Avion truck campers - Hundreds of photos
Without going into too much painful detail, we had a mishap several week-ends ago. While working with sand bag crews on the Mississippi River, the truck and camper fell into the flood waters as a road...

Rastaman - NEPA is a full days drive North for you. Just follow the snowbirds in April. If you see Garryk, you went too far.
For a grey tank, I was considering just carrying one of those portable wheeled tanks but wasn't sure where to stash it while going down the road.
The current dilemma.
A previous owner had spun a bearing on the right rear wheel. This chewed up the spindle pretty bad. I have been running a tight preload and 'feeding it' new bearings as needed which has worked fine for shorter trips. That was with a few hundred pounds of tongue weight, not a bed full of Avion.
Turns out, not only can this be repaired, but it can be done roadside. I might not be out of the game yet, still trying for a Florida meet.
Silver....thats funny....a days drive isnt bad and it will be new scenery for me....April will not work for me as I will be headed down to the big bend area for a few weeks.
For gray water I am still contemplating a network of pvc piping???just have not gotten there yet..my hands are still full of other stuff.
Btw are you doing solar?....and if so are you planning to permanently mount them. I use a couple of 100 watt panels 2'x4' that will be need to be portable as I use them in other locations.
I am thinking of building a rack of sorts to transport them under the bunk over the cab, or between the back glass and the front of the camper or under one of the wings.
If any one has done this I would welcome some ideas
good luck with your axle.
