How would one be able to make lights work?

Dude you are amazing Thank You for the amazing video. I have a 2001 and the top isn't closing leaves about a 1-1/2 inch gap. Any ideas or should i do what you did and remove the entire slide out? Also previous owner jerry rigged the slide out motor directly to the shaft and I have a gate latch to keep it from sliding out while driving. do you know where i can get the proper gear mechanism? Again THANKS amazing work.

I bought a 2011 F450 with no front hub caps. Bought some caps. They will not go on. Plastic chunks broke off of them. Is it possible I have non-oem lug nuts? Or is there a trick I don't know? Thanks!

Great idea! Thanks for posting!

great job. thank you for sharing this video. very helpful.

Thank you

Can this fit in the room of a rv trailer

Very helpful.

There is a better way to do it.

Awesome videos, which is why you putting the playlist BACKWARDS is a bummer!😮. Watched the slide repair series anyway. Thanks!

Jesse, we need to cook

What exactly does "PUSH TO ACTIVATE AUTO OFF" mean on the switch? Is that just a fancy long way of saying 'off'?

THAT swinging Tool Chest is NICE ! Homemade or purchased ?

Thanks for the excellent video. I did mine today. I was able to get the part from a nearby dealer for $70. 😂. This also gave me the opportunity to replace the parking brake switch which had peeling black paint. I guess after 205k miles I can't complain.

Love the 5.9👍🇺🇸

Immediately before I watched this video I was thinking of a similar method. I live have a garage, so Imstead of the saw hourses, I am going to mount supports to the walls of the garage and then extend the 2x4s between the cap and the bed. These 2x4s will be supported by the supports on the walls of the garage instead of ypur saw horses. It helps to see what you did and how it works for you. I am concerned about scratching the paint, so I think I will cover the 2x4 with a pool noodle so the foam is in co tact with the topper instead of the raw wood.

Just watching this is overwhelming. I need to get this done too.

I like how whoever in the background can't stop doing anything for 10 min. So you can make the video.

my 1181 slide motor is acting up, the front part of slide towards front of truck will come out, but the side to the back will not move, so it comes out cockeyed , any suggestion , lance camper

Was that causing your shower not to drain? My shower isn't draining and neither is my bathroom sink and its causing standing water. I tried vinegar and baking soda. Tried snaking the drains but nothing.

Made two of this 👍👍👍more warm

Nice job

It’s September 2024. A little over 4 years and still holding up like they did when new.

Great video. Ill have to do that because finding someone to help is a pain in the ass. I have to do mostly everything myself and this will be great.

Can you help me with how do I reroll the front

Very impressive. We have a 2014 Coachmen, Forest River, Ultralite, RBS192, travel trailer. The "geniuses" installed a wood particulate, 1-7/8 floor, without a drip edge, on the slide out floor, with the very unreliable black underbelly covering that resembles a woven plastic fabric, that is easily torn . I think they call that garbage "Darco," an apparent industry standard. Why? I would not use that for anything less than securing the ball of a newly dug up tree. All is does is expose water when torn and retains moisture like a green house. Was that actually specified by an engineer? I built a deck, as you did, to remove the slide out. I then replaced the rotted floor with 1/2 inch and 5/8 inch, sandwiched treated plywood. I replaced the rotted wooded framing. I then installed a roof drip edge and lapped eternabond tape over the drip edge seam, so no water can be exposed to the ends of the floor. Thank you for sharing your excellent methods of rebuilding, improving and protecting your slide out.

Awesome idea. Simple to do the whole setup by yourself too.

Nice recipe

I’m loving the Midea 8000 BTU U shaped 15 ceer AC in my RV window, 150 watts on low 525 max on hi and whisper quiet!

Brilliant tip marking sides where trusses are.

Thanks for showing us How To, I lost my cover when my fridge stopped working.

If the coax is intact, could you use it rather than running new cable? Just connect it at the antenna and again at the 12v/coax plug inside?

Is there a way i can connect to a house battery that is also charged from my vans alternator?

I have a 5000 BTU Air Conditioner and a dumb stepdad. He keeps the roof AC running all day. And that dummy thinks my 5000 BTU Air Conditioner have his bill up at about $380. Jeez, he don't even know WTF I have it on.

What is the starting watts. Those specs to spoke of are running watts and amps. It could be a deal killer.

im in a micro camper in Florida right now and in the shade I get away with a 24v 1800BTU AC. It only consumes 170watt and my house battery is 460AH charged by 320w and 50a dc-dc. It's a tiny space it needs to cool so I'm good. The AC is basically in the van's garage facing in and is vented with shared garage fan out. Its a very clean and stealthy design.. In a few years plan to build a bigger van I can stand in (maybe a 118 wheel base) and wonder if this design will work with a 5000btu AC like yours? That is venting into the shared garage and having a shared exhaust fan from a hot , muggy garage with my tools, other appliances and devices like inverter, fridge, mppt, dc-dc, etc.? also I would need to consider drainage of course.

Great job! Thank you for sharing this information and video!

Did you use the same size plywood as original?1/2” or 3/8”?

didn't really show how you load it - just putting some boards under it

What are the mounting blocks on the roof made out of?

Way to much talking..and wasted time..

In the winter, just flip that puppy around and cover the front which is now out front, and its a heat pump, it will heat faster and more efficient than an electric heater! Ive tested this with infrared and its Awesome!!

Is there any reason why I couldn't hang a trouble light with an incandescent 60 watt bulb? This would only be for a month or two until we headcout to warmer temperatures.

Dumb question here: This obviously weighs too much too install in a regular car or even RV Window right? at over 40 lbs even when used in park mode for say 2 or 3 days at a time, won't the weight be too much for long term use on the window door frame before warping or compromising the integrity structure of the window frame?

Where do you vent the water?

I have the same unit in a 12K btu ... Great little units

Thank you for the video! We need installation details. What about condensation? Where does the air come from at the side and top A/C vents?

Very useful research, thank you very much!

What are the sizes for those small lugs you used to hardwire those 3 wires to the inverter? Thanks
