    yeah if you go on ebay and type in M416 and search this canvas cover comes up. It is VERY thick (don't know the ply) canvas, and is made for the trailer - I am unsure about "proper" fitment of the ropes, but I did what worked for me...works fine - works well...

    I stopped at the shop today on my way out of town and looked at the trailer. The awning is installed, they were doing some finishing touches on the project. I will pick the trailer up Monday when I return home.

    The awning I selected is a Carefree of Colorado Spirit FX model.

    It cost a small fortune, but it will be so much nicer to have this than deal with a worn out 10x10 canopy, was is heavy and a nuisance to set up, and requires two people. I used the 10x10 last year at Overland Expo and didn't care much for it because it's old and worn out.

    This week i called to pick up my new axle!!!!!!!!! i can't believe it was 6" wider than i ordered and the hubs were standard Land Rover instead of D3 pattern. The guy came round and checked my measurements, which were correct !!! i am now waiting further progress Skids i've not seen a Sankey with the drawer slid out before, it must be useful in some way! but what are you going to do with it ??? should be a good project.

    Default Stickers!

    Nothing too technical

    I plastered on a couple stickers on the back - ExPo and AR15.com logos and I also put 3M reflective tape
    on the outer edges of the cargo boxes that extend past the wheel wells...

    Dirtytires:

    Too funny!
    My trailer sits in the front drive way and the people that walk past are always asking about it.

    I agree, I had a fellow member of the AirForce stop by and look at the house. He noticed the trailer and we ended up having
    a twenty minute conversation. I think I made the realator mad but I feel I made a fellow Airman Feel Welcomed home.
