On our epic F550 Cabover spot light series, we show you how to install a subframe on and F550-like vehicle truck frame. This time, a four point subframe is used, as well as our crossmember pivot frame gussets. Come on along with us as we have a little fun with this project.
Our website is located at www.rvglobetrekker.com
You can order habitats, subframes, and all the accessories directly from the website.

Some very good explainer videos. I have not seen this level of diy support from other companies. In fact tried to check out one company and their website seemed more designed to shift a potential customer off to a retailer with out providing detailed specs, pricing etc. So thanks again for going above and beyond with this channel and your company.

We are trying to educate alongside the showcase of our products. We understand that not everyone is going to see things through our eyes. So, having their eyes wide open will hopefully save them from buyer's remorse in the years to come if they fall victim to a slick sales pitch that binds them into making a blind decision. We chose to be transparent. What makes you wonder is why those others don't want you to know the details of their products?

More to come, my friend!

I like geeking out with this stuff. Light weight plus strength. Beats the overkill factor.

@RVGlobeTrekker 2 года назад

Engineered solutions provide the strength at the lowest weight. Those that do no engineering have to overbuild everything, because they don't know if it will fail or not. Result: boated overweight vehicle that is less off-road capable. If your are going to buy a great sub-frame, your best bet is to go with a full engineered solution.

I need this with a flat surface for when I am not trekking the globe

We have you covered. Upgrade to our ISO Zero Torsion subframe system with habitat corner mounting ISO brackets. Easy on and off with camper jacks. Call me for more details.

I think it's the very first torsion-free subframe made for Ford F-550. Great!!! The side toolboxes can be attached to the subframe, not to the main frame?

@RVGlobeTrekker 2 года назад

So, these subframes made by Globe Trekker can be though of as the "adapter plate" for any vehicle from 24" to 42" width truck-frames. This covers just about everything on the road that is street legal. Toolboxes can be attached to the subframe, but we recommend attaching directly to the truck frame, since that is where the weight is eventually transferred to. Great question!

how much does the subframe weigh?

@RVGlobeTrekker 3 месяца назад

This is a 12' 4-point, meaning it has a crossmember pivot front and rear, and two axial pivots in the middle, topped with a platform we call the weldment. It is hot dip galvanized for inside and outside protection, and has two powder coat layers (one primer, and one hammer tone black). Subframe weldments can be powder coated in a range of colors for a small fee to cover the costs of the range of colors. It weighs 779 pounds.

10,000$$$$$$$

My advice... shop around. Try to find the best deal on an engineered torsion free subframe for less. Make sure it is engineered and not just welded up by a fabricator who over-builds because they have no idea how to calculate true loading conditions. Also, ensure it is protected from corrosion. Ours is hot dipped galvanized for inside and outside protection, primered and powder coated. The finishing process is $2K alone.
