Thank you Brian for this video. Nice of that guy to show you and us all of his modifications. He did a very good job! Hope to see you soon! Tell Erin hello.
Hell yah! I'm a former (Canadian) Combat Engineer and all these hacks really get me excited. I will absolutely be utilizing the majority of them. Thanks to you for posting...and to your subject for being friggin awesome! 🫡🫡🫡
Ben! You are the storage master! I am not sure if I want my husband to watch this or not. So many good ideas but so many rabbit holes to go down too. Though that dishwasher . . . wow. I need to add the Ikea rail next to my side of the bed, I am up against the wall so no place to put anything. Awesome upgrades and amazing use of space.
Thanks so much for sharing his rig with us. Such amazing ideas. Five of us have been full time for over three years and are always looking for new storage ideas. This was great!
We also the the Hughes Watch dog and the Rv Whisper setup. It's awesome to be able to monitor the power and temps when the dogs can't go with us for the day. Love all the mods you have done!
Beeeeeeeeeeeeeennnnn! YOUR A GENIUS BRO! These mods are amazing. I love the small details and honestly love how proud you are of your work. i can tell there was a lot of thought that went into all of this. Good work man. Thank you for the inspiration. I will definitely be using some of these ideas on my rig. Also, you are an engineer by trade right? You have to be. lol
Brian - RV Lock makes locks for Class A's - we have one and love it. Ben - I used a Moryde 200% sliding tray and keep my Camp Chef on it - it pulls away far enough from the coach to use without moving it to another table and I can keep the propane line connected (turn it off at the tank when not in use).
Thanks for you videos...I'm about to buy my first RV and I can happily say you have jump started my knowledge in what I would and could do to make my camping time with the family more enjoyable
Your wood slide out tray is great. If you apply some Johnsons Paste Wax to all the sliding surfaces it will move very easily and will probably eliminate the sound when you pull it out.
Wow, Ben did a fabulous job and I’ve stolen three of his ideas. Lol. I’m also ordering another Ring Alarm system for my trailer because I never thought about putting contact sensors on the outside storage doors. Great idea! I already have the Ring system in my house and I love it.
Brilliant mods. My friend who lives in a small apartment (They have no counter space, and it's a rental, so no mods.) just got one of those micro dishwashers for Christmas. He raves about it. The dishes come out great. It lives on a cart, and he snakes the drain hose to the sink. If you have no way to do a real dishwasher, this dishwasher may be your answer.
The "high tech" long lasting solution for eliminating the drawer noise, and making for a smoother glide, is UHMW plastic. It's sold in many forms, but can also be re-purposed cutting boards (if the available dimensions work for the space). It's commonly used in tablesaw fences, any many other tool accessories. Or, lignum vitae if you want to get real fancy. 😆
use high-density polyethylene plastic (HDPE) cut into strips on the underside of the slide out, Its the same material as cutting boards, super slick, super hard and cuts nice. find it at your big box home improvement stores. I built a truck box to store all my construction tools in, drawers pull out one handed
Some higher end class A’s and fifth wheels have analog or more traditional buttons and switches because of the clientele. Generally older folks are buying them and don’t want to miss with an iPad or touchscreen type control system
There are some rails on top that prevent the tray from tipping out. I’ve been able to easily get about 2/3rds of the way out without any give on the rails.
That’s pretty awesome! Thank you for responding. Would you be willing to share a couple pictures as I have a variation of the shelves and thought ext legs would do and never thought of a tray with in. Thanks in advance if you can other wise, stay safe and enjoy your new baby and travels Sent from my iPhone Regards,
Holy crap Ben you are a genius with all the modifications!
😂 Thanks Jessie!
@@triphius you are welcome! From one roadrunner to another. I hope to buy a 5th wheel at some point in the future.
We’ll definitely be buying a 5th wheel at some point and then all this fun gets to happen again!
Rub a white candle on those wood guides to lube it up 😎
This guys is my new hero. I want to do all of this.
Ben’s RV is an engineering marvel! Everything is so well engineered.
The garage storage is very impressive! The PVC pipe as a drill holder. Those garage setup game is crazy!
I love the slide outs mainly because it’s the only thing I fully understood and may can replicate. Lol
LOL

Thanks Sherri, I’m glad you liked them!

