We are in Arizona and the temperatures have gotten up to the low...

    Cracking noise from jacks/Frane

    Cracking noise from jacks/Frame Hi, Here’s a situation, how it came to be, and the (simple) solution my dear wife suggested to solve it.

    Because I could not find this info: We are in our 5th season of camping with our T21TBHW. Things are beginning to wear out. The (cheapo) sink faucet was beginning to stiffen to the point I was afraid it would break at any time. As I researched replacements, I found that the same plastic...

    Camco Wash and Wax for A-frames?

    I've seen the Camco Wash and Wax recommended for washing the fiberglass but I'm concerned about the bubble windows since it contains quaternary ammonium chloride. I read that ammonia is not good for the bubble windows and it would be really hard to avoid them. Any advice?

    Broken frame welds, front of 2000 Grandby

    Hi, folks - My efforts to repair my 2000 Grandby continue. Latest discovery is that welds have broken on the three short frame tubes at the front of the camper. I expect this is from the camper banging into the lip of the truck bed (an issue I am addressing). It's currently impractical to...

    Entry door separating from frame

    Our 2019 Forrest River Wildwood entry door is separating. It was always really hard to close and people would always ask us why, but we thought that’s just the way it was supposed to be.
