Re: The Journey Visvi 1999 Thomas MVP ER

I use pink foam for shipping glass all over North America, it is rigid and provides really good support. I use a router bit on my Dremel to cut out an exact fit for each item... but that's not what...

Re: The Journey Visvi 1999 Thomas MVP ER

Just weld the lower rungs right to the door. You probably need to reinforce the door with some thing.....maybe that square tubing you got that didn't work for the roof raise?

I know the exterior...

Re: The Journey Visvi 1999 Thomas MVP ER

For class B CDL yes.... but for MOTORHOMES over 26k lbs you need a class B endorsement on your normal driver's license. This includes all those fools with S&S big RV's. It is nothing to do with...

Re: The Journey Visvi 1999 Thomas MVP ER

Re: The Journey Visvi 1999 Thomas MVP ER

I made a sign for mine that said "just purchased, tag applied for"

Re: The Journey Visvi 1999 Thomas MVP ER
