My kind of mod.:) Do it yourself and save $$ :) Great video. Definitely worth the 20k savings. Thanks for sharing. Safe Travels.

[@AdventureEndeavor]

Thank you! Yeah just didn't make sense to us! Saved the $ and have a better layout!

[@doughasson2073]

That job warmed me up a little. 11 Degrees in Northern KY this morning. Thanks for the video. Nice job.

[@AdventureEndeavor]

That's great glad I could help! That's super cold, we are in the 70s right now.

[@AdventureEndeavor]

Oh and thank you!

[@jeanne-gord7685]

Really cool and functional mod. I suggest you heat shrink the cut cable ends on the lower tie ins. That cut cable can be really sharp. Sides it will dress the job up nicely. Enjoy the vids so keep up the good work.

[@AdventureEndeavor]

Thank you! Thank you for the suggestion, since this video we have wrapped the ends in a very heavy duty Gaffer's tape that we use in the film industry. The heat shrink is a great idea also!

[@robrob31295]

Good job will be saving this in case we need it one day😁. Saw a Carbon Toyhauler on I-20 EB FTW , Tx the other and thought of you guys🤗💓hugs

[@AdventureEndeavor]

Great! Hopefully you need it, the patio is awesome! Ah that's great, thanks for thinking about us!👍👊

[@RVOnTheWayside]

You need to stop being so charming! Loving your new rig. ❤️

[@AdventureEndeavor]

Who me?? 😂 we love the new rig also, have a couple modification videos coming out!

[@BikesBoatsBivouacs]

Great idea that I might be able to use on my KZ 180 TH. Checking with my dealer to make sure it doesn't void the warranty. Nice job.. Subbed your channel.

[@AdventureEndeavor]

Thank you! Yeah if you still have a warranty I would check, they will probably say it will void it. You never know, it's worked perfectly so far.

[@rickhopkins1678]

Great mod!

[@AdventureEndeavor]

Thank you, so far it's been great!

[@easyriderfi]

I did that model to my 17BLSE. So far all good. I've noticed some guys use jack stands on the outside of the door.

[@AdventureEndeavor]

That's great! We haven't found a need for jack stands. Fulltime 1 year of use already.

[@SlowMomentum]

Great Job Bro.

[@AdventureEndeavor]

Thank you I appreciate it, tried to make the video fun as well!

[@SlowMomentum]

Success. Lol

[@AdventureEndeavor]

@@SlowMomentum thanks!

[@ntoxic8edx]

What is in your yard?? 😂😂😂 is that a flamingo the size of a dinosaur

[@AdventureEndeavor]

Yeah there's a lot of weird stuff. It's my dad's yard art. They collect a lot of antiques.

[@elizabethlang630]

Hey Thanks for posting this - we are going to try this on our toy hauler and we ordered all the parts from your link but the 3mm cable clamps are way too small for the 5/16 cable doubled. And the D Rings they sent were huge! much larger than in the video - What is the proper size cable clamps? Thanks for clearing this up

[@AdventureEndeavor]

Hey that's strange! It might be easier to go to home depot for the clamps to make sure they are the correct size. Unfortunately I don't have the rig with he to measure.

[@elizabethlang630]

@@AdventureEndeavor Will Do - Thanks!

[@Enarro54]

Great video man just got a toy hauler myself and was thinking of this going to sub and look forward to more videos quick question though about how much we can those cables or the door itself handle

[@AdventureEndeavor]

I'm not too sure about the weight rating but we have had 4 people out there at a time. Thanks for watching!

[@TalkingWithBob]

ok I am jelly all i have on my tent trailer is s door that folds down into a step lol

[@AdventureEndeavor]

Everyone's set up is different! We are excited to have a nice outdoor space.

[@neilmac4730]

Now you need netted walls to contain the dog. May as well have a roof for shade too!

[@AdventureEndeavor]

We have definitely thought all about it! We might do a dog gate and possibly an awning at some point.

[@glennjohnson3313]

@@AdventureEndeavor have you done some kind of railing or dog gate yet ?

[@AdventureEndeavor]

No we haven't, we just use our pull down screen mostly. Still on our list, if we do something we will definitely make a video.

[@triplealley]

For that adjustability, I would have cut the wire ropes short, and finished with chain. Not sure you need it though.

[@AdventureEndeavor]

Yeah that's definitely a good idea, so far its been great as is. But depending on how you setup your trailer might be nice. Thanks for watching!

[@davidiman7072]

Great video... What lenght and size of the grade 8 bolts used for the D ring?

[@AdventureEndeavor]

Let me check when we get back to our trailer. Roughly 2.5 inches long and 9/16. But you should measure all trailers will be different and it also depends on what D rings you use as well.

[@CharlesButler]

Great video, just a quick question I am looking to do the same for my trailer, but I want to make it more sturdy. Can I install 2 stabilizer jacks one on each side so that when I pull it down it's level and won't be bouncing up and down? I want to use my back ramp door as a porch.

