Must admit I love seeing projects like this, especially when i havent got the skills to undertake it... keep it going... theres a great thread on another 4WD site where this bloke has been building his ultimate camper over the last 2 years on Saturdays,, amazing...
cheers

Shaneo,
Good to see more photos of your camper.
With work and family its hard to fit everything in.
Take care and good post
Trevor
yes very hard ! building the kitchen at the moment!
Awesome work there Shano!!!! Just a thought on the tow bar hitch. i have a serious offroad boat trailer that was built really well (wish I could take credit but I can't). The guy that built it used a Treg Polyblock Hitch for the hitch instead of a standard towbar. It's a heaps better alternative than stock for a heap of different reasons but the main 2 are that it's is very very easy to hitch up and it also allows maximum side side movement (needed when offroad) I'm not sure how much they are worth but if i was in your situation I would pay what they ask.
P.M. me if you would like pics of mine.
Cheers Chris
