Completed the installation of the JT Strongarms today. I drilled the T-bolts and added stainless steel wire with a swivel to keep from loosing them while rolling down the highway

I got bored, so I replaced the OEM plastic battery box with a 316 stainless steel box with a hinged lid. I know it's overkill, but it looks cool My co-worker was laughing while I was making it saying it looks like a miniature smoker/BBQ grill. Might be big enough to smoke hotdogs.

Just brought my trailer in for it's first annual maintnenance. While it was there I had them drop the rear leaf springs down two holes to raise the trailer up two inches. Now my trailer actually hitches up level with my truck. And that's after raising the pin box all the way up about two inches and lowering the bed of my truck on the air suspension about two inches so it sits level. Not rear high like it was with the old leaf springs under the truck.
That's the only complaint is that KZ sets their trailers up sitting too low.
Pictures to follow

Pictures to follow Had the same problem with our Montego Bay but our new Stoneridge sits level when hooked up with no changes to the factory setup. Maybe they got the message and started setting them up a little higher when they build them.

Here's the pics of the closet I modified for the cat litter box. The walls and floor are lined with white corrugated polypropylene and there is an additional sheet of clear polycarbonate on the bottom. White silicone caulk is used on all seams. There is also a length of aluminum angle along the bottom lip of the closet to protect the edge from damage when removing the litter box.

We ordered the wood panels for our refridgerator to match the kitchen cabinets from our KZ dealer. After seeing the 2013 KZ trailers my wife just couldn't live without them. Of course they weren't cheep. Unfortunately they came Friday with the freezer door panel damaged. So until I get the replacement no pics.

Majorloser, How did you go about ordering the panels for the fridge. My wife would love to have those. Ours has the black plexiglass look

Majorloser, How did you go about ordering the panels for the fridge. My wife would love to have those. Ours has the black plexiglass look They ain't cheap. The dealer I bought the trailer from ordered them from KZ and had them drop shipped to me. He only needed the model number of our fridge to place the order. The black plastic panels are removable along the opening edge of the doors. You carefully pull the black plastic edge off the side of the door and it slides out the grove. The new wood panels have a sheet of paneling on the back to give them a small lip around the edges that fits in the fridge door groove.
