Have not got much done other than spring swap and finally installed some new rims and tires this month. Had been running on the 285's until they needed replacement. Looked kind of funny with the X/B swap that also has add a leafs. Here are after spring swap and then with the new rims and...

Thanks for the opinions I will be going to look at it tomorrow. Hopefully its nice and not rotted out, time will only tell tomorrow. Randy

Does that sound like a fair price for this Apache? Randy

Finally heard back from the seller with the 1964 Apache and it is a Silver Eagle model. Just trying to find a time to hook up with him to look. Mark that's what I was thinking of doing for the wife and kids also for the potty set up, how does it work out for that purpose? I am hoping this...

Thanks Mark. Now if I could just get the seller with the 1964 model to call me back so I can go look and most likely purchase it. I know my wife is not to sure about camping with out a bathroom since last time are had a nice big travel trailer with A/C along with all the bells and whistles. I...

I am not sure exactly what models they are sellers did not say. The 1964 model looks something like this one I believe http://www.fiberglassrv.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=30775&stc=1&thumb=1&d=1282798790

I am looking at a couple older Apache tent trailers to modify for offroad camping with family. Would this be a good platform to start with it will be a slow process as time and funds allow. My plan is to beef up frame, setup with same rims as tow rig and water storage and ect. Any input and...

Aussie T Thank you for the reply. The reason for asking about using a gps via bluetooth was if cell service was not available. I think I decided on the tab pro 10.1, I looked at a few different ones at the big box store this last weekend. Really liked the pro over the tab3. I post up my...

Hi I am looking at purchasing a Samsung galaxy tab pro 8.4" or 10.1" for navigation and also for basic emails, web surfing etc for an extra internet device for family. I have always had android phones and devices so I am use to them. My question is has any one used one yet for this and would I...

Thanks for that link I checked it out. Looks like I need to save a few pennies for one. They look nicely constructed and that is what I'm looking for. Good Amount of room also for the bigger one. Time to start build plans while saving up. The wife is going g to real happy with me now that I got...

Hi I am not sure if this is the right area to post this so if not please move to correct area. My question is there any companies that make tents to install on utility trailers? Some thing similar to this set up I found on a craigslist add...

My opinion is go with the Excursion since it is almost done and since I have a 00 Excursion. Also agree with the 12v Cummins suggestions which is what I plan on doing to mine and lots of super duty's running around for parts. Besides yours is same color scheme as mine and you have it setup...

Here are a couple in the day light. Randy

Thanks TKSC01 are you running a lift to fit those tires? I have been thinking of a rough country 4" lift kit with all springs for 99-04 F250/F350. this would gain me about 6" on the Excursion. Randy

TKSC01 nice looking Excursion. A couple questions, who's bumper and what size tires are you running? Randy

Thanks for comments, yes I will do the Dana 60 also when funds allow. It's a slow process when you are only able to buy parts here and there. I wish I could just do everything at once I am sure just like everyone else would like to also. But makes you appreciate it more when it is done. I...

Here is my work in progress this winter will be building custom front bumper and hopefully doing the spring swap on my 2000 Excursion. Then will be doing 12v Cummins conversion following year. Here is a couple pictures with my roof rack finally on that I built this last winter in my garage. Randy

Here are a few pictures in day light. Randy

I got the rack mounted. Just need to wire up lights. Here is a picture sorry it was getting dark I'll take a few more in morning in actual day light. Randy
