Hey all, I'm looking for some type of plastic box I can recess into the side of my trailer to Install a water outlet. Something like this https://www.amazon.com/Eastman-60234-Maker-Outlet-Inlet/dp/B00NQJTKUS That one mounts into a recess to accommodate for drywall though so I'm not sure it'll...

I'm hoping to get some advice on charging my trailer batteries. The trailer has two 6v golf cart batteries run in series giving me 12v and 210ah capacity. They are running a 12v fridge and a string of led lights. Once fully charged, they can run the fridge and lights for ~12 days until they...

I'm considering pulling my carpet and monstalining the floor in my Tahoe. How will this effect road noise? I monstalined my jeep interior but the jeep was so loud it's hard to tell how much was from the monstaliner.

So this has been nagging me for a few months now in the back of my head and I would like y'alls opinion. A while back my wife and I had the tahoe about 20 miles out in the mountains camping. We broke camp to leave in the morning and that required driving up a steep trail we had descended the...

My name is McCool and I'm building a trailer. I've gathered so much information from threads here, I thought I'd post my own build to contribute. Initially, I drew up extensive plans for a fancy teardrop style trailer. But with 4 kids, I realized I didn't want to invest 300+ hours into a build...

Hello all, I'm at the point in my build where I need to decide on latches and hinges for my tailgate and lid. What's everyone using? I think I will probably use barrel hinges for both, but I'm lost when it comes to latches. Something lockable obviously. The lid will hinge from the front and I...

I'm a*little concerned about my shackle angle. I have the mounts clamped at the recommended spacing. I know when I put the weight of the trailer on the axle, it will flatten out some but does this look acceptable without any weight on it?

I am gathering parts for a simple trailer build. I'm curious where people are getting their axles from. I'm looking for a 3500lb axle, 6x5.5 lug pattern to match my tahoe, with leaf springs and all necessary mounting hardware. I've looked at etrailer, and Amazon, but I'm not finding exactly...

Hello all, I'm happy to see we have a number of chevy owners on here. I drive a 2005 z71 tahoe with a 1.5" key/spacer lift. I'm having a hard time deciding on a tire size. I'm curious what everyone else is running? I've checked out the z71tahoe-sub forum, but most tire size posts start with...

Hello all, I'm curious what everyone's opinion is on teardrop construction. I'm in the middle of planning my trailer and I'm on the fence still. I'm leaning towards 1" tubing for the framework of the walls and roof, but it seems most here use wood rather than steel. What are the pros and cons...

I'm looking for recommendations on new wiper blades. I know they aren't as glamorous as roof top tents, winches etc. But for those of us who enjoy traveling, they are a very practical upgrade that can make travel easier and safer. Sorry if it's been discussed recently, the only discussions I...

Hello all, I'm in the market for a new battery for my tundra. It's basically stock with a 12v fridge. I see most here recommend the sears diehard platinum 31m battery. I was all set to go with this recommendation, but it is currently unavailable on the sears website. Does anyone know if it...
