l did not say what l meant to say

yay, l seen those and they look good, l usually have a vertical and horizontal gussets on stress points, so, that is what l should have asked and if that was the plan to add these later on, just me, l like overkill on some parts[

Appreciate the question Skull. Stress on load points important. I will add a large horizontal gusset on the forward side of the rear mounts. This gusset will extend out closer to the attach point. Strong is good.
Get'n excited about stuffing that 6 banger in. Thanks guys for positive thoughts.

 

[Burgerman]

Trimmed the front of the frame, clip fits well now. Brackets will direct forward. Gonna use biscuits again. Avoiding the original rad surround as an attach point in the event I need to modify or remove it.

Thanks Joe. Made a front clip mount today. I will make the base wider to handle the biscuit.

You're making good progress![cl

Been on the sidelines for weeks with the remodel then a disability issue. Got some tools in my hands yesterday. Free if you get this RV out of here. Frame is beefy, 27ft+ older trailer with title.

What the heck. Been needing a trailer. Looking forward to getting back working on the Pilot.

 

[joedoh]

nice score on the trailer! long enough to get you in trouble hauling things home
