Done Some Upgrades to the Fifth Wheel!

Well I have had a bit of cabin fever lately with all the rain here so I have been working away on the fiver. Installed a 50 amp hardwired surge protector which required me to get out the mitre saw to build a box of sorts to mount it on in a small utility compartment. I had a portable 30 amp unit that we used on our last trailer but it was not much use on this unit being it is 50 amp. I then installed 4 new Interstate 6V batteries that were on sale on the RV show, and also installed a new Jack HDTV antenna in place of the old batwing unit. We now have 10 crystal clear HDTV channels so I'm quite impressed!:C

Now we just need some dryer weather to uncover, touch up sealant, wash and wax and get camping!:B
