    "Safe" to drill areas on a FlipPac

    I have a bunch of holes in mine... Easiest spot for an awning is in the rear just above the window. The previous owners of mine had an awning up there, but sold it seperately from my FP. I installed a CVT 55" awning (under $300) using the same holes, but different mount system. My mounts are...

    Dang Stan, your busy opening up all over, excellent! I'm happy with my current setup, but may want to upgrade in the future...might head up there just to check them out. Thanks.

    Mostly done flip pac build...??

    Here's a picture of the rear of my truck showing my work lights from this past winter.

    Mostly done flip pac build...??

    ...oh & a tip if your going to wire/tap your lights into your reverse circuit & aren't too sharp elictrically (I'm not!). Have spare fuses at the ready! If you end up popping a fuse (brake lights as an example), you can probably disable your truck/lock the shifter. Nissans lock out the shifter...

    Mostly done flip pac build...??

    Nice! There's all kinds of funky ways to wire up lights using relays. I currently have my rear work lights wired to light up whenever my truck bed lights would have turned on. That means they turn on whenever I unlock with the remote, whenever I open a door, whenever I flip the bed light...

    Why no backward flip pac?

    Oh, just thought if another reason why not to make yours backwards flip: Rainfly! If your tent may eventually need a Rainfly I honestly couldn't figure out how I'd get it onto my flip. Maybe on a smaller truck/jeep. The ultimate setup of course would be a sturdy single wall waterproof tent well...

    Locking storage vault on CL in Mesa, AZ

    ...weighs 300lbs? Perhaps the seller means can hold 300lbs.

    Dry Flush Toilet??

    Interesting. I'd go with a composting toilet for a more stationary build (tiny house, hunting camp etc). You can even use them in more mobile applications as well. The couple who built up the "castle RV" featured on tiny house use a composting unit. I do believe that they are setup in one...

    Dry Flush Toilet??

    Yes, if anyone has actually used one I'd be interested in feedback as well. Curious if it vaccume packs your business or something? I use a reliance hassock toilet, and I think it works perfect for what it is. A bit better IMO compared to the clip on seat lid/bucket, simply because if it's...

    Do you bring milk?

    I like the lactose free simply for its extended outdate. Home I buy it from Costco, comes in a 3 pack of 1/2 gallon cartons, very well priced. Lactaid brand quarts if im out on the road, or as others mentioned shelf stable small boxes. For powders I've used both whole milk bought in bulk from...

    Why no backward flip pac?

    Honestly I don't know that I would like my flip flipped backwards. The way it flips towards makes it pretty easy for me to climb into & more importantly out of. If it were flipped backwards I'm sure I'd come up with something to make getting in & out of bed easy, but as I'm currently setup with...

    Titan Pro4x?

    Supposedly there is a reasonably easy mod to get the rear locker to work in any range. I don't see the need for it, so haven't looked much into it. At "E" rated tires on stock 18" rims have been fine for me off highway, and that's with the stiffer sidewall. I do suppose it really depends on...

    Titan Pro4x?

    I'm on my 2nd. Bought my first one used, liked it so much I traded it towards a brand new one. Super comfy, both the drive & the interior. Very good value for the price, even better value now that the new ones (supposedly) will be coming out. I wouldn't buy the new model for at least 2 years...

    Titan Build Options

    I really like the Bilsteins. Tough to describe well, but the ride is firmer/more responsive. No change with adding in the level disks, just as nice. However loaded I'm a bit lower in the rear, a ride I don't like. I'm shortly going to put my ride-rite bags back on & that will fix that. I...

    Titan Build Options

    Just checked Amazon, that decked system does seem nice! Claimed weight is about 200lbs, so keep that in mind. That's one of those situations where what will your time be worth to build your own (from an apartment no workshop) vs just buying there setup outright. I've built up all of my stuff...

    Titan Build Options

    I run Nitto Terra Grapplers in 295/70/r18 on my Titan, which nominally turns out to 34.25". I think in actuality when new they are little taller. I personally wouldn't go any bigger, unless youd like to do it for form rather than function. They fit my stock suspension with a bit of front...
