    Are you coming from a tent camping background? We are moving up from a Jumping Jack through backpacking style activities.

    DIY Arduino & Raspberry Pi Security System

    Like the concept. Just started looking at a similar system last week at the OE show. I have also been looking at the parts to get something setup. However, I am not a computer person and have no background in this field (outside of working at Atari in the 70's). It needs a longer range with a...

    Anyone lift a tent trailer?

    I lifted my Jumping Jack tent trailer so I could put a 30 gallon water tank under it also for some light off road travel. It has a very low center of gravity even with the six inch lift.

    So, we were at the Expo today doing some shopping. Snagged a Dometic 38 L refer for $300 off and picked up a new device called Larry Alert. This is a wifi alarm system the tells you with pics on your smartphone when someone is messing with your rig. I worry more about my rig at the market than I...

    This is great news! The road trip is worth it. Of the three builders near me, I chose the furthest one. 11 hours away.

    I don't think I will ever think of everything I want and then I wouldn't be able to afford it. Here are a couple of things: I have having solar and am putting it in after I pick up the trailer but I need the wire run through the roof in a watertight method. I'm also installing left and right...

    I've been moved back twice, both for very good reasons. One I can tell you, I've added the swing out bumper and it will take Michael an extra week to build which messed up his work schedule. I have two other custom things being done which takes time. I only want to do this once and want to get...

    T@G Outback teardrop Trailers

    I really like the t@g group of trailers but didn't even consider buying one. Yes, we have a trailer but we like rustic if you get my meaning.

    ******** Move?

    We'll park at the trailheads but not camp. I try to take up as little space as possible too. Going during the week helps, most times we're there by ourselves.

    Wheel Spacers

    My friend has a jeep liberty and he runs spacers because the center holes are too small to go over the hubs. I have a 4Runner and it seems easier to run spacers with the proper metric thread pitch for my wheels than replacing the standard hub lugs. This is for Dexter axles.

    Is the pneumatic one they supply that bad? I think the pictured jockey wheel is an XO by ark. There is a thread about them on here.

    I have matching wheels. If you think of it this way, I have one spare under my 4runner. If I get a puncture, I have a spare, if I get two, I would use one of my trailer wheels and go get my tire fixed. I do travel a lot in the Southwest and I do keep track where I can get my tires fixed if need...

    All I know is that we are super stoked that we have this option again. We are getting the swing out with the sink and cutting board without the spare tire attachment. I will be adding extra backup lights and a trasharoo. A shoutout to @mizeide for being willing to build these, the timing is...

    I've did think about this but ordered the two fold down shelves instead. I having left and right lights next to them which will have both usb and Anderson outlets. Like the woodwork too, matches just fine. Did you install a heater in the front?
