I ran into this previously with a 1400lb+ palomino bronco 800 on a 2011 gmc sierra extended cab 1/2 ton. I was uncomfortable with the idea that I was over. With camper fully loaded I weighed the truck with each tire on the scale and all tires on the scale to confirm that none of my tires or my...

WOW! Not going to lie, pretty crazy idea. ... On another note, Im pretty sure you can put the 8' granby in a shortbed. I don't know for sure what model it is, no name on it. Looks to me like a granby or a fleet. He said he last had it on a 2010 extended silverado sitting on 2x6's with...

Can't find anything used out this way to fit our shortbox GMC 1500. An old 85 granby that seems in good shape just popped up online. It is 8' long floor pack and short overhang. I was thinking about picking it up to use between selling our bronco and picking up a used Hawk or Panther...

Yes, missing something.... Is this how you generate hot water at home? If not, then you must be subject to that same "western compulsion". :rolleyes: Exactly. Back to original post... my WIFE WANTS HOT WATER: proposing that I should tell her to sit a water bottle on a rock in the sun and wait...

Wife has requested some easy to use hot water. I tried to do this over the weekend, but didn't get enough heat. The zodi firepit kit looks like 2-3 loops of copper tubing that is placed in fire and water gravity feeds through it. The stovetop model is some coils in a box (how many?) and is...

The tailgate strap anchor has loads of strength (your tailgate can hold up several hundred pounds), but you need a stiff piece to go back to the tailgate hinge to take up the force pulling back. How about make a simple tailgate frame like this one and add taigate straps (only ~$14/ea at auto...

What do you know, I haven't seen the camper for months, but I spotted it tonight while out walking the dogs. I'll put a note in his mailbox the next time I am out that way. Also, I rebuilt two broken roof lifts into one working one for the pop-up tonight and should be back in business for a 1...

Hi, First Post. I have a 2011 pop-up truck camper that I enjoy, but that has had the roof lifting device fail twice in two years. The roof is super heavy and can't practically be lifted by hand. A fellow down the road had an ATC and I would often walk by it while out exercising the dogs and...
