I fabricated a aluminum frame and enclosed it with thin fiberglass sheeting. the bottom folds down in front for the Blue Boy to roll out. the lock bar I use for leverage.


Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most.

Boy I wish I had half as much room under my TT as some of you do. No way to mount anything under my Kiwi. Would love to put a sewer hose storage unit under the TT but will cannot find a location that is high enough and not cause issues with dragging. Hey the blue tote is as high as the sewer outlet pipe... Be thankful for your tall TT's.

You may be right as far as not having room on TT, but if you look at my profile you will see it is a 5er and they usually have more clearance. for your sewer hose ,if you have a bumper you can strap a PVC pipe on it and stick your sewer hose in to it.

On our Keystone 29BHS Cougar Xlite, the belly is covered, except for the forward most section just before the Hitch/Propane area. I have a 32 gal Blue 4 wheel tote. It fit up between the braces quite nicely. I strapped it in there and locked it up with a combination Lock.

Just a little heads up for everyone with a tote, you might want to pop off the caps that hold the wheels on the axles and drill them for a cotter key. I was hulling mine to the dump station one time and had the cap come off and then the wheel.

Just drill thru the axle with a 1/8” drill bit about 3/16” to ¼” from where the end of the cap was then add a washer and cotter key to both ends. Might just save you from doing it at the camp site.

Pour a cup of bleach in the tot and fill it with water for your trip back to the camper on your last night then just dump it at the station on your way out an you won’t have any odor problems.