Yeah... on the dishwasher... I just knew we’d do better having it, especially with the baby bottles and whatnot.
I keep looking around for somewhere to use those rails...
DUDE!!!!
Such amazing, easy to do modifications!!! Thanks for sharing!!
Lots of great mods. Love the rv locks. One touch and unit is locked. No more walking around checking every single door.
Ben, you’re a freakin genius! Love these mods!
Happy Father’s day to both of you kind gentlemen
Thank you for sharing this with us
You’re a genius
May you be blessed
Nice job Ben. I like your ideas. Very smart guy
I would love to see the storage tray design for the front exterior compartment
Agreed! Especially would like to know what drawer sliders he used!

Great job! Nice mods, especially liked the slide out shelf!
Thanks Cindy!
I hope you were compensated for your time and for sharing ALL of your amazing tricks with us, Ben! I wish I had a handy partner like you. 🙏
What time is the slide out shelf?
Love the storage slide, I have 6 volt batteries too, love them!! Pretty creative!!

I've watched this video three times. The storage on this is crazy good. An the apps. Man you've enlightened me.
Easy way to get rid of that sound when pulling out the drawers is to throw down a few strips of the soft Velcro side. Great mods!
Wow!! I'm so impressed with Ben's RV hacks. Great job.
Need/solution. Brilliant!
Great video...we just got our 2800BH and will be adding the supports for the rear bumper...great ideas throughout this video...
This guy is a genius and needs to work for a RV company.
Thanks Elizabeth!
I agree but RV companies will not pay his worth! IF I had a lot of money, I would hire him to organize my life.
Fr am trying to buy an RV and I need the same amount of space he have 😩 please hmu if u work for people and get paid cause ur RV look so beautiful 😍
Can you post his TH-cam account name also ?
Forget the rv companies, start his own bissn
Wow!! What a fabulous fabulous rig!! I love all the modifications!!
LOVE all the cool gadgets added to the RV. Thank you SO much for sharing :-)

They don't make locks for *my* Class A 😕
@@Five2Go Oh that is a bummer because we love remote entry!
Great ideas. A bit difficult to see well but the descriptions were great. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for all the great information that can be done!
Thanks Cathy!
I really like this video, sharing and meeting people
Just WOW. Great setup Ben!
Oh my god, 5 minutes to wapner, charlie babbit! So amazing ocd, storage, love it!
Some of the most impressive mods I've seen! Great job.
Great video - can’t wait to see more custom mods!!!
Thanks!
Awesome video. Just one thing missing. THE BABY! Lol I totally understand if they don’t want to show the kids.
Thanks Ben that was some great things to add to an RV.
All this equipment is so neat, definitely gonna try some to our unit in the summer!
Thanks!
Love love love the bins and folding table organization!
That was some great ideas... Thanks for sharing
Thanks!
Those are some fantastic mods! Love the storage in front! The IKEA rods are great too.. heading to IKEA.. thanks for another great video! #superfan
Love the videos, keep them coming... and safe travels.
Great job on all those mods!
Nice job, a lot of good ideas you have shared here. Thank you.
Outstanding work.
Thanks for you videos...I'm about to buy my first RV and I can happily say you have jump started my knowledge in what I would and could do to make my camping time with the family more enjoyable
Wow he did a great job I want to steal a few ideas now. Great great job and video. Let him know I like it.
Thanks! I’m glad I was able to provide some inspiration!
Your wood slide out tray is great. If you apply some Johnsons Paste Wax to all the sliding surfaces it will move very easily and will probably eliminate the sound when you pull it out.
Awesome ideas. One question/possible concern- how much weight does all this add up to? I’d be curious if it’s been scaled
Love his shirt! Great ideas and planning.
Love the pass-through tray. I've been wanting to do the same.
I wonder what this trailer weights now with all of these modifications?
Wow, Ben did a fabulous job and I’ve stolen three of his ideas. Lol. I’m also ordering another Ring Alarm system for my trailer because I never thought about putting contact sensors on the outside storage doors. Great idea! I already have the Ring system in my house and I love it.
How to build the slide tray would make a great video
Super great mods. I am assuming they are a fulltime family, but great ideas for weekend warriors too. Shared it on one of my Facebook Groups.
Actually, we’re still part timers. But who knows what the future holds. Thanks for sharing... I hope that others can be inspired by what we’ve done.
Wow! That was fun and inspiring!
Very cool mods and handyman !!
Brilliant mods.

