We just took our cricket for our first longer trip. 2 weeks from LA up the coast through Oregon and Washington ending on the Sunshine Coast in Canada. I really wanted the tigermoth and we drove to Phoenix to look at both the moth and the cricket side by side. Eventually the wife decided on the...

Unrelated to the flip pac (which is a super impressive build) : is that an aev snorkel? Noticed any huge mpg or sound differences since putting it on? Also got a 1500 ecodiesel and I'm thinking hard about the aev with the prefilter more so for the California dust then severe water crossings.

Verkstad awesome. i'll order one of those. thanks so much for the advice.

Verkstad: Tack mannen. Skaning i exil i Kalifornien. i got the ANL fuse placement from the renogy website yeah i didn't put a fuse between battery and master switch. what kind of fuse do you think i need? i'm using this fuse box...

Started building up the inside a little bit and cutting some wood for the floor and pantry shelf. Also got a start on the front hatch. New axle showed up so i finally got the wheels on. Gonna try to pull it out this weekend, get some better pics.

looks great. nice job. Did you shoot the paint yourself?

electrical i've been slowly plugging away at patching more sheetmetal and adding in supports. i need to go pick up some more steel Saturday morning. In the meantime i tried to get a plan for the electrical system for all the accessories (not the actual trailer wiring). this system would run...

@ericvs. super nice rig, love the setup. i was thinking of doing an ARE commercial shell conversion on my ram 1500 but decided to build a trailer instead so i could leave a base camp when i go riding or kayaking with the wife. i'm trying to finish it for a 3 week trip up to BC this July. on the...

Got a little further tonight with more sheet metal patching and adding supports between the boxes. I ordered a dometic 65L fridge/freezer and 3' 500 lbs locking sliders for the kitchen top/galley/sink.... Next I need to pick what batteries to get, if anyone got any favorites please feel free to...

Thanks Bigklittlecar. Yeah, I probably should have aimed for slightly smaller. It's pretty huge now that the boxes are on it. But then again wife and I are both pack rats so we'll see. And I def like the bear proofness of it. I was really happy when I tried this out tonight I'll be bringing 3...

Holy c#@%. This build is totally insane. Super impressive. Having a very basic knowledge of some of the skills needed to make this trailer I'm utterly amazed at your broad range of skills and how professional the end result is coming out. Hats off to you. And how humble you are about it just...

Sick. I love line-X painted stuff. I wish I could afford to do my whole trailer with it.

Socal's been hit with a terrible heat wave, it was a 114 at the house this weekend. Add to that that I'm battling the flu and I didn't really get much done. Must have been over 120* in the barn so welding wasn't all that appealing. I did get started on patching up the boxes and got them set...

Next. So now that I knew the dimension of the boxes I ordered some trailer parts, 60" axle, drums, same pattern as my truck. Also ordered 2 extra rims and toyo at2's I'm getting for the truck. I went a picked up Som 2"x2"x.125 and some 14ga for supports and started welding up the base...

1st weekend I got it home. Next came unloading by myself since my trusty neighbor was gone. This was pretty rough, but with 2x6s and some patience everything works. And I started cutting these things apart. This was hours of nasty nasty work. But I got them cut up to where I wanted them...

So after seeing all the cool builds on here I got all inspired to build something. Wife and I are totally not campers, never went with our families or anything. We've started going out exploring and love it. I've gotten back into mt biking and want to explore remote areas, wife loves kayaking...

Nice job!!!

super nice build. well done

Super bad *** dude. Very nicely done

explrcamping, it's got a degree indicator so getting it symmetrical isn't the toughest part. it took a few bends to figure out how much material is used to create a certain angle bend (so that your bend starts and ends in the right spot on your tube). offgridcamper. yeah, i was struggling with...
