So what did you do to your Truck Camper today?

[Mello_Mike]

I saw these threads in some of the other Open Roads RV Forums, but didn't see one for TCs.

I'll start...

I installed Interior LED puck lights and a 12v power outlet.

Which one did you get? I've been using the Qwik-Fill system for the last couple years myself :).

Ordered a new airlift bellows for the driver's side, replacing anything that might have been damaged in the big bump last October.

Me too! But I am next week! I'll post trip photos then.

Tonite though, I started installing the new LED marker lights. I only put two on the front so far and then it got dark. Here are a few comparison photos. I like the LEDs. They are brighter and seem to have a more yellow glow, albeit a lighter yellow than the OEM lights. 12 to go before we leave next Wednesday..





And here is one just for fun... Only the front 2 side marker lights have been replaced so far... I ran out of time and will be gone until next Monday. the rest may have to wait until we get back!

Repaired the outside shower and re-installed using SS screws and Eternabond caulk.

Installed two sealed 14 diode LED clearance lights and sealed the hole that the wires came through along with the screw holes. NO MORE clearance light lends leaking and rotting the front end!!! Tested installation - all good.

Started re-caulking all seams, trim, and joints with ProFlex RV caulk.

Had a talk with the camper, told her that I had not forgotten about her, and that winter is almost over. So don't fret. And that she will be riding on new tires and rims (19.5), and a bigger sway bar in front. She was a happy camper!

Made its ride platform a little better by installing four new R9000 Rancho shocks, changed the oil and greased everything. Only 5 weeks before we leave on our cross country 6 mo trip.

Not really doing too much with the camper at the moment, well, I did dump the black tank again last night, it was full.

I have been working on my new garage stall in the park barn so I can move my extra living gear in some place a little safer from the weather :).

Yesterday I took the cover off my camper, Come On Spring!

Wow, msiminoff! That's pretty impressive. I want one.

I love that switch panel too. We use to make switch panels for the dashes of our race cars and personalized them for each car or owner. A local Trophy Shop did the work, with the dimensions and artwork I provided. If you can't do it yourself, I certainly don't have the talent/equipment, throw a local business your business.
