This. Hang with nails and go back and hit with screws once all the boards are hung.

This is the fastest way. After you do that, pop a chalk line over each runner for the length of the run and make all of your screws perfectly straight. It takes five extra minutes but looks really good if your particular about shite like that.

These look really good. I go to
Dallas every few weeks and I’ll stop by. I really like the windows. If we can get the stand with the full handrails, I think this is a done deal.

I appreciate the feedback

Those look nice. I’m sure you can order whatever but do y’all have handrails and a standing platform by the door?

I know some of the handrails are a bit restrictive when trying to get in the stand and I’d like to keep things as easy as possible.

coat the bottom with this and send it

I think the coating ideas suggested may be a good solution. At least they've got options.

A friend’s young son saved up to buy a flat boat and my friend let him do it to let him learn how things work and try and to negotiate a deal for himself. The only stipulation was to buy a boat/trailer with papers. The boy found an old crud covered boat with papers. After looking at it and checking for no glaring issues, he negotiated a decent deal for the old aluminum flat boat (no motor) and trailer. The title and registration was transferred to my friend as the boy is a minor.

The boat had some old built-in hatches in the back that were removed to just get an open flat boat and prepare it for new foam and decking. Once those hatches and some saturated foam were removed issue were found and the boat has pin holes all over that were previously filled with crud. The boat is in less than stellar shape and to fix it would seam to be just a waste of money.

I was talking with my friend and I asked what if they found another similar sized old flat boat in better shape for a deal with just a bill of sale and use the papers from the old crappy boat for the newer boat. He could use the hull ID number from the properly registered boat and have a better starting point. I know this is shady but what are the repercussions? How would green jeans know? I realize this isn’t the most ethical thing to do but is this a possible loophole?

For your troubles

Still shopping around. Thought I was set on the Ridge Grapplers but now I'm considering Toyo Open Country AT3s or Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A/Ts. I've heard a lot of good things about the Toyos but not much about the MTs, anyone have any experience? I appreciate the help.

The downside of 22" rims I guess...

---

No kidding...I bought this truck used and never really even thought about the 22" rims causing the tires to be THAT much more. I'm now thinking I may need to buy smaller rims and sell the ones I've got.
I always tell my kids about an "idiot tax" they pay when dealing with repercussions after having done something foolish. I feel as though I'm paying that tax now.
:violin:

Autoville is about the same price as Phil, about $3 cheaper per tire but I need to buy a $25/tire road hazard for the lifetime rotation/balancing that Phil offered with his tires.

Superior Tire is $2,955 for the Recons - the Recons look about the same but have actually come with a warranty and are slightly cheaper than the Ridge Grapplers

why nittos?

That's what I've got on the truck now and they've lasted a good while and they're quiet. I'm open to other suggestions but I've just had a good experience with those so far.

I've been holding off for as long as possible but I need new tires for my truck. Where's the best place to get tires on the northshore? Looking for Nitto RidgeGrapplers 35x12.50 R22 LT
