Campershell mods for travel trailer towing



Making struts to hold the lift gate on the Aerolid up in the air high enough to point at a 8 ft height off the ground 4 ft behind the truck for travel trailer towing. I will install another set of struts in front of the one shown to triangulate the sides. Then we want to install bracing across the back to triangulate the lift gate transversely.

After the bracing gets built I need to fabricate side curtains which I will U Bolt to the side struts. The whole assemblage will remain open in the back when I am towing the trailer.
