I just used this item flat, Refrigerator bar, enough room to put wash cloths and hand towels, put two side by side and made a nice temp shelf in the upper bath cabinet which really is rather tall and ours measures 13" wide. I'll take pictures next time I'm there but I'd rather find something that's' more permanent although this was amazingly secure. I hate to put holes into things [emoticon]

For steadying we use the Lynx wheel chocks to start, then add these: the BAL X-Tended X-Chock both sides, 4 Camco Stack Jacks and the original scissor jacks. You'd think that would be enough but it's not and NO I'm not asking for the world here! Just watch the coffee in the coffee pot slosh back and forth. I should take a video of that! Hey, not really complaining this is the best camping I've ever done!

I installed my fix to the outdoor kitchen this weekend...

This is the bracket attached to the angle. I used a grinder and ground down the ridge on the bracket so it would sit even on the angle.

Here is how I attached it to the door frame.

Fridge back and done, Only thing I wish I would have done different is take the fridge out BEFORE putting a bunch of drinks in it, it's heavy.

It is solid, the one on the other side is kind of loose so I have a piece of angle and everything ready for when it comes loose or I just get entergtic and do it before it breaks loose.

I also finally took the panel off of the back of the bunk house TV so I could attach cables to it. the panel was stapled on with about 10 staples! I've heard some say theirs had screws, I had to use my wide prybar to get it off without tearing the panel up. I'm either going to use velcro or maybe screws to put the panel back on so I can take it off again if needed. I don't know why the pics came out so grainy and blurry [emoticon]

With the panel off...

Alternating Corners:
In the Army they teach us to put down alternating corners on trailers. If you start with the front road side, you go to the back curb side next and then switch again. I dont know how true it is but i was told it would stread the load evenly over the trailer. I have been doing it for ten years and it always seemed to work, until now.

I also have about 7 pics of different things I've done to the trailer, how can I post them all without taking up four pages on the forum?

There is one more thing. For the past 3 trips I haven't been able to tune the main tv in to any channels. I didn't think much of it since we were in the middle if nowhere. Well today during my clean up I tried again at home. When we first brought the unit home I could pick up about 20 channels in my front yard. Today I couldn't get any. I had the power booster on, and I rotated the antenna in all 4 cardnal directions And could tune squat. The rear tv picked up a few, but not as many as it did before. Anyone else experience this? I have an apointment @ the dealers on the 19th, maybe I'll mention that to them.

Do you have a photobucket.com account or something equivalent? Could post a link to the pics that way.

Well we have been using the camper for 2 to 3 nights a week for the past 5 weeks and I assumed I would have some more issues to report but no. Everything has held together as it should. My biggest gripe is the crappy velcro on the curtains. I feel like it is going to rip off the curtain every time I use them.

Thanks for sharing the pics! I see the outdoor shower and how you have it setup. Seems like a great option. I had forgotten that the 31BHPR has the two slideouts and that they form a nice cubby hole there. When the kids were young we'd wash their hair outside. In the summer heat it wasn't ever a problem, was cold but refreshing!
