    Nice. Strong stuff right here. I have a 30' shot at work I've been eyeballing as a tow rope just in case my strap breaks.

    Well i've been fussing with the bed rack all day. Finally figured out how to mount my awnings! Way simpler now that I've messed with the brackets. In other news i have a roof rack on order with billy. He and I are working up a design for skids that'll cover the on board air solution we worked out today. 200 psi here I come.

    Yeah, 55" awning off the aft, 99" off the starboard side. RTT settles down port side completing the setup. Put up the 55" briefly today. Very cool. Need to re-work the 99" a bit before it's usable. And suspension is next week now. Got pushed back AGAIN due to my busy work schedule. But this is my last week at work so after thursday I'll have A LOT more free time.

    ya would like to know how you worked the 99 awning in. I was planning on getting one but then thought if it would be to large for my bed rack or not

    Well you have to keep in mind my tent is 87" long, so my rack already had to be cantilevered anyhow. I've got a roof rack in the works with Brute force right now and that'll act as a guide bar directing any branches away from the awning on tight trails.

    That's another thing I was going to ask later but might as well now. I have an all pro bed rack bolt together kit and I was planning on getting a cvt. Does it matter the size of the tent for the bed rack or does the size of the tent affect how big your roof rack has to be? was planning to get the Shasta or rainier
