How to??

A cheap way (free) to do it. Print off your numbers on a printer, or write them on a piece of paper with a Sharpie (2" tall). Then put the paper and your dnr permit into a clear plastic sleeve (8 1/2 X 11) and tape the end shut, then safety pin it to your portable. I did this and it works great. Folds up with the portable with no problem and the wind doesn't bother it either. smirk.gif

some of the newer houses have a slot on them on the outside of the house where you are able to slide your DNR numbers into that. My old man did this where he placed his numbers on a sheet, and placed them in there. Lamanated them, and they worked awesome.

My Youkon has a slot on it. I took some paper, wrote my dnr # on it. Taped my license to it and had Kinkos laminate it for $3. Slides right into the holder, and cant get wet. I'd like to find out why the DNR quit making stickers. Those were the cats meow.

Go to any gas station or C-store and ask them for and old plastic sign that they use to advertise pop, smokes or anything else on that line. They are like plastic cardboard. They are very easy to cut to the size of your opening. The have corrugated lines that you can see very easy. Use the back of the sign. Trace all the info you need on it with a pencil and go over your pencil marks with Permanent marker. Leave a space in the corner to tape your shelter tag and you should be set.

This set-up will hold it's shape and will not run or fade like something you might print from your computer. Next season you just have to tape the new shelter tag over the old one.

Good luck,

fast40m,

Screw that same plastic sign to the outside of your permanent house. You could then cover the sign with a piece of plexiglass if you would like. You could screw or bolt the plexiglass on depending on what you have on the inside of the house.

My 5600 has an opening on the window for my license to slide into, as far as my info- I bought some 2 inch letters and numbers that are used to stick on mailboxes and such, and stuck them right on the window next to the license.

I just printed my name and address in 2" letters on a regular sheet of paper and put it into a self sealing laminating envelope. Then just slid it into the plastic window of the house. I think the laminating envelopes cost me 60 cents each.

I usually laminate the house license annually too.

    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
    • reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
