    Thank you Javi Lee. I enjoyed your hard work. I think the ideas you came up with were outstanding such as : using a metal frame housing (welding too was great), All the suspension bolts for wheels looked right according to other videos I saw about that topic. I liked the tail light positioning. I would like to see more about how to hook up the electrical with the battery and fuse box with the vehicle and describe any electronics that come with your kits to watch out for. Also, what other types of building out project ideas such as: Hooking up a bath, water, electric outlets etc. Good stuff - I'll keep tuned in. Peace ~

    Nice install! Quick tip to try in the future. Slide your t bolts in on the rack wherever you want them first, put a dot of paint or nail polish on the tip of each bolt facing upwards and lightly set the cargo box on them. It’ll mark perfectly where you need to drill your four holes, a lot quicker than measuring everything.

  • @DeepSouthOverlander
    @DeepSouthOverlander Місяць тому

    Thanks for the quick and dirty review on this awning. I have to say the biggest thing about freestanding awnings that scares me (seeing all the horror story on the tube....) is how quickly it is for a huge wind gust to essentially mangle the entire thing beyond repair. That's a LOT of wing surface and a lot of cantilever force applied to that one articulation where all the arms stack up. IF I ever buy another one (did buy an ironman once and returned/sold it one hour later after installation and realized the backside would NOT cover my kitchen/hatch area of my truck) I would certainly advocate to ALWAYS drop the extra pole or at least put the guy lines down. $270 is a great price. Best of luck.

    • @javilee98
      @javilee98 Місяць тому

      I agree with you, it just depends on the day/weather. Certain days in my driveway there's absolutely no wind so it's free standing. Every time I've taken it to the beach, even with mild wind I stake it down. It only takes 3 minutes to stake it down so it's worth it. If it's crazy windy I won't open it up, I'm familiar with the horror stories as well!

    • @dattran6372
      @dattran6372 Місяць тому

      yep, and most of these lower priced awnings are REALLY weak at the joints and that's where they get messed up or break even in weaker winds.

  • @BUILDYBUNCH

    Great project! The WaterWeld might be a bit overkill. Applying PVC glue to both the male and female parts of the pipe should prevent any leaks. This method is commonly used in building sprinkler systems, gutters, and perimeter drains.

    Not only should those shock bolts to torqued *TIGHT* but also require use of lock nuts. The shock's bushing is designed to relieve the torsion stress. The bushing sleeves *MUST* be fastened secure and static.

    • @jasonbarnett1256
      @jasonbarnett1256 Місяць тому

      You want the shock to rotate and since there's going to be some side-to-side movement of the axle, something needs to allow for that play. It could be the shock sliding on it's mounting bolt (or sleeve), but you're saying the bushing is designed to take that torsional load and deflect?

  • @StealthGTI
    @StealthGTI 2 місяці тому

    I'm considering a homemade rack for my roof that does NOT have channels or existing mounting holes. Did you use the spacers just to clear the channel grooves? On MY roof (no channels), would placing the angle iron directly on the roof give more surface area (contact) to distribute the load better? Of course, I'd have nuts beneath the roof. I appreciate your opinion. This is just a brainstorm at this point; so, no dreams dashed if you think it's a bad idea. ;-) Thanks!

    • @javilee98
      @javilee98 2 місяці тому

      Correct on the spacers, just used to clear the channel grooves. I think placing the angle iron directly on the roof would be a bad idea, any rubbing/moving will scratch and rust quickly. Could potentially make a rubber/silicone washer to keep metal off metal but I still wouldn't really recommend it.

    Why did it leak? It should have welded plastic together...something was wrong with your glue for the PVC. I think most likely is that you applied the purple primer and let to too many pieces and it dried before you put them together. Everything needs to be wet when you push them together. Some teflon tape on threads might have sealed the screw on pieces.

    • @javilee98
      @javilee98 2 місяці тому

      I did it wet on one of the joints and it leaked as well, this DWV pipe doesn't have as tight of a fit as regular PVC. I also did Teflon tape on the threads but it's still leaking, not terrible enough to worry about it. Can still get up to 20ish PSI and plenty of pressure
