    *Closed* HIlift group buy

    It seems that the base would work well for 4x4 applications as well. It could be made to be REAL stable with some 4x4's that were 24" or whatever length you need. The chain links & ratchet straps being able to be secured to the base is also a bonus. At least IMHO anyways.

    Bruder Expedition Campers

    I think it is super cool. Super expensive, but super cool. Entire trailer can be raised or lowered via your smart phone & also tilted to either side if on unlevel ground. Watch the video's, it shows this.

    Hard sided adventure camper recommendations

    Lololololololololololololol !!! I get 8-10 mpg all the time. Towing, empty, light right foot or not. G-56 was avail in 07' & 08' model years. 2005/6 was the NV 5600 (i think). We LOVE our Power Wagon. Mine has the 5.7L Hemi & 345 hp. But with the G-56 & 4.56 axle gears, it is geared like a...

    Anybody use a Cabela's Pro Angler.........

    I am no electrical expert by any means but i think the charger splits/bumps up the amps internally ? I have had mine plugged in all winter to a 15 amp circuit, that also runs my entire garage, with no issues. I have one as well. Bought new. $189---on sale for $150---$20 instant off coupon from...

    Water filtration system help

    If you are vehicle camping & got room, these are awesome. Pick your size. Fill it & it will filter while you are doing other things. Top stores inside the bottom (or vise/versa). They are often used by emergency management after a disaster...

    How much water is enough?

    As much as you can fit/store & comfortably tow. If you run out, one of these could save the day, if you can fit one in your vehicle/trailer/gear. http://www.berkeyfilters.com/?gclid=CLfA0J-5ncwCFcNkhgodwEUPpA

    Hard sided adventure camper recommendations

    We also have a 2016 AR One Extreme. It is not very "Extreme" IMHO but we are happy with it. It is NOT an off-road trailer IMHO, but with the ground clearance it has, it will allow us to get "off the beaten path" for sure, as long as you go slow, which is all we wanted. I reinforced the seating...

    SOLD: Odyssey Ultimizer OMAX-50A Battery Charger (perfect for Diehard Platinum users)

    Curious as to why your getting rid of it ? I am pretty sure you can't even buy them in Ca anymore. They are a good unit. I have the triple bank 50a charger.

    Ideas for lid support?

    That would work i'm sure. What about 2 or 4 of these: http://www.campingworld.com/shopping/item/gas-prop-20in-120lbs/49810 A piece of wood, cut to fit, it while it is fully extended, would work to ensure a no-close.

    Reality of cargo trailers off road?

    My perspective & .02 Cents: The reality is (at least to me), off-raod trailers are expensive, which is why many can't afford them & build their own. I am one of the people who can't quite afford one or justify spending 12-20k on one. (from my wife: no way are we spending 12-20k & still be...

    Sounds like you narrowed it down to aluminum. I guess now is a good time to add aluminum to the list of things you can weld. If not, then buy the material, cut it to your specs to save money & then pay someone to weld it for you.

    M116A1 hydraulic tool trailer - good platform?

    I think this is an AWESOME platform to start with. Many issues are already taken care of because it is a military trailer & what it was designed for. Pat, yours is OUTSTANDING !

    Burley_Industries prototype expedition trailer

    I think this is a FANTASTIC build !!! Are you planning on making these a business ? (Burley Industries) or was that just a play on words ? Question: Would it have been feasible to make the lid rack tall enough to put the spare tire on it, under the RTT, or would it become too heavy to lift...

    2016 Tacoma Camping Platform Build

    Thanks. I think there is enough room under the slide to fit our folding table & chairs. Those 2 black handles have since been removed. On the tailgate are the 2 adjustable legs for heavy loads @ full extension. Not fancy but it works well so far.

    Time for a build M1101!!!

    Everybody has their own ideas. What about making a top for it so you can raise the interior height ? Same issue i have with the 82 qt & 50 qt ARB fridges i have. Most all trailers were not tall enough. We ended up going a different route for now but i still want to get one of these trailers. I...
