flipped the extra wheels w/hubs for $120 within 24 hrs. win :thumbup:

grabbed some ball hitch and receiver locks as well, stupid me forgot all the points where someone could detach this thing and take of with it.

tires are mounted up. tomorrow i should be headed to ATL to grab 11 sheets of the 5x5', 1/8" baltic birch sheets that will make up the inside walls, inside hatch, and outside skin (under the aluminum top skin). after that, last stop is the hardware store for some plywood and insulation, and the raw materials will pretty much be piled up and ready to build the cabin frame. just a matter of time until i can get to it while i get some other "real" work out of the way.

clearance is great even without spacers, proving i only suck at math about 95% of the time. 2.5" tire to frame rail, and figure the wall will stick out about 3/4" (it covers the frame rail on the outside so you can't see it) leaving me a good amount of remaining breathing room.







the wheel paint is deceptive. it looks nice but i think i messed up a bit on prep. its been kind of easy to chip so i may need to recoat the lip especially, or just throw a chrome trim ring on and forget about it.
