The Lair

I don't know about that. That back one doesn't look pressure-treated.

 

Would make for a great video to be honest. “Bobbed Taco gives back to nature using wooden rack system”


2m+ youtube view guaranteed. 1m from @geekhouse23 alone

 

I'm on it.

 

Are you trying to follow body lines? Otherwise you could just create a loop at that spot that allows the door to open through it. Also will/have you box/ed the rear frame to take off stress from frame flex when combining the rear frame to the sliders via the rear bumper?

 

I like how we are going back to the original plan of this being a budget camping truck.

 

It's the circle of life~

 

Got the softopper ready for its new home.





Had to use a tarp for the first time in years

 

I finally got a chance to open this tent and lay in it. It’s the absolute perfect size for 1 person.

 

Sending this to the wife.

 

I like the collapsible latter.

 

I really prefer the former over the latter

 

I’m glad my genius wasn’t missed

 

Oh. Ok. You got one.

 

Genius is a little exaggerated. C’mon man

 

Jaime, I speak like half of a language. You’ve got at least 2 under your belt. If anyone is the genius here, it’s you.

 

Relax Randall. I wasn’t about to go pull up the dead toob dawrz diy thread...... crisis everted

 

Here is my sweet drawing of what I'll be doing with the bed. It's all tube, I just used different colors to differentiate in the drawing.

Red = bolted to the bed bolts
Green = bed bar
Orange = tube typing bed bars to frame tube
Blue = bedside sliders. I'll cut two holes in the bed on each side and pass tube through and add a 'slider' on the outside. These will be on quick disconnects for ease of disassembly in the future.

And there will obviously be two bed bars, but this was easier to illustrate.

 

I think I'd just bring the orange lines straight up. If they're supported on the bed bolts, I think stretching it to the bed rails is just wasting space. Unless you used it as a hilift mount or something useful. Unless you're using the bedrails as a sort of quasi-triangulation for the slider sections.
