3 years ..
this is the "time limit"
unfortunatly , I have not had the time to do some of the things I wanted to do ..
I have other projects in the "line up" waiting to get there time in the shop as well .. so it's time to wrap the trekker project up and move on

Corey -
Been wanting to ask for a while. How is the 'glass box attached to the cab? What will keep it from flexing at that joint and cracking?
thx!

I have nothing important to say.

as with the winnabego mounting .. it will be "mechanically" fastened .. the differance is in the rubber mounts and the frame I have made , The rubber mounts are a soft /flexable "puck" which will allow the rear tub to flex with the cab .. however , only "real time" testing confirm ( I hope I'm right ) .
