Found this on Craig's List in Oh. http://toledo.craigslist.org/rvs/523017773.html Hope someone can use this information. Looks like it needs some body work. Ed...
Happy New Year For some time now, my wife and I have been planning a trip to western Canada, Yukon and Alaska in 2008. We are currently planning to leave ...
Hi Len, Yes, a bra or some other method of protecting the front of the trailer from stone chips is advisable. Do you have a stone guard over the front window?...
Len, Congratulations on your plan to drive to Alaska this summer. My wife and I made the trip in 2002 and had a great time. Unfortunately we had to hurry...
If you're going to Alaska for the fishing, maybe I could give some hints. About 3 years ago, we were in the Kenai Penninsula for 10 days and fished every day....
In 1994 we took a trip to the very northern part of Alberta, Canada in our 1987 Avion. While we were there, I saw many trailers and motor homes returning from...
If you buy some bulky tourist stuff, find out about shipping it first before you buy it. While you can ship stuff to Alaska by several ways, shipping FROM...
Len, I pulled a 1964 single axle Avion T-27 to Alaska in 1969 with a 1968 Pontiac Bonneville 400CID. The trip was a wonderful experience and I had many new ...
At first, I figured that I had nothing to offer as far as advice for a modern day Alcan Highway adventure... And I dont', but seeing as how we are telling...
Len and Bill, yes you will hear of disaster stories concerning the Alaskan Highway ( I still call it the ALCAN). But you can get a broken windshiled most...
Hi Jim. Of course you are right Jim. Accidents can happen anywhere. I remember one guy telling me that most of the damage to his tow vehicle and trailer was...
Len Showed my wife the dialogue on your planned trip, as she went with her parents in '94. She was smiling all the while reading. It was her dad's "bucket...
All, It sounds to me that for a long rough country trip a great addition would be a button-on or roll-down heavy canvas protective cover that goes from side to...
Thank you everybody for you comments, advice and recommendations with respect to our upcoming adventure. We always like to discuss the planning of our trips...
Len, Great summary! Thanks! I notice on my 1987 34 X that a prior owner had also installed stainless snap fasteners, but they are on the BACK from the top of...
Len, Another thought - re dust - I owned a movie exhibition business and had a big theatre building and learned that to prevent dust and dirty from coming in...
The shroud or metal cover over the roll-up door blind on my TT no longer stays in place because over the years the screws have stripped the thin aluminum...
Hi everyone, Something I've been meaning to ask you guys for a long time but keep forgetting.... On my 34 footer, it's got the little lights down by the floor,...
Bill, Thanks for the kind thoughts. Day late and a dollar short is the story of my life :) It may well be that way that the compressor won't kick on if it's ...
Jim, you could use the next larger sheet metal screw or you could buy some cerated aluminum that is specifically made for the purpose. The aluminum comes in...
Jim, On my '87 34 X it took me a while to figure out those little lights. On mine they are connected to the living room ceiling fixture and go on with the...
Heck Jim, You did really well compared to me.. My Delta-T wouldn't run for more then a few days at a time.. It took nearly 2 years and 4 failures to get...
Covers might be OK for storage but not for travel. Wind whips the fabric tremendously. From your rear view mirror; however, it only seems like some slight...
Thanks,Bill. I'll look into that approach. I guess I've done about the same thing by inserting tooth picks in a wood hole that has become too large. For...
Bob, I would have to defer to you re traveling with covers since I haven't tried one on my Avions. I have often traveled with canvas tarps on my stake bed...
Jim, You also might be able to use threaded pop-rivet inserts. After installing them in the old holes you would attach the brackets with machine screws. I...
I agree with Bob's comments entirely. A cover can do more damage to your trailer then you can imagine. If you decide to use a bra, make sure to remove it...
Rol, Thanks for the advice. I bet mine are just corroded up and that's why they won't come on. The living room overhead light works fine. I'll trace it out...
