We will probably string along some after rally travel as well. Had a great time previously and look forward to seeing any familiar faces from last time. Hopefully the lakes will be a bit fuller with the rain we are supposed to get with the El Nino this winter, we'll see. Take care.Re: 2006 AF 990 odd slide issueWhat year is your camper? I have a 2019 990. Is there someplace you need me to look for some nameplate info? If you called Northwood did you ask for the service dept? The sales guy is not the go to guy. Call service and ask for Justin. he's good in my experience.Re: PSA Annoucement Regarding Spilled Beer.....Guess I need to keep the beer in the cab instead of the camper? What could go wrong there?Re: deploying side awning5 gallon buckets work in a pinch.Re: Soft StartI also have the micro air unit on my 9k AC unit on my AF990. Works fine even when running my 2k generator.Re: Bigfoot 2500 Underbelly, Thoughts and PicsIn for a penny in for a pound. Yeah I think most properly supported tanks are actually held in suspension above the bottom panel as that section is fairly lightweight and would not be able to support the full fill weight. Oh and thanks for the video amigo! I did end up adding the Weboost cell booster thanks to you guys at our stop in Wash, took the afternoon and it works great. Looking forward to hopefully next year.Re: Replacement awning fabric for a 2012 Lance 855S camperI haven't had to replace my rear awning like the one your referring to but I have had to replace the drivers side 9' pull out waning and also the slide topper cover. I always found what I needed from the Carefree of Colorado website. Just call their Ph# and speak to a tech their really helpful as to help figuring out exactly what you will need. Good luck.Re: Turnbuckle adviceEhh incorrect on the HJ not being spring loaded. I have had these "fastgun" style turnbuckles and they have internal springs on front and rear. Typically want about 1/4" of stretch when properly tensioned and set in place. Of course you can also lengthen and shorten overall length as required.Re: Turnbuckle adviceI went with the lower priced Happyjack “fastgun” style turnbuckles. That being said I also went with the Torklift frame mount tie downs. They have worked out just fine and saved a couple bucks too.Re: Steep Off-Road Grade with Truck CamperDee Zee bed mat get one from Amazon .
