All, I am not sure if its been mentioned or not but "new" replacement whiffle gears for Coleman Campers are available from Canvas Replacements out of Loyal,Wisconsin. I bought mine about 2 yrs ago. I purchased mine for around 150 dollars if I remember correctly including shipping. I have...

All, I talk to my local plastic supply company who was able to fix a "large" crack in my 1998 Coleman grandview. Basically they used a plastic adhesive along with a white plastic piece to connect pieces together that melted the plastic back together. It will appear whiter then the rest of the...

All, I have a 1998 Coleman Grandview. I recently contracted Palomino ([email protected]) to build me a new Palmino roof. Brian and Jevin is the guys I worked with getting the camper roof. My situation was a little different as I was replacing a roof that had a very large branch fall on my...

All, Sorry for not posting sooner between work and family I have not been able to post much on the progress on my 1998 Coleman Camper. There were some delays on both sides the first being an extra two weeks in the manufacturing of the roof which was the luck of draw. Basically they manufacture...

All, I added a picture of the branch that came down on the camper.....Get a more of a idea what I am dealing with. I have dropped off the plastic exterior skin to the plastics company. They took a look and said not to bad and could be repaired but may not be cosmetically perfect. I told them I...

All, Definitely have the before pictures...Wife is taking some as we go along....will post them once I get through. I have been reading on-line and have heard verbally about RV salvage yards and the availability of them around the Elkhart,Indiana area. I live fairly close to Elkhart and I pass...

All, Found out some more useful information.... My new top will not be a Coleman but will be a Palomino. The funny thing is Palomino Manufacturing ....at least for the roof manufacturing...is about 40 mins from my house (Toledo)  and I may save more cause of shipping...(I will pick it up)...

All, I have corrected the lower cabinet problem....wow is that old cabinet wood cheap.  I understand keeping things lightweight..but wow. A trip to Menards, 16 dollars, and my set of air nailers put things better then they were originally IMHO. I picked up the wall panel ($20) which will be...

All, I put in the spare whiffle gear and have been able to raise the camper up.and fully set it up. (dinnete out, door in place, and beds in place as well. So I can at least get my stuff out. The damage from the branch affected the one interior wall panel, one cabinet lower, and bent the bed...

All, Did some research based on some of my previous dealings for the whiffle gear as it was not available initially...at least locally. The whiffle gear I have new still is a aftermarket one that does not depend on the bearing design it uses a solid brass section for the guide that pulls the...

All, I went through my paper work for the new policy.....but not on the last monthly statement for the previous policy.... they got out of the $1000 and here is how they said this was proper....mind you I am not as upset as I was last night as I felt I was misled. On my last month of a six...

All, I have my Declarations page and Policy Contract. Both says Actual Cash Value for collision and comprehensive. Declaration page lists out coverage and the Policy Contract list out in more detail. These are the one from my last renewal....I keep all this kind of paperwork in my file cabinet...

All, My wife and I have a 1998 Coleman Grandview with external shower, furnace, air, stove, hot water, three way refridge, electric lift plus a few other accessories that I am sure I have forgotten. The camper has been a trusty companion for our family of 4. We purchased it from the original...
