So what did you do to your Truck Camper today?

Pretty slick

Got a 48" Super Hitch extension, welded my MC carrier on top so now I can take both my MC and boat!!! :C

Dak, be sure to remove it when it might rain. Mine did not like moisture.

Thanks for the reminder Raften! I agree, they don't like moisture. I plan on taking it off when I'm driving and when the truck is parked at home. That's why I like it. It's easily removable just by sliding up up and off. I only plan on using it for dry camping out in the middle of nowhere.

Installed the 6 LED bulbs I purchased. I stopped at 6 so that I can test them before swapping all the bulbs in the TC and the MH. Wow are they bright!

I installed 6 of these - - in two double fixtures and two single fixtures. The single really lit the bathroom!

made very good use of the kitchen, steak marinated in garlic and molasses the grilled, asparagus in butter, kale salad with a yogurt dressing, and sourdough garlic bread

Unloaded camper after a week long trip down the Oregon coast to ride the dunes at Sand Lake and Florence. Rained hard for 2 days and then great weather for the rest of the trip.

set up camp

How is this for girly...I picked out fabric to make new valance. We just need a few days in the 60's for my husband to finish his roof replacement project. I can't wait!

Sorry Ma'am, those days in the sixties are 45 plus years in the past. :W

LOL...listening to his stories, his most "creative" days were in the early 70's. I was just a pup in the 60's.

Installed a Jack Digital HDTV Antenna to replace the one that I had on my camper when I bought it. It really picks up the channels now with crystal clear reception. I also installed four new rain spout extenders to replace the ones that were cracked and broken off.

AnEv942,
I would say looking at your numbers you are 10 months older than me. Our numbers are JfJn743.
The rear tires are LT375/55R16's and measure around 16 inches across at the breach and 33 inches tall. Even with aluminum rims, the tire/wheel combo weigh about 130 pounds, increasingly more difficult to hoist onto the studs. I now have a protocol to put the jack and axle studs at exactly the same height and clocked hole attitude so i can wiggle the tires onto the studs. I sit on a low roller stool and use my toes to guide the monsters slightly one way or the other.
The front 305/75R16's, 33.1 inches tall are much easier to mount.
