    M-214?

    Will be starting on the deck when it dries up. Also will be adding hooks around the top on the sides and rear for tarp awnings. Running water is beginning to cross my mind too but.. The floods give 100'+ swath of light around this thing. Thats pretty sweet. Theyre 18w 6led 12/24v 1350(?) lumen...

    M146 RV Conversion

    Im looking at building a rack on the front of mine. Tool boxes, water/fuel cans, batteries, poles for the awning(coming soon), 100lb lp bottle,and now im pondering a couple water tanks. May rig a shower on the fold down deck. Being a 5th wheel, you may not have alot of space for a full rack...

    5 ton lockout hubs

    Oh im not asking... im not convinced that theyd be worth it for my usage. It tends to sit around alot and when i do need the front axle, i barely have time to hit the in/out valve..

    M146 RV Conversion

    Its interesting. I can see why the debate about keeping it. Is there any way you could fab a more permanent home for it? Maybe on the front wall?

    M-214?

    I havent done much. Dont have pics of quite everything either. Added strobes on the rear. Added led floods on both sides and rear. On the front, i put a couple 4" round grommet mount leds facing down. The strobes, rear floods, and side floods will be controlled from the truck. The floods are...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

Funny it all worked fine on this computer, set up the same way before the "upgrade". Ps, i never came close to suggesting u came to...

    M-214?

    Thanks Ray. Its not meant to be a traditional rv. Just a comfy, dry warm/cool place to sleep. Im following "off grid" fairly closely. I really like alot of what he's done there. Im working on incorporating his 12vsystem into mine. So far, all ive done is gather a couple batteries and have a...

    M-214?

    Its not an online or mail order place. It was over 10yrs ago since i checked. Just a small town parts house. I used to get big batteries for $30 out the door. Even if theyve gone up, its still better than $100+ per unit

    M-214?

    Got the 2nd spare carrier welded on tonight. Next i think ill start fabbing a rack for 3 water cans, 3-4 fuel cans, generator, and battery bank. I used to know where to get "blemish" batteries really cheap. Need to look back into that.

    M-214?

    So i bent the coupler mount portion of the tongue. It pulled about 12" to the drivers side. Not good. Figured itd be a simple trim, straighten, weld, and reinforce. Not so much. Ot tore the square tubing that the coupler/brake housing bolts to. Really not good. By the time i really saw what was...
