    Stonewall is the fattest 5 lug slug ever
    Stonewall looking halfway decent after a bath and some Meguiar's Ultimate compound. I did this the day before yesterday, but couldn't upload until now, because that night/yesterday, I was taking care of Burg/dealing with the burial. Even that sun-blemished panel looks a lot better. In the first two pics, you can clearly see where I had and hadn't gone over it with the compound. I was doing this by hand.

    Agreed. Tried to do that the first time and it was a paint to get enough good coats on it, so it started peeling off...

    That is so awesome. That is all.

    Really though great job. I hope that one day my lowly truck will look half as good as yours.

    Too many to list now.
    I want my trailer to do that so the annex fully deploys ad you have full use of the lower room. Well done man, my only thing is we've got a lot of water crossings where I live, how do those air shocks do with that?

    Same size and style of what?

    Or are you asking if the 98-00 is the same throughout those 3 years? If so, yes.

    I have 4 kids. When we camp as a family there are 6 of us. I needed a new RTT to fit all of us so I got a tent with an annex so that my wife and I can sleep in the top part of the tent, and my kids will sleep in the annex. The annex is a full 6+ feet high so I need to make the tent higher to be able to use the annex, but didn't want the tent that high all the time.

    No idea. I'll see an occasional water crossing too that would be deep enough to submerge the bottoms of the gas shocks. I would imagine that they are sealed pretty well. If they're sealed enough to keep air in, then they're probably sealed enough to keep water out.

    Awesome Adam! i like the idea of lifting the tent up high the BAMF trailer will have that option for sure. But it's got to be BAMF so maybe linear actuators :cool:
