    Off-Road Trailer Build - Pump Trailer Transformation

    I ordered a 270 awning with all walls from Overland Vehicle Systems in early March to put in my trailer before our big road to Montana, Idaho, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico. At the time of ordering they told me that I'd have it in early May, but it ended up showing up 2 days after we left for our...

    M116A2 that can grill a cow... Build !!

    Thanks for the feedback! I've seen those but wasn't sure how well they worked, especially since my tanks are laying flat (only about 8 inches difference from empty to full). I was thinking sight glad might be best but would rather not penetrate the tank again.

    Off-Road Trailer Build - Pump Trailer Transformation

    Picked up a shower enclosure to add to the trailer before our big trip. I didn't want the enclosure to open under my tent and in front of a door so I built a telescoping mount that allows it to push out in front of the tent and in the perfect position for the shower connection.

    Off-Road Trailer Build - Pump Trailer Transformation

    Tough question, if I built another one I'd probably build it from scratch at this point but when I first started I was looking to build as cheap as possible and thought I'd be able to use the axle and a few of the existing pieces. I had someone else sand blast it for me, it was an absolute...

    New 270 Awning available.

    Get what hints? I don't care what you ordered 6 months out if you knew it was going to take that long then that's fine. They told me I'd have it the first of May when I ordered. Now they are saying it's going to be 6 weeks min later than that. If getting the hints means being happy and...

    New 270 Awning available.

    I ordered the OVS Nomadic 270 and walls for the trailer I built on March 23rd but they are telling me that it is going to be mid June before I get it... Not real happy about that because I have a huge trip planned for the end of June and when I ordered it, they told me it would be ready the...
