New tank installed. easy fix instead of the expensive versions. I saw this on some ones rig and looked into the possibility of using it on my trailer. Worked like a charm. I now have the water in quantity in the trailer instead of having all the plumbing in the truck with a way too small 3 gallon tank. Now I have more storage in the truck and 26 gallons in the trailer to off set the rear bumper and tire swing out.

The pump mounts right to the top of the tank. I still need to plumb and electrify but the main task is complete. I'm thinking about a very small 12 volt and a solar panel to maintain the battery.

My next concern is getting rid of the mondo wooden camp kitchen and building another one out of 340 16 gage stainless in a smaller manageable version.

Looks like a cool water supply solution.

What kind of top do you have on there. It looks like you fabbed up some bowstring trusses. Have any other pics of it?:wrench:
 
Home made with 20 ga steel top and 120 lb struts. I have a RTT on it now with Thule bars attached. Plus a few other goodies. Getting ready for a Death Valley 10 day fun ride in April.

I made a new tongue, extended 23 inches so I could get the tire swing out to work better and put the original lunette ring and landing gear back on. The thing tracks straight as an arrow. New BFG's, Thule bars and a RTT, shocks, springs, paint.

I love the topper and now with the swing out tire carrier, new bumper and swing out tailgate i don't have to lift the top every time I need to get in to get stuff. That was a pain with the tent on. I just swing the gate open. I'm going to mount my shower on the inside gate and run plumbing and electricity to the rear of the trailer. it's coming together slow but sure. The project never ends.
