Recent Modifications

Just wanted to post some recent mods that I have completed.

5" Fence Post / 4.5" symmetrical rain gutter

Pass thru organizer for chairs, table, welcome mat, and 6" PVC tube for outdoor rug.

50 A, fresh water hose storage and misc storage box. The MORryde Reel was a gift, purchase the air hose reel from Harbor Freight. The box in the recessed area is used for sanitation gloves, water pressure gauge, quick connects, etc.

Unhitch / hitch magnetic level. Right after unhitching and pulling out the truck, and before leveling the fiver, I attach the level at level. I then level the fiver. When I am hitching up, I adjust the height of the fiver so that hitch level is level, I am now back at my unhitch height.

Back of Bed RV Tool Box. Not really a mod, but was anniversary gift from DW and I like it.

In progress Mods

Awning tie downs. Unfortunately, I was too late to the game to get OldCoot's, hardware, so I am using Bimini hardware and painter poles.

Fold down shelf next to bed for CPAP.

Installation of pull out trash container

LED lights under awning.


Thanks.

Great job on your mods! One question, what's that big gauge for in the 4th pic?

That's what I originally thought but comparing it to the size of your water filter wrench the gauge seemed pretty big to me.

Thanks all. Leaving Sunday for Galveston, staying at Dellanera for a week. Meeting up with my folks in Montgomery, TX with their MH and heading southward together. DD loves our fiver, but she has made it know that when we meet up with BaPa and Grandma, shes heading to the MH

How did you mount the RV Tool box. I have an eight foot bed and I really like yours.
