We Bought a RV Clark!! Oh no! Rebuild thread

[Dylan W.]

I will spend a little time this week cleaning it up a bit and making sure we are good to go for our first trip . Were gonna head to Uwharrie for the CTB Fun Caravan !

Maybe I can get it all cleaned up and declare an official picture day!

I switched all of the brake and reverse lights over to LED.

I had to cut on my front liscense plate mount a bit.

Had to make sure this plate would fit!!

So are you done? Is there no finished product for us to OOHH and AAHH over? C'mon man!

I checked it out at the Veteran run. Top notch work! Better than new!

Yes! I guess I left the thread hanging a bit. Still need an awning, and ladder bur other than that it's done. Been camping twice so far. I'll get updates and more pics soon.

Update! We have had a few successful camping trips so far including a jeep tow trip up to Kairos WV.
I havnt really accomplished much mechanical work on the rv other than a good oil change.
That's about to change!

How did you end up doing your generator? Last I remember reading, you were planning to put a portable style on a trailer hitch basket, and use it while driving.

So far, I have not ran the generator while driving. I do have the hitch basket and have mocked it up, but just haven't actually done it on a trip. Farthest I've been is 3 hour trip, the fridge stayed cold.

If that "gravel" road going in or the hill going up to Kairos didn't cause any issues, you're likely good going forward!
