I purchased my 2004 Glacier in Jan. of 04 and had owned other chinooks before. I discoverd that all screws for outside trims,lights ladders top rails and...
Larry, I am not sure by what you meen "they have a steel tip"? All steel screws have a steel tip. Stainless or not. If I remember correctly there is feritic...
Great idea! However, the screws that I am more concerned about are the ones we can't see - especially ones that hold the carious ground leads to the chassis...
I'm betting that when they say magnetic screws/tips they mean ferrous metal which rusts (right?) But a seriously great fix for lots of the little grounding...
George and the group. Being a relatively new Chinook owner ( Bought it Sept 07 )it has been very helpful to read the questions and responses by members of this...
Jon, I hooked up a CB to my Concourse and routed the antenna cable down thru the existing hole where Chinook had already run the crank up OTA antenna. Once...
Since our Glacier does not have a locking gas door like our Concourse does, I am in the market for a locking gas cap. That 55 Gal tank is getting a little too...
Steve-- The Glacier gas cap is a standard Ford E-450 cap. I bought mine from CarQuest and is their catalog number 35073. Theirs are made by Stant and may...

We bought our 2002 Concourse in May. A few minor repairs and new tires it it's really a great RV, except that the Solar Panels don't do anything. Does anyone...
You need to get to the raw input wire coming from the solar panel and check it for voltage......I'm suspecting a single one of the panels on top (many wired in...
We just got a 1999 Premier. I can find a lot of info on winterizing but none on setting the unit up for winter camping still being able to use the plumbing...
Don I froze my shower head and sink heads and water pump two years ago...in Arlington. I just moved to Southlake but haven't winterized yet and may pay the...
Thanks George. This may sound dumb, but the pink stuff is only if you aren't going to need to use the plumbing ffixtures. Right? You can't just put it in...
Don, we have a 2000 Concourse. A very vulnerable area is the valve on the toilet flush lever. If water is sitting in there it can easily freeze and cause a...
Don, Yes, the pink stuff (Wal*Mart sells it) is RV and Marine antifreeze... just non toxic. Drain the water heater by relieving any pressure... (open hot...
Don, here's a couple of suggestions from someone living in Western Colorado (tonights temp is forecasted at -5 F.). As a semi- winterzation (when I will be...
Don I have a 99 Premier that I leave the pink stuff in and use it just like water for the toilet. We drink bottled water and use the showers at campgrounds or...
Although folks seem to feel the "Pink stuff" leaves a bad taste.......I did swizzle some around in my mouth last year to see for myself...(no. I didn't ...
I live in Cooolllddd Minnesota and really endorse Cochinook's suggestions. I also do winter camping and can add a couple more suggestions to his list. 1) The...
I think the easiest way to prepare the Chinook for winter is to keep it as close to the Gulf Coast as possible and watch the cold fronts on the Weather Channel...
Jon, I hooked up a CB and antenna to my 05 Concourse a couple of weeks ago...I received good input from some members here and on the other Chinook site: ...
Hi Don, I too hope to hear some responses from experienced cold weather campers and how they camp when it is below freezing. I also live in a moderate climate...

Don, We have done a lot of winter camping in our 2000 Concourse (4WD) including camping in temps well below zero. We use it a lot for XC skiing and just camp...
Where are the valves to drain the freshwater tank in a 2000 Concourse? I see two valves at the end of the water tank nearest the driver's seat. What do these...
