I’m just saying it can be done. Most trucks 20 years ago weren’t pre wired. They were borderline reckless without that automatic emergency braking though.

*All rangers can install a trailer brake controller. Some of them require a 45min install time and some of them 4 hours for a full wire job. I did my own and didn’t bother incorporating the automatic emergency braking.

My truck came with steel wheels all around but the spare is some weird black aluminum thing. It seems to be a regular tire but it’s marked 50mph max.

First clip, guy drops socket into engine.

I thought my stock non fx4 was boaty. Can’t imagine a fx4. and you don’t need fx4 for a locking rear axle. Got one on my XL truck.

Maybe if it has a bigger fuel tank.

Glossing over the “retarded” “rice” comments… saying a teardrop is an evolution of the rooftop tents implies you think teardrops occurred after rooftop tents. Recently that is.

I’m considering a twin bed casita.

They’ve got solid wood cabinets and fiberglass construction that tends not to leak so much. They hold their value much better than the Indiana brands. I’ve been an rv tech for a year now and wasn’t too interested in the shit that comes out of indiana. It’s all staples and glue. Things are...

26 for a two year old delux model with bathroom/AC/microwave etc.

I drilled it out to 3/8" I think. I used my fancy drill bits. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08X95SCT7/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Yes its secured somehow. Maybe one could twist it off if you could access it. I doubt you can access it though.

The old nut is still there, I used a longer bolt and went through it. There’s no seeing what you’re doing, all done by feel. I lost a socket in the frame rail if I remember correctly.

I just drilled straight through the old one and put a new nut on top I didn’t extract anything. There’s a spacer that comes with the sumo Springs that I could’ve not used But I like the stance it has with the spacers in.

I got the other side out with a weak impact. I let it hammer on the bolt for what felt like five minutes. I don’t think it helped but then I put my big impact on and it came out like nothing. I think the little impact loosened it without breaking it. I went back to the broke side and drilled...

I also get the loose motor mount feeling when coming to a stop and starting. Haven’t checked anything yet.

Does this qualify as tiny? I get about 15mpg @55mph.

One more reason to keep it small. Paying by the foot on the Madeline island ferry. 18mpg heading up, 13 coming back, all 55mph.

If that’s the case a trailer the same width as the truck could be almost eight feet taller than the truck or approximately 14’ tall.

So is that total front area of the trailer? That would be over 80sq ft. It can’t be. 55sq ft would be something like a teardrop.
