Been working on a way to slide the SmittyBilt XL tent 14 inches to the side, and raise the tent an additional 14 inches to allow the Annex to work. My welding is not the best, but here is what we have working so far...

I moved mine back and right as far as I could. Now I just have to go camp and see how it does, I wanted to make room for future awning and or water pipe :)

So after about a 4 month wait for my trailer form Smittybilt due to new trailers with VINs I finally got to pick it up from @RyanHeller from Habitat Off-road. I only had a week till I was leaving on a 15 day vacation with it. I knew I did not have time to do any work to it other than cooking system and loading so I had Ryan do all the work for me. I had seen his video on YouTube and knew what I wanted to add. I went with the following: Electrical system that included battery and charging system (shore power charging and solar charging hook ups), interior and exterior lighting, USB ports front and back, power for fridge, tent riser struts, rear jack storage up front, propane tank and relocated spare tire carrier, Max coupler hitch and ARB 2500x2500 awning. The craftsmanship and work that Ryan did was top notch. Very professional and clean. Way better than I am capable of. Ryan was very helpful and professional to work with. The tent struts work awesome and I can do it all by myself with ease. I also need to thank @Tkhawk and @Hoologan for their help with the stove system. So after 4,500 miles, 8 states and 15 days I am very happy with the Scout. The only things I need to improve is a quick connect for the propane stove, the front wheel jack and I need to make a longer wire for my solar panel.

Yes, looks really great. We have the same stove setup, even the griddle. And yes a quick disconnect for the propane hose is really convenient.
BTW how are those silicone pots working for you?

They work great and save space. Just need to be sure the open flame does not contact the silicone. Easy clean up too.
