    Yes, that interior is so 25 years ago.. blue carpet and all "but", its in such good shape. Take it from an old guy..dont change it.. restore it. You or potential buyer will appreciate its originality 10 years from now.

    Check subfloor for soft spots and or water damage around fridge, and under fresh wate tank areas. That’s where I found the water damage on our 1998 Concourse. Carpet looked new but wood subfloor was rotten underneath it.

  • @Miner-49

    We absolutely love our Chinook. You will love yours also. They are extremely reliable, with proper maintenance of coarse. Helpful hints..replace the microwave with a combo convection oven, to help keep water contained, wash your hair over the sink. If the passenger seat doesn’t swivel, get a swivel. Install a diesel heater. Happy travels.

    Don't put a composting toilet in. It is not expensive to dump! Camp once a month at a campground and dump then. Save the money for the newer a/c and replace the vent fans with a max air with a cover! You can drive down the road with the vent open and get great air flow. The generator is great you will really like it. Great find

  • @jonthebru
    @jonthebru 4 дня назад +10

    Regarding the chassis battery. A LiFePO4 battery charges differently than the older technologies so you may need a new converter/charger and also a DC to DC converter for the engine alternator path. Neither of those are very expensive, consult someone who can provide the right advice. LiFePO4 batteries charge at a higher current, in 1999 that wasn't a consideration. Whatever you paid, you scored a good one, the fact that you could just replace the tires and drive it back to Eugene shows how good the engine and transmission are.

    • @shaunmc1910
      @shaunmc1910 4 дня назад +1

      Just get better replacement lead acid and consider a power station / “solar generator” if the current generator doesn’t work. You can get a Pecron E3600LPF which has a true 3600 w output even (30amp) plug. The generator is likely hard wired to a sub panel and then to the transfer switch. If you attach an 30 amp plug to the sub panel if would plug into the Pecron. Then use that for adding lithium etc. this powers the main panel. If you plug in the transfer switch activates. If it goes below temp you still have acid house batteries (emergency). But if something like the Pecron running as the “generator” it would act like the generator is running all the time. You can get alternator charger still for it. You can charge from solar and at $1300 right now. Hard to beat for something that has 3600w. Bet a generator on that model was something like the onan micro 2800.

  • @missingremote4388
    @missingremote4388 3 дня назад +1

    The generator normally can fix w/new parts. There is an actual spring in the starter that gets stuck or something. 'BENDIX SPRING' easy to remove whole generator unit from van. And put back in thanks!

    Ich finde es großartig, wie viel Sie über ihr Fahrzeug berichten können, das bekommt mancher Kerl nicht so strukturiert auf die Reihe. Ich war auch beeindruckt davon, wie luxuriös und fortschrittlich die RV’s bereits in den 2000” in den USA waren. Bei uns in Germany 🇩🇪 ist das sehr anders, besonders vor 24 Jahren, Ein RV bei uns war bestenfalls praktisch nicht komfortabel.

All the great things she will get to experience and family she will get to visit and spend time with and she gets to do the same when she’s with Issac. And she has a steady home base. What a great life to give a kid! When she starts school and goes back after summer break and everyone talks about what they did, can just imagine everyone listening intently! Can’t wait to see how you add your own touch to it and to watch the first time you and Ember take off together. Till then, take care.

    @wanderingaimlessly. 4 дня назад +12

    At 5:03 you said you have a fill and a drain. The white cap is to fill the tank inside the motorhome. The other connection is for using a water supply hookup, so that you do not have to run the pump. The drain valve for your fresh water tank is under the couch. The switch inside the door if I remember correctly is your porch light.

    Chinooks are fantastic. Very solid and you are right, overbuilt (which is good!). Excellent quality back in the day is why a lot of these manufacturers went out of business. I 2nd the diesel heater, cheap and easy to install and runs on minimal house battery draw. Look forward to seeing your posts. Good luck!

  • @Eric12358
    @Eric12358 4 дня назад +24

    Wow! I have a 2001 Trail Lite class b+ which is an exact copycat of the Chinook. Just minor differences here and there.
    Its built to last too. All oak cabinets etc.
    I kept the dinette table but took out the jack knife couch and built a huge storage shelf 28 inches tall then put my queen size foam mattress bed on top of that which folds in half like a murphy bed to get out of the way for day use. It works great.
    I put 3 100 watt solar panels on the roof and use 2 AGM batteries which is plenty. I also put in 2 slide out cutting boards under the stove and sink for more counter space. I use a single propane camp stove instead of the built in burners giving me more counter space.
    I also put in a huge slide out drawer under the stoves where the microwave was for more kitchen storage. Pots and pans and food. I put a new microwave in the shelf above the cab.
    Ive been living in it for 7 years quite comfortably.

