Thank you for the input. After checking them out more and watching the review videos online, I had actually decided to pass on gazelle. Most people have issues with the hubs and water getting in. Thank you.

I want to thank you all for the great ideas. I’ve looked through all that were suggested. For the ease of putting up and taking down, quality, reviews and overall size I still keep returning to the Overland-ish Base Camp V2, the Shiftpod 3 and the Gazelles. I’ve come up with the following pros...

Thanks. I’ll look at those as well. Do you know of another easy setup ground tent like these? I’ve seen the gazelle tents. Not bad looking themselves. Thanks for chiming in.

Not sure if I’m just typing in the wrong info or looking in the wrong thread during searching, but I have not seen any post on the Overland-ish Base Camp Ground Tent. Are there other posts? Does anyone have any info on them? Just found them yesterday while looking for easy setup ground tents...

I have tried to find the actual dimensions of the sleeping area(in between poles) for a Disc-o-Bed Cabelas 2XL. Does anyone own one that can tell me the true size? I’ve been hearing conflicting dimensions of what is posted on Cabelas/Discobeds specs and what others say during my research. I...

How are the IronMan's with regards to being waterproof? Their website states that they are only weatherproof which means to me that during a storm they may not be leak free. Just wondering. Thanks for the input.

What kind of rivnut tool are you using? Trailer turned out pretty sweet. Like those wheels too.

Awesome job! I like that window. Keep goin!

Awesome updates! The cooler rack is simple and effective. Nice job.

Very Cool!! Did you build the rack yourself? I'm going to be building my own and any tips on where to beef it up would be helpful. How do you like the tent? I think I am set on the CVT Mt Denali. Keep up the great work, it is really turning out pretty cool.

This thing is awesome. I wait for your updates weekly. If I missed this I'm sorry, but how did you attach the three layers of subfloor and insulation? To each other and to the frame. Thanks. Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the kind words. Sadly I haven't been able to work on it much lately due to a home remodel, but I hope to get some work done this weekend. The wife is actually looking forward to helping me get the old paint layers off too. I hope the product I bought works well enough. Ill keep...

Thanks. I have a lot of ideas for the inside which seem to change all the time but I can't wait until I get to begin on that part. The frame is just about done and I will be pulling the body off again soon in order to strip the many coats of paint it has received over the years. I'm looking...

That looks awesome! Have a build thread? At least more pics? That truck looks just as cool.

Very cool trailer, Congrats! I hope this question hasn't been asked yet, but sorry if I missed it. How are you keeping the water tank from rubbing against the support straps or its inclosure as a whole? I will be installing one very similar to yours and can't see how the tank won't get chafed...

Very cool trailer! Interested to see the actuators work and how you're going to do your kitchen. Yes, please let us know the inside dimensions of the tent when you get a chance. Keep up the good work.

Finally got some more work done over the weekend and long nights so far this week. The bag mounts are on. Following pics show me almost done with welding the top half of the bag to arm mount and top bag to frame mount. These pics are the final product, finally off the big yellow jack...

That looks awesome! I hope my kitchen turns out that nice. You have an amazing amount of space. Good job sir!

The bags are from airbagit.com. I believe they were the 2700 or 2500 lb bags. The dominators. Their website is quirky but the guys that answer are helpful. They have a total of 7-7.5 inch movement I believe from empty to full. They were buy two get two free, so I now have two spares just in case.

To those, if there are any watching, who have used trailing arms before, where are the weaknesses in the arms or mounts? I can't see any on the axle side unless there is something that simply shears or breaks off, but what about the mount side? Should I be concerned about anything? Should I...
