Here's a link to a thread I started when I got my M1101 in 2016. I haven't had much time since my last post there as we have been doing major remodeling to our home and that's been my focus. https://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/my-m1101-project.161611/

I was away from the forum for while, but I'm back and would like to thank you all for your responses! Folding up the tent with the annex still attached!!?? Now that's one I will have to play with.

I have the largest CVT tent and always use the annex. But it's a pain to assemble and dis-assemble, as I'm sure others know. So, do you leave the floor/tub attached to the walls of the annex when you tear it down? Or do you remove and re-install the floor each time? I've thus far removed the...

Keep us updated on your build! Looking forward to seeing what you do. It's a blank sheet so to speak, so many possibilities!

I did not do a write up, but I did do the conversion. Questions?

Congrats! They're great trailers. Here's my thread on my build, might help with some ideas: https://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/my-m1101-project.161611/

Yes we do have the same tent! In going the annex route I'm reasoning that if it's cold enough to need heat, then it's cold enough to need the annex for a changing room (camping with wife and daughter). However, as I suspect you well know, the annex is not something you "just throw on" for an...

Not sure what tent you are using, but I was going to go with the same unit but put it under the trailer and duct into the annex instead of the tent. Of course this only works if you are using a vestibule/annex. These units can easily be remotely controlled (from inside the tent), and since I...

Here's the tanks I used. One is a 16x18 and one is a 16x24: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0006MRSK2/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 In order to get the forward small tank in place you will have to drop one side of the axle ( I say drop, but you will find it easier to leave the...

Sorry for the delay, had a death in the family and was offline for a while. Not sure if I've posted pictures yet but I'll put some here now. I installed two water tanks under the trailer and rigged up a pump system for filling the tanks and pumping to the shower. The two tanks total approx...

The lunette ring and surge brake actuator are a unit, which I removed, and placed a standard receiver tube under the tongue upon which the original unit was mounted on top of. I used some 3/8 steel plate that I had sitting around from the rack building project (which was actually steel laying...

Ready to roll!

In a different spot on the same trip.

A shot from our recent trip.

I bought these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00P4UVV2C/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Two of them were just enough to lift my rack with the largest CVT RTT on it. I had an issue with using just two actuators. Using two actuators placed in the middle of the rack on each...
