Hello all
I have a little homemade trailer that I would like to install lift assistance for the top. The gas strut mounting placement, length, lift strength has me a bit confused/concrerned I cam across this bed lift from Rockler...
Sorry to drag this out but I did put on 2" adapters from an ebay seller, $75 for two. Solid so far, they do stick out about 1.5 inches past the fenders but hey its Idaho we don' have laws. Should still have plenty of space if i ever go up in tire size and now I don't need a trailer spare!
I so appreciate you guys taking the time to post. My mechanical thinking and skill are something I'm developing so please let me know if you see fault in my thinking.
I"m going to post some photos to show my situation and thinking, hopefully it will help others as I can see this is a common...
Guys thank you for the responses. Just to be clear, the axle I have is the correct bolt pattern. The problem is the axle diameter is greater that the center hole on the Ravine. Ravine wheel is hub centric , axle is lug centric. The ravine wheel won't pass onto the axle. I was under the...
Hey Gents,
I have a home built trailer with 5 on 4.5 wheels that I am hoping to get a set of Jeep Ravine wheels on (also 5 on 4.5) . I currently have Ravines on my '06 Lj and would love to not carry a trailer spare. So i picked up a set of Ravines on CL and took them down to the local tire...
I can certainly fashion up a simple fairing. I Have one sitting on my Yakima Load Warrior next to me. I haven't put that much thought into wind loading. The tent itself will be strapped down to the cross bars when closed as the straps are apart of the closure system. And I imagine the cover I...
Well, here is what I came up with. Simple, cheap and rock solid. I made no peramantent changes to the Kamprite tent cot; I can bolt the legs right back on should the tent need to be removed and used on the ground. I utilized 3/4" galvanized pipe cut into two foot sections, a couple 90 degree...
Thank you for the replys. I'll check them out. My dad works in film and mentioned Speed-Rail which has Awsome connectors but I'm unsure if the size will work. I could modify the legs but I was hoping not to. I like having all options available should we have a trip where the tent needs to go...
Thank you. i dont know if it apperant in the pics but I ran two pipe racks down the length of the box and the tent ended up being wider than the box so the legs sit atop the rack. I have been trying to not drill more items into the box top to try and preserve some water resistance but i like...
Hello,
I have a simple home built trailer I purchased on CL for $300. Purchased mostly to tow my sons ATV but Ive been turning it into a camping trailer for our back county flyfishing trips. The box pulls right out when acess to utility is needed.
I purchased the poor mans roof top tent...