    I loved watching the first walk through. About a year ago I started getting familiar with my Mom’s 97 Premier Chinook. Twins almost - same paint job. I had been smogging it every other year for Mom after my Dad passed way, and recharging batteries but it was time to find a new owner. As I was getting it ready to sell both the number of things needing fixing and my fondness for this configuration grew and I ended up putting the money into many repairs. Batteries, tires, brakes, shocks, oil change and transmission fluid, rear differential service, a leak in the sun main seal. The roof was degrading and needed to be stripped and redone, both big windowx seals leaked and needed to be removed and replaced and one part of the wall rebuilt, the fans were both shot, generator needs work. But it’s coming along well. I got it it for a good test run once the mechanical was done. Look forward to seeing more of your progress!

  • @Ra-zor
    @Ra-zor 4 дня назад +4

    If you plan on going below 32f then don't bother with lithium, just go gel batteries, as lithium you cant charge below 32f, the electrolyte freezes and you will drastically reduce the batteries capacity or destroy the battery. You can buy heating mats and jackets for lithium, but then you are using around 50w power (4a) just to keep the batteries warm, which is stupid.

    Overall this rig looks to be in very good shape for its' age .Obviously the previous owner(s) took very good care of her. Having driven it back from Utah, how did it "run" mechanically? Fuel economy? Any oil usage? Wheel alignment, does it pull in either direction or drive straight? Check the differential for the proper lubricant, better yet, best to change it. Not so sure about the composting toilet idea. Having the black & gray tanks really isn't that big of a deal, as long as you keep them emptied regularly and I used BORAXO in the black tank to keep it clean and not stinky. The V10 is a pretty reliable motor but regular maintenance is Always a way of insuring good operation. I am excited for your upcoming refit and adventures.

Repair and replace the broken items . A little upgrading of carpet and some updating and you will be on your way by spring . Hopefully no leaks , a new fan and AC and heat and a little body work is all it needs . Good luck !!!

If there is no CO detector I would make sure to get one (are regular home one is probably fine). Could save your life if any of the appliances have trouble. Looks like a good solid base to start from.

    My AC cover blew off when I was traveling in the mountains. I didn’t even know until I got out of my van and was walking back to it and noticed it was gone. It’s def possible.

    Doesn't look that big from the outside but there's quite a bit of room inside. Nice choice!

    The interior is amazing. I like the original wood on the Chinooks because it's quality.

    Fresh Earth tone carpet and matching updated cushions. Tape everything off and coat the blue fabric trim with fabric spray paint to match. That alone would make it look 10 years newer. You can use that fabric spray paint on the window shades too. Also, Pro-Tip: You don't need to pull the jack knife bed out all the way or at all, it's good to keep that aisle clear.

    What a nice looking RV you have. I'll be following you as much as I can through your renovations. One thing though. Have you thought about putting solar panels on the roof to keep the batteries charged. A good bank of Lithium batteries will give you all the power you need and can be charged through the day while travelling. That way you won't really have to rely so much on the generator for power.

    Those tires look like the b.F.G's KO3 oem Tires Those tires could already be almost two years old? The newest ko3 Have a different lug pattern on the sidewall. Check the date on the tires.You might have got a better price if you would have known that.

    Looks like a decent RV to start your remodeling. Smart to buy new tires. I look forward to your journey.
    Thanks for sharing.

    I saw on an RV channel YT that different states are not registering older RV’s. I tried to find the name of the channel to research their findings. They had years listed of RV’s and year of implication of new rules on registration and regulations.

    I love it Jaylena. I have friends who have them. They love theirs too. Congrats and I look forward to your update. Try to keep the blinds. You can clean easily. They stay put and completely cover without effort. And they stay put when moving.

    Wow, there IS a lot you're going to be doing to it. Renovation sometimes costs as much as the purchase price. I hope it all goes as you want. I'm looking forward to seeing Your progress. You're looking good, Jaylena!

    Love your Chinook Jaylena. A shame the seller wasn't completely honest about those items that are broken that you had issues with when driving. They would have known that you had a long journey ahead of you. So looking forward to any remodel, decor change up!🧡💛💫
