anyone have camping rigs?
 
just want to see how many others have cool campers / trailers , even inbox tents etc.. heres mine, 1980 tent trailer got it for 400$ 2 years ago, scince then i have done a LOA swap on it, and extended shackels, got about 5" of lift on it. i have bedlined the outside to protect from weather elements. inside is mint. has 2 queen size beds and a double bed. 2 burner stove sink, water tank lots of storage and the stove/ sink swivels out on a hinge so you can cook outside with it. this summer i plan on putting 3" blocks under the springs and finding the tallest tire to put on any 4x100 rim. im thinking a 15" rim with 235 75 15's. i also want to reinforce the underside of the roof so i can mount a roof rack and basket on top so i can carry some extra stuff on there without putting it all in my truck.

last summer (lots of mods missing from my truck i did after these pics) haa

Yup. I've got two slide-ins. This is the closest I have to a picture of it. lol. We stopped using the F150 that it was in there, and put it in that red F250 in the background. Right now it's out for the winter, though.

No pics of the 2nd one, but it's an older one that was gutted. It needs a new floor put on, so one of my buddies just gave it to me.

this summer i plan on doing a ranger axle swap onto my trailer, so i can get the ranger 5 bolt pattern under there as well as 3-4" more lift. throw on a pair of ranger rims and some 31's. and ill be a happy guy. lol

so next plan for my trailer.. i have 15x7 summer rims from my civic that i will not be selling with the car..with 4x100 bolt pattern (same as trailer pattern) and ill be getting new tires for my truck soon.. so the plan is to mount 3 of my current 31" km2s on 3 15" civic rims (3rd for spare) lift my trailer another 3-4" and throw the 31"s on!!! then add a roof rack on the top of the trailer for spare tire, and extra stuff i dont want in the bed of the truck =) should be pretty sweet!

I use the Ranger for local trips and the Fleetwood in the background for the longer trips. The Ranger will be getting a major re-do this year. I will be adding a V8 and four wheel drive with a lift and big tires. Both the interior and the paint will be custom.