[@AdventureEndeavor]

Yeah you should be able to do that. I would just keep in mind to through bolt everything and use aluminum plates on BOTH sides. The fiberglass is not that strong. Thanks for watching.

[@CharlesButler]

@@AdventureEndeavor awww great idea! Thank you!

[@AdventureEndeavor]

You are welcome, good luck with your project!

[@szheli]

Curious question, how does the ramp door assist work on your trailer? Generally there is a torsion spring mounted on the ceiling of the trailer right by the ramp door opening. Thanks.

[@AdventureEndeavor]

We have a spring at the bottom near the hinges, it dosn't really do anything to be honest.

[@SaltyVetAdventures]

How has this held up for you? I am about to embark on a similar project. 👍

[@AdventureEndeavor]

It's been great. We have used it many times and had 4 people out there!

[@LivingTheGoodLifeRving]

Thank you thats what we are going to do to ours to because it doesn't come with it too!

[@AdventureEndeavor]

Oh cool so glad this video will help! Make sure you bolt all the way through both aluminum peices. All the supplies is linked in the description as well!

[@Fit4Expedition]

Great video. I'm contemplating doing this on my box van conversion. Where did you buy the door? Thanks. I'm a new sub and I rang the bell.

[@AdventureEndeavor]

Hey glad you liked it. Our trailer came with the door it's a toy hauler, we just added the cables. Hope this helps.

[@tozlakes]

What happen to the cables when the door is closed? How about the D rings on the door itself, do they clear the sealing area and allow the door to fully close as My Attitude would not allow the D rings to be located in that location without interferance of the seal and closing surface.

[@AdventureEndeavor]

The cables just hang on the inside, everything seals up just fine. I'm sure rigs are made differently.

[@Buffatestuff]

So, after a year, how is it holding up, would you do anything differently today?

[@AdventureEndeavor]

It's worked perfectly for us Keven! Wouldn't change anything!

[@travisgray3331]

What did the outside of the ramp look like with the bolts going through? did you seal them?

[@AdventureEndeavor]

They were sealed just added a little bit of silicone.

[@travisgray3331]

@@AdventureEndeavor can we see a pic of the outside of the ramp

[@AdventureEndeavor]

Sorry not right now I'm away from the trailer. I won't be back at the trailer for one month. Sorry

[@travisgray3331]

@@AdventureEndeavor oohhh gotcha…

[@theninja001]

5/16” cable is waaay overkill, one cable is good for 5 tons!

[@AdventureEndeavor]

Never had to worry about it!👍👊

[@Saintly2]

How has your patio held up? Any modifications you'd make now that you've had it and used it for a bit?

[@AdventureEndeavor]

We no longer have this RV, but we didn't have any issues with it

[@katw5733]

What did you hook the wire to on the inside of the trailer? I don't see anywhere mine might be able to wrap around. Thanks!

[@AdventureEndeavor]

Ours has factory brackets built into the frame of the trailer. We literally just attached it, there was a hole just like the trailers that come with a patio.

[@katw5733]

@@AdventureEndeavor got it, thank you. I was searching in my trailer what it could attach to. I think I need to install an extra bracket on the frame. Thanks!!

[@AdventureEndeavor]

Oh alright our trailer already had upper attachment points.

[@garmondo618]

From what I saw, you rendered your toy hauler useless for hauling toys.. I could be wrong, but It looked like you permanently mounted both ends, 😂 may I suggest a carabiner at one end or both..

[@AdventureEndeavor]

It wasn't in the video but carabiners were added. Its fully functional.

[@roryolson61]

Another idea for the ends would be to swedge the loops. That's what I will be doing to avoid using those clamps. I think that if your hardware store sells the cable, they have the swedge tool also. I like your thought on the turnbuckle too. Anyway thanks for sharing this video! I love DIY stuff!

[@AdventureEndeavor]

That's a good idea as s well! We dont have a toy so ours is a patio 99% of the time. Good luck when you tackle yours!

[@americanazheck]

200 bucks for the cable kit if your door is over 22 inches...If under, get the stabilizer legs for 67 bucks..Thats where Im at now

[@AdventureEndeavor]

Nice, we loved this setup.

[@AnthonyMarcus-e3j]

What parts were needed for this at home depot?

[@AdventureEndeavor]

We linked most of the parts on Amazon. But you can refer to those and figure out what you need at home Depot. Sorry this video was made very long time ago.

[@AnthonyMarcus-e3j]

@@AdventureEndeavor Im mainly just curious what bracket you used to support the top section. did you use a d ring set up on that as well ?

[@AdventureEndeavor]

Ours already had a frame, we just looped the cable though

[@leemcintosh5741]

What size cable did you use

[@AdventureEndeavor]

I believe it was 5/16 we linked it in the description.

[@manuelsaldana2730]

Lol heavy duty chingaderas

Very technical stuff right there! Thanks for watching Manuel, we try to keep the videos fun!
