I'm heavy, with an Alu-Cab camper and Goose Gear cabinets. I misjudged an angle on a rocky section of the Back way to Crown King, got the front tire well up into the air and came back down hard onto a rock. It hit the slider step (with armor) square on the bottom, hard, the whole group heard it...
One thing that hasn’t been mentioned is how close your phone needs to be to the WeBoost interior antenna for maximum effectiveness. It works best if your phone is within a foot or less. We moved ours to the center dash where our phones are mounted and it is significantly stronger signal. Outside...
We have a simple submersible pump for showering, just drop it into a bucket or jerry. It would work in a pinch. How are you planning on showering? If it's anything more than gravity feed it could be dual purpose. Here's the one I opted for but there are plenty to choose from. We also have a...
It's outside your budget but Hest is the way to go. Buy once, cry once. A blow up air mattress is for people who want to sleep flat on the ground, just not right away.
1) The Shadow Awning is amazing. It's expensive but it's also the best one out there.
2) You'll need suspension upgrades. I'd do them before install.
3) Best to ask your installer, especially since you're getting a ModCap which is a different installation procedure.
4) Think about shower/toilet...
Got a couple of small but important projects done today. Installed an 813 Designs table mount under the bed to hold the Alu-Cab table securely out of the way yet way to get to once we make camp. It was an easy install and my first opportunity to use a rivnut tool to attach the mounting brackets...
As promised, I finally got a chance to edit a short video of one of the more fun sections of the trail up to Crown King. It was a great trail and the Gladiator did everything it was asked. Highly recommended! Turn on your sound to hear my wife's reaction to the big slide in the middle.
Went camping in the Bradshaw Mountains in Arizona. It was a great trip. The JT did great and the All-Cab was fantastic as usual for carrying everything in an organized manner and giving us a convenient place to sleep. We started in Wickenburg and made our way to the "Back way to Crown King"...
How are folks mounting their shower cube? Alu-cab makes a bracket that brings the shower cube parallel with the main part of the camper but I think I've seen some photos of the cube mounted directly to the camper with no bracket. This could potentially be less wind turbulence but would cause the...
We've had one on two different rigs and I'll be adding one to my current camper as well. We've tried a few different brands of shower tents over the years, including some awning styles of the original Quick Pitch, and unsurprisingly, the Alu-Cab shower cube just works the best. We haven't tried...
HF has one as mentioned. I bought this off Amazon. It's been great having extras everywhere.

They're just too big to keep in stock anywhere near a population center where space is at a premium. When mine came in at TinyRig, they would spend a fair amount of time moving all the new inventory out of the shop to start each day, then working on the couple the were building that week, then...
It's metal building we built into a house. We took a 6000 sq ft building and only skinned half of it, leaving the other half open and built a house under it up to the roof, so 3000 sq ft shop with a mezzanine and a 2900 sq ft house with a 1000 sq ft deck all under the same roof. Dark shot of my...
