It looks like they hang down a couple inches below the rear bumper. That part of the trailer is the part that normally hits on rock and things. Drops offs like on Rose Garden hill will crush them, Carvacre they would be gone in the first two hundred yards and John Bull. Any place the trailer...
Take it off, they are junk. Design something that goes through the bumper and drops. Any serious trails those will get ripped off. Heck half of them get torn off on city streets.. Sorry, never have like them on any trailer. Your rear bumper is going to drag, normally on rocks that stick up...
I am designing one a little wider in the box area, a less angled top, that may, and I repeat may, flip open to house a roof top tent. With access from inside the trailer to the tent. I am also working on a four sided pop up. Wanting to do all this with aluminum. The next one will have the...
Your never done zuk, trust me. I spent the whole day putting a dish tv with tailgater system in. New gas struts, mounted roto pax on the passenger fender. Tomorrow making a new front wheel with a tube tire. Now I have decided I need more 12 volt outlets. I also knocked a hole in my water...
Plastic mart make pretty good tanks, used by the RV industry. I would stay away from the PVC. It breaks easily and can freeze and destroy your system. I went to stainless hoses in my trailers, with metal nipples through the floor. Still can break when frozen but not as likely.
Great to see your post sir!! Wheeling around, you need to slow down!! lol. If you have problems with the Dexter stuff, let me know, I will see if I can help. Glad to hear you are feeling better. Keep doing what you can, do not over do it. Have a great weekend.
Oh it looks like eers are...
I have had several PM's from him. He is hanging in there. Tough surgery. A lot of work done. The pain gets worse a couple of days after the surgery as the nerve blocks wear off. Keep posting he needs the support.
It truly is mind over matter Sam. Just keep doing what they tell you and more if you can. I had bi lateral knee replacement a year ago March, walked out on my own, never used a cain or walker, was back wheeling in less than three weeks. I think yours will take more rehab, due to all the...
I have actually contacted Chalet about purchasing a roof, for a custom one I was thinking about making. Too proud of them for my blood. I think for normal camping you will very happy with it. My first one was just fantastic, in perfect condition when I bought. Only sold it because we had 4...
Depends on what off road is. Parks, fire roads, dirt roads the frame on the Chalet is more than adequate. Would I pull it on the Rubicon, John Bull or others no. Would I pull it over Imogene pass, most likely, with no damage.
The good part about it is it has a box tubing frame, so it can...
I have owned two Chalets, fantastic little trailer. I normally stop and talk to anyone I see pulling one. I have heard complaints on the Aliner regarding the tongue several times, but had been repaired. The Aliner comes with the Dexter Torflex, the Chalet standard springs and axle. The off...
I can order it for you, not sure what it would cost, give me the width and length. It would save a lot of weight, can be ordered in gray or bright white. My guess is less than 100 bucks, but not sure. It could be shipped in one of those cardboard concrete tube/foundation things. It takes a...
Are there any RV manufacturers in the area. I was able to order just the fiberglass sheet from Eclipse. Very flexible and strong. I ruined mine as I tried to put it on with hatch on.
Well I bought an aluminum spool gun, and am currently designing one that will be a little wider, a little taller in front, and may be bolted together upper. All aluminum frame, more water, more storage. If it goes as planned will be a winter project to. Eclipse RV asked for me to design it...
My guess is there is a greater chance of Jello freezing over before Zuk sells it. So much work and attention to detail is hard to just send down the road. Time for you guys to build your own, it's just like building a small house to me. Except more to it. lol
I must say I am one that vouched for Sierra. I have no idea what the problem is, but I am very disappointed in reading these things week after week. No more positive, patience from me. I hope he gets it together. People all work hard for their money, and building these things becomes almost...
It does not look like a Dexter from the angle that is shown. Alko used to be a lot larger. But if you can find the manufacturer of the axle it will be much cheaper than going through Schutt, as they will be ordering them from the manufacturer to sell to you. It looks like it will be a lot of...
It is either a Dexter TorFlex or Alko rubber ride axle, you should be able to get the hubs from them I would think. Or you can change the axle out to one with the drop and hubs you want. I would not remove what has proven to be the world wide standard for military trailers.
I want to see more Red, very depressed the tables and stove are not red. Okay, I am teasing, but you can never have too much red.
I love the truck, the trailer. I just needs a big Husker logo on it somewhere.
Really looks good all together, hope you enjoy the heck out of it.
