I always had a problem of where to carry the bike when on the road. I saw the idea for the mount on the web and decided to try it for the ramp of my Toy Hauler.
Inside the the Toy Hauler I made sure the mount was going where the bike would be clear from hitting anything and would be out of the way as much as possible.
The mount is made from 1/2" pipe T, Flange and 3 1/2" nipples. I bought the nipples that go between the fork of the bicycle extra long because I wanted to cut off the threads.
The 5/8" inch bolt with wing nut has washers that fit inside the fork making it impossible for the bike to slip out once tightend down.

Great idea, I'm stealing it! - stro1965ExplorerI fixed the hot and cold faucet in the kitchen sink. They were backward when I took delivery! Also continued to test different features, set up the "deck", and broke in the generator.
- CJW8ExplorerI installed 2ea 15 amp automatic transfer switches on two different circuits. Now most all outlets inside will always have power, either generator/shore or inverter.
I also relocated the converter to make it accessible. I cleaned up the wiring eliminating about 8 feet of wire to the batteries. Now I can get to the button to get the converter into boost. - naytherExplorerI "remodeled" the interior of our trailer. Removed the dinette and put in two swivel recliners. Made a foldable shelf that attaches where the dinette used to, covers the screw holes and is VERY useful. The dinette was really only practical for two, unless two more were kids, just too tight for adults. Its usually just the DW and I and if there are more we can use the long table in front of the couch. For a table with these chairs we use one of the small foldable tables from Camping World.

Once you apply your gap filler, you may want to go over it with Flexseal or equivalent. The foam stuff doesn't tolerate rain and water and road dirt very well.
Thanks for the suggestion! Makes sense for any exposed gap filler. - WizbangdoodleExplorerOnce you apply your gap filler, you may want to go over it with Flexseal or equivalent. The foam stuff doesn't tolerate rain and water and road dirt very well.
- RambinoExplorerReplaced inoperative solar controller.
Installed bug screen on water heater door. Trying to find one to fit the furnace ports. None found for this particular port.
Used Great Stuff expanding foam to fill gaps in water line entry hole under the kitchen sink. I was able to see the ground. The space has electrical wiring for furnace and other circuits and water piping to and from the water pump and is covered by thin cabinet material. Just trying to prevent water and critter entry. I plan to inspect for other similar areas (propane tubing and other electrical entry points)and fill gaps/openings. - RambinoExplorerRemoved bathroom ceiling A/C vent to measure for flush mount vent as bedroom door rubs vent slightly. Noticed poor tape job to cover gap between duct and ceiling. Removed tape and used great stuff expanding foam to fill the gap. Did the same in bedroom. The other ceiling vent openings were adequately taped and needed no attention.
Replaced the bathroom faucet with a residential faucet with pivoting spout. Spout reaches further out into sink. Very easy!
Installed Oxygenics shower head.
Rolled around underneath to inspect hose, electrical, etc routing and found a few items that need securing or improvement. - StraboExplorerI did nothing to ours, its been sitting in the desert sun for months now. I opened the door last week, still dirty from Prez Day. We dont need it till Halloween.
