At this time Rally Point and the Member Map will also become an app-only feature for long-term security and stability. A few days after this maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    I installed my 270 awning mounts. I have an iKamper that opens to the side and you can’t tuck an awning up close to it without interference, so I designed and made mounts that telescope. They slide out 4”, utilize push button snaps to lock, a bolt to keep it from separating, and set screws to...

    DIY 270 telescoping awning mounts for rack with an iKamper RTT

    Finished! Primed, painted, and mounted. And surprisingly….they actually work great! They slide out 4” to allow the iKamper to open to the side. They are each strong enough to hold my body weight. They have a push button release, a safety bolt so they can’t come apart, and set screws to make...

    DIY 270 telescoping awning mounts for rack with an iKamper RTT

    Did a rough install of the mounts with awning. It was challenging to get the mounts paralell, level, and the awning mount holes drilled level. I still need to finish the locking mechanism and the set screws are in. Once I finalize everything I will paint them. They are so strong I can hang my...

    US Northwest North Idaho Moon Pass Day Trip June 10th 2023

    What kind of device do you have? Android or Apple? I know Apple, you would tap on the file and download, then open it and it will like gibberish. Then in the right top corner click the up arrow and “open in” and choose GAIA

    Switch panel experience?

    I don’t have direct experience with these type of switches, but I use a 4 way BlueSea switch panel that has fuses by each switch. My suggestion is just be mindful where you put it and what it controls. Think through your workflow. If it’s in the cab and only controls lights for driving, perfect...

Today I did the route and all the snow has melted so I wanted to find out if everyone would be more interested in...
