sorry for the delay been soooo busy..anyway ignore the paint job i had 2 nights to make look decent enough to use for the weekend i hope these pics help. hope to fix up the paint job real soon..
so we welded in some 2'' sq tube cut throught the floor and out the bottom welded to the frame as well .. used the the tube as a guide to plasma cut the door out inside the 2'' is a 1 1/2'' sq tube with holes drilled for the pins . a nut weled on the end for some acme thereaded rod and a round plate to that for a foot pad. i think i will add a couple of wings to the feet to help screw em in and out .. i looked at hydraulic screw type trailer legs but this was simple and free.. i like simple and i like free even better
