[QUOTE="Waffle, post: 756691, member: 12726"] Very very pleased! Especially since I bought it right before a 12% price increase. I paid $5100, but best price on a new one is now $5725 & some places are approaching $5900. On the way home I was reminded why I like the torsion axles. Smooth & quiet towing, but it's sat since I bought it cause winter finally showed up. I have all the materials to widen it and decided to make it simple. From the fender back I'm welding 3x2 .188 rect tube to the stake pockets & relocating the outer ramp bar brackets with 4" longer bars. This will give me a deck that's 88" wide. In front of the fender I'm using 3x2 .25 angle. I can do all this without screwing with the reflective stickers on the main beam. The tongue to deck header plate is massive & will be the perfect place to mount a winch. No extra plating required, just drill 4 holes & done. Probably hide the battery in a box & mount it underneath for a cleaner look. Looks like old man winter may take a break soon so I'm hoping to get to work on this thing when he does. I'll post details & pics when the time comes. [/QUOTE]