Nice job on the under belly storage area!
Unreal how cool he made his rv
You're my kind of RV geek! Very nice mods - giving my ideas.
Nice video - some excellent ideas to implement.
Thanks Ted! Glad you liked it!
FANTASTIC
Wow great mods on that unit
nice camper cool modifications
Thanks Denny!
Ben, you are my RV mod idol! Awesome work!
I need to,learn more about electrical, this is so good
My only concern would be the weight. Especially with the half ton truck. But brilliant design!
He is a genius for sure!!! Hey for the noise on the sliding drawer use some surf board wax
Incredible job.
Thanks for the very informative video. Lots of great ideas.
Great Job, Love it! Thank you for sharing the tips!
Have a nice day
You too!
awesome! thanks again for sharing!
Thanks Tom! Glad you liked the mods!

I really enjoyed your video and was wondering if you had a video on adding solar. I looked through your playlist but couldn’t find anything.
We don't have any solar - other than the occasional Walmart parking lot to break up a long drive, we're full hookup campers 😉
Cooper Tire out of Canada has countertop dishwasher too
The dishwasher was very handy, especially to clean all the baby stuff.
Ben is great at organizing!
Great job. Thanks for sharing
We just bough a 2021 twighlight trailer yesterday!! Need to try some of this.
Amazing !!! 🙏. Brilliant !!! Superb!!
Some higher end class A’s and fifth wheels have analog or more traditional buttons and switches because of the clientele. Generally older folks are buying them and don’t want to miss with an iPad or touchscreen type control system
Great stuff! Thanks for sharing
I am curious as to how much tongue weight was added with all the mods and items in storage.
Me too........ that's already a lot of trailer to be towing with a half ton Silverado
A 1000 lbs 🤣
Good job ben.
It looks great, however, I would like to see how all these affected payload on the RV. It is usually pretty limited as it is
Love all the mods!!!
Great Ideas but I wish you showed that he slide system for the pull outs in the. Storage compartments
Well thought out system good work
Awesome hacks!
Do you have a link or shortcut to his internet setup? Very interested in that.
How long is his RV? I’m guessing 35ft?
Great content! Thanks for sharing! This dude deserves a medal for these tweaks.
Really cool mods! We have pepwave too!! We love it!!
Really neat ideas
Awesome job!
Ben did you do anything special to your tow vehicle to pull that 2800bh?
Absolutely marvelous! Can you please (pretty please) provide the name or link for those Ikea "cups" which hang from bedroom rails?!?
Great modifications but how is the outdoor storage tray anchored so it doesn’t tip down when the drawer is pulled out? Thanks!!
There are some rails on top that prevent the tray from tipping out. I’ve been able to easily get about 2/3rds of the way out without any give on the rails.
That’s pretty awesome! Thank you for responding. Would you be willing to share a couple pictures as I have a variation of the shelves and thought ext legs would do and never thought of a tray with in. Thanks in advance if you can other wise, stay safe and enjoy your new baby and travels

Yeah, when I get some time I’ll take pictures. Probably will just have to share them on Discord though... not sure if YT lets you post photos.
I love the shirt . 😂 smart man
