Airstream Basecamp Sewer Hose Storage Fix
Просмотров 165Месяц назад
The sewer hose storage tube on the Basecamp is poorly designed. Once it accumulates some road grime, closing the cap properly becomes nearly impossible. The solution is to cut off the old cap receiver and replace it with a better-designed one. However, Airstream doesn't make this process easy. You will need to be patient and likely install a backing plate to complete the repair successfully. Le...

Looking at a 20x, 2022, what should I look for? Most problematic issues?
@@toolonthehill Thanks for watching, the most common issues are a leaky back door seal, the water heater not heating the water. The best advice I can give you is to test everything. Make the sellers show you how it works works and actually experience it.
@@StreamDreamin thanks going soon to do a walk through. Thanks for the help!
Simple improvement I would not have thought about. Thanks!
Happy to help!
Where is the Fuze for the jack? The fuse between the jack and the battery?
In my case I put it close to the battery. If you look closely at about 7:00-8:15 on the video you'll see the black tube on the red wire. That's the fuse holder. You could also splice it in closer to the jack if you prefer. I chose to put it in the battery compartment to keep it out of the weather. That's just personal preference. Thanks for the question and for watching. There's a lot more to come.
You tell a story well
@@joeys7519 Thanks! Stay tuned because there’s a lot more to come.

Thanks! I appreciate that.
This is an unrelated question but I was wondering what block (red/white) you have under the front jack…and if you’re happy with it? I have to park on a slight decline and am always looking for better solutions. Thanks!
It’s from Andersen hitches and yes, I’m happy with it. I bought their Ez bag. I think their stuff is fantastic. It comes with a leveling wedge, two chalks, four stabilizer pads, and a stop pad plus the 8” jack block.
@@StreamDreamin thanks so much! Ps. I really like the style of your videos. The voiceover is clear and descriptive. Very much appreciated!
Thanks for showing different options. It is obvious you have considered factors I may have missed.
Glad it was helpful!
Really slick finisihed look to the install. Pretty creative!

Thanks!
Can you provide a link to the red tape you used?
Fantastic video, process and videography!!! Thanks for posting.
Thanks Travis!
Why not just use rivnuts?
Thanks for the question. It might work, but the belly pan is quite thin, and there's a risk they might get torn out. Airstream did use backing plates, but they weren't secured to the belly pan, so I couldn't reuse them. For me, the decision to add a new and more durable backing plate stemmed from Airstream having used them initially. I'm also concerned that any fastener I use without a backing plate wouldn't withstand the vibration, bouncing, and wind the trailer experiences at speed and off-road.
@@StreamDreamin Mine is a long answer, butI do not believe rivnuts would work well in this application. They are used all the time in aircraft apllication (I ran an FAA aircraft repair station) but most commonly for fairings and inspection plates whick have most of the force parallel to the aluminum skin. In the sewer hose application the force is primarily perpendicular to the aluminum skin where there is greater risk of tear-out. Probably why Airstream used backing plates, they have been perfecting aluminum bodies for 90 years.
Thanks and thanks for subscribing. The best is yet to come.

Thanks Rich--there's more to come!
Great instructions. Very simple and clear!
