Prepped it as an escape pod if the coming storm is as big as they say. There is kind of a big **** and lake up valley from us although the 100 yr flood maps in case of dam failure show us to be two blocks outside of the innundation zone

A vent cover that allows it to be always open and shades it from the sun would help you. I'm not sure how much shade it would cast on the solar install.

Yea, those vent covers also allow them to be opened in the rain as well.

Ordered 4 new Happijac jacks for my camper (just the legs). The original ones are starting to bind due to the previous owner did not maintain them well. The new version of Happijac are supposed to be improved with galvanized steal, powder coat paint, etc. They should arrive from Panther RV tomorrow. They were not cheap even with a 10% off sale going on. I will post up pics of the before and after.

Do you mean everything but the motors and brackets? What did they cost?

average cost was $250 per leg: 2 model 4160 and 2 model 4560 (these are the upgrade model numbers). motors are fine, legs not so much. Only 2 were making a lot of noise so I decided to upgrade them all at the same time.

Thanks for the info. That's not as bad as I thought it might be. I have one that screams and I have been deliberating between overhauling it and replacing it.

Many many thanks to Tizi for this great idea. As noted, a tight fit, but now the front wardrobe on our Igloo is a lot more practical. Installed ELFA baskets. Had to assemble them inside the wardrobe because they are a tight fit but the space is now far more practical.
