Sprint the weekend out at Lazy Springs... about 20 miles East of Ft Myers Fl... an off road park for Jeeps,quads and dirt bikes... can not say enough about how well run this park is... good family fun... Galley in but not fully plumbed or wired... Diamond plate treads for the garage...

ordered a pair of those vents... thanks for the suggestion!

added roof vents (14"x14") in the garage area... basically the biggest ones that would fit between the roof ribs(supports)... Foam tape and 3-M 4200 to seal them up and fastened with a ton of 1/8" pop rivets... drops the temp inside signifficantly while baking in the S FL sun... Galley...

drain will be plumbed out thru the floor... on the hi setting it drops the temp 10 degrees in less than 10 minutes... so I think I will be using it on the low setting....BRRRRRR also adding some roof vents in the garage area to loose some of the heat from the metal roof

OK... AC is now in and mounted... tied to both th roof and the wall... NOw we are chillin! had some troubles when I tried getting the jeep into the garage wet and sandy... so they say a diamond is a girls best friend... tures out Jeeps like them too...

Will let you know...

here is one more looking thru the door from the garage into the living area The galley base cabinets will go along this wall with the micro wave hung up under the over hang of the bed... and a futon / coach will run along the other wall... in the galley cab will reside a small fridge /...

standing in the garage facing forward... bulkhead going in... inside the living area looking aft the AC will be mounted above the new door Herculiner on the floor... nice stuff... stinky but great sound deadening... quited the cab down dramatically!

when I change over the registration I will try again... what make is your awning? That will be my next project... by the way really sharp looking rig! and not just because you have a good looking JK trailing behind it!

bushpilot... no but I will take that aproach when I change over the reg... very productive weekend... new tires all the way around on fri and let me tell you, when in Hialeah if you really want to blow them minds of the tire guys... when you pick up your rig show up in a jeep on steroids and...

Great looking rig... you should start with a wish list of you want... figure out the weight and how you would distribute it. Then get you axle weights and figure out what you need... good luck with your build... post pics and let us share in your build.

So does anyone carry their coverage...? was told that they do not cover toters or for that matter any conversions...?

Coachnet just returned my application... they say they do not cover covered vehicles or Toters in general?

Thank you... she is coming along... I just signed up for coach net... just put six new tires on this week... but well worth the investment... where are u on the east coast?

First haul... only 2 hrs away... steady 65 MPH no problems... going! Great time wheeling at Lazy Springs off road park in south florida... tons of fun! AVTs and UTVs Jeep and other 4x4s... fantastic park... unfortunately threw a tread on the inside rear on the drivers side... I knew the...

here is a shot with the side panels up... and the roof ready for the roll panels

I ended up puting 1.25" of foilbacked foam into the roof before covering it with roll wave PVC roofing... it was flexible enough to roll down across the 45 dergee edges of the roof to the wall... and it is easily removable to add wiring for lighting and or speakers... and the walls got 3/4"...

killer project... looks great! I took a similar approach with my retired u haul... I ditched the bench seat for a pair of air rides and cut a large pass thru... good luck with your build... and keep the pictures coming!

Started packing out the interoir walls and added the insulation... basically 3/4" of foil faced panels... glued up and the pack out is ply ripped down so I have something to screw the finish panels too... hopefulyy I will get the loft / attic done tonight. Then I can work on the ceiling!

Overhead consol So the rainy weather has slowed down some of the progress... I did manage to get the patch installed on the FRP on the passanger side of the box... bought a piece from the UHAUL truck store online... pretty cheap... I did find an overhead consol from 4300 for cheap... had to...

I am actually going to set up the outdoor shower commonly found on traveltrailers and RVs on the garage side of my divider wall... so when the jeep is not in the garage you simply shower out in the garage... a fiberglass base pan with drainage thru the floor... very simple but should be...

weight certainly does add up... My U Haul is a simple weekned warrior hauler... back 16' is the garage for my 04' TJ (5000 LBS fueled up) and the front will be a futton small galley with the matress up over the cab. I do not think I am adding another 600 lbs in windows insulation paneling cabs...

So the door that came on her was plywood cr^p! and that just would not do... the guys at Diamond hooked me up big time... what a great company to deal with... Thank you for the fantastic service... New door with hardware...$430 and another $100 or so to get it to my door... two man job but...
