So….. what camper are we talking about? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Overland Ram, the bumper looks great, did you do the grill too?, or buy a black one? How long ago did you do the bumper? I want to do the same, but I’m nervous it will peel off, even if I take a 80 grit disk to it. I have the Raptor spray guns and a compressor. I did my bed and was pretty happy...

If I was king for even 5 minutes, you would have to have a minimum post count to post a for sale add Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I’d go with AAA too unless she has mad mechanic skills, however, that’s not what you asked . This is what I throw in my truck for long trips: I have a 2-3 decade old version of it that is in a better suitcase type box, but the contents are similar...

Do you have to pay the 30% import duty if it’s not new? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Northstar makes several campers that will easily sleep 4. My Adventurer 8.5 did ok in my 2500 Ram 6’ bed, but does better in my new 3500 8’ bed. My camper will sleep two adults in the queen cabover, another skinny couple in the pull out dinette and a kid in the fold down bunk over the dinette...

I have a set and like them a lot, just don’t ever go in an area with road brine or salt. Mine tuned into an expensive(if you count the landing gear adjustable feet and the Stow and Go storage system)pile of poo after running them just a few days in New England on salted roads. The aluminum is...

Jumper cable ends are a pretty poor way to transfer large currents , they don’t have much contact area. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

My 21 3500(I think same axle) is 79” outside rubber to outside, stock 275/70-18 tires/rims Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Not to mention you can’t exactly drive to a Jeep dealer with a 30 year old 6x6 for a brake job or a bent drive shaft. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I have USAA for three vehicles(including my truck ), but they had Progressive underwrite my Northstar Adventurer truck camper policy…. Was super easy and cheap. I think $168 per year Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Any of you folks that are busting on the OP for not being an Electrical Engineer even in the market for, or own a diesel heater? Maybe it’s just wistful thinking, but it’s seems like a decade ago the OP would have been thanked for posting the info and asked to clarify energy consumption. This...

Great build.. thank you for detailing the process. I too am day dreaming about a build. I have a Northstar Adventurer , which is a great camper, but it annoys me that I didn’t build it :) Keep up the pics, I know it takes time!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

When I was a kid my Dad had a beat-up VW bug. He had big re-tread deep lug snow tires on the back. The thing would go anywhere! 4x4 is nice to have, but you can do 90% with 2-wheel drive. Sometimes 2-wheel drive is better , you usually stop before you get stuck :) Sent from my iPhone using...

FYI . The link to the pics seems to be broken Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Nice job. Excellent end result for anyone, never mind a first effort. Plus you get the satisfaction of knowing you made it (and saved 10s of thousands ) It’s amazing how much money some of the new commercial off-road trailers are, and your chassis is better than most. Enjoy Sent from my...

This/\ This has happened several times recently. A post gets deleted/removed with no trace? Is this done by a mod? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Sharp looking truck. I like where this is headed Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I saw a video recently(here??) of a guy doing it with a lug wrench on the wheel. Once the vehicle started the wheel got to Mach one and launched the wrench, just about took his head off! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I’m not sure on the washing in the winter in New England plan if you have fluid film or other oil applied. I plan on giving my truck a thorough wash at the end of winter. If you just do a half baked rinse, you are not going to get anything but the easy to see stuff, and in the case of Fluid...
