    drifter build up

    Hey all,
    I stumbled upon this forum today. I'm a little bit mad about drifters.
    I have recently done one up, well still doing one up. just doing toolbox and gas storage atm. I decided not to put a new heavy draw bar and frame because i wanted the weight to stay down.
    Here are some photos, well heaps of photos, main one to look at are the first few of when i got it and then the last few with the new canvas. some people will find them all interesting. Pictures by justahobby1 - Photobucket

    I decided against cable lift. Last thing i wanted was issue in the middle of no where, worst thing that can happen with mine is a spring will break and become heavy, but i will still be able to get the roof up and sleep.

    Cheers sean

    Beautiful rebuild Sean and thx for the photos. I saw your album as I was searching for a camper and it helped me decide that a cub was the right choice for me.

    Have you done any trips yet? How did they go?

    I decided to rotate the main bed in my camper 90 degrees so there is more leg and head room, and easier for my wife and I to get in/out without having to climb over each other. To do it I needed to modify the table design.

    Table now has two hinge points so it can be lowered 170mm. This height is now the "bed" height as well as the travelling "roof down" level.

    On the lowered table, a bed extension is slid out from under the mattress.

    Works really well.

    The height and strength is achieved by a simple gate looking universal table leg that is rectangular. 530mm for lower level, 700mm for higher level. In the lower position, the table is re-enforced with some screw in table legs.
