    Help modifying my trailer, 12V, solar

    Quick answer, no they shouldn't interfere, even if both were charging PROVIDED you do go ahead and put a charge controller between that solar panel and your batteries.

    What's the right LIft and Tire Size for Gladiator Rubicon

    35's fit the stock wheels. They also fit without a lift with no rubbing but I like the look with a Mopar 2". The 35" spare fits in the original spot too. I have dual batteries, solar, Decked system, Ham, gmrs, etc. I have it setup to tow behind my RV so I can overland when out west. As for...

    What's the right LIft and Tire Size for Gladiator Rubicon

    I went Mopar 2.5" and 35"s. But mine is also a daily driver and 37"s have an increased risk of driveline issues. Others will say that I'm Chicken Little. I'm happy with my choices. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    Short Bed (5 foot) Camper Shell Setup Inspiration?

    With the Decked system you can stretch out diagonally (I'm 5'9" also) and be completely stealthy. But, what's really cool, with the $59 Walmart tailgate seat, you can get over 7' with the Decked drawers open if you don't need stealth that particular evening. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    Harbor Freight (type) Trailer Suspensions

    Thanks! I do have a spare tire as well as a hub. Suspension and axle have been fine for over three years now, but figured upgrading to 3500 wouldn't hurt anything but my wallet. And I'm on your very long thread at Jeep Forum. My posts start at #3022 Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    Harbor Freight (type) Trailer Suspensions

    We spoke on EP a few years ago. With your help I switched to the same wheel/tire combo as you. I'm now thinking of going to a 3500 lb axle. Can it be done by leaving the build intact and using jacks and jackstands? Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    Whynter 12v Fridge reviews? Alpicool?

    Bought my Whynter in 2009. Have run almost continously on 12V, in back of various vehicles and motorhomes ever since. I've had a smaller Alpicool for one year now and have no complaints. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    Mine came in the mail last week. Tested it for functionality but no cooking yet. A little flimsy but lightweight and fires right up. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
