Just seen this 'pure zinc coating' product by them, not sure that you would want to cover the bed of a pickup truck with it though. http://www.frost.co.uk/how-zinga-works-cold-galvanising-system-anti-corrosion-zinc-coating/?utm_source=2017_02_03_Zinga_Coating&utm_campaign=2017_02_03_Zinga_Coating&ut...

I've never owned one of these kits myself but I do wonder if having the inner valve core pushed in all the time is a wise thing safety wise? If those screw on caps become faulty or take a knock from a rock whilst off roading for example, surely all the air will come out fairly promptly??

Wife & I would certainly like to turn up too, not really bothered where it's held, having moved to another part of the country recently, finding new jobs etc, trying to book a particular weekend off maybe tricky for us?? we'll see.

I have an old black and decker workmate and another similar folding workbench. I sit the camper on those and the 4 jacks when off the truck. I'm certainly not lowering it all the way down since I've got manual jacks. Steve. The workmate I own seems a bit flimsy, I only use it to support the weight ...

Thanks,.....I've pretty much run out of steel stock right now but if anyone is interested in having one made, I'll see what I can do.

Another option maybe, find a place on the dash to mount a Scangauge or similar, apart from giving a speed readout there's other features, it can read/clear some fault codes too,.....all assuming that the vehicle has an OBD2 port in the first place. https://www.scangauge.com/ Do those electronic ODB...

If it's a 2005 vehicle, it should have one. You may have to remove a piece of plastic/trim to see it first but it should be within reach of the drivers seat, I believe that were one of the rules.

This is what I've designed/fabricated from mostly scrap pieces of metal that I had left over from another project. :) I decided to make it somewhat foldable, easy to move/store out of the way when need be. :) http://i66.tinypic.com/2dv0mqc.jpg http://i68.tinypic.com/2qtxwr9.jpg http://i63.tinypic.co...
