Well technically speaking this is on a 5ver not a TT...but since we don't have a MODS subcategory for the 5ver forum... [emoticon] ....

Here is mine...

some additional pictures of the platform:

Easily carries 5+ bikes, can be used to haul geneators, outside refrigerator, or whatever the day/trip calls for.... Also have hookups to double tow if necessary.


Constructive disagreement is encouraged. It is how I/we learn!

Ian,

When I post in all red letters, I'm talking as a Moderator... when I post in black or blue, I'm talking as a member... Red kind of gets everyone's attention so when I have my Moderator hat on, I post in red... You also won't see my signature when I post as a Moderator... [emoticon]


BTW - some very nice modifications here - we certainly have a lot of talented members [image]

Spindeepster, that's a fantastic idea. I plan on stealing it and doing one myself! It occured to me after studying yours, I could do mine a little differantly and still accomplish the same thing. We generally use the campsite picnic table for meals but no place to set drinks and magazines while just hanging out in our lawn chairs. Kudos to you son [emoticon]


Unless tomorrow has been promised to you, you better get busy today.

Found this fireplace at a garage sale. It can be used with flames only or both heat & flames. We had a chair in the corner by the entry door we never used so out went the chair & in went the fireplace. Works & looks GREAT!!!

This isn't on the trailer but on the tow vehicle. I added a front receiver (useful for many things) and a bike rack. At Les Adams suggestion, I purchased a Swagman Twister bike rack and cut off about six inches from the post. This gets the bikes mostly out of the field of view.

More to follow!

In the last couple of weeks, I have done so many mods they would fill a page. I decided to just put them on my family website for all to see.

My Mods

Most my mods are for storage optimization. After doing so many and getting into almost ever inch of my new TT I feel I really know it better and will be able to maintain it better now. One thing I learned is that they don't know what a vacuum is at the factory. I bet I sucked out more then 2 lbs of sawdust, cutout scraps, trim, and extra screws, etc. from the areas they figure we will never see.
