How to reattach tent bunk ends to camper?
Has anyone removed their bunk tent end and reattached? I need some advice and tips.
2004 Starcraft 23SRB, doing some cleaning up and work to sell and I've removed the tent end from one bunk for cleaning and repairing a zipper.
The edge of the canvas has a rigid strip (inside the canvas it seems) that slides into the aluminum trim around the bunk opening.
It looks like I should spread this aluminum channel open a little and use a blunt tool to push the canvas into the channel, then tap or squeeze it closed to hold tight.
Alternatively, I could just try to lube and push the canvas into the slot, but not sure how it would hold up. Seems like it would take a lot of pressure and not sure how I will get the angle I need?
If this works out, I plan to remove the other bunk tent end, too. Sooo much easier to clean, what I've done so far looks like new!
Thanks in advance.
