Hi there, I'm new to this site and just saw the notes on opening the upper door when top down. That was useful & easier on an older version. Now on my 2003 the lock set is different. I could not see the picture included in the post from "thisoldcamper" in July 2015. I'd sure like to learn about the "new solution"
How to open upper door from inside when lowered?

Yes, I see the picture now and it shows the door latch I had on previous camper and mine had the extension rod to open from inside when top down.
I'll have to look for an older latch if I want to do that on my 2003 Alaskn.
Thanks for the picture

I have a piece of parachute cord tied to the handle and looped through the pull on my ‘74.
It is useful for closing the top door. I can pull the cord and unlatch the handle from the wind catch on the back wall.
I test pulled vertically a number of times with the top up. I got looking I might need to add a top pull for closing the top door in top down mode.
