Pics of RTT Mounting System??
Can anyone furnish pics of their RTT mounted to their trailer. I'm buying an ordinary 5' x 12' utility trailer and building a raised platform at the front of trailer to put RTT on. I'm being told that a crossbar system would be better than merely anchoring the tent to the floor / deck. Can anyone explain what I need to do to this trailer to prep it for mounting the RTT? Maybe furnish a list of minimum reqmnts and items to purchase and/or fabricate? Pics? Thanks
FYI- it will be a new Mombasa Expedition tent... __________________ 1997 FZJ80 CE, 6M1 'BOOGER' GREEN, 103k orig. miles  , Baselined, ARB, SuperWinch 12.5, OEM Hand Throttle, HIR's, SROR custom sliders, CDL/Pin 7, Slee TC Skid Plate, OME 2.5" 850/860 w/CC, Toyo 285's w/1.5" spacers, Hi-Lift 'Extreme', PIAA 520's, HD port. air comp., Slee cup holder...

BTW, I see you have a wood floor in a civie Bantam trailer. Is it resting on the original floor, or has it replaced the original floor? Also curious, you have your camping gear set in, but no cushioning. I'm going to use some sort of cushioning, like foam, to keep from banging things up on washboard roads, etc. __________________ 1971 FJ40 w/ Chevy 350, Mark's of Australia bellhousing kit, 1979 4-spd transmission & transfer case, 12.50x33x15 tires.

The wood on mine was put in by the last owner, it is resting on the origanal floor.its made of plywood and hardwood on top of that.I dont like it much that way because no drain holes were put in and after rained the work swelled and cracked. I am going to take ou tthe floor and make a new one out of marine plywood then some outdoor carpet to keep everything from sliding around.
I never thought of cushioning, I have everythingpacked well in bags and pelican cases. Ceck out my web page for more pics of the trailer. |
