    We already popped it open and later in it but she did the whole girl, "its not the same thing", thing.

    Any good light wheeling camping spots around Leavenworth? Were thinking of river tubing in that area.

    There are always guys to help in different areas. I did my lift by myself with limited tools. It is pretty simple. Just make sure you have the appropriate parts. The only thing i didn't do myself is the extended break lines and system flush. Had a local shop do that for $40.

    Oh ya, duh... I should have known that.

    We lived in Bothell for a while but moved back to our home town about 7 months ago. We are just putting the Bothell house on the market the 1st of August.

    That is part of the reason for the move. She is going to work for/ take over her dads commercial real estate company. She needed to be closer to him to learn the business. But, yes, for now she has to put up with way too much traffic.

    Were hoping so and its looking promising. We just dumped a bunch of time/money into getting it finished. Were probably going to be listing it on the high market side to make a profit but I guess we will see.

    If it doesn't sell for our asking price, that will be our next option but were hoping for a quick sale so we can get started on buying or building a house down here. Were trying in my in-laws, in-law house lol

    Extremely jealous of all these RTTs, and this meet coming up! I have family in town, otherwise I'd be there. There is an ARB RTT mounted on an All Pro Offroad rack on CL right now for $1800... a little steep for used stuff, but I did almost offer up $1400-1500 last week... decided against it since I have 2 dogs that are always with me when I'm camping. I did however pull the trigger on F/R assembled 3rds with 5.29 gears from ECGS! I'm pumped! They should ship out this Friday and I'll have them hopefully next week. 5.29s will be a little over geared for my undersized 315/75r16 KM2's that actually measure out to about 33.4". But they'll be perfect for 37s in the near future... or considering trying out the 345/75r16 KM2s. They're advertised as 36.4" tall x 13.4" wide. Given the fact that KM2's are notorious for running significantly smaller than advertised, I could expect them to be 35.5-36".

    If it is the same one I looked at he said he would not separate the rack and the tent.
