Hi everyone. This is my first post, been lurking for a while during my search for a nice used
4 Wheel Camper. I found a very clean, albeit a bit bare, ‘96 Grandby that I placed a deposit on today. I need to remove an existing shell from my truck, and add the camper mounts in the bed.
I should have the mounts on by the weekend and will pick up the camper early next week. In the meantime, it’s missing two “must have” items. A screen door, and a heater. I already own a
small “Mr. Heater” I use in the cockpit of my boat, that I assume will be more then adequate
for the time being. I bought the camper for an upcoming trip to Alaska and don’t want to be carried away by the mosquitos once I arrive, so the need for a screen door. My big question is what’s involved in adding the screen door?? Quickly looking at the door & frame, it appears the
entire door/ frame assembly needs to be replaced with one including the screen. Is this the case, and if so is it an easy swap, or does it need to go to Woodland (which is close as I live in Sacramento) for a factory replacement?? Thanks for any assistance.
I know this group likes pictures, so here’s the truck as it sits today. When the Grandby is on next
week, I’ll post new pictures. I’m looking forward to participating in this group and hope eventually to be able to offer some advice and help myself.
