    1964 Trailblazer Chief Camper Build

    Got the counter poly'd this weekend, sink and stove mounted, and attached it in the camper.

    Wouldyou buy a house in Butte?

    I probably would just because its so affordable but my wife vetoed it years ago. Agree with the previous post about Anaconda though, great little town and also very affordable.

    1964 Trailblazer Chief Camper Build

    Got the holes cut for the sink and stove. Will probably work on the finish in the next week or so and hopefully get them both fully mounted and the counter in the camper.

    Multi Day Missouri Breaks/Ft.Peck - Summer Epic

    I got stuck somewhere near this red X, a huge thunderstorm rolled through about 8pm and then a bunch of cows churned up the road in front of the gate all night. Took me about 9 hours of digging, gathering branches, and hammering "borrowed" fence posts into the ground to winch off of the mud to...

    1964 Trailblazer Chief Camper Build

    Everyone just says air down the tire and re-inflate once its on. My lift location was on the frame not the axle. A few people have cut out or altered the panel on the front of the wheel well. I'd like to eventually put a timben suspension under the camper so hopefully its just a short term issue.

    1964 Trailblazer Chief Camper Build

    Cleaned the dirt and grime and any light rust off the rims and hubcaps and threw a quick coat of black on them before putting them on the camper. Major design flaw of the Trailblazer that I learned about while doing this, the wheels don't fit into the wheel well unless you deflate them some...

    Where to get steel?

    Title basically says it all, but here's a little more detail. I need to get some steel to fab a tire carrier for the back of my camper. I need something like 2 to 4 feet of 2x4 box and then something like 6 feet or so of 1.5" square or round. Where is a good place in the Bozeman area to get that?

    Correct its probably about 1.5-2" off center to the right, not a big deal, and as you noted since the door opens to the left your approach is maybe slightly to the right anyway. I just know I am going to see the misalignment every time I look at it. Its going to serve as a shelf, a place to...

    1964 Trailblazer Chief Camper Build

    Got the step installed this weekend, it doesn't quite line up with the door due to the trailer frame location under the floor which is annoying but it'll work. I've also been trying to figure out how I was going to build the shelf in the bathroom and make it water tight. The brainstorm I had...

    Thanks, its been a long slow process with lots of dead periods but as soon as I buy some tires its usable at least and the rest of the finish and amenities can happen in time.

    Millions of Acres Proposed as New Conservation Area in Montana

    If you bought the land privately you could leave all the trails open and even build more if you wanted, APR chose to close and revegetate them, their land, their choice. Its not the same thing as a government entity buying it and placing it into one of the management structures they have like a...

    Millions of Acres Proposed as New Conservation Area in Montana

    The APR is a private non-profit purchasing, owning, and managing lands in the way they want, no different than you or I doing so. FWS is a government agency using public dollars to purchase land or easements, they would have to place those lands in an appropriate management structure, such as a...

    Picture isn't very exciting, new seals arrived so I put those in, greased the bearings, and put it all back together.

    I don't really know, it had electric brakes originally but I disconnected them. Planning to replace the axle in the next year or so, just going to pull all the brake guts out and run without until then.

    1964 Trailblazer Chief Camper Build

    Finally got off my lazy ass and got back to work. Finished caulking all the windows and trimmed the door. Started axle work, replacement seals will be here on Tuesday, need to finish cleaning things up and put it all back together then.
