My previous TT (a Forest River R-Pod) kept me very busy with mods because frankly, there were several things that I didn't like about the design. I added sewer hose storage, changed the location of the spare tire mount, etc., etc.
I have to say that so far with the Elkmont, I am pretty happy with the layout and function. So far, my mods are pretty minor:
- Added an in-line shower shut-off valve (

- Command hooks on the hallway wall across from the fridge and pantry to hang jackets, pants, etc.
- Installed a storage box on the tongue behind the propane tanks. I used a CONTICO SUV Tuff Bin/Utility Box (Lowe's Item #: 207123; cost: $33) and bolted it directly to the frame. There's a picture of the storage box both alone and installed on my rig, below. This works great for storing the towing goodies and keeps these items out of the trailer or TV.
So, what useful mods have you made to your Elkmont?
