Got the Class C out of storage and did a little clean up last week to get ready for the late season. The lockdowns have been rough, I really miss travelling!
After cleaning, I went over the rig and Dicor'd a few spots. Most notably the cabover area. Nothing looks to have been leaking, but there were some trouble spots starting in the corners. I pulled off the outside trim pieces and all looked ok underneath so just sealed them back up and snugged in new slightly oversize SS screws (they were loosening a bit at the ends of the trim).
On the inside I restrung a day/night pleated shade that snapped a string on our last trip in January, not as tough as I thought. For a $20 kit I saved having to buy a new $120 blind! Beer money. :B
I also relocated my spare from the rear to a storage compartment so I could snug up the bike rack a little closer to the back, and move some weight forward at the same time. Also relocated my rear camera by mounting it to the old tire mounting bracket. Free and easy, my favorite kind of mod!
Taking it in to a shop in a few days for an oil change and once over by the mechanic, ready to hit the road!
