Re: New LED Tail Lights

Thanks Silverloaf! It is pretty cool bending metal :) I do have quite a bit of work in these. I had to mock up the four plates of the "box" by using cardboard and a ton of trial and fit but finally got it. The back of the trailer bends in two planes. But I got it mocked up in cardboard, th...

Re: New LED Tail Lights

I was going for a "Corvette Look" with the three round lights on each side, but it wound up looking (to me, anyway) sort of 1930's German Industrial like something out of the Messerschmitt factory. But anyway, here are a few pics. I believe the plans are now in the Documentation folder. Ch...

Re: New LED Tail Lights

Re: New LED Tail Lights

I tried to upload all of my files, but it seems like this website only allows certain types of files...like maybe only images and similar? These files are .dwg and .dxf and then some G-code and other type extensions for CNC machines. Can a moderator help me? If not, my personal email is jimgoldenpe@...

Re: New LED Tail Lights

I don't know why two of them are rotated 90 degrees. Same as to why the video wouldn't upload. Sorry...

New LED Tail Lights

A huge shout out to superbrightleds.com Years ago when I made my new aluminum tail light housings, I ordered their 4" LED lights to put in them. The first set had half the LED elements go out. They replaced them for free. Just today, I installed the second set. Again, half the LED elements went...

Re: 30 Amp to 50 Amp Conversion

Bob's book is called "RV Repair Manual." I think there have been many versions of it. It's pretty good and helped me a lot with my trailer.

Re: 30 Amp to 50 Amp Conversion

Hi guys, Been awhile since I've been on here but got the text message :) For the charging of the batteries, I don't think you need to change anything. That amount of power doesn't really change. The only wire I had to change out was the main feed to the side compartment where the 6 wire went. It's b...

Re: Jim and his 34X

That's a very good point. There aren't a lot of ac outlets in there. Wouldn't hurt to add one there. That way you're not tripping over the extension cord or getting it wet running across the sink to the one by the door :) My dad just offered to sell me a 5th wheel trailer at a cheap price. But I pas...
