Hope you are doing well. So I bought a new F250 regular cab long box today . I am very impressed with how rugged these trucks are built . was looking at the 150 but then it would need a lot of upgrades . So like you said throw on some good tires and go exploring with the 250. I was lucky and...

Th Thank You . I will get on it in the morning

So I am just installing the electrical system in my Gear trailer . this is my question . when installing the inverter there is a second ground lug . can this be hooked to the negative terminal ? I will give a run down of what I have so far . two T105 6V in series 12V right . this feeds and...

Buddy cold also try the Installgear also . you just cut the end off a store bought cable and strip back and plug in then tighten the Allen bolt . I have started buying my fuse blocks in this style ,saves some work . I think I will melt some solder on the end before I tighten it in though

Thanks for the info . I have started looking at the V8 . they have better towing and load capacity then the V6 . when I dig a little deeper it looks like the ecobust quickly loose there mileage advantage when under load or towing .

I visited the spaceKap web site the other day .I was able to download a PDF on the installation . the reason your Kap may be rocking is when you buy a new one it comes with a sub floor frame that you place on the bed of your truck before installing the Kap. Also they supply metal pockets that...

Hi your build turned out really nice . I am wondering do you know what the completed camper weight is ?? I am looking at buying a new F 150 4x4 reg cab 8 foot box ,it has the 2.7 ecoboost . the reason is I want to travel a lot and the gas mileage from this set up is real good like 25 mpg. My cap...

I really wish one of the owners of a JB 500 or 470 could set up something so the owners could share information and ideas . there may be 6 to 10 jb500 and a few 470 out there .I have been heavily modifying mine and throwing away lots of parts . Every time I do this i just keep thinking ,some one...

wow that looks great . funny my list of things done and in progress is almost identical to yours . what a great idea to pull off the stick paper and wipe on po;y , never thought of that . I had a broken back window ,so I eliminated it. I put a Byers storage box were the hot water tank was . Do...

That is Great , I did about 1,800 kilometers this past weekend . Again not doing what it is meant for , but the max hitch is a big improvement over a ball . they are so tight fitting that there is no slap or noise what so ever .

Wow the build and workmanship looks great . please post the finished and outfitted rig when you are done . If we are ever done !!

It is great to hear from someone with real experience with them . My comments are mostly made by feeling it and looking at the construction. I mean it is made from 3/8 plate steel and solid 2 inch bar stock, that is why I keep saying something else will break first,not the hitch . I will be...

I keep going back to look at your camper . It has to be one of the cleanest, simple and functional rigs I have seen . Again very nice set up. I can't believe now that I have a Spacekap how many I see on the road ,especially around the Toronto area . Yesterday I saw one called a Spacekap Super...

I became confused as the conversations were going back and forth between truck and trailer .the comment on Monday at 11:51 Refers to ( Those extenders ) This became Truck camper hitch extenders after my comment . If I had understood it was the truck ,I would not have made the comment .I have...

Well I apologize ,I did not mean to be insulting or mouthing off . I guess I have become confused as the comments are bouncing back and fourth between . Truck extender and trailer extender .I will attempt to follow closer and comment less in the future . I am here to lean , but would like to...

Well my wife will tell you the biggest advantage is, the passenger can get up and go pee every half hour without making the driver crazy .I know this is not legal but when you got a go you got a go. And the dog likes a walk through better as well. more sleeping options for her .

Yes I agree this is not a good formula to build a functional trailer . all we can do is buy or build the shortest trailer that can carry your gear ,and learn to live with it. But I guess I am not answering the question,sorry .

Well even if a boat trailer comes with an extender ,It is only to be used to launch the boat . You install it at the boat ramp so the boat and trailer go farther and deeper into the water . Used on Sail boats mostly . But what about the cost of not learning the first time ? no way you could talk...

Well I get that he is hard headed and stubborn like me . But think about the hanger bearing and U joint must be in the perfect spot or the drive shaft would have bent ,and he could not have continue driving . Ford has all the bases covered .
