GoFastCamper GFC Mods, Tips, and Tricks thread.

There is no bedrail on the front - and the GFC mounting brackets are in the way on the sides. Unless I'm missing something.

 

Subscribed- there are some great ideas in here! GFC # 240

 

2nd gens come stock with a front bedrail, and you can buy the same part to add one to a 3rd gen.

 

Yota, what do you think about a future table of contents (with links) in your original post?

 

They wouldn't be in the way on the front. But certainly are on the sides -where I had prviously mounted the waterport.

 

Added the front bed rail part number to my post!

 

Just don't mix up the chain lube with any of the other 3. Rock and Roll doesn't make for good shampoo.

 

I think im going to try to find the unsealed latches like the earlier GFC versions. Mine came sealed, so I have no way of locking them like @ace7196 did. I am just going to run them on the rear of the camper.

 

If you are anywhere around Utah, look for SCC Slick chain lube. It will change your life. I don't know what's in it, but that stuff is magic. Keeps the hain super clean, and after long dusty UT rides, you can just wipe off the chain with a rag and almost looks brand new.

better yet: they sell it online now. It's a little steep, but it'll last you a super long time.

If you guys like chain wax, try Wend Wax, its a local company to me and they are doing really well. Super easy to apply.

 

Ehhhhh.... not to be a dick but I seem to be a bit busier than @doording was, to be honest I REALLY doubt I could keep up on it like he did, there’s times I don’t get to TW for a week.

That said I’ll give it a try and see what I can do. I’d like to help the gfc community if I can. What are you looking for? Links to ideas? Or people’s builds?

 

Just don’t leave us like he did!

 

That i can do, or rather not do... probably.

 

I got some I’d be willing to trade for your sealed ones. Or sell?

 

Im game to trade, I'm guessing you got the unsealed ones?

 

@ace7196 What is the scoop with your latch jammers? I noticed you said its possible to lock yourself in, but also that you can pry them open to get out. Can you latch them closed from the inside?

 

So what do your latch hammers do? I have been latching myself in and just reaching down from the tent to pop them loose. Do they prevent someone from opening them when you’re inside?

 

Ok, I updated the second post to have links to the 4 builds/ ideas I've see posted so far in this thread. Anything added let me know and I'll add as required.

 

Completely understood. As the thread “ages”, even just a list of links to the top 5 or 10 mods would be great.

 

If everyone keeps all their mods in one post like @ace7196 did, and not have them all spread out, it should help clean it up a ton. Maybe just put a note in the first post to keep all your mods in one post? Then if you want to link them, you only have to link that post.
