Re: Folded trailer seals
Reading my post again, I guess it wasn't that clear.? By "front roof edge" I meant the front roof panel, where the metal edge on the side of the front roof contacts the side wall of the camper.?

Re: Folded trailer seals

Jeff, if the fridge vent fan is the original from Dometic it will always be noisy and it draws 1/2 an amp which really adds up when using your battery.? Most people replace that with a computer case

Re: 7 plug to 4 plug electrical connections
Even with a brake controller a 4 to 7 pin adaptor will never activate brakes if you have them on your trailer. You must have a 7 to 7 with a brake controller to activate brakes. Steve

Re: Maiden Voyage
Hi Gang: I've forgotten the low drain outlet, below the floor at the edge. I moved the outlet to above the wheel well through the wall. It looks like a hose bib, so I screw a "grey" hose that connects

Re: 7 plug to 4 plug electrical connections
I think you misunderstood, you seemed to be mistaken - per the original post, the trailer does not have brakes installed. So having a 7 way or controller isn't going to do anything. Not all states

Re: Maiden Voyage
Hi Jeff, I agree with Carl, regarding the fan. Also, about Grey water from your sink. Showering/shampoo outside definitely requires biodegradable soap products, just like using the lake or a stream.
