    Lagun Table overhead storage

    I have seen tables stored on the ceiling, but can't see how? Do you have to buy a second bracket? I just got my Lagun mount and it seems nice.

    I'm envious of your level concrete pad, I would x brace the camper stand if it was mine

    Tacoma aluminum Pop-up

    Nice job! I would definitely shim the bed rails to clear the cab, I guess you would have to put a pc at the bottom of the doors Did you use a spoolgun?

    out with the old in with the new

    Ok thanks Alaskans have a small hole drilled thru the piston in the raised position. Once the roof is up you put in the pin, which rests on the cylinder, taking the load off the hydraulics. Would this work on the actuators?

    billboards hauler: homebuilt fiberlgass composite popup for flatbed tundra

    That control looks slick. Can you adjust individual actuator speeds? I may send mine back if you can. I am curious what you find with insurance, I'm in the same boat. The replacement value of a new Alaskan with all the options I'm adding is over 30k, I definately don't have the time or money to...

    billboards hauler: homebuilt fiberlgass composite popup for flatbed tundra

    Thanks for the reply, what control did you end up with? I bought a PA25 , but it can only control the 4 in pairs of 2. I ordered 4 22" 400# from Progressive , they said they would try and match the speeds.

    out with the old in with the new

    Nicely done sir! Thoughtful design and very well executed. Any chance you could post pics of the new actuators? I just ordered 4 of the 22" 400# from Progressive for my Alaskan build.

    Can my truck handle it ? What do I need?

    Most all trucks , even 3/4 tons and up behave a lot better with airbags. I'm not familiar with your truck or trailer, but I would imagine you are going to end up with several hundred pounds of tongue weight. What's your payload? A Mach 8 rooftop ac is around a 100#. Unless you need them while...

    billboards hauler: homebuilt fiberlgass composite popup for flatbed tundra

    Looks awesome. How do the actuators seem? Think they are really good for 400#? I have a Popup hard side (Alaskan) and the roof is heavy( no clue really 500# would seem high). Even if the actuators are only good for 200# each I should be ok. Is the motor and gear box metal or plastic? Thanks and...

    Alaskan electric hydraulic pump

    Thanks, I will have to give Alaskan a call to find out the pump size. I was hoping there would be a model number.

    Mount ARB fridge in camper or inside truck cab?

    My only input is that I am designing the interior of my new Alaskan lower section to include my ARB 50qt on a slide under the counter, the slide is so the fridge can be accessed if food or beer is sitting on the counter top
