      These big RVs were ahead of their time. The rear suspension is a killer way to have dual wheels while keeping you from dealing with that inside wheel’s tire pressure hassles. Great idea fixing one back up. Happy camping.

But I've got to honestly say I enjoy this just as much. You two don't even realize how much your teaching people that with some elbow grease and patience anything can be done. I truly envy you and your dad's relationship that you all can do this stuff together. I've never had anything like that. I'm not a religious person but the only word I can come up with is that y'all are blessed.

    Michael, I've said it before, this is one of your best series yet. The Porsche was the best, in my opinion, and this is number two. Good stuff. Hey, a suggestion, if you don't mind: in your bathroom cabinet, I noticed some rusty discoloration. Something that may work in getting that out is muriatic acid - yeah, acid. It won't harm the fiber glass and a little bit on an old rag should do it. give it a try. It works. Wear gloves though!

Like that counter top and the sliding doors, the wood giving it little bit extra. And the sound proofing is more than okay, it will bring some more comfort when driving. Side paneling is given a great update with the wood arm wrest and is making the picture complete ! Love this video very much and wish you both lots of success with oncoming jobs on this great Motor home !

    You guys really think out of the box. The bathroom transformation was spot on. The sound deadening up front will really make driving much more comfortable. I'm not sold on your latch for the battery and tank. If the screws are not into any metal framing, it would only be time until the weight of things bouncing against the latch pulling the screws out. If you want to keep your fix, try this. Take a large long bolt with a flat washer, drill a hole in each slide tray, drop the bolt in so it drops deeper than the metal frame. Trays are not going to come out!
