Let me add my voice to the chorus of thank yous you have received. I was dreading this operation but you made it clear how to repair the system. We were thinking of selling our camper since I imagined it was a huge job to repair but you showed it is a piece of cake! Good photography, editing and best of all, no annoying music. Two thumbs up, 5 stars and a bunch of "addaboys". TYVM. John in Ohio.
Thank you so much for the kind words and for watching. glad the video helped
That my friend was extremely extremely helpful. I just purchased my 2003 Jayco Qwest yesterday and upon purchasing it from the buyer who was just looking to get rid of it for $400 he tried to raise it up and the cable snapped on him so now I have the task of doing exactly what you did and you made it seem so very simple for a DIY ER like myself. Thanks so much
How did it go?
One possible improvement: I taped an end of a 2mm paracord to the end of the steel cable (about 17:15 into the video). When I pulled the cable, I pulled the cord and then taped it to the new cable. That way it was super easy to thread it through the pipe.
This was super helpful, however, like at least one other Commenter, the top & bottom tube description in your video was opposite for me. I have a 2007 StarCraft. Based on the ‘2660 Series Crank-Up Lift System’ one-page instructions from Goshen, the end of the cable goes into the top tube and the top set of pusher springs get pushed towards the rear pulley (operating the back lift). The cable then heads around the pulley & into the lower tube towards the winch and pushes the bottom set of pusher springs towards the front (operating the front lift).
Im so grateful you made this video. Saved me hundreds to have to pay someone to do the work and countless hours of frustration. Worked first try! My system was upside down from yours, bottom tube was for the front. But otherwise all was exactly the same
Thank you for watching and the kind words
Thank you for this video, well made and to the point. Got my cable from Goshen this winter, and am now heading to the driveway to do the swap. Im quite sure you just saved me a lot of Ostie de câlisse de tabarnak that would inevitably be involved in figuring it out by myself.
Je suis très content que vous avez trouvé mon vidéo utile
Meilleur video ever , et best comment too 😂😂
PS You also removed the mystery of how this system works. Thanks
Just bought our 2010 popup camper and last weekend the cable broke. Perfect explanation and demonstration of how to replace it. Thank you!
Great video. A real positive impact to the web. One note. I have a 2008 Rockwell and the tubes are the opposite way. The larger tube is on top for the rear springs and the bottom tube is for the small. Had to unbolt the front screws holding the springs into the sidewall and loosen all the screws at the front of the tube so I could get a small screwdriver in there to get the cable through the front housing. Took an hour plus and I know have to hook up to the winch to see if it works. If it doesn't it's landfill.
Of another note. I'm in Vancouver BC Canada an NO ONE will fix tent trailers.
UPDATE: The cable replacement works. Next up replace winch and motor. Thanks John for this amazing video
I am in agreement with other comments, best description of the replacement I have found and so glad I found it. I've had a replacement cable for 2 years now but was unsure about doing this job even with the instructions from Goshen. My cable has been bolted together for 2 years but looks very frayed this season and I know the cable replacement has to be done. I just pulled the trailer out on the weekend and was getting my head around the replacement. Pretty sure with your help I will be successful, thanks so much for taking time to video, post and repeat many clarifications!!
I've seen several videos on how to replace this cable. But this is the most detailed video I have seen. Very good! I have a 2003 Viking with the Goshen system. My cable has not broken or even looks worn, but I want to replace it just to be on the safe side. I got the new cable from Goshen several months ago and I carry it with the necessary tools to replace it in the field should the need arise. You made it look so easy that I think I'll just go ahead and do it now before the camping season begins. The only concern for me is the upper and lower stop switch on my winch. It looked like you have a manual winch, but mine is electric and has stop or limit switches. They must be taken into consideration when attaching the new cable to the spool. I think what you have to do is run the winch in the down position until it hits the stop switch. Then attach the cable by first making three wraps around the winch take-up spool before anchoring it to the anchor clip on the side. I have not done this yet, but I'm pretty sure that's what the directions say to do. I'm 73 years old, but your video has given me the courage to get under there and do mine very soon. Also, don't forget to use plenty of grease on the cable and springs before installation.
THANK YOU SO MUCH for this video! After watching it, I'm sure I can dive into replacing the lift cable that was fraying. The instructions from the manufacturer was... enigmatic, and didn't spark any confidence in completing it easily. Your video made a ton of sense.
