I wanted mud flaps but I wanted them wider than the fender.(problem with the skirt) I needed room for the skirt so I cut the mud flap and hinged it together, this way I can fold part of the mud flap towards the wheel and out of the way.






Increased the width of the step by 2 1/2".

This is for pods with bunks. built a little stool that you can sit or stand on, slide it from side to side or lift it off, fold the leg under and store beside toilet.

I used a 360 degree sprinkler head to flush out black water tank.

 Marwayne you always amaze me with the work you do. I may try the black tank flush its simple and it looks like it would help clean the tank. Thank you,  David

The step extension is one of our favorite mods, we initially did it for the old dog, but us humans like it quite a bit too.. LOL

That's a big mud flap, nothing going to get past those. I like the larger step, when I raised ours up I had thought about moving it out 11/2 to 2 inches. Still like to do that but someone else say's that I have better things to do with my time.      Goose

Nice innovations. Once again someone else's mods has me thinking! :)
