I extended my fender to be a table . I used some RV channel and PVC pipe for a leg. I covered the board withe Flexseal.
I got the RV channel from here http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I did a little work on my M416. First up was a dual pneumatic tire tongue wheel. I'm hoping for better rolling on a rough surface. I took the tongue to my local welder and he widened the bracket.
Second up I built up a cooler slider. My 45qt Yeti is heavy when loaded and a PIA to drag out to get into. I bought 100lb sliders from Lowes and some aluminium angle iron. I went with 4 X 3. A plywood board is the base for the slide which I painted with black Flexseal.

It took a little adjusting to get the slider frame square and level but works just fine.

Wow, great out of the box thinking! I like the fender table. I wish I had a drop tailgate in mine but I never had the heart to cut that big of a piece off. I really like the dually trailer jack. That's really cool. How does it roll on dirt and what's the diameter of the tires?
