    Chinese Trailer - NJStar Explorer

    I was on alibaba the other day just perusing the "expedition" style campers. It's amazing what they build and charge for what you can get in China vs what you can get in North America. Sure quality may not be on par but for the price difference that's something I'd be willing to work with...

    Is the TRD 3" Suspension Lift Kit for a 2024 Tundra sufficient for an Alu cabin build?

    Why would you NEED to upgrade the suspension? Even if you maxed out your payload capacity, you wouldn't be rubbing tires or anything

    slide-on pop-up Awnings? waddya have?

    I have an OVS 270 awning. Gives tons of coverage. One of the best additions to my camper yet. Just takes longer to deploy and pack up than I'd like.

    INTERIOR living system for truck campers

    Do you have a ball park price? $500-$1000, $1000-$2000, $2000+? I quite like the idea especially since my truck has such a low payload capacity.

    DIY Fridge slide build - 1/16" aluminum angle iron strong enough?

    I may be wrong but... Arent the ratings on slides based on its weakest point- when they are fully extended? When closed the slides are much more ridgid, and one would never be driving around with the fridge extended. I just built a slide on 150# slides. My dometic cooler will be close to that...

    2000 Ford F450 7.3 Diesel 4x4 w/ Kodiak Camper and Garage $22,500

    I read that as more of a commentary on the market. Pre-covid vehicle pricing was significantly different. It's how she goes these days I guess

    Hummelator offroad teardrop trailer-vation

    The final Sega. Finished off the bed supports along the floor now that the flooring is finished. Builts a cabinet and shelf for the right side to provide storage and cover the electrical. Instead of staining, I used my torch to slightly burn the wood. Really brings out the grain depending on...

    Hummelator offroad teardrop trailer-vation

    I decided I want to do vinyl sheet flooring this time. I liked the idea of it being one peice and with it being glued down and caulked on the edge I won't have any dirt or dust beneath the flooring. Turned out ok. Not sure I was suppose to glue the entire thing. Some videos I watched said...

    The pipe above the conduit is being used as a couplin for where the furnace ducting runs through the panel. Return air at the bottom. Mounted aluminum angle on the walls to support a piece of plywood for the bed platform. Completed all the wiring.

    Hummelator offroad teardrop trailer-vation

    Figured out how to mount my batteries. the wood is for my bed platform. Upper electrical box is 120VAC and lower is 12VDC charger mounted and 120v outlet wired. I ran the power cable for the fridge through some energy chain I had left over from a job. Won't have any issues with damaging...

    Who's building the best 3/4 Ton/ 1 Ton Gas Truck these days!

    I can't attest to the best but I can attest to the worst. I have a 2020 gmc sierra 3500 6.6 gasser and have had tons of problems. Still less than 100,000 Km. Brakes have squeeled since new, had the bolts on the passenger side exhaust manifold broke off, some sort of solenoid in the tranny had to...
