Did you get my text message on your phone...

I sent the measurements from the box... Let me know if you need anything else or if you need a better drawing... That was with a pen in the rain and mud...

:EDIT: or did you change phone numbers like my sister in law and not let me know...

I forgot to add that the doors have a half in overlap from the inner lip... But I figure if your guy does sheet metal work he can easily determine those parts...

When I was trailer searching online in California I knew I was gonna buy one in Texas, the same trailers are about $1,000 cheaper out there. I found our trailers online & they were exactly what I wanted. The Texas Trailer Man website makes it look like they have a ton of them in different colors on the lot, I assumed they'd have what I wanted there. When I got to his lot he had 2 with boxes & one was the exact one I wanted & it matched my truck perfectly. I was bummed when he said they had just arrived & the ones with boxes were 5 week built to order only. I got lucky that he had the extra long deck model without a box, I had to buy that weekend to get my car home from Andy's so I took it knowing I'd just build a box. The only real downside to it is that its black, wasn't the color of my truck but black matches anything, looks good when its washed but holy crap does that thing get hot to the touch.

Yeah, I searched long and hard and finally ordered while I was in Brazil... got to pick the colors and all... The deck needs to be repainted... and check the tires... if they are chopped or cupped at all, have the bearings checked... We replaced three of the four sets of bearings and my right rear trailer tire was replaced twice before we determined what the deal was... They were never properly adjusted at the factory.... oh well...
