    Howlingmoon RTT parts ***Update***

    I got a hold of Howlingmoon a few weeks ago. The guy said they have been having a problem with these and had re-designed them. He said the factory was closed for the summer and they would return the 8th and he would ship me out a few. I found a company in So Cal that makes a billet aluminum...

    Suburban/Yukon 2500 year compare

    I'm looking at getting back into a GM also. How many miles are to many when buying a used GMT800? I know a lot depends on how it was maintained, but when to most major components fail? I know the motors go for over 300k, but what about all the other parts (trans, tcase, etc)? We has a 04 3/4 ton...

    Utility bed trailer build

    I had a thread on this awhile ago, but the photobucket fiasco made it easier to just create a new thread. So this is my utility bed trailer build. I found a utility bed from a Tacoma that was mounted onto the front half of a 3/4 ton Suburban frame. The suspension was the factory coil springs...

    Howlingmoon RTT parts ***Update***

    So one of the stupid little plastic ball sockets for the tent extension broke off today. Anyone know if anyone stocks these or where to get a replacement? I have an email into Sierra Expeditions, but figured I'd as here also.

    Trailer spare tire location

    I can't decide where to mount my spare tire. It's a 285/75/16 to match my 100 series. My trailer is a tacoma sized utility bed mounted on a custom frame. My choices seem to in front of the bed, on a swing out to the rear, in the bed, and underneath the bed. I found a half a tire gate (the swing...

    Looking for a discussion thread, and I can't find it

    It was about building liftable racks for RTT's and why you should weld the cross bars to the lift arms, and instead bolt them on using brackets and/or heim joints.

    I don't see much 200 series here, any particular reason?

    Make sure to look for used LX570's. There are a lot more Lexus's on the road than Land Cruisers, and they seem to not hold their value as well for some reason.

    RTT mounting on frame w/ overhang

    Is there any reason NOT to build my RTT mounting frame a little bit wider than my tent? A few reason I am want to do this is my trailer is wider than the tent, so I will have some extra storage room on the frame, and the part of the tent that flips out will also be supported by about 6" of the...

    awning/awning rooms and wind limits

    What has everyones experience been with using your awning and awning rooms in the wind? We are supposed to go out this coming weekend, and I was planning on sleeping in the awning room, but the weather channel says winds 10-20 miles. I'm thinking it will hold, as it will be guyed down, but...
