I went to unload the Lance today but the winds are blowing at 35 mph. Like most 4x4 trucks, even with my smallest tires mounted the jacks don't reach the ground. I had to unload it in the shop. I spent yesterday modifying my cable jacks. I made them taller, stronger, and upgraded to .250 cable...

You have a real treasure there. It looks to be in good hands. Looking forward to seeing it re-born.

See the icons at the top of the box? Pick on the 10th one from the left. It will say insert image. It will open a new box that says drop image or click here. When you click on it, a dialog box will open that allows you to search through your computer files to select an image. Select the image...

Hey Paul! Like Hillbilly says, Desolate is the place to go for that bracket. Those guys have millions of offroad miles under their belts. They know obs fords inside and out. They build some ************ suspension kits for TTB.

I've been swamped with race stories that had to go out. Ready to make some more progress tomorrow.

Yes. You could do that. Just thinking you might want to have the flatbed insert with you all the time. I have seen some nice custom campers with good build designs. The "standard" wood frame with siding design is pretty cheesy. One reason I bought this cheap camper was to dissect it and learn...

I just came up with a flatbed design. It would be a big tray mounted to the frame. Inside the tray would be an insert. Put the insert in one way and it's a flatbed. Flip the insert over and it's a tray inside a tray. The camper would sit in a padded recess and be held down by normal spring...

The uhaul build is still going. That was always going to be a fully self contained live aboard. This will be the launch to my land yacht. My F250 was purchased to be a daily driver and to take to races. The small camper will find a home there when I get it on the road. I have a fabricator friend...

? My thoughts exactly.

Seabass: It's already past the duct tape stage. ? Chorky: I will keep it here. I already have too much stuff going online. ☕ Pat: I am 6' 4" tall. ? This guy is kinda weird, but he demonstrates how the walls are constructed. Like everything, it seems pretty easy (but it's not)...

Digging into the Lance. Finding lots of wood rot, and crappy construction. How do these even go down the road?

That's something that has always turned me off about slide-in campers. I want utility, not grandma's house on wheels.

What specs? It has an aftermarket intake, headers, an HEI distributor, and will run a serpentine belt. Fuel mileage will be the goal so a TBI is probably how I will go. The correct distributor drive gear needs to be bored to fit the 300 HEI distributor shaft. I need to modify the bore size of...

I have a pile of parts that need machining in order to put the 6'er together. They are at a friends who will do them when he gets a chance. (He works 2 jobs :oops:). I sold my pop-up to another Expo member. The issue I had was the mattress in the upper bunk. Because the top comes down, there...

The Uhaul is a complicated build that will take some time. I got this because I am tired of staying in hotels at the races. Hundreds of dollars for a place to sleep, and a toilet. This camper will pay for itself at the first race. The only downside is that I can't go to all the regular places...

Picked up an old Lance for cheap. Needs work. ;)

What have I done? I need help! My new $200 camper project. It has a swamp cooler.

The desert is crawling with these guys.

Right at home in RV parking. It takes up a spot and a half.

Used parts can hold many surprises. I pulled this centering pin out of the superduty springs I bought used. I've never seen one this bad.
