    Recognition & Fund for "Harvey Rescue/Support" SS Members

    I totally agree with your assesment papabear: "I don't think the folks were looking for rewards or reimbursement (or recognition), rather they just wanted to help any way they can/could. I'll certainly participate if a willing member gets the ball rolling. "

    Recognition & Fund for "Harvey Rescue/Support" SS Members

    S-280 Shelter Built ( actually AN/GRM-86X ) with M720 Dolly as a Travel Trailer

    Be sure to set up some kind of ventilation that is rodent proof to take care of condensate build up on the interior. These shelters will sweat and you will end up with a lot of water in the bottom if left for prolonged periods. If you have a floor drain make sure you rodent proof it.

    TOWING A M720 mobilizer is it me or ?

    Note: Do NOT use the M720 with a shelter loaded going thru California. Some idiots overloaded a shelter and it came apart on the freeway and they now prohibit them on California highways. Luckily I found out before I tried to move my S-280. I used local roads and stayed away from the freeway...

    Wiper motor overheating?

    I guess I missed that. If the old wiper motors work good then you don't need to do that test. Take the new motors back and get your money back.

    Wiper motor overheating?

    Fid you run a test jumper from the battery to the wiper motor and let it run? The idea being to eliminate everything associated with the trucks wiring. Just the positive and negative from the 12 volt battery. Make sure that is the only thing connected to the battery and the other battery is...
