Wow, I just looked back in this thread to page 8, post 76 where I posted my photo chops of your roof raise.

Who ever edited my posts like that almost ruined your thread. Some of the posts are hard to understand because of the editing.

All of this took place back when I was wrongfully banned. In the days that followed after, over 700 of my posts were deleted. Others edited, removing my name.

All the pics I hosted are still safely working.

Actually Nat I think most of the deleted pics are my fault, I deleted some to make room for others at the time because it was saying my allotment was used up.

Yesterday I relocated my chassis batteries, I removed them from the left side area to free up the storage area into the right side engine compartment, I'm going to replace the two batteries with one AGM, while relocating I was able to remove 14ft of 4/0 cable & 6ft of 2/0 cable

How do you keep all the paper from flying off when you drive down the road?

Great find!! Make sure it it properly secured. I have heard stories about awnings fully closed up that get ripped off the side of RVs due to high winds and gusts.

Congrats...What a deal! --- I'm on the hunt for one myself, but finding a decent one in the short 8" length I need is tough.

Watched a couple youtube video's , I think where they made their mistake was NOT putting in screws at each end of the channel

Decided yesterday to take the day off from other projects & worked on the bus, Relocated my fuel tank rearward 40 inches so I have room to mount a waste tank in front of it between the frame rails.
