Re: I finally am an owner

I need to do that. I replaced the AC unit today along with the bathroom faucet - trying to get ready for the season. Tomorrow is the day to flush the plumber and tanks...

Re: Interior light covers - 1970 Ultra

It turns out that I swapped one of my overhead lights to an LCD which gave me two more covers to use. I now have one to spare.

Thanks for the offer.

Re: Dometic RM761 fridge - issues??

Agreed.... and while the fridge is in good shape the styling looks like it was made in 1969... which it was! I am going to try to keep it all as stock as I can - that is part of the beauty of this trailer I think...

Re: Dometic RM761 fridge - issues??

I had our friendly, local RV tech come by yesterday and he pointed out that the coil is gone... and the best path is to replace it and associated parts. While not cheap, it is cheaper than new and we will know that our 50 year old fridge will live to cool another day....

Question on front fitting

One more questions - working my way through my 1970 26... can you tell?? Below is a picture of a "fitting" on the front of the trailer near the LP tanks. It has a B on it..... although not much else. In the manual it does say that you can fill the water tank through a "fitting on the ...

Dometic RM761 fridge - issues??

I have a Dometic RM761 in my 1970 Ultra 26. When I bought it, it only worked on gas, no electric. I worked on it a bit today and tried to figure out what had been done to it before (somebody has been re-wiring). In the photo below I found two wires which are not connected (black one and green/yellow...

Re: A salute to LEDs

Well, it sounds funny although the bulbs in front (amber lenses) appear amber. Ones in back (red lenses) appear... well, red. The package of marker bulbs I bought has 12 bulbs in it - and the trailer needs 14 total. Thus, I ended up keeping two of the older bulbs in the front markers. If you look cl...

A salute to LEDs

I have been working over the last week to update my "newused" 1970 Ultra. A big item on my list: update all of the light bulbs with LEDs.... what a huge difference. The pics are the outside of the trailer now - quite a difference. I still have the original Deitz lights on the back and... a...

Re: Interior light covers - 1970 Ultra

I was also pointed towards these as replacements: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01L8CW8Q2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I have one fixture that is having issues. My thought is to salvage the covers from it and then replace it with one of these from Amazon. Won't be perfec...
