    That's a good number. He only needs to do a quick FBMP search to find out that you are in the correct realm. You should not feel like you are low balling him.

    What a miserable job to do! I figured out the hard way that the tires mounted easier from the spindle side of the wheel.

    I need to hunt down some wheel bushings or bearings, the one side was so sloppy that when I measured the bore of the bushing it was about .090 oversize!

    One of the hardest things I've ever done. Drilling a hole in my SmartCap to install solar. No going back now.PXL_20250601_224505750.jpg PXL_20250601_224544707.jpg

    Here’s my ‘84 u-haul troy-built horse i restored a few years ago. The guy at the end is the person i purchased the tiller from for $200. He was headed to the scrap yard with it. This is all original except for tines and wheels. It special built for u-haul with the original Subaru commercial engine. I still use it today - pic is this year’s garden.

    Yeah that's it. It's a camper shell, bed topper, whatever you want to call it. I bought the contractor/white version of what is pictured. Raptor lined it black. In the process of installing a basic solar to provide lighting and such to the bed without having to run wiring all the way from the battery. Drilling holes in a 4K shell is somewhat stressful. That said I'm going to put some lightning on the outside and in the interior, and plan on expanding things at some point in the future. Right now it's going to stay pretty basic, with a deep cell battery, as a good lithium ion battery looks to be at least 200 to $400 and up to over a thousand or two.

    That looks great!

    Where did you get decals for it?

    I've been thinking about taking mine apart and painting it. It was my wife's grandma's and the paint is very thin.

    And if anyone is wondering, I left the top white to try to control heat inside the topper and around the solar panel.
