The Lair

Your welds are looking better and better broheim. In for one of those TC decals. I need one for my cap window.

 

Do you pronounce it Bro-Heam or Bro-Hime?

I say Heam, but mostly I say Ham!

Did a few things today. Installed the awning, and mounted my tire holder in the bed.

Overall, I’m not super thrilled with it. The floor of the bed flexes easier than I thought, and it blocks about half of my rear view window. I threw a strap on which really helps with flex, but time will tell if it becomes an issue.

I may just ditch it and strap the tire to the side of the bed. That way it won’t crack the floor and it will suck it up against the wall more.

 

Randy didnt you have a thing designed for holding a tire, attached to the rear bumper?

 

Yeah I'm pretty sure it was made of pure beef and wouldn't bounce

 

That’s a genius idea. I should try and fab something up like that.

 

It actually bounced quite a bit, all swingouts do. But the difference is that bumper can take it.

 

Oof. Cold

 

Didnt it look something like this? Like really close? Like they might have been made by the same people?

 

That flex is adorable

Edit: jk we pretty much have the same back end

 

Damn, that sucks Randy! Why did I think it would be closer to the bed side on the mount!? I have an idea but it's too hair brained to bring up.

Edit - finally, someone bought the proper sized awning!

 

you could weld on another bar on the back that reaches the rail and put some t slot nuts in to anchor it instead of the strap maybe kind of sorta if ya wanted too haha doesn't fix the blind spot issue tho hahaha

 

Fucking hell that’s a good idea. I’m gonna try that. Thanks erik.

 

Maybe switch sides and put it behind the driver side....that'll impact your view less but it might not flow as well with your fridge unless you can swap that side too.

 

I want it fridge side so I can still sleep in the bed.

 

Right....how hard would it be to move the fridge?

 

Hard. It’s through bolted in like 6 places, and the power outlet is right there

 

Sounds like fart vent holes to me ....

 

In for the creepy memes

 

I hear you, Im just not paying attention. I am sorry if I offended you. Millennials...........

I want a damn HF coupon for my troubles
