    Need coupler ideas. Bought an m-100 with the lunette cut off.

    Not sure if it would be a match, but I was about to list a pintle for sale. Let me know if you're interested. When I used it briefly, I didn't really notice the noise, and the adjustable hitch I used between 2 lift heights. It was perfectly adjustable. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk

    Lid revision, attachment and paint After we got back from Yellowstone I vowed I would get the lid done so i would have to use a tarp ever again. The new version of the lid was pre-bent on the edges to allow a lip for the lid to sit on the tub, and also cut on the long seam instead of the short...

    Raising the Roof....top tent. Pics from Yellowstone. Towed great to Yellowstone! The actuators worked great with the harbor freight tongue box that was quickly thrown together with some actuator and light switches. Finally a Basecamp to be proud of! Rained a bit but all and all was a...

    Well the deadline I had came and went so we had to take the trip to Yellowstone without the lid. I had talked to my bender and they agreed to make a new lid for me. We decided on a new layout and a few different bends. They took too long to get the lid done as it wasn't priority due to the fact...

    Actuators and lid design After our trip to Blackridge, i wanted to get the lift and lid dialed in. I always planned for actuators and a lid. I wanted an internal actuator setup. A pretty stealth look and eventually i would get there. Some quick sketches and dims on the whiteboard table...

    Rack for Tepui and the maiden voyage! Some might be wondering what the poles are, standing upright in the trailer tub. Those are the tubes for the integrated rack. I am doing a less conventional rack that mounts on the inside of the trailer. I haven't seen it dont this way and wanted to see how...

    Fenders! In between the tailgate fab work, i decided i was in need of some fenders so decided to test my skills and attempt make some. Its was a pretty simple design, with only a flat top and rear guard. I used a tube bender and pretty much eyeballed the bends to a degree. Used a level...

    New tailgate! Decided to re-do the tailgate to make it straight with no dents, and also fit a little better to the rear that was just a tad off of square due to the removal. A simple frame that was a lot more square than the original. Marking the frame and drilling some holes to attach...

    Once i got the trailer to this point I started to dig a little deeper and examine the components. I didn't like my tailgate as much as there was a lot of dents and damage to it. It was a little flimsy even with the reinforcements i put on. So I decided to make a new tailgate. it was the same...
