Ok so... Im back. Did you really think Id be gone long?
So I bought the Aliner. Doing work on it now to get it all fixed up some. Its a work in progress.
Next on my ToDo list is to replace the A/C unit with a better/quieter unit.
Now, first, I know the way they installed the one thats in it now is not really how it should be done.
The way the A/C is situation on my particular camper is.. its on the driver side under one of the bench seats. So taking it out and replacing isnt really the issue.
Specifically what I need to know is.. what materials do I need to:
a) properly stabilize it securely, mounted level, and minimize rattling? Will just some sort of foam blocks work?
b) How can i insulate it so that the warm air goes out the side vent and not back into the RV? I was thinking about just going to Home Depot or something with the dimensions have them bend a sheet of metal (or something) to fit and just secure it over the A/C unit with some sort of padding around it. Will that work? I need the most relatively easy way to do this because I wont have alot of tools with me to do it.
Im open to suggestions.
I will say... ive searched the net for how to's on aliners... and unfortunately you dont see a whole lot out there.
