    Wildernest for older full size

    Selling my Wildernest for full size pickup. It has served me many years, and many adventures, but it's time to downsize! Currently mounted on an 87 F350 4x4 (check out my old build thread for pics!) Had the canvas all replaced several years ago. Springs in good shape. Paint isn't pretty, and...

    I'm flattered! I love 'Nests, wish they were still made! Every time I deploy mine, I get half the camping area coming to look and ask about it! Glad to hear others are working to restore these awesome designed units! Now, just get out there and put it to its intended use!!! And post pics!

    Bricknose F-350/ Wildernest build

    If I remember, they gave me a cpl choices in color over the phone, but I told them I was looking for gray, so that's what we went with. I would imagine you could get color swatches to look at, they had fantastic customer service!

    My springs are still good, but I'm sure its just a matter of time. Mind if I ask how much it cost to have yours made?

    Bricknose F-350/ Wildernest build

    So far I have had no need for a rain fly. Haven't had it thru a monsoon, but had a pretty hard rain at one point for about an hour, the showers on and off, and had no water intrusion. Overall I have been really happy with the replacement! Now if I can just find a good sleeping mattress.......

    Round Off-road lights... What to do?

    I have one of the LED light bars I bought for my wifes SUV. Doesn't get used much, more for aesthetics, but it has been ok. Based on reviews I has seen, I pulled it apart and resealed the lens first due to several people saying theirs has started showing moisture inside the lens.

    Round Off-road lights... What to do?

    I have 4 of the Chinese knock-off HID's with the red ring, 2 spot, 2 flood. Have had them about 2 1/2 years, and have had no problems. They are insanely bright, and other than the red ring fading quickly, they still look good. Usually I'm a proponent of you get what you pay for, but these things...

    Trailer harness problems

    Biggest problem I see would be the inability to hook up to a standard 7 blade connector. I just keep the plugs coated in die electric grease, never have a problem!