Okay, you saved my life. Well, nearly. This video is exactly what I needed. I got a 1997 Rockwood with the cable broken for a great deal. Ordered the parts from Goshen ($61 for cable, pulley, and shipping), and then found your video. Perfect! Took me about 2 hours. The hardest part was getting the cable clamped on the winch. What a pain! The only part that tricked me a little is that my front and rear springs are opposite; smaller hole on top and bigger on bottom. Thank you!
Artwolf80, glad u mentioned that Rockwood is opposite because I’m going to do this to mine which is a ‘99. Great video though for sure!
Thank You Thank You Thank You. I had the cable break on my 2000 Flagstaff and this video was my resource guide to replacing it. In the process I replaced the front and rear springs and master tube. Just an FYI for those in the USA, I ordered directly from Goshen and saved 25 to 40 percent on each piece opposed from buying from a distributor.
Thank you again for making this video and helping this process be almost impossible to screw up.
I'm replacing the winch, 4 springs, cable and pulley tomorrow and this video is extremely helpful. Very thorough. I appreciate it very much, thank you sir!
Thank you!!!!! I am in Canada and and have spent hours watching videos to try and find something that looks similiar to the fix needed for a cable repair on my 2003 Bonair camper. Mine is a side crank but overall the same steps required. This was extremely helpful!
Quebec here! Happy my video helped you out
John, We wanted to say THANK YOU so much for your video as it gave us the courage to open our system to take a look at what might be happening as our left rear lift was not lowering. Come to find out the spring was fine, but in the revamp we put a screw through the post stopping one of the tubes from lowering. Your video was the key to our fix. Thanks!
Thank you so much for watching and your kind words
When winterizing my 2016 Viking pop up, i saw that the lift cable was frayed. Spent a lot of time worrying about what kind of job this was going to be. Worried no more as you showed how it all works and how easy to replace! Thanks for the great video!!
I bought a 1994 Palamino Stallion pop up camper. Brought it home to show my family, and it broke. Just like yours it broke at the winch. I went to our local camper dealer. He drew great pictures on how it went together, but not the stops (I love pictures and videos).
He assured me I could do it.
He also told me, if he did it, it would be about $80 for the cable and about $300 labor.
I will do this myself.
THANK YOU!
Norma Stout Morgan what is the size of the cable 1/8 3/16 or 1/4 3/16
Watching this a few times, I now feel confident I can do this myself and save myself $300. Thank you Sir for being so explanative.
Appreciate this video so much!! It saved our camping trip last weekend. Snapped the cable during the week and because of this video I was up and running before the weekend. Made my own cable for less then $40 and it took a couple hours. Thank you!!!!
Such an EXCELLENT video. Precise details throughout. I was not contemplating ever having to replace a cable but this video has eased my mind ever I need too. Thank you for your time making this video. It helps immensely!
Thank you so much for this video!!! I was gifted a '91 palomino sxl a few months ago. I went out to set her up this morning and about thirty seconds after I got it raised I heard a loud pop and a crash. I ran out of the garage and the top had fallen. Thank goodness nobody was inside. The cable had snapped. After some looking around I stumbled upon this video. Thank you so much!!! After watching this I ran to the Lowe's home improvement store for parts. About two hours and $12 later she is good to go!!!
I know it has been a while since this comment but I wanted to suggest looking into the safety supports. I too have a 91 Palomino (yearling) and it came from the factory with them. They are easy to find on the pop up parts online stores if you don't have them already.
Starcraft 2106 uses the identical Goshen system. Two years ago, my winch went out, so I ordered a new one from Goshen. My camper is a 2008 and I was unsure if the cable had ever been changed. I have heard of cables busting at campgrounds leaving people stranded and at the mercy of the nearest dealer, so I decided to order a new cable and put it on the same time I put on the winch. This was a very confusing job for me. First, I was alone w/o help. Second, the temp was 90' and high humidity which meant to asphalt was super-hot. Laying on a moving blanket did help! Thirdly, laying on the ground and looking up and trying to figure out how those giant springs did their job was mind boggling. Had I not watched this video, the camper may have gone to the scrap yard! I did get it done and even went camping that night.
This Goshen system is really pretty simple, especially when compared to some other pop ups that have gears, pullies, eye bolts as well as being laced through the inside of the camper. Imagine having to open and or take out cabinets inside the camper to fix it! Something to think about for new campers trying to pick a brand.
