Totally agree about going with a truck box. When I bought my 2014 TAB CS-S a few years ago, the original plastic tub was damaged and had to be replaced. I scored a used 5’ long truck box and had it mounted by an RV mechanic. First and best mod I’ve had done. I’m sure the new nucamp platform and boxes are great but I love…
Trying to decide what size storage boxes to buy for either side of tongue box. Just sold our 2018 t@b and am waiting for my new 2023 T@B boondock. Trying to have everything ready when she gets here. :)
It gets confusing with al,the changes. The 2018/2019 had the same frame axle arrangement and CoolCat AC. Our 2018 TaB400 with a heavy truck aluminum tool box on the tongue in place of the tub, weighed in around 400 lbs with empty propane bottle and 1/2 water tank. The nüCamp new Aluminum tongue box is lighter than that…
Hi there. New TAB 400 owner here. Bought the base model with the plastic LP tank storage unit. Want to upgrade it to include storage boxes to either side of the LP storage. What's the best option? Just purchase two storage boxes and install to either side of the LP storage box or remove the stock LP storage box and…
@AnOldUR I like the look of the "new box" better anyway! Looks nice. Did you also have to cut a hole in the back of the box to accommodate the propane hose hookup? What did you use the mount the box to the trailer tongue, and how did you mount the battery box? Thank you!
Yoshi, a No. 4 wire in a 20-foot run is rated for 40 amps using a 25-30 ft run, which for a two wire circuit is a max of 15 feet from battery location to the load source (original battery box). That said, the only reason to connect the new battery bank to the tongue box, would be to power the brakes in an emergency. I…
Installed an aluminum tongue box. Fits great and frees up a lot of room in the TV. Can still get to the propane and battery compartment. The dimensions are 22"H x 34"W x 14"D Used my Cabela's points so it did not cost me anything. Lid has gas shocks and a weather gasket. Took it for a spin to the Grand Canyon last week and…
The new Boondock model comes with an Aluminum tongue box (tub) mounted on top a rack with two side platforms. This adds weight over a non Boondock tab. cheers
Thanks, good to know your previous experience. I would love to help, but our trailer and the new 2021 front tub tongue box are nit ar hand, as the dealer has both to install the new box, and other repairs. I can email the service tech and see if he can get the measurements for you. cheers
