    Hi Paul, I'm not using anything other than the stock "rubber pucks" that came on my CAMP-X. The height is fine on my 2021 F-150

    I made another batch of Mollenuts.... Mollenuts are a convenient way to mount things to your OEV Molle Panels. They're specifically made for the panels on most OEV campers. There are 3 different form factors for the Mollenuts: A.) Vertical orientation — $14.00 each B.) Horizontal...

    Get the external solar port. We tend to park in the shade, so there is no sunlight on the roof. The external port lets you use a portable panel to maximise charging.

    I don't have any of the issues you mentioned, but mine has sounded like that since day one and has worked fine for the last 3 years.

    You need to be very careful with the slope. My old driveway had a slope, and I thought I could remove my CAMP-X without issue. Boy, was I wrong. The longer you extend the legs of the lift jacks, the worse it gets. Try to make your dolly as tall as possible, and try using blocks under the legs...

    I thought about pulling the sink out and pressing it, chickened out because I was afraid of stress cracking it somewhere. I sent you a PM with some additional photos.

    That's the way my sink is too, it's been mentioned a few times, but I don't think anyone has come up with a solution. I just soak up the excess water with a dish rag. There's a better faucet that several of us have used to replace the original. It gives better control of mixing hot and cold...

    You must be very tall. I have no issues sitting upright in the bed. I actually wish OEV would make it shorter to increase the fuel economy.

    You are correct, it's next to the breaker. What size inverter are you adding? The stock battery cables are only 6 AWG, I changed to 1/0 for my 2000W inverter.

    The inverter fuse has two mounting holes. I drilled two small holes and used screws with nuts and washers. As a side note, this was not a 20-minute job. It took the entire day, as I had to remove everything from the battery compartment and then disconnect & replace the original battery wires...

    There are some pictures in my post #560 showing how I added holes and wired my Battle Born GC3 battery. It was a minor pain in the butt, all you need is a Step Bit to make the hole from the battery box side. I used some rubber hose I had lying around to keep the wire from chafing on the holes...

    I needed an external 120v outlet and wanted it near the back for easy access. $18.97 on Amazon eBike charging and Starlink are the main uses for my inverter.

    I had the pleasure of drilling a large hole in my CAMP-X for an exterior outlet. This is what a panel cross-section looks like.
