Looks like a lot of work. Are you reinforcing the corners and switching to modern jacks?
I don't see different pictures on your link just your youtube channel.
YouTube link should go to the Truck Camper playlist. We're videoing as we go.
I am adding more pictures to this thread...I have to resize them smaller - so it's taking me a bit of time to do this. Will post as I get them done.
No...just the jacks that came with it. Don't see any reason to replace them. They work great. Cranking by hand is no problemo. New ones are super expensive. The wood under the jacks is all new. The entire frame has been shored up big time.
It is work. More work than some things....less work than others. It takes time, skill, money, tools, planning. We're no strangers to lots of work. Compared to some of our other projects this is a piece of cake. Satisfying to make something cool and get to go traveling in it. We travel for many months out of the year and we look forward to hitting the road later this year in this camper. We're in the home stretch now.
