I’ll have a write up on what needed to be done to bring the fans up to modern standards.the original fans were great for their day but these days they are more nostalgia imo than actual well function...

Re: Roof vent fan insert

Here’s the link. It’s just one of several. https://www.campingworld.com/vortex-ii-vent-fan-upgrade-59009.html That fan won’t work. The Avion fan and opening are very rounded on the corners and just a tad smaller than 14 inch opening. I fought with my fans and the covers for a year. I finally found ...

Re: Aluminum Dent Repair

Be really careful painting aluminum. You usually need to prep really well as most paints tend to de laminate after a while. You can try a paint less dent repair but aluminum stretches differently than steel. You can try a slide hammert uses a hot glue tips rather than the typical old school screws. ...

Re: Giant hole in Frame, Gray Tank moved?

It’s most likely normal. They probably cit a big hole as they didn’t want the pipe to get any interference from the frame. You gotta remember that isn’t a area where most people look so ot doesn’t have to be esthetically eye pleasing. I personally wouldnt weld next to a plastic tank. Especially one ...

Re: Extension table

Mine was stored in a cubby. When you pulled the table out there was a built in cabinet across the front of the trailer. It has a hidden CUNY to the left as you sat inside looking to the front.

Re: Walking on top?

I would dent the hell out of mine. I wet a piece of plywood and put a ratchet strap to bend it. Then I glued some foam to the bottom. Holds me up and no dents. I replaced my AC that way.

Re: For sale not mine 34XB

Could be a nice trailer and they simply are that rare that I say he gets that price. Personally I wouldn’t go any lower in fact I would probably ask more. Agreed on all accounts.
