Finished up a few JT projects for summer travel trips

Installed tube doors I got for Father’s Day

Tyger brand, good fit, solid built, heavy wall 1 1/2” OD steel tubing. Have had good luck with their front bumper, so gave them a go.

Taking the doors off to put the tube doors on lead to a doors storage problem. Decided to whip up a couple of rolling door storage racks.

Ingredients:
two harbor freight Dollies.
some scrap 1”x1”x1/8” wall steel tubing…about 2’ height and 29” wide.
cut up some old bed frame corners for the dolly feet, welded up everything, drilled and bolted with 3/8” x 1 1/4” bolts to the dollies.
five pool noodles.
two NRS straps.
scrap 2 ea 1”x3”x20” hardwood bumpers.

Finished up and installed the last bed brace for the house battery in the bed.
Installed the Alien Sunshade I bought for the front - really impressed with this product, it knocks down the UV‘s and doesn’t do hardly any movement at 80mph freedom tops off.

As soon as this miserable 100+ degree heat breaks, I’m heading to Northern Idaho with the boat to do a little fishing / JT exploring.
