They are going to leave it in the shipping crate so I can bring it back home, and I'll drop it off at Apple Motors in Brenham to have it assembled and the Mulholland Pin Stripe painted on.

Finally, but I'm not complaining. They said it was one of three left when I ordered!

Thank's CJ - I would not have had the opportunity if not for your efforts! (You too Fred for getting me in touch with Jerry)

I'm looking to have the 3M clear bra film installed on the front so I don't have to hassel with the regular bra. The dealer is going to show me that tomorrow.

congrats on the trailer,

but not much to put together just remove two bolts and then rool it off the crate then one bolt holding the shipping stand in place, then remove the tung from inside the trailer and install it in the front and put in to bolts to hold it in place and plug in one wire connector, is very easy to do if they are going to charge you to do that

good luck and happry trailering

Jerry at Gillman said that he had a couple of Ball Joint kits in stock - and their Prowler Tech is ready to put them on. He also said that Rear Rims are on backorder again, but if you need rims replaced, come talk to them.

Post a couple of pictures when you get it all done, are you putting a bra on it? if so what kind and color. I want to try the 3m clear stuff but having a problem finding someone here in ca in my part to install one for me.

the shipping invoice when mine got here to the dealership where I work showed 640 lbs, I know the trailer its self is 386 lbs. Not sure of the crate size but will sit on top of a pick-up bed and span it by a few inches on either side.

Hope this helps you

I looked up "automotive protective film" and it gave me some choices for the 8mil 3M film. The dealer it listed in Houston said he has the correct stock to do the entire front with one piece from side marker lamp to side marker lamp, no seams, and the fenders. I think he quoted $245.00, but I'm going to work on him a little on the price!! I don't have the link right now, but using that for a search should get you in the right place.

I will post some pics next week!

Check the bolts on the latch and wheels to make sure they are tight. Then check the lock to see if the nut is tight.

ORDER the Larry Lord latch kit is a MUST in my opinion too. There have been several break and the deck lid open going down the interstate and you will not know it right away......we don't want to see your undies scattered down the road........LOL

if space is a problem the Larry Lord trailer stand allows you to stand it up and it will only take up a space about 5'X3'
