Got the rear awning metal burned in an the pop-pins to keep it in place. Got this idea from TTE30M3's build ! 20200321_134239.jpg20200321_143830.jpg20200321_144513.jpg

Got around to installing the hinge's and latch's to 4 of the doors this weekend. The sheetmetal still needs some triming once i get everything mounted. 20200404_151014.jpg20200404_173420.jpg20200405_143512.jpg

Awesome unit !!
The new wheels and tires look perfect.

Is there a safety pin for the door latches? They look easily opened by passing branches.

Got the (4) side doors wrapped up this weekend and was able to finally try out the tent on top of the trailer ! Chocked the wheels and dropped the rear jack and me and my son climbed on in !
The trailer is very sturdy with little to no movement ! The next Item to tackle is the tongue, I can not stand it. The coupler, even with new parts is not trust worthey to me. There is no way to lcok it into place. Still not 100% sure what I am going to do, but it needs to be changed before any lengthy trips.

I have one of those Coleman 4 man instant tents as well. What a surprisingly great piece of kit. I think it takes longer to get it out of the bag than to set up. I pack it when friends come along that don't have a tent of their own. Prevents them from being embarrassed in front of other guys over not knowing how to pitch a tent...

If you don't have the optional rain fly, I highly recommend it.

Awesome ! I didn't want to spring for the RTT at this point, so I got one of these instead. I will look into the rain fly as well !
