    On and Off?

    I'm sure this has been asked a thousand times but here goes anyway. We are thinking about moving away from, or for different adventures, our teardrop to a FWC hawk popup. Currently we drop our teardrop at a campsite and take our Tundra or dirt bikes and 4 wheeler further into the wilderness...

    ARB Fridge cord replacement

    I am looking for another 12 volt power cord for my newer ARB 63qt fridge so I can use an anderson connector with it when it is in my truck. I don't want to cut up the original cord since I use the cig lighter plug in my camper. I see them on amazon but they are rather expensive. Wondering if...

    I'm getting ready to install a second battery in my Tundra to run my fridge and a few other odds and ends. The battery will be under the bed on a mount I am building out of steel galvanized slotted angle from Home Depot. it certainly won't be the most elegant battery mount around but it will...

    Joining aluminum without welding?

    I am in the very early concept stages of building a slide in camper for my Tundra. Mostly because there doesn't seem to be very many options out there as far as weight and of course cost are concerned. I would like to build a semi traditional looking cab over slide in camper framed and skinned...

    Second Battery 2012 Tundra double cab trouble

    I've been wanting a second battery to power my ARB fridge since I bought my Tundra. Unfortunately there isn't any space under the hood without relocating the washer fluid and power steering reservoirs which look like more of a PITA than I want to deal with, although that option isn't totally...

    Building insulated cover for ARB Fridge

    I have a 63 QT ARB fridge. I am in the preliminary stages of making an insulated cover for it. Actually my mother, who is an amazing seamstress will be doing the heavy lifting of putting this together for me. I was planning on making the exterior out of white or very light 1000D Cordura...

    Battery box / pack question

    I have an ARB 63 fridge that I would like to run off an AUX battery in my Tundra. I was thinking about doing a dual battery setup for the truck but I haven't found a good place to put the extra battery and I'm not all that keen on fabing something and cutting holes in my new truck to run wires...

    Little Guy Teardrop lifted

    I have a couple of posts here about the Little Guy 6 Wide sport that we bought a couple years back. After a few summers of use the wheels in my head were turning about what to do with it to make a little more robust and useful for the places we like to go. It's weakest links for our use were...

    House battery getting fully charged?

    I bought a used LG camper last year. It has electrical system with shore power and a group 31 battery maintenance free Energizer battery which the previous owner said was about 2 years old. He said the trailer connection did not have a charger and neither did the shore power and that he just...

    ARB Fridge cart?

    Just got my ARB 50 QT. I'm wondering if anyone has found a simple luggage cart or similar to move it around singlehandedly. I can lift it and move it around but having some wheels would be really nice to get it out to the truck.

    Teardrop mattress solution

    We have a LG 6 wide and are looking for a new mattress solution. We have the stock 4" hard foam folding mattress that came with it and a 3" memory foam topper on top of that to soften it up. Neither my better half or I like the setup, generally tossing and turning and not getting the best...

    FJ New Tow Vehicle + Little Guy

    After picking up our Little Guy 6 wide sport camper we quickly decided we would need a beefier tow vehicle. The 2000 4Runner could do the job but it had to work pretty hard to keep its speed up, especially in the mountains. We test drove quite a few newer 4Runners of various years but decided...

    Propex Heater install questions

    My Propex HS2211 just arrived today. I'm working on the install in my Little Guy Sport 6 Wide. (pictures to come as the project progresses) This model can mount vertically and my plan is to attach it to the back wall of the galley and duct it into the camper. Ducting the actual heat seems...

    Little Guy Modification

    Has anyone ever modified a Little Guy teardrop for off road use. I know they make one and I know there are better purpose built off road teardrops out there but their prices are high and for a first foray into this I just can't justify a $15-20k outlay. I have seen a handful of Little Guy 5...
