Head to your local hardware store and the Hilman bolt and nut bins. Look for furniture fixtures, barrel nuts and thumb screws. If you have ever assembled any of the furniture that comes in a flat box, the you have probably used them.
Great idea! As a quick alternative and fix for moving visors I've also seen people use a binder clip in the Keder rail to keep it from moving around..... I think you could take orders and sell your neat mod!
We will keep posting as we do more towing. This first trip was flat terrain and terrible Seattle traffic. In a couple weeks we will travel to the East side of the state over snoqualmie pass, then to Glacier National Park the first week of Sept. So I am looking forward to seeing the difference in power when traveling over these mountain passes. So far, I can say we are liking this vehicle. We were able to take 7 people to dinner the other night. We will now have the ability to bring along our canoe, bikes, and extras and not exceed our weight limit on the hitch and tow vehicle. MORE TO COME!
Thanks to all for the advice. Yesterday I bought 2 Duracell 6v - 115s...$117 each after military discount! Dropped them right in my standard 2018 CS-S tub! Had to push my sewer hose sleeve 2" to the left. Lights are on and everything fits like a glove. I fashioned a cover out of tote lid. Heading to Steamboat Springs in a few hours and will see if anything moves but I doubt it.
Update: so glad we switched the battery setup... Boondock Friday night till Sunday afternoon... to a fridge the whole time, hot water, fantastic fan and even a movie or two... Never dropped below 12 volts. Great trip home except for the I-70 Sunday traffic but nothing budged at all in the tub. Love our T@B.
Yay! I think... I haven't heard back from Alde U.S. or Sweden :-( so I called the TransWest trucker dudes up in Grand Junction (thanks to the Alde app referral). They answered the phone quickly and connected me with Kevin in Service...he's had experience with the symptoms and knew exactly what I was talking about; he strongly suggested NOT to mess with the fuel mixture (or bother with the pump), but did have success with increasing the propane regulator pressure from 11 to 13wc (water column) inches. Says it'll help with running the fridge as well. Since any RV shop can do this, I'll be taking our T@B across town to Tarpley soon! If this works it'll be a huge help to a lot of folks....
Frost772, check the setting on your Alde pump. You can locate it under the driver side bench. It should be somewhere between 1-2. If set too high, it causes the glycol to circulate faster, may bubble more in the glycol reservoir in the hatch behind the toilet and cause the noise you heard.
I second the pump setting. Mine made a horrible gurgling sound and it drove me crazy. I turned down the pump setting and I get zero gurgling now. There are still some other noises from the system but the gurgling was the worst. Problem solved.
