Big work day planned in a few! You got any suspension to graft? Or did I miss that big delivery for scoping out the other big delivery?

I talked to Nate on Friday and he said I should expect some tracking numbers sometime this week!

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)

Do quite a few of y'all go to the Nashville Nationals? I see it's May 17th-19th at Titans Stadium. Is there any consensus on the best hotel to stay at?

Stay at the Marriott.
It's the host hotel for the event.

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)

I agree with Keith. Theres always something going on here so hotel rates stay up and the best deal will more than likely be at the host hotel.

Thanks!

BTW---I have that big parts order I asked you about, except for the Porterbuilt parts. I haven't gotten a good lick on the project yet because the title is a rebuilt. It was supposedly a theft and stripped a long time ago. I'm cool with that, but I want to measure the frame to be sure it wasn't damaged. I wasn't planning on removing the cab (other than to put new mounts on). All that to ask, would y'all be satisfied with a tape measure-check from the bottom side? I was debating taking it to bodyshop with good electronic equipment. The vertical measurements are what I'm thinking would be difficult to accurately measure with a tape.

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)

If you know someone at a body shop that could put it on a frame machine I would go that rote but you could prob get by with a visual inspection and a measuring tape!

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)

Also a week or so ago, Chuck (thelonerife) and I drove down to Memphis to pick up my bed from board member twangismythang! This past weekend we blew it all apart in preparation for raising the bed floor and some repairs. However it is way better than the green bed!! I plan to have the bed parts sandblasted as well.
