A Awesome. Cant wait to see your build. Warm welcomes....

Thanks amigo. I think that is the beauty of the Smitty. It offers a lot of space and room to install extras, and modify it. As it sits there in the picture, we are about $9k, or just under. Not bad for a tool.....uhmmmmm… ehhh... Toy... :) :)

Thanks..... :)

I fabbed the rear tire carrier due in large to the high tongue weight. The build starts in post 379 here in the Smitty thread, on page 26. The housing for the eccotemp L5 heater, was build from Carbon fiber. That build is covered in basic here as well, but more in depth on my High Desert FB page...

On the truck.....Good year wrangler as it came stock on 18 inch rims Trailer ..... 33's. Looking forward to follow your build.

We just got the 2018 XLT 4x4 FX4. Crew cab. 3.5L as well. Short box which is a foot shorter that your projected unit. heavy duty towing package, along with the 36 gallon fuel tank. E- locker rocks. Makes a big difference when off roading. I would recommend getting the crew cab with a short box...

That sounds like a great trip though... :) My wife did comment that using the onboard water system to put out the fire before going to sleep did use a gallon or two.

I have the Bluetooth Vitron 75/10 and used the load connection for my Engel MR040 fridge. I have the load setting at " Battery Life" When the fridge powers on it pulls 3.5 amps for a few seconds, but settles @ 2.5 amps. Voltage is around 13.2 volts with the load on, due in part to the small...

I have dry camped 3 times so far. Each a week end. We have a 12 gallon tank with shureflow pump and ecotemp 5l heater. Quick connect hose with sprayer. We have used water for dishes and other means.... but no showers. Most we have used is 10 gallons in a week end. We carry a 6 gallon RO water...

Ahhhh.. I see. :)

What would it have an internal battery for??

Went for the hills again this weekend. Found a beautiful place just below Kebler pass,CO. Nestled along the river, all was great.... Then the skies darkened.... and the outflow boundary from the approaching storm hit us along with 60mph....pea size hail and rain. As we learned, the solar...

Parking brake...???

So I went out in the garage. Used the lift jacks, and hoisted the trailer off the ground. Removed both wheels, flanges. I cleaned up paint, grease, and rubber coating, bolted everything back together, and was able to achieve a 1 deg negative camber on the left, and a 2-3 deg negative camber on...

I went looking at mine after last weekends outing. The right is almost at a negative 5 deg. camber and the left is about 7-8 deg negative camber. Both side are at their max adjustment as well. After a bit of further investigation the swing are on both sides are 100% level ( no negative camber)...

In closure wrt the Vitron Smart charger 75/10, you can use that to drive your loads up to 10 amps. The unique aspect is that you can customize the loads disconnect parameters. So if you have high draw units, or even low draw units, you can connect them to the load output from the controller...

I simply do not agree with what you are writing John. I also see that I cannot reason with you REGARDING THE VITRON 75/10, which is what we are discussing. I have no clue what the industry drives, what is norm wrt panels and design. I am simply discussing the Vitron Model 75/10. It is rated 10...

I have red the manual John. That is exactly why I am calling out your wrong statement. Nothing more than that. I don't think there is a need to plug this thread up with manuals and such, but I would encourage you to read the manual for the unit we are discussing, and you will see that the only...

No it is not. Jon why would you use a 10 amp charger to run more than 10 amps. Even at start up. Only an idiot would design, purchase and use a controller with max of 10 amps design limit to drive anything acquiring more than 10 amps... Including start up. This unit will pass 10 amps...
