Hey there Mr. Mod!

Wondering where you've been...and we certainly haven't seen any new mods come out of your factory- what cha been up to? Can we get ya to reload your pics so all of your past mods posts are complete again? I don't know what anyone could do without your inverter install thread!

Hope things are going fine!

Hi Sean,

Sorry that I've been missing in action and hopefully this reply will display most of the
mods I've done to date.

Cutting off and Shorting the sewer line:


Buford's Pole Holder Mounted:


How to Get Power to Buford's Pole:



Split vinyl tube protecting upper shelf cloth ledge:


Adding additional heavy duty support to pantry slide shelves (Purchased a Home Depot):


How to carry 20 foot sewer hose: Cut off the end of the stock 10' hose
carrier and then the larger hose curls perfectly into a 5 gal. bucket.


Coiled Fabric Heating Ducts Covered and Protected in front storage area:



Protect wiring where it contacts metal frame:


Make sure your brake wires are out of harm's way. Tie them up high or
they might end up being crushed between the axle and frame.


Adding another mounting location for the small table:


Adding Reading Lights Over Master Bed..... Where to run the wires from:






Protecting the WW wood photo-finish at door handles. It's easily damaged
and this is a high contact area, especially if the wife and kids have long fingernails.
I went to TAP plastics and got some heavy duty vinyl and cut it to size.



For those too cheap to install an air conditioner in the master bedroom:


Adding more support to sagging water tank crossmembers:


A shut off valve between the two 75 gallon water tanks enables you to fill only
the front tank...... if that is all you need to carry.



Adding more storage space below the bed by making it deeper. Also
added a bit of a slope for better sleeping. It's lower at the foot of the bed.


Made Ramp Door Cables attached to Stainless steel eye bolt and Nut at Ramp.

So howie:

Am I to assume from this thread falling to page 2, that you are done, buddy?

If you don't mind, I'd like to see what mod skills I can find to move this over to the MOD sticky...lots of good stuff in here, Maynard!!!!

Has anyone emailed the pictures of this to WW? This should be a goldmine to WW and something they should take to their next marketing meeting. Next they should contact 56 for the rights and pay him big bucks for the right to encompass these changes in their new trailers. And then, 56 should win the lottery!

Now that we have that little tidbit out of the way, 56, you are the king and we should all bow down, even if is to the porcelain gods.

Ps...don't get me wrong here. This is as great as it gets for mods for a WW. Everything you will ever need and more too, WWFAN, you are right in posting this to a sticky for all to see when they visit the toyhauler forum.
