23:00 Those Jacks are intended as stabilizers only. Level side to side at the wheels. Level front to back at the tongue. Stabilize at the corners. Do not take the weight off the wheels or you will bend the frame of the trailer. That's why the slide won't go out. Also do not externally support the slide outs. It will damage the mechanisms.

Also with the way the jack linkages work, they have nearly no force when they are barely extended. If they were extended more they would lift more.

@ ANDREW: You mentioned the slide being out for life. If you really want this camper to last for many years to come without rotting into the ground, build a large carport over it so rain can never get to the roof or the roof of the slide outs... Rain and snow are the WORST POSSIBLE things to happen to all campers... The sliders are particularly vulnerable. Water getting to anything in these bassards are almost as big of a threat as is fire.. I live in Florida and see constant campers with completely fahked interiors due to roof leaks... Then the ants get going on their feast and you are left with a pile of very expensive crap.... Trust me, build a carport over it and make it big enough to cover about 4 feet beyond all sides.. My buddy had one for decades without any roof issues and it also gave the benefit of shade in the hot months. He said his electric bill dropped by almost 75%.. He also built one with plenty overhang on the front for a large porch..

@@johnkruton9708 If he was worried about fireproof, he'd have NEVER bought a camper...

[@HKRXPRS]

You can visibly see the sag in the middle and slight buckling in the cladding; I suspect that's why the pop-out was binding. They're built to have the weight on the axels at all times and the entire structure is built around the chassis sagging either side of this. If you don't have the wheels supported, with added snow load you could actually do some very serious damage to all part of the structure inside and out. I build this sort of stuff for a living and see a few totalled by stuff like this every year.

[@Oilcruzer]

Also, leaving them out all the time is sketchy. The roofing needs to be carefully monitored and maintained. If these aren’t moving in and out, ever, perhaps a permanent exoskeleton and roof, out of… oh I dunno… steel maybe 😂

[@pjcd7016]

Get on the roof and re-chaulk all the seams with Dicor lap sealant, I've owned RV's for a couple of decades now and the best way to keep out water is to regularly check the roof and window seals, small water leaks are never detected until dry rot has set in. Have fun with your new rig!

Used to live in a 35 footer and if you don't seal the roof properly they leak and everything goes to shit, cause they are not built strong. after sealer, might want to consider building a permanent roof over the entire trailer to help protect the roof, also if your gonna keep the sliders out best to also put some blocks under them as well, to keep them more stabilized also.

The new bumper will be awesome. This is good stuff. I love the “can do” spirit.

[@hankrains1705]

You need to tighten the left track on the D7 before it walks off on you. Another helpful thing, put a hitch on the dozer to pull the trailers with.

[@radioace318la]

I was expecting it to jump track at every turn.

[@patrickmchose7472]

I like the dogs response at 15:03

[@K.J.Ray421]

My thoughts exactly on the hitch. But since it was nice to be able to clear with the D7, I say he should have had the other dozer hooked to the camper instead of the truck. Then you've got a solid frame for the camper's "tow vehicle". I cringed the first time that the winch freewheeled downhill 2 feet and nearly took the bumper off.

Wait a few months it will get much worse

[@69jbr69]

Great score!! I thought that thing was gonna yard sale down the hill when that bumper started going. If you want it to last, step one is to take your post hole digger up there and build a pole shed roof over it. Step two is stuff it with rodent control. Don't forget to winterize it.

[@alexanderkupke920]

Yeah, rodent control is one thing. Not sure if I had gone with putting it completely under a roof, although that makes sense for sure as it eliminates the load of the snow in winter and keeps away some heat in the summer. But I would recommend putting something on top of the slide outs for sure, as those things are not unlikely to start leaking at some point.

[@69jbr69]

@@alexanderkupke920 One universal guarantee on campers is that the roofs will leak. Usually after extreme roads like pulling it up a mountain where the unit itself is under stress causing all the seams to flex or winter snow weight and ice dams. He probably spent a good chunk of change on that camper. Putting a $5k roof over it with nice over hang for sled parking and dry storage/deck area and to completely eliminate roof leaking possibility is a wise investment. I just hope he did his research and this model is a true four season with better insulation since winter use seems to be intended purpose. Otherwise it's gonna be a wall sweating ice box.

