  1. Here is how to attach an Image
  2. wonderful. Can I use some quality ratchet straps vs turn buckle? I already have a rubber mat in the bed of the truck.
  3. I was thinking the same thing, "man I would love to own that thing"
  4. Yep just use the links provided and it will get you VERY close.
  5. I think Georend is out of Iowa isn't he? Dynamic would be someone i would ask though.
  6. I had some rubber ones that just didn't last, I got sick of the issue so I fixed it with some good old wood.
  7. Mike, Should we leave the "donate" button the home page?
  8. deff need to consider that when packing up. I need to figure out some sort of mounting points for the camper as my truck doesn't have any. alright, Time for the next question. How / what do I need to mount this thing? I can't imagine that I need the torqtie stuff, unless I am missing something. The camper weights #1000, and I have seen many anchors tied into the bed vs the frame. Do I really need to spend a butt load to tie this thing down. Assuming ot get it home ~10 miles I can use some good quality ratchet straps.
  9. Liking this a lot. I used a couple 1x4's with holes drilled in it holding my batts down haha. I would much rather have what you did.
  10. Mike, We could build something pretty easy to do that haha. I have most of the code already for an arduino.
  11. Yea I am sick of setting up camp. I am too old for that stuff. Much prefer to sit around the fire, and when to does rain I prefer to play cards inside dry
  12. I am gonna pick it up after the snow we are getting tomrrow / mon/ and tues. I will update you at that point. I need to install the rest of the bolts that are supposed to hold my bed one, I think my truck only has 4 hahah. Really excited about this one. can't wait to start messing with it. You and I need to talk solar panels and talk me into more toys I shouldn't get. I am ready for the mopar1973man camping event.
  13. well I pulled the trigger on the camper. Really nice shape for being as old as I am. roof is perfect, inside is clean, everything works.
  14. I used to have that approach, looking at the fees this year I should have just done it again.
  15. Liberty Bella is what I am thinking. I ran her again today and I don't think I have the heart to sell her. she just purrs
  16. Yet my friend who worse for the county pays 67$ a month for 1000 dectuctible, has dental and vision. Why do I pay 4x as much and have such terrible coverage.... If we are going to mandate healthcare we need to follow the Canada model. I don't mind getting my physical on a folding chair.....
  17. Why not just leave all the wiring with the frame? It would be a lot easier, no point is screwing with it unless you need to.
  18. went out yesterday to start it and it was DED dead. Threw a charger on the beast and hopefully will let her run for a hour or so today. I need to get some new headlights in it, as I robbed them for my truck. Then finish painting it and get back to driving it or sell the thing.
  19. I would LOVE to know where he is finding the healthcare for under $100...... Sitting at $280 a month now ($4000 deductible), 28 healthy active non smoker with no history. I wonder if he is accepting mail in regards to this because I would love some of my money back. to be fair I did have the catastrophic plan last year which was $102 a month....but came with nothing other than a $7000 deductible and really didn't cover anything unless I was a drug user, alcoholic, or overweight. ( not joking)
  20. Replace your trans solenoids. That is almost always the issue with truck starting I 3rd type issues.
  21. go to the junkyard and get a passenger seat foam. You can slightly alter it and have it fit great. Thats what I did.
  22. You need EVERYTHING from the donor truck. You cannot make a 98-00 truck run a 01-02 motor or the other way around without everything. They have different wiring, different ecm flash, and different sensors. More involved than wiring changes. do you have a 98-00 truck or engine?
