My brand new 2 1/2" extended shank (so I can open the tailgate) that doubles for my Andersen W/D hitch and the EZ/HD in the box.

Unfortunately, it is the wrong part. Too much drop:(

As long as you asked, FedEx brought two Maxxair vent covers. I suppose now I have something to do.....

Get out the saw and cut it off! Easy fix!

I could and probably would except it is supposed to me a custom made size. I am not paying extra for the something I have to cut off.

Congratulations !!! Only about 6 weeks to go and the brown truck can take a break until after your first camping trip, then it'll start all over again. Get used to having an almost daily delivery for the first year, maybe longer. Of course that mostly depends on your credit card balance and your spouse's tolerance for packages on the porch..... :hide:

Oh boy!! You’re probably right because I haven’t even started on the outdoor items yet. All deliveries so far are from my boss filling the inside.

Ksupaul- If you are a DIY-er, you're just getting started. What fun.

Hahaha! That means you've got a guilt-free ride so far. You've got a lot of catching up to do.

Well as Brown said, my air bags just showed up. Signing for them was a lot easier than the work required to install them !

Well, it probably all depends...:) After we built this last house a new neighbor came in and started building one across the street. One day the electrician (my friend and my electrician) was over working at the house wiring it and I was in the yard planting grass. He came out of the garage on stilts looking really weird so I razzed him. I forgot that I was in a T shirt, mid thigh shorts, over the calf socks, cowboy boots and hat (it was 100+). I was cut pretty short as I tried to explain my attire......:eek: Oh well. The silk long johns do work better than thermals though....;)

Not yet! I guess that 40 degree weather yesterday put the brakes on the sled coming from Jacksonville....

Yes, at this point my fingers are crossed. Still waiting on the stickers. Probably three weeks out still.

well thy almost brought my Furrion camera and It was a good thing I was tracking it because they left by someone else`s door. After several phone calls and me talking to the driver I ran it down about a mile down the road. Figured it was already in a pawn shop somewhere lol.

BBT brought me two lower link arms for the 3 PTH on my TEA-20 tractor. I broke one going over a grader ridge while I was blowing snow last Friday. It snapped right at the bolt hole. There was a small crack that was rusted so it could have been that way for a bit.

The old girl is 55 years old so I guess those arms have done a lot of work over the years. I got two because the other arm might not be far behind.

I did some clean-up on the tractor and painted the new arms. Will let the paint cure overnight and install them tomorrow. It will only take 15 or 20 minutes.

We had 5" of snow this morning and it is still snowing so I guess I will be blowing snow tomorrow.

I understand tailgates can be a bit expensive to replace. I put a gear clamp on the right side.

Well, it was yesterday and not today, but he brought me my new Husky over the receiver mud flaps. The Rock Tamers? were highly thought of on the forum and I was going to get those but they do not have the cut out at the bottom of the sleeve to go over the gusset on the Equalizer shank. Now, if I can get the sleeve ground out enough to go over the shank (it had rounded instead of square corners).

I've done the same! One 59 cent clamp has locked the last 2 truck tailgates.

A couple of extra quick connects for my outdoor faucet. I'll put one on the showerhead and one on a standard outdoor hose.

The brown truck arrived Sat with a Dee Zee toolbox to sit on top of my new to arrive next week RDS 40gal fuel tank, along with a 12v norm closed SS valve, a diesel fuel line install kit and new 12v disconnect for the RV. The tool box will have to be cut down to about 10in tall to make it fit under bed cover but metal work is my craft so that shouldn't be an issue. Looking forward to getting it all installed along with a new Encore bed cover.

I needed that last year when my tailgate was stolen. 5k to replace, glad insurance covered it, but that was a learning experience.

Today, the brown truck brought a new Instant Pot for the camper, replacement Oxygenics shower head and 1/4 turn shower faucet along with a roll of "scrim"? tape and some sheets of Darco fabric....just in case somewhere down the line. Camping time is here....gotta be prepared.