I lost it when the D7 ripped the winch of that pickup

[@jccorder1]

I cringed when your buddy let the truck roll back down the hill and ripped up your front hitch. Then he did it again. Great spot for a camper and another great video

[@Military-Museum-LP]

I’ve watched this young man from the first few months he started posting and I tell you he was born to be a CAT skinner. He can make it look easy with that D7.

[@alanwills9966]

Absolutely loved it -- what a place - - your empire is growing - - keep it up Andrew - good luck in all you do

[@Mad00Dawg]

As @Dale Adkins eluded to; 'snow proofing' & 'mice proofing' might be a priority. During the time you not there, the snow will be building up on those side outs and the mice will love their new home! When you are there you'll be busy fix'n mice damage, shoveling off the roof, and potential snow & water leak damage, chewing into valuable sledding time. With that said, your Ambition is Amazing! What an awesome spot and idea! Cheers Andrew! Thanks for sharing!

[@pvf1799]

You show so much reverence for the land, said no one ever!

[@clevejason]

This is a top 5 Andrew video right here!

[@JmGuTe]

Love your videos Andrew, you are the embodiment of doing what you can with what you have. HOWEVER, I notice a theme to you, when things start going south you blame the equipment or item. Your towing situation is because you're doing something that was never intended to be used in that manner, and you are taking it to an extreme! Do I agree that things should be engineered better absolutely but you gotta start using that big brain of yours, cause you have shown us you have it!!! Great video to start Monday off with!!! Loved your side by side one as well!!! Keep them coming!!

[@MAVORlC]

Love his videos but he really does put himself in some stupid situations that are completely avoidable We obviously all do stupid shit before we learn a lesson, unfortunately Andrews job often involves them being filmed

[@donaldo1954]

It always amazes me the effort someone will go to just to have a place away from the homebase even though the homebase is in a setting most people would characterize as a remote wooded area. Not criticizing his decision!

[@lindamitchell-fox1926]

It’s all about a basecamp for snowmobiling and maybe atv riding….I’m guessing.

I miss Jake... my Yellow Lab that use to follow/lead me in my TJ as I wheeled around much of west (Nor. Cal, CO, Utah etc.) Your dog reminded me of him as I watched this.

[@Well_I_am_just_saying]

That bumper pulled off of there for no good reason at all. I mean, when you pull on it with a D7 dozer that should not happen. That bumper was tinfoil junk! I can't wait for the video where Andrew designs and builds a new front bumper for that truck.

[@cooletijdgast]

That camper does look freaking fancy, nice spot for the night!

Like the pull up the mountain. Like the C7 pull in the steeper grades. Like the camper. Like the land. Love Cody.

[@VideosClassAct]

Loved the drone footage at the end. What an amazing property! Be sure to shovel the snow off the roof or it will collapse under the weight. And mice are a big problem. Stay on top of those buggers or the RV will soon be unlivable. I live in an RV full time on a mountain top, so this is from experience.

That camper is crazy big with opposing slide outs! Camarata, for all the hard work and determination you have I cant think of a more deserving person than you! You can't take anything with you when you leave this world so ya better enjoy it while your here! Cool video and you got cool friends that'll let you drag them up a mountain!

Amazing start to my week, thanks Andrew. Loved when Cody was lab inspecting laid down on the sofa whilst you two sweating it out pushing that compartment out. This video really shows how stubborn to get something done you are. wonderful work ethic!

You should manufacture a hitch for that dozer to take a ball and tow the camper with the dozer.

Absolutely gorgeous views man! Also, after watching your videos for years I think that’s the most “frustrated” I think I’ve ever seen you get lol nail biter ride up and that camper is nicer than my apartment!

[@usmcsam4821]

Hindsight always 20/20. Could have just hooked the camper to the dozer for the whole trip up the trail. Save a bumper and all the extra dozer clearing work. I thought he for sure when he switched dozers , he was going hitch the dozer to the trailer, since the truck was useless dead weight. Caveman chronicles getting it done, no matter what.

[@berettaboi]

Likely not a hitch hookup on either dozer. Could have chained things to hell and back, but the truck was ultimately a suspension buffer so the trailer didn't get *all of the jostling

[@usmcsam4821]

@@berettaboi In this case, whether it is hitched to a dozer or a truck, makes ZERO difference. You are rough off road and the trailer itself is bouncing all over the place no matter what is pulling.
