Karen and I have decided to sell our 2009 Sundance 2900MK and 2008 F250 King Ranch diesel and will be listing both as a "ready to hit the road" package sometime later in February or early March. We were lucky to buy it here on the Forum from Eric and Dorothy and hope we can find a buyer here to...

Jim- thanks. worked perfectly. Good thing they made the doors strong so no damage there. Hinges were easy to bend back into shape and repair was EZ and sound.

So you can still buy matches :). Thanks to all. Makes sense, and as always, the simple is always the best solution.

Stormy day so when we left we pull in the slides. When we returned the kitchen slide caught a cabinet door and pulled it off the frame. Hinges still attached to door but screws pulled out of frame. Repair advice? I assume I'll need to me hinges slightly on frame and redrill Can't see how...

Good info, but in this case I'll be replacing steel with stainless so hopefully the breakage will be less of an issue.

John - were you suggesting wood screws for the exterior walls (from outside or inside) or were you thinking about interior walls? Randy

Here's a picture that will help understand the initial work I'll be doing on the outside of the coach. My rubber roof is fine but I'm concerned about the drip rail assembly that fits over the end of the rubber roof as it laps over the side of the roof. You'll note that the screw shown holds...

I'm looking at McMaster-Carr to find the screw types we've been talking about. 1. It appears that the "square drive" is a sheet metal screw as I don't see this drive type in wood, plastic or drywall? 2. It appears these square drive screws for sheet metal are pan head only? 3. There seem to...

Bob and John - Now we're getting somewhere. Staying with the general condition solutions: For mounting to the outside of the outside all: A self-tapping screw (like what I see mounting most everything on the outside from the factory) would generally be OK up to, say a couple of pounds...

I think what I'm asking, and what I know a lot of other owners will benefit from is a general understanding of the typical exterior and interior wall construction methods, i.e., material and thickness and spacing of studs. With a general understanding of typical wall "sections" the type of...

Outside: If I want to fasten something to the outside of my coach what is the screw diameter and length that can be safely used? Should I be looking for a stud in the exterior wall or is there some type of expanding screw/anchor? Weight wouldn't be a big factor, e.g., rail for removable...

I'm going to be pulling the drip rail install Eternabond where the top meets the rip rail as well as reseat the screws on the awning rail with double sided Eternabond. I want to replace the original screws with stainless and have heard they are available with the standard "square" RV screw head...

Blew fuse overextending front Venture brand front landing gear on our 2009 Sundance. After replacing the fuse holder which had fried when the fuse blew I tested the landing gear. Testing the landing gear I immediately noticed a new problem. The landing gear motor attaches to the top of the...

So the only fuse holders I could find in town were at West Marine and are rated for 30 amp fuse, BUT use #12 wire. I can't tell for sure but what's on the rig looks bigger (#10 or #8?). I did find #10 fuse holders on Amazon and will just have to wait a few days and use the #10. Anyone know...
