Fun with the Rebel Bird
Hey Jon,
On 6/10/07, Jon > > I'm totally retired and I love to have challenges and since this will > take up a little of my spare time-why not? Well, I'll be the one to encourage you, then. I think you should do it. If nothing else, it will be unique. If I had a useless rear door hanging off the back of my coach, I'd do it. A back porch on an RV is just a cool idea. Then again, I was raised by hippies, so that gives you some perspective on why I like the idea too. ;-) If I were doing it, I'd try to make some sort of three layered electric slide-out deal, so when you're driving down the road it only sticks out two feet, but when parked you flip a switch and now it's 6 feet. Would be fun to engineer something like that and not too difficult a project I'd imagine. Your idea with the three receiver hitches is a good one, I think, and would make the project removable should things not work out as well as planned. ![]() Pete's ideas on a hinge-connection and/or skid are good ones. I'd try to implement those and you might also add some large steel "wheels" to the back - you know the type, long and skinny like they use on the big garbage bins. Should stop you from catching the ground with the rear most platform cross member and ripping the whole thing off your coach. Good luck with it. ![]() -Ryan '86 PT-40 8V92 Tri-Cities, WA |
