    Anyone run slide in with tool boxes? See some pics

    4JC I don't know why the little expand tab is there, that is the size of the pics I was trying to post. I cut open part of the floor in the service bed, Installed a bed slide and made a false floor over the top of the slide. the camper needed a little vertical help to get over the sides of the...

    Alaskan on a 97 F250 4x4 Diesel

    Mota The way the floor of this camper built I could probably be cut and pushed forward on another truck. Mine doesn't have room in front of the camper. I have a freshwater tank (25+gallons) and a battery cradle (4x 6volt GC). I came up with this set-up back when I was towing the home-built...

    Alaskan on a 97 F250 4x4 Diesel

    I got my service bed used as well. I didn't originally buy it for a truck camper, so I wasn't worried about the height. Once we moved from a trailer to the truck camper, I had to adapt. Our sun-valley Apache does have straight sided (no flare after the wheel wells) so all I had to do was space...

    Reality of cargo trailers off road?

    I'm not sure if this counts as your action shot. Its a 5x8 converted cargo trailer. the only "off road" thing I've done is to change the trailer tires to the next size larger, standard 2" ball hitch and trailer springs. Its been a great trailer and we have slept in it over 60 night since we...

    Ford Fullsize Thread !!!!

    Yeah I'm really digging it too. I've got the water plumbed into the front drivers side, and the inverter and 12VDC stuff in the drivers side over the wheel. I also recently bought a KNAP-KAP for it. But I have not had time to get it fitted properly or to build back doors.

    Hello All. My first post. Here is my simple custom GMC Cube Van conversion.

    I have a roll-up door on my truck. I don't have room for a second door, so I was thinking about something like this: TODCO-REAR-DOOR-SAFETY-RELEASE if you pull the release from the inside the handle and latch comes apart allowing you to open the door. No affiliation etc... I do like the idea...

    FOUND Vans For Sale!

    VW pop top in N Florida I saw this van at a LKQ you-pull lot here in north Florida. I don’t know if the pop-top would be of interest to someone here… I will probably be heading back to pull parts for my van next weekend and I’d be willing to take more pics. No affiliation etc etc -O

    Naming the Van?

    My family always names cars. When I bought my previous truck, I tried to come up with all kinds of cool names. But the one that my friends stuck me with was my first initial and the rental company I bought it from. So Ohaul was born…

    Dorm fridge in a vehicle?

    I have this type of set-up in my truck. Disclaimer: my needs demanded a large inverter & battery, so I already had these installed. Strapping down a fridge was a bonus. My “house” system is separated from the “truck” with a voltage sensing relay, so no worries about starting power. Battery...

    C02 question

    I should have finished the thought… Yeah I understand this type of valve. I have bikes with Schrader and other with Presta valves. I guess part of what I was suggesting was that you might be freezing the sealing surfaces (ie o-ring or sealing seat) so that even when you close it, once the seal...

    C02 question

    Could it be that the CO2 system you are using is freezing (or leaving ice crystals) in the valve stem? If so then maybe its just a slow leak that gets cleared by compressed air. A regulator like the ones on the larger CO2 bottles would hide a bit of ice inside the diaphragm housing.
