Yes from what I have seen from drilling in the side near the top there is a hollow square or slightly rectangle steel tube glassed in place. The steel is not very thick from what I remember certainly thinner than the fiberglass sidewall Should be great for backing a pop rivet.
I didn't use the extrusion when I mounted mine, I Just bolted thru the back of the Fiamma case and the side of the flippac with 1/4" bolts and fender washers with some silicone around the holes, I used 4 bolts. The fender washers I had were too big to fit flat in the back of the awning case so...
I have a old XL Thermarest basecamp self inflating
mattress that I use on top of my flippac mattress and I sleep better up there than I do at home! when its time to pack up I open the valves on the thermarest and slip it between the wide side (drivers side) of the poles that hold up the...
I put a pair of 4" or 6" (cant remember) muffin fans in a 20 storage container wired directly to a 15 watt solar panel over 15 years ago and they still are running just fine. They self start in the mourning and shut down in the evening as well as change rpm as the sun comes and goes from cloud...
Check to make sure its not the hard plastic air intake hose where it comes through the engine compartment. It will vibrate like all hell at certain times ( very much like you describe)... Just one little thing to check out before you go nuts trouble shooting. I had a very similar problem and...
Haven't really worked on the weatherstripping yet but for the couple times I have been in the talc like powder for any length of time I just duct taped the window and tailgate shut. Works fine for the day. Wouldn't be so handy if you stop and get in and out of the back several times a day. I...
I saw that trailer and I have to say its pretty sweet, And I only saw the back of it! Going to be really nice. BTW Jeff got the springs on and they are nice without the overloads I am used to abruptly stopping on. Thanks again, Tim
Flippac solar pics
Ok Here are pics of what I did. looking from the front you can see that the panel is sitting on two pieces of 1"x3" rectangle aluminum tube that is bolted through the top. There are 6"X6"aluminum backing plates on the inside under the bed pad and no you dont feel them they...
Interested and I could pick up but I only have Monday off, working the next 5 days but will be going thru upland on Sunday On the way to El Mirage for a SCTA meet. If that works?
OME with the extra leaf for sure! even though the flip is only 300 lb or so, there is so much room you will have a tendency to put more stuff in there just because you have the room to do so. Trust Me!
Make it removable so you can pull it down and track the sun if you are base camped for a couple days, easier and more efficient than a movable roof mount. Plus you can park in the shade and put the panel out in the sun.
After the first night of real wind in my eezi awn Rtt I pulled the rainfly/awning off and only put it on if there was real rain in the forcast. Much quieter that way.
I have been running one of those 85 watt panels with a morningstar 10 amp controller to charge my house battery bank ( two 6 volt golf cart batterys) and it seems to do a very good job at maintaining them. My main load is my Engle fridge which is on 24/7 along with led lights in the flippac...
I tried the temp regulator deal and found the same thing. I have a Tacoma that also has a constant circulating system and after dealing with temp fluctuations at the shower head I just made it simple. I draw out of a 5 gallon can and open the shower head stick it in the can and recirculate for...