Bravo Zulu to you Mr. DIY Maniac. This was a great video, very well done and thorough. It made my day on that hot asphalt so much easier. Thank you very much.
Thank you so much
Thanks so much for the very clear and well done video! I called 3 different places and no one was interested in even touching it. I was thinking it was time to get rid of my old camper, but you have saved it and me a bunch of time and money. Thanks SO much for this!!!!!!!
Thank you for the kind words and for watching my video
GREAT VIDEO! Just bought a used pop up for daughter that we’re refurbishing and I know nothing about pop ups so the detail provided in this video was awesome for me. Thanks, great job!
Very good video. Did our 2000 dutchmen in 2 1/2 hours. And went up level first try. Thanks
is that all the time it took? Really want to replace my cable but, of course, now that it is summer I have lots of weekend trips planned. I was thinking I could do it in a day...glad to see that it may be possible!
Great video. Never had any idea how any cable system even worked and after watching your video twice I went to Menards and grabbed a cable and did it myself in about a half an hr
That is amazing
I used this for my 2004 Rockwood Camper and this was an awesome, informative guide. There were a couple tiny differences, the largest of which was that the rig is "upside down" on the 2004 Rockwood. The lead wire returning to the crank, and the forward "push springs" are along the bottom channel instead of the top. Thanks!
Michael Gasink what was the size of the cable you used 1/8 3/16 or 1/4 3/16
Ditto
Thank you. Great video! When my cable broke I thought that it was going to be expensive. Found your video and was very relieved that I could do it myself.
Thank you so much for watching
HUGE thank you for this video! Helped repair my 1993 Skamper 17c. The only difference was that the "main tube" is upside down compared to yours. Taking apart was cake, took me longer to jack it up and secure it than pulling it apart did! The hardest part was finding a local place that sold stainless steel wire rope sleeves. Had to travel an hour to pick them up, couldn't believe it! Checked 10 local stores and all they had was aluminum ones which should NOT be used. Also, measure your cable first and go to Home Depot and have them cut the custom length vs buying it pre-packaged. Mine was $8 vs $20 buy doing that....though I first bought the pre-packaged and couldn't make a clean cut at first, so I have plenty of cable now, haha. Additional tip for others.... don't buy the "cable cutters" from Habor Freight, they aren't made for wire rope won't cut cleanly, which is needed to pass through the sleeve. Home Depot sells small handled wire rope cutters in the wire rope aisle that makes a clean cut. Besides tracking down all the parts and tools, the worst part was securing it to the crank system because mine is INSIDE the camper so I had to crawl in and wedge myself inside cabinets to get to it....not comfy.
Hey Dustin, is your trailer an 8ft box, the smallest trailer? Crank was inside and the handle is at the side and not the front?
Thanks
Darrell
darrell mah that’s correct, yes
@@thepanicstudio if you have any info that you want to pass along feel free. ie. Which online sites are good for parts or any pics of your trailer would be great if you want to share. Thanks
darrellwmah@gmail.com
@@darrellmah2944 Yes, exactly that.
Wonderful!! Thank you so much!! After watching your video, I completely understand how my Goshen system works. Also, for the first time, I feel like I can competently maintain it and in the future, repair it. Thank you so much!!!
Thank you for your kind words
Super helpful video! I was able to perform this repair at the campground with the roof raised (and supported) as the cable snapped after I had the fail-safe brackets in place. However my top/bottom channels we opposite yours for front/back operation so pay attention to that for anyone making this repair. Thank you so much for the video!
Working in a palomino 10B tenty and everything was shredded underneath. This saved my ass. Thanks for taking the time to do this!
Thank you for watching
We just bought a 99 Rockwood Freedom and after 2 months of trying to figure out why we were having some much trouble raising the roof - my brother watched this video and immediately knew how to fix the problem!!! Now its fixed and ready for camping!!!
What did he do? Your cable wasnt broken so what did he fix?
Amazing video, it totally made my cable replacement easy. Thanks for posting.👍
This was such a helpful video. My 93 Viking cable snapped last year and I put it off. Decided to take a stab at it, but RUclips first and found this gem. Thank you for the guidance!
Thank you for watching and I am glad it helped you
You did an awesome job on explaining and videoing the lift system in general and it’s repair. Thank you very much for your efforts.
Awesome video! I didn't have a clue what to do and now I understand how the system works and can see that it isn't that difficult. Thanks man!
