I spar urathaned the shit out of it. Better than buying marine ply at $120 a sheet in my area.

 

Spray urathaned?

 

Spar urethane. Commonly used in marine applications. Great for wood exposed to lots of moisture.

 

I can't speak for trailbutter, but what I've done is get a 4x8 sheet of finished plywood, cut it to fit the wheelwells. Then slather it with spar varnish. Looks good, durable.

 

Exactly what I did.

 

The extra two foot from the 4x8 I put it onto the tailgate. Looked pretty good and was a nice surface to sit on or coleman stove and lantern

 

1196 lbs later, problem solved.

 

She rides pretty good huh?

 

No more vibration, as far as overall ride, not bad, still can pick up speed decently as well as stop, really can't complain as far as overall handling.

I don't have instagram and didn't take the pictures but here it is...

Stylin and Profilin....Looking like a million bucks!

 

Looking forward to using it, wasn't cheap by any means at least to me, but really the best option for me given what I'll use it for.

 

Enjoy! If you have any questions jump in here, or Wander the West and you'll have all the answers.

 

that thing is effing sick dude. Looks amazing. Hell, I would proud to park beside it, let alone drive it around!

 

Was looking at this little 4x6 trailer. https://denver.craigslist.org/search/sss?query=6573784911&sort=rel

Seems usable in some way, only 275lbs empty, looks waterproof, clamshell roof opening. Picture makes it look small but it's 4x6, not much roof room. I keep thinking I can use that thing somehow. Torsion suspension, 4-pin, LED lights inside and out, 500lb cargo capacity.

 

What size panels and what is the outside temps been for you? It is already 90 here.

 

Sorry just finished the read on build.

 

I don't know if yall know what the redarc Manager30 is. But for those that do know, it is being released to North America market around July 15th. Full CE and EL certification.
