    Rodger's M109 camper & roof rack

    I bought the tie hooks, square tube steel & expended steel. I had the landing mat already. The work was a partial trade of a motorhome I sold, so the price is not easy to figure out. Roughly: Steel $350. Spray paint $60. Labor was three or four days, by someone who had made a similar rack...

    Rodger's M109 camper & roof rack

    Hello All I have wanted to post pictures of my M109 camper roof rack for a while. The guy who built it is usually in central New Mexico. If you want one, I can pass your name & number on to him. The space near the center is for a roof vent, swamp cooler or air conditioner. You will also see...

    Has anyone installed an MRAP air conditioner?

    I am thinking about putting an MPAP air conditioner on my M109A3 Monsterhome. Does anyone have any experience with the MRAP AC units? It would have to go on the roof. Thank you Rodger

    How does slime balance a tire ?

    The MRAP tires with run-flat beadlocks (like mine) have a sticky material inside that might catch and hold golf balls The more I think about it, the more I think I will see if the local tire shops or truck service shops can balance them.

    How does slime balance a tire ?

    Inside some of the MRAP tires there is a tar-like stuff, mine have it, that the balancing beads stick to and then can not move. It seems to come with the run flat- bead lock. I think it is there to seal holes, but do not know. Rodger

    How does slime balance a tire ?

    Hello All I just put MRAP tires on my M109. The vibration at 35 mph is amazing. I have been told that a half gallon of slime in each front will fix it. Can anyone explain how slime balances tires? I am happier when I know how things work. Except for the vibration, tires are great. Thank...