THANK YOU for this video!!! I am also in Canada and although my cable has not snapped, it is rusted and frayed so literally only a matter of time so the cable is being replaced this year!
Great video and thank you so much. BTW, my dealer has refused to repair the broken cable on my Rockwood (2018) camper and so has every other service center in SoCal. My only option is to do it myself and the only resource is this video from you my friend. Thank you again. Priceless.
Thank you so much for your kind words
@@DIYManiacJohnP I just did it. It took me less then an hour to do this and I am not a great mechanic by any measure. I am so disappointed by Forest River for not providing these instructions, when their service centers won't even try to fix this. Anyway, you saved the day for me
I called camping world and asked how much to replace the cable. They told me 700-1500$ . Yeah no thanks luckily this design has a manageable cable system not the gear box that fails in others. Good video.
Great video! This is the first video that I have found that was explained in such a simple way! Thank you!!
Thank you for making this video! Very helpful. I just had to do this project on the road to save our camping trip and your video was instrumental.
Excellent video. Thanks for the detailed explanation. I was anxiously waiting for that aha moment when I got to understand how the system works. So simple yet hard to visualize without seeing it.
This is amazing, thanks! I was bummed to see my main cable starting to fray right at the start of camping season. I have a very clear idea of what’s involved if I decide to do this myself. Seems doable, once I get/make the proper cable, if I do decide to do it myself. Thanks for the very clear step by step process.
Thanks for the video! State Park staff saved my bacon by giving me a cable clamp, but that's temporary at best. This gives me the confidence to do the repair myself.
I really loved your "how to" video!!! I recently bought me a 7'x12' Rockwood pop-up camper (1996) with a broken cable. I really want to repair it myself. Anyhow, your video is by far the best I've seen. Great explanation and I loved how you handled the camera - other videos made me dizzy because the camera was moving too much. Although still nervous, you have inspired me to tackle this project on my own. Hopefully I'll come back and post my experience once I replace the broken lift cable. Greetings from Los Angeles, California 👍
Red Pill Wisdom wow thank you so much for your kind words. So happy my videos are helping others
Seriously, you have no idea how valuable your video is. I'm a divorced dad on a budget and this camper will bring me and my kids lots of fun memories once I fix this cable issue. If I can fix it myself, I can use whatever I would save on other camping gear for me and my kids. Again, thank you so much!
Hey John, I just got response from a mobile repair guy to fix my main cable for my pop-up. He's charging me $600 for the job, including "materials and labor". I could save me $600 if I can do this myself for my 1996 Rockwood pop-up 🤔
Red Pill Wisdom $600?!?!?!?!?!?!?! That is crazy. Definitely do it yourself
@@DIYManiacJohnP hey there how long was your cable just to know!? :) many thanks for the tut! It is well appreciated
Great video, I had no idea how the system worked until watching your video, thanks much, well done.
SteveK
Thanks for this video! I just swapped my cable. Took 2 hours and I got grease everywhere on me but it was easy. Ordered cable direct and it was way cheaper. Thanks!!!
Thanks for such an informative and fun experience. I wouldnt be who I am today without this. DIY maniac my hero
Wow thanks a million been searching forever and couldn't figure this out. You explained it all perfectly.
Used this video today. Extremely helpful and made my project go smoothly.
Thank you for this! We were in the middle of replacing our 95 Dutchman duck cable, but having difficulty trying to follow the directions Goshlin provided. If it wasn’t for this video we would have failed! It was very helpful!
Great video! I watched a few others before this one and they were very confusing. This video made it simple.
Thank you! After watching this I changed my cable in an hour!
For those looking into this, I just finished it on a 1993 Palomino yearling and the main bar underneath was upside down from this video, so everything he did on top had to be done on the bottom and vice versa. I t was driving me nuts until I realized this.....I was not paying attention when I took it apart so it is totally my fault,but still, heads up to anyone else about to do it......the top and bottom may not be the same as this guy's.
jmh9932 thanks for this info!!!
Followed all the instructions to realize that my Viking Epic 08 has the front springs mounted on the bottom so I had to feed my cable in the bottom section and finish installing with the top. Also, I highly recommend just dislodging the front springs so you can feed the cable through (no need to unscrew the side brackets) otherwise you may spend your entire day trying to feed your cable through!
Super helpful video. I just replaced my Goshen cable with the help of this Vid. Thanks !!!!!!!!!!
