How is that possible unless you feed her?

Making a person lose weight is hard...a dog is easy...you just control the amount of food and frequency  :biggthumpup:

Do you exercise the dog or does she lay around and sleep a lot?

The old awning was apparantly ripped off at some point...I removed this in case I want to put a new one on.....Its a ten footer awning channel and awnings are usually 7 feet wide...thats a big awning.



THe previous owner lost the key to the step door so he had been using a screwdriver to open and close it  :shake:




THe aluminum is cleaning up nice....and look at that canvas!! It IS actual Carhart material....pretty cool.
  :king:





Underside starting to look better



She's gettin there...

how about you add a shackle in your suspension on that pig? it should help with the :bumpinbutts: that always happens in a 70s rig like that.

the two wires are not ebrake, they are electric trailer brakes, one is hot, the other is ground, goes to the frame.

It's a "slipper style" leaf spring....seems to work pretty well for what it is.. The end of the spring slides back and forth in a mount when it flexes

also...by "ebrake" he really meant "electric brake"   :biggthumpup:

We'll see how she tows first...

I made this homemade tire leveler out of 1 x 8"

I aint no carpenter but it still turned out ok....






I picked up this cheap awning.....

Should match with my new paint scheme too..





I also started disassembling the lock and rebuilding the door where the previous owner had mangled it.

Your leveler is too dang long. My motorhome has shorter ones than that and has a much larger contact area.

My entire leveler is about half of yours. Each step is just long enough for my tread patch.

Take the 1st step off and shove one between the 2nd and 3rd, that should be perfect.
