    Rare Toy Hauler Adventure Rig (Build)

    Sweet rig. Reminds me of the old school fleetwood outfitter. I like its ability to serve as both garage and cabin. Keeps those expensive toys away from prying eyes when traveling or staying in seedy areas.

    2016 Livin’ Lite 10.0 Truck Camper - Quality???

    I had a 6.8 livin lite that I bought new on a f250 for 4 years and over 8k miles and I had no issues. I think mine was a 2013 so it really was no thrills in comparison to the Lance I own now. It's exterior construction is similiar to high end cargo trailers. The interior felt more like a lab...

    PovertyRoamer- F550 4x4 CC 7.3 11' flattie moto/mtb/surf sherpa with a Lance 1040

    Last but not least my spare tire carrier is about done. Was supposed to be mounted up this week on my mc carrier but I'm home sick not wanting to give my cold to my brother who was kind enough to build it for me as this is a bit above my current metal working skills

    PovertyRoamer- F550 4x4 CC 7.3 11' flattie moto/mtb/surf sherpa with a Lance 1040

    So currently here in December of 2021 I've been daily driving the truck to work 60 miles round trip and I'm approaching 1k miles. I got towed home back in the spring time for a bad injector pressure regulator. Also threw a new camshaft position sensor on it while I was troubleshooting it just to...

    PovertyRoamer- F550 4x4 CC 7.3 11' flattie moto/mtb/surf sherpa with a Lance 1040

    Than loaded the camper back on to do some more testing to try and find any more issues with the truck before I go too far from home.

    Got my headache rack remounted and messed around with where I was going to mount a 48" box.

    PovertyRoamer- F550 4x4 CC 7.3 11' flattie moto/mtb/surf sherpa with a Lance 1040

    Another costly fix courtesy of the lift installer. They bore out one of the hub assemblys to mount the 10 lug adapters but I guess this was too much work so thankfully they didn't do it to the rest. If anyone is curious about the stoutness of dana 135 axles they are heavy duty.

    PovertyRoamer- F550 4x4 CC 7.3 11' flattie moto/mtb/surf sherpa with a Lance 1040

    Lots of heating stuff and beating on wrenches to break stuff free

    PovertyRoamer- F550 4x4 CC 7.3 11' flattie moto/mtb/surf sherpa with a Lance 1040

    Been slow to post bc everything seemed to be taking longer than anticipated. I picked up 5 continental mpt81's in the 41" size late spring and they sat in the garage all summer until I had some time off work in September. I had to remove the adapters and figured while I was in there I'd replace...

    Over-family-landing composite F-550 build

    Fellow f550 7.3 owner and I'm subscribed. Looks to be a good build. I remember seeing it for sale in the classifieds.

    2003 Northstar -- 2004 f-250

    Thx for the tc centering idea. How much bigger than the camper width did you go?? I'm also a big zf6 fan.

    PovertyRoamer- F550 4x4 CC 7.3 11' flattie moto/mtb/surf sherpa with a Lance 1040

    I'm also just going to post this here because I saw it on the net and envision my next build will be a modified 25' long shipping container on some old school 6x6 iron like this. With a bathtub and wood burning stove inside I'd have no desire for a home. Just a metal shop with a gym inside on a...

    PovertyRoamer- F550 4x4 CC 7.3 11' flattie moto/mtb/surf sherpa with a Lance 1040

    Got a little closer to getting my side compartments completed over the weekend. Reused some old sport climbing carabiners to fasten the chain to the doors. Greatest thing about the doors is they serve as a tailgate and there's nothing I like better than sitting on a tailgate and drinking beer...

    PovertyRoamer- F550 4x4 CC 7.3 11' flattie moto/mtb/surf sherpa with a Lance 1040

    They're 11r22.5. True tractor trailer tires and alcoa aluminium rims. They're all show but nice on the highway. Will be going supersingle at some point. Undecided on whether I'll go 22.5x12 with G178s at 395/65 since I already have the adapters to run 22.5's or first attack 20x11 with g275...

    PovertyRoamer- F550 4x4 CC 7.3 11' flattie moto/mtb/surf sherpa with a Lance 1040

    Thanks. I just bought pretty much every sensor, including the CMP, that the internet reported could go bad on the 7.3 and they're sitting on my work bench along with the UVC harness and replacement plugs. I have 3 of these 7.3's now and I've had one CMP replaced under recall and one truck had...