You are awesome, I have this same skamper and I'm worried about the cable snapping just due it's age. This video makes me confident that I'll be able to fix it if it does😎👍
Thank you for a perfect dent.. very much appreciated!
Thank You ! Saved me lots of time ! Make more "Camper" videos !
Sadly… I sold my camper.
Most informative video I've ever seen! Thanks so much for saving me tons of money.
This is by far the best video on youtube.. Thank you!
Great video sir. I'm getting ready to buy a popup with a broken cable
just now watched the video very helpful thanks for posting
Thanks fella you just save me a ton of money I was trying to figure out how in the good Jesus world this cable is replaced with out spending a fortune
Perfect tutorial video. I just wish I saw it 2 weeks earlier.
Thank you for the informative video. I am going to replace the steel cable in a Forest River now. They wanted to charge my unsuspecting daughter $900.00 dollars for a cable replacement. Imagine that.
Super video,I'm doing it tomorrow on my '16 Rockwood. I'll post how long it takes me.
very informative.I'm doing this very thing soon.However I did have trouble hearing you at times
Extremely Helpful. I just bought the exact same camper
Fantastic. Like to see videos of person who knows what and how to explain. Great job!! Not looking forward to doing. Question? Mine is a little hard to crank even after grease. Why?
Thanks so much. Is your cable spooling nicely as you crank or is it getting bound on the spool?
Thank you so much for this detailed video. It’s exactly what I needed!!
Thank you replacing mine now very informative
Thank you for watching and for the kind words
Bro..... THANK YOU. This video you made saved my day and our new to us camper.
I don't believe the 98 Coleman pop-up my family had while I was growing up had this system. I can vividly remember the cables went up each of the telescoping posts and were anchored just below the roof.
Excellent video John...well done...all the info we needed to repair ours...your the man :-)
Awesome. Thank you. I just did this myself. $25 for the cable & stops at Home Hardware!
Doug Dunbar what is the size for the cable like 1/8 3/16 or something different
You wouldn't happen to know what the measurements are for the stoppers from the top to the one in the Middle with you
Great video, professional and well explained. Keep up the good work! Any ideas on preserving the pop up floor from the elements. Cheers
Thanks so much!! I would think an automotive undercoating would work well for protecting the floor
new Goshen cable is now $43 usd, made to order in 2023
Thank you for this video. It saved me
A lot of time and money.
just finished the job. easy peasy.
Great video. Now I’m eager to try it myself
Thanks for posting this. It was really helpful to see how the lift system works. Pretty sure it's the Goshen 1473 lift. They are still making the cables as I just asked them via email. I know the main tube has grease fittings, but should we be greasing the entire cable, and what about the cable that wraps around the crank, should we grease that to protect it from elements?
This video is very helpful. I start mine tomorrow.
Thank you very much man .that was a lot of help for me . Thanks
Part of me wants to grease all this thoroughly. There must be a lot of friction where the push springs go around the bends in the tubes. On the other hand, grease might just attract dirt.
Kevin Martin agreed, grease on the springs would only lead to possible issues.
I was soo confused about replacing my main cable also! This video gave me the understanding of how this all works now but now my problem is the front end of the camper is up with the broken cable,
Do you know if I will have to drop the front springs too? Or would it all work out and drop after I replaced my broken main cable? Any input would help! Thank you soo much this is the best and only video that helped me.
In this goshen system is the main cable the only one to be concerned about?
Thanks, saved me a small fortune
Very well done...i only would like to know how.long the cable was you bought....thanks
thanks , very good explanation
Thank you for watching
I need to do this and find two new tires for mine. Y7B5 U12. Having a hard time finding a match. They don’t display the normal tire size on none of the three
will zinsavage I would suggest taking them to a tire place as they would be best suited to know exactly what you need
Thanks a ton, this was great, how many feet/meters of cable did you have to buy for that.
Amazing how-to video. Very informative and great Canadian perspective. How did you crimp the aluminum sleeve? A swaging tool or just a hammer and screwdriver or something?
Paul White thanks!! Large vice was used.
Extremely helpful! Thank you!
Thanks mannn you save my week-end 😘
❤️
My lift spring is stuck in the lift tube. I cannot get it to come out
Thank you for the video. What do I do if half of it is stuck open and I need to put those Springs in
Very useful video explaining everything. Volume a bit low
Grate video 👌 definitely helped me out thank you so much 💯
