    1997 t4r has super duty axles, 5.13s locked front and rear. 3 link front with 14" kings. Rear 63s.
    Parts that were ordered came from etrailer and ruff stuff. The hinges came from a local trailer shop. I'm still looking to find ideas

    I picked up a arb awning the bigger one along with a tent attachment for it. That will be storage/dog/changing room.

    Nice man. A lot of fab work and $$$ in that diamond plate. Really like the slide out tables.

    On the swig out in the back I'll have a fold down table to put the propane camp grill on
