thx. very interesting. different world back then

thx for your comments. ordered thru amazon. this helps with buildout planning

have u thought about extending jack brkts all the way up as far as they can go? i would think that would give you a beefy location to mount to. there is good alum tube structure at the corner.

thx for the saltmade link. good idea. when i ordered my atc, i first ordered the jack brkts to go all the way to the top, and then later changed to std brkts. wish i left that alone. the taller brktry gives you lots of options.

ok, thx. do u like the chairs ??? and, or , buy again???

maybe a few more rivets or additional strapping or some type of support, to prevent this from happening again?

thx for the excellent report. nice to see u can change it up. we stayed up in bolinas (airbnb), a few years ago, and did a bunch of hiking in pt reyes nat'l seashore. its a fantastic place, with some nice beaches, great hikes out the point, views, elk, etc. you two would enjoy the scenery of pt...

hey there. much thx for the pics, and reasoning. i too have an ocelot, and mocked up the plywood sidewall profile in my basement, and am trying to come up with a buildout. u have given me some ideas. i am going to put a propex propane heater in, for its smaller size i am going to put my dometic...

i would also concur with the recommendations for not going with the model that extends past end of truck bed. you also get the benefit of not carrying around the weight of the tailgate. i have a 2015 gmc sierra, and was surprised at the weight of the tailgate. not insignificant. if you are in...

i found a large dolly in a light industrial area near my home. even took some of the boards off of it. started out with 5" wheels but found manuevering with them was a hassle. changed out to the casters that have 4 small wheels on a steel plate. i think these are intended to be put under car...

it looks to be the 1.5" square extrusion. thats the 15 series. i like the thinking behind it, and the L-trac in the interior. i am just starting to mock up some l-trac for my interior floor, and then will go up with some 1" square extrusion, 10 series, to fashion some boxes and shelving for...

i have the alu cab on an atc ocelot camper, in a 6.5' bed. the 2 mule brkts attach to jack brkts, and its a very solid install. this fall we had some rain, and i had to put awning away wet. at next camp i set awning up in the eve, and in the morning it was a nice sunny day, but i was in the...

yur dad had some great advice there. and good for u to follow. i should have met the fellow before first wife..... but found way to current partner, whom you dad would give me 2 thumbs up.

i ordered an ATC in 8/20 and added about 3 things between then and pickup in 3/21. no change order charge

after reading this, i would wait until as long as you can, before u submit the change order. u just might have another idea to change something, and it would be better to bundle.

i like the idea of water for fire suppression. i rolled into a FS campground last fall, a week after they started to allow camp fires. i set up camp, then realized the the fire ring coals were HOT. last occupant had just left and didnt put any water on fire/coals. and this was in an area...

maybe u can keep it and put it on your 'next' rig??

my 75L dometic is going to the front under window, for weight distribution. can be used as a seat. will build interior shelving around it on left and right. i carry a small cooler when camping, and throw in some drinks, etc. so dont have to get in the camper as much. i have a 1/2ton truck, so...

another vote for rocky mount swing away. rock solid. i put a receiver on my city/local driver, and it works great also.

thx ! if/when i put one back there it would be not connected. connect at camp.

maybe i will look into a custom box that i can hang off the jack brkts

nice combo. good luck with the sale. very similart to my rig/camper. mine is a 2015 gmc 1500, with an atc shell. i really like the alu cab awning also.

i have an atc shell. bought mule awning brackets from local fwc dealer, and let them install the awning and brackets. works great.

i have an atc shell on a full size gmc, with 6.5' bed. i figure with shell, battery, awning, solar panels, large dometic cooler, i come in just under 1000 lbs, and the truck handles it very well. i dont count the weight of the jacks, as they come off once home, and only used to get camper off...

good idea
