What did you do to your Class C MH today???

This is always a fun thread to watch in other forums, so I thought I'd start one here.

It works great. Takes a little while to get the last 5 psi in my 95 psi tires. That makes the screw on inflation connector a plus with the pump.

Since I only have to go to 65 psi I don't believe that it'll be a problem.

Also put that shiny bubble insulation on the inside of the engine dog house. Just cut to fit then use spray adhesive. Tape and/or clamp insulation in place until adhesive sets. Really cuts the sound and heat down.

That stuff is not high temp rated and will probably melt when the weather is hot ..... might even cause a fire. Try using a heat gun on it and see what happens ..... it just shrivles up

Dan, thanks for pointing that out. I really didn't consider it. It's been in for some time now and several thousand miles with no problems but I'll sure keep an eye on it. Apparently its rated to 180 degrees but I can see how it might breakdown over time.

Since you already have one Ron, how's it work for you? If it can be modified, I'll have changed out in the time it takes to get the parts to modify it... I'll report back what I find.

I have the same compressor. Please report back when you get your hose modified. I have not found anything that will work yet.

[Kendas]

Ordered a "Master Flow MF-1050 Tsunami 12v High Volume Portable Air Compressor" from Amazon... Needed something portable and this one has pretty good reviews. Tired of going to the "one" gas station in the area (mile and a half away) that still has a "real" compressor and doesn't charge for air. Most of the time it's too crowded with cars and I feel a bit guilty checking seven tires at one visit. I'll probably convert the hose and air chuck to something a little more "standard" after I see what the included ones look/work like.

Fixed the exhaust leak in my Tioga. The last bolt on the right exhaust manifold was broken (Ford 360). I was able to drill it out and retap the hole with the help of a right angle drill and a mirror. Closed the .013 gap down to .002 then put 2 coats of high temp 'ThermoSteel' over the remainder.

Yesterday. Removed cover, fired up furnace, and started loading up for trip south to warmer weather. -17F is just to cold to stay up north any longer.

[rayamash]

welded a skid plate and to the frame to protect holding tanks.

replaced both flat screen tv holds with ones that tilt downward. Now kids happier when laying on couch, and better viewing while laying in bed in back. Going to use one of the old for side mounted bracket on the outside of the MH for tailgating at college football games.
Couple of days ago bought a tow dolly to tow car.

Well I just finished a few things on the rig. I used that silver/bubble insulation and covered the overhead and kitchen windows. I used velcro so that I can take off when ever I want to. I Also used this stuff to cover the main door and overlapped it over the frame. Also used velcro on the edges. This will be used primary for nights and when gone most of the day skiing. Did I mention that I am now winter camping.

The only thing left is tring to find some heavy throw rugs down for the dogs and some insulation on the floor.

Happy Camping, Robert.
