Here's what I put together for the bolt handles after the plastic handles broke: But like I said, I'm probably going to 86 this type of solution for securing the wings for the above latches.

I'm still working on it myself. I think a better option might be to fore go the way that the jumping jack bed wings are secured in the first place since there is slop built into the design by only having the front secured via the bolt in a slot on the bed wings, and nothing in the back. It was...

It's kind of counter intuitive, but this is how I've gathered it works. If you are using high pressure (no regulator/ from a 20# tank etc.) then you need the filter to keep the propane from dissolving oily contaminates in the hose because it could be at 120psi or more and something to do with...

If my filter ever clogged on me I wouldn't be too worried about running it straight from the tank until I got back to town for a new one, personally. a few hours isn't going to kill the heater. And the whole point of the filter is so that the fuel is clean by the time it gets to the catalytic...

I just bought the in line fuel filter and leave that attached to the Big Buddy, and a 5' hose. It was like $30 or $40 all together. Are you talking about something else?

I like mine. I have the Big Buddy version and to be honest if I had to do it over again I would have gotten the smaller one (Portable Buddy?). The big one can be overkill and will cook you straight out of the jumping jack, even with temps reaching single digits outside if you don't have it on a...

Awesome, thanks for the info on the wheels and tires. I'm probably gunna have to be that guy and outright copy you if I can't find a set on craigs from someone pulling them off their jeep. As far as the table, I don't even have it on the trailer anymore unless I'm using it as a utility trailer...

Lookin sweet dnellans! I was wondering what wheel and tire setup you have there, and if you had to do any sort of lift for the torsion axles? I looked into it a bit and the bolt pattern at least on mine is the same as a lot of small trucks/suv's etc, i.e. a ford ranger and I think a jeep...

I use the trailer as a utility trailer from time to time. So I have been taking the tent out by using a piano dolly under one side and then lifting the other side up and rolling it out until I can set one end down on the garage floor. Then I take the piano dolly out of the other side, put it...

Love the zipper mod dnellans! One of those "duh, why didn't I think of that" type of things I will definitely be doing. I have been annoyed at the zipper and having to reach over the beds to unzip and zip the bag. I have just been walking on top of the bed sides :o Another thing that I have...

That does sound like more of a camber issue than an alignment issue. You should try to determine if something is bent. Such as the spindle or the arm or the axle. If the spindle nut at the arm is coming loose, it would allow more camber as well. Failing or failed torsion rubber will also result...

So I finally had time to build my truck box/sleeping platform this weekend. It's not as slick as the Truck Vault, but I'm pretty proud of how it turned out so I thought I'd post it. :D Side flaps are cut to fit the full width of the truck bed and are hinged with a piano hinge. The two...

18Seeds asked me this in private and he gave me these dimensions for his ARB Frige H20” x W15” x D27.76”. Here is what I told him: I think it depends greatly on what seat package you have. Bucket seats or bench seat.

As far as all around pros and cons, plywood, and dimensional lumber (a 2x4 is dimensional lumber) fit the bill for most applications. I'm sure there are a myriad of other materials that would be better in different ways, but wood is readily available, cheap, and easy to work with. Most people...

Here are some pics of the topper in the daylight:

Thanks for the feedback guys, appreciate it. I've never owned a vehicle that was a "color" before. Always had white black or gray. The red was a big step for me but I really like it now. Easy to find my truck in the parking lot and I think it lends itself to the sports package well. Well...

Just thought I would add my truck to the discussion... It's a SR5 RCSB 4x4 5.7 with the sports package, which is basically paint matched bumpers and grill trim (rear bumper is more of a roll pan) and the 20" sport Alloys. It also has buckets and a center console which is kind of rare for a...
