DW and I have a 2014 Octane 161, the Happijac bed only comes down about half way, requiring a latter to get on or off the bed, which is not expectable for us. I bought the Octane knowing that I would modify the Happijac bed. I plan on replacing the rails to longer ones, so that the bed will lower to a height which would be easier to get on and off. This height would be just above the install furniture when in the sleeping position. Question I am interested in the wall blocking below the stock Happijac bed rails, which will come to about one foot off the fender wells. Thanks for your help.

JohnnieRe: Supply Propane from RV to Grill?Well, here is an update to the propane conections. I wanted to beable to put the baby Q out from the awning, so I had about 15 feed of hose from the quick disconect to the baby Q, with out the baby Q regulator, as the port on the RV came from the RV regulator. Not sure if the hose length caused the porblem, but the flame from the baby Q was so low it was not usable. Did some temporary replumbing and got the baby Q running properly. The baby Q was not double regulatored. So today, as we are going camping again, it the weather hold up, I replumbed the quick disconect from the RV stright to one of the porpane bottles on the RV. Tested the baby Q, and it works as it should. Not sure why it did not work properly from the RV regulator, but it did not. it does work porperly with high preasure form the RV porpane tank to the requlator of the baby Q. Thanks again for all the input. JohnnieRe: Ham radio repeatersReviews on the ARRL TravelPlus Mobile GPS for Garmin.
