rear section has now been removed again .. time to start working on that .

Originally , the back half sits on a "winnabego" frame , that mounts to the Toyota frame . Bushings were toast , and not worthy of the new set-up .. got me to thinkin'

The Original mounts , I dont think were sufichant , because of all of the "leaks" I hear about , so I thought a softer compound mount would work better with the flexing , and handle a better "sway" of the back 1/2 . So I ended up purchacing some NEW "special" mounts , and some steel to make a new frame .

got it all "tacked up " under the body , so now time to weld it all up .

another "goofy" part of the Trekkers is the rear lamps .. They have these silly metal " u " brackets that hold the lamps in place .. you have to drill a hole in your lamps , and mount them to the brackets ??? dumb .....

so took the pockets from the 79-83 beds I build , and glassed them into the Trekker

Very rough right now .. but at least they will be easy to install , and RE & RE .
