Free Camper Adventure: Do these tip over?
For those of you following my "got it for free" camper thread, we went last weekend and cleaned it out, hauled away 3 trash bags of stuff the PO left behind. Camper is in really good shape inside. Not a lot of room to move around because with no power and no battery, couldn't put the slide out.
Noob Question: When the camper is off the truck, can you get up into the bed area or will it tip over? Right now (due to the RF jack issue, ie lack thereof...) the camper is sitting on 2x8's on top of cement block stacks.
On the advice of a fellow forum member who is now on his 10th rotted camper repair, I purchased a moisture meter. This will help me locate additional areas that may have been leaking and need repair.
I was also able to get a hold of Lance (what nice folks!) and they sent me construction diagrams for the side walls, with measurements, so I know exactly how it goes together and the exact size of each framing piece. I also found out that my unit was optioned with a solar pre-wire and heated holding tanks.
