Have you ever thought of flipping the axel? It would raise your trailer about 3-4" and would not cost you a dime. Jeff

Slee must have made some changes in their "Short Bus" bumper. Looks a little different. Jeff

Getting closer It is getting a little closer. There will be a rack to carry misc items and a removable motorcycle rack. That is not the final length of the receiver tube. Hope to have it done this weekend. Jeff

Do you mean an electric coffee pot? If so, you may need all of those batteries after all. Jeff

Actually, those are just 2X4's painted black so he thinks I am working on his trailer. I am really down in Mexico spending all his money! LOL! Really....picture was taken pre-fitment and the tubes are just sitting there. Remember, measure eight times and cut once, then go get another tube and...

Yes, I am curious too! That is an absolute ******t load of storage capacity. I have 200 AH in my trailer and even with all the components I run, parked in the shade for three days, I have never came close to using what I have. One suggestion though, if you are going to use all of those batteries to...

It's the cargo conversion bug. It's the ultimate for the habitual tinkerer. What ideas do you have for the next one? Looks great. Very nice fab work. I am sure the next one will be even better. Jeff

I think a lot more info would help your cause. What condition is it in? Does it run? How much rust? For a rig like this you should have a ton of pictures too. Jeff

I think you would be better off trying to answer your own question(s). The Adventure Trailer is a hard core, almost indestructible trailer. Not for four people though. What type of off road camping do you do? Consider what your spouse needs to be happy. When the Queens happy, the kingdom is...

Attachment point I intended from the begininning to have some sort of attachment point at the rear in case the trailer slid sideways off of the trail. I took a section of receiver tubing and sectioned it into the rear most joist and extended it all the way to the next floor joist. The receiver...

Loose ends Finally getting around to tying up some loose ends. Redid the door seals. When I first got the trailer useable, I installed the quick connect for the stoves propane next to the refrigerators slide. So I figured it was time to do it right. Added a small access panel and spun the...

I have for sale (4) Tacoma wheels and two LT 255 70 R16 BFG A/T's. The tires were only used on my trailer, so the have less than 100 miles on them and then were removed and stored in my shop. I wound up going to Landcruiser wheels and a different size tire. A couple of the rims have some very...

They are on the top. Jeff

Don't waste your time looking anywhere else other that WTW. It is truly the mecca for pop up campers. People that have caught the bug hang out there to learn and ask questions. Great bunch of peeps over there. If one pops up for sale, it will be linked to there. I sold my Eagle there and the guy...

There is a better rigid insulation that Lowes now carries. I think it is R-8 and is foil backed. The picture I posted above was taken prior to the plywood being sealed. You do not need to worry about water getting under your camper unless you let it set outside and don't use it. And in that...

You are ok. I just didn't want you to think you had to keep checking the turnbuckles. The first time you check them after putting the camper on the truck and driving for a while, the camper will self center it's self. Tighten only the loose turnbuckles which ever ones they are. Then leave them...

Not loose, just don't keep cranking on them. When you stop to check them, one should be loose and one tight. Just tighten the loose one. Resist the urge to wank on them. Jeff

I love the new back door. The next time we meet, I will show you how to make the Arctic wrap for cheap. Really looks good on the truck. What does the honey think? Be careful of cranking down on the turn buckles. She needs to move a little bit and you can exert a large amount of force cranking...

Get down with your bad self! Sam looks very happy. Sure beats no tent poles and sleeping on the ground doesn't it? Jeff & Vic

Those leafs were All Pro Off Road Expo Springs. Even I did not have enough weight for them to ride nice. Sold them in one month. I don't think that my fairing made any difference in MPG, but it definitely made a difference in the buffeting. Especially when I added the rack under cab for the two...
