Unforgiven. I will run hard rubber under the straps or some heavy thin carpet or something when I mount it in place for the last time. I still have some work to do, I am about half way there now. So far I am happy with the out come. Glad to hear someone else is doing the same thing. From one...
Working toward that same thing. Mounting a step tank ( 50 gal ) where the cargo tool box was. Have lots of room to store cargo, but fuel is always harder to deal with. Also made it much less effort to get into and out of the driver seat than the stock running boards had been. Still carry the...
Done that a pile of times. Never any revs that ever hurt anything, just really gets me mad at me. aua Going to relocate the throttle handle to other side of stearing wheel. If I were to do it then, I just go out into the woods and shoot myself.
John,
Even though the the solar panels work quite well for me, remember that by the time you get them in and working good, your cost will be near that of a 12 volt alternator. The alternator is far more dependable. Just thinking out loud 2cents.
As you have found out, having a camper in a...
Hey, your starting to look good there! I like your camper, the square box cabover will look much better than mine does when done. Consider extending your exhaust up just a bit and out about 6" or so. You won't believe the effect, you will think you had put on a muffler. You may have to go a...
Gee 5tonBeachBuggy, you could build a truck that is a bit more butch! That has got to be one of the most Bad A$$ looking trucks posted. I just can imagine someone driving a little hybrid seeing that thing coming at them in their rear view mirror. In a word "WOW" [thumbzup]
WOW, looks like you are really going to town. :shock: Every camper is a bit different and will have to fit in its own way. I was lucky to have a friend that lifted my camper into the truch with a crain. I have found that your best friends for the project will be a good tape measure and a note...
Sorry to take so long to respond. I think it would be supper. Have talked to some others with M-35s or M109s to be sure to come also. If I am in the state and the fuel cost does not make me sell the truck to pay for the fuel to get there, I would love to come. Looking forward to it with great...
I have never had a problem. I did replace the fiberglass cover on tje A/C unit with a steel cover, but more from damage from snow. I live in a open area however, about the only thing I have to look out for is trees. I have considered a household window mount unit on the rear of the camper. I...
John,
Don't have much right now, but I will take some pics to help you out as I can. The unit stands about 12' 6" with the A/C unit. The C.B. antennas at the front of the camper is a height feeling rods. Do have a copy of side storage pics. This is the right rear. I put a camp chair in the...
:ditto: Camper works for me. The M-109 or S-280 box is much stronger than any camper, but will require quite a bit of work to really make it work as you would want. However a camper is a quick and durty way to get an unit with all the needs in place as a slam dunk. It has the room you need, and...
