    New/old trailer build 1966 Apache Raven tent trailer

    I thought about going from the edge of the bunk to the frame and I think it would work ok as long as the trailer is stable. I was initially just going to extend the factory supports but they just seem to flimsy for me. I actually thought about making fold down jack screws using thread stock and...

    Man; that one is rough! but i've seen some decent Apache's pop up recently for fair prices. At least start with one that has the tent. That's the expensive part! This one is on the higher end of what I would pay but it's complete! http://seattle.craigslist.org/sno/rvs/3303845710.html

    Thanks guys; glad you approve so far! Expo junkie: Thanks and I hope to see your project soon, as far as things I would change, not yet. I think I am building this at a pace that allows me to make changes to my design before I get to it.

    Wasn't planning on buying any of this stuff, all of it was kept in the hangar where my office is and I always use them. But they told me last week it was all going away and I could have the lot for 300.00, kind of hard to pass that deal up!
