiculously heavy, and I cannot lift it...probably overkill for my Rockwood Roo camper too. I'm looking for a much lighter setup. I need something that I can use alone. Is there such a thing...

We just purchased a 2019 R-Pod RP-180 with the Lions Head "Cheetah" style aluminum wheels. See Here I plan on using a TST 507 TPMS on the R-Pod wheels and need to change the stock rubber valve stems to metal valve stems. The one thing I can't find anywhere on line is what size valve stem does...

Ok i recently started a purchase on a floor model shell. My issue is drilling holes in my aluminum bed and putting in steel eyebolts. This will cause galvanic corrosion no matter what they say they are drilling a hole and creating a contact between two metals. I have placed my 3k non refundable...

Just a follow up to my aluminum rim situation on our 2016 321 Freedom Express Liberty. I emailed and sent photos to the warranty person from Lionshead Rim and Tire who supplied FR with the rims on our unit. Basically I was told that the deteriorating rims are out of the 1 year warranty...

Hey all, I’m using 8 pieces of 8 ft aluminum angle to create solar rail for my 6 100 panels but I’m having trouble with my curved bus roof. I have curved renogy z bracket feet so mounting the rail on a curved surface is not the problem- the issue is that mounting the panels on the sides of the...
