A quick way to separate the top from the bottom is to drive down the highway at 75mph into a headwind and it will separate all by itself. Not a joke. I recommend adding a tiedown system for the front of top to the bottom. I recommend Wander the West...

Ironic we were drinking a Hamm's last night and a friend was discussing the brewery in Minneapolis (St. Paul). It's now brewed in Milwaukee. So much for the "from the land of sky blue waters"

This has been one of the most interesting of trips. Totally a new local for a change. A fun look into Russia and different from the usual one we get to see. Thanks, -Brad

Check with Darrin Fink http://www.ruf-inc.com/. He told me he could get any cabin I needed built from his supplier for his campers when I was looking at building them. I don't know if he is still in the business, I haven't talked to him in a while.

South Dakota Pheasant update. The bird populations are way down all over the state. I was out for a day each weekend and only got one bird each day ( and not because of my poor shots). We are pretty used to getting our limits. I didn't get out this last weekend because my dog was ripped in...

Thanks, It looks good.

What wheels are these? The only stock steel I've come across are spoked.

Was this your rig? I saw it in Spearfish a few years ago.

This is what I have been looking at using, http://www.kelty.com/p-512-car-tarp.aspx?category=tents-shelters I originally looked at the Kelty carport but this was recommended to use in wind at a lot less expense.

Check out Inno8 trail running shoes. I have just switched to them and really like them. Their sizing seems to be inconsistent so it helps if you can try them on.

A shortie non cabover Alaskan would look right for the period.

No you shouldn't need the turnbuckles. I originally was going to just bolt through the bed but my fuel tank was in the way. You will probably have enough room with the flatbed to get at a bolt. I would like to someday put mine on a flatbed also, but I have a new ride for the old Alaskan and will...

I have had a 8' and a now have a 10'. I really prefer the 10 footer. The extra 2' adds a lot of storage and you won't notice the extra 2'. The only place it may be a problem is short parking spots or it may cause you to pay extra when you get on ferry's.

No, I actually have it tied through the overhang using eyebolts, but have managed to pull out the corners and straighten out the eye bolts ( I probably take the camper into to many places that it wasn't meant to go). I just believe the angle iron on the sides and mounting to the floor won't...

I have the front on cushioned turnbuckles and the back through the floor. I would recommend tying to the camper with an angle iron in the side wall instead of through the overhang. I also cushioned the through the floor bolts with some old rollerblade tires. This allow a little give in the back...

The heaters usually won't work if your battery is around 50%' That way it doesn't ruin your battery.

Check you r battery, If it is too low it won't fire. The fan may still work, but the igniter won't.

Jerry, Pick up some citronella candles. The little tea ones work good. Keep a couple of them burning in the camper and it will minimize if not eliminate the mosquitos Glad your moving again. Brad

I don't know how old your Alaskan is, but they originally were designed to be mounted through the floor. If you are using the lift mounts you will be pulling the back apart so that the door won't close. I put eye bolts in closer to the wall to tie it down with. I also HIGHLY RECOMMEND that you...
