Topic: What Did You Do To Your Class B Today ?

Installed my own version of an overhead drawer (more like a tray) in the cab area. I tried to get dimensions from Roadtrek, but they wouldn't give them to me, meaning I could not confirm if their drawer would fit before I ordered one - so I made my own. It was less expensive, but took a lot longer!!! Had my driver rear tire's slow leak fixed - it turned out to be an 'o' ring on the tire monitor.

senf, that sounds really interesting! Can you post pics or do you have a website or blog?

tontobird - I will take some photos and put them on the DIY forum. I'll post back here when I have finished. I have eight photos recently posted of my sofa-bed modification on the DIY forum.

Took the cover off and drove it to church. Went out to lunch with friends. Came home and put the cover back on. lizzie

Hi - replaced the 12v CRT-type TV that came with it with a 12v 15" flatscreen/dvd player - gained a lot more room in the roll-top cabinet! And more snow in our forecast for tonite...! ST

I will send you the photos by email, but all the explanation is with the photos on the Do It Yourself Modifications (DIY) forum under General Forums. The post was entitled "B Class Bed-Sofa Modification" mid-March of this year, and was done in two sessions. Currently it is on page 3 of 4 of the DIY forum.

tontobird - I have just posted my overhead tray modification on the DIY forum. It started out as a drawer, but I had to cut down the front (RV front) of the drawer to such an extent that I felt it was closer to a tray than a drawer. The most difficult part was following the curved pencil line with a scroll saw, free hand, in the 3/4 inch plywood.

Installed a new house battery with new cable connectors.
I cleaned the battery tray, gave it a fresh coat of rust inhibiting paint, looking good.

I hadn't been able to keep a full charge for over a year - lucky to get half a charge. Now, all four indicator lights are on. [emoticon]
