Tips and Tricks / Re: Improvements & Enhancements, 2007 PC-2350

You are welcome!

My 2007 2350 has the outdoor storage compartment located just behind the rear tires.  I believe, the following year, Phoenix shifted the compartment all the way back rearward.  I don't know how this difference will affect the mounting of your storage tube.  Hopefully, you can figure it out.

Under my 2007 storage compartment is supporting angle iron.  Hopefully, you have something similar in the same area, to attach this end of the tube to.

So i will have to agree about the jeep aspect. We own a jeep and one of my wifes favorite things to do is go get offroad somewhere and explore. I mentioned the scooter idea is one of our considerations as we had great fun with those. But ultimately we will want to have a jeep with us for places like everywhere in the high desert out west.

I agree that a standard toad-vehicle increases complexities, hence considering scooters or similar, but.....

Where we go out west, most especially south-west, all too often, a standard vehicle in a 4x4 configuration is "a must" to see the sights we came to see.  The roads, if you can call them roads,  are just too harsh or otherwise not possible for our motorhome.  I don't want to punish our PC like that.  Also, our 4x4 Jeep Liberty doubles as a place for extras that we would normally leave at home, bicycles, golf clubs, our huge zero gravity chairs, firewood, as some examples.

Speaking of zero gravity chairs.....

I always felt that Phoenix missed the mark with both the older and newer rear wall design that was introduced in 2004.  With a little more thought, the spare tire compartment we have, could have slightly increased in size, been squared-off and include a compartment door to carry large items like zero gravity chairs in place of an actual spare tire.  The choice of carrying a spare tire for long adventurous trips, or zero gravity chairs for short get-away trips, would have been great.

To add to this....
My new to me 2011 PC had inoperable power mirrors when i got it. Troubleshooting led me to a cut wire in the area of the parking brake. Repaired that and now mirror works right. While i was in there looking around i found a blue/white wire in a bundle that had been deliberately cut. I made a temp reconnection to investigate what i may have fixed that hadnt been working before as this was a switched 12v from the ignition. Apparently PC disabled this wire because they used it through the step switch to to toggle the step lock function. When i made the connection the step lock no longer worked.
So if you notice that wire cut up behind the brake pedal area....leave it

FWIW,

A few years ago i took a trip to Costa Rica and we rented scooters. They put me on a 115 and wife on a 50. IM a 300lb guy and wife is, lets just say, considerably smaller.  We generally had no issues and went everywhere we needed to go. Only issue was on a steep uphill grade for about 1/2 mile, was slow but we made it. We have this as an option we are looking at as well with a small enclosed trailer and 2 scooters. From my experience scooters would be fine as long as you plan to stay off major highways and put around at around 30-35 mph as a general rule.

I forgot to add that there is a clearance issue with the OE window crank knob so i had to buy a replacement 1/2 in shank knob and it works. The OE knob was a 1 in shank.

LRUCH,

Probably not a coincidence.

VERY INTERESTING!


The 3 brands of tires I've had the most problems with in my ~50 years years of driving are all in the same group!


Thank you for the details,
Larry
