I couldn't sit on my ass any longer, springs or no springs, I was going to do something tonight on the lv.

Drug out the body and blew 6 - 90lb bags of sand on the bottom of the tub, that's all I had at my house. Went pretty good I thought? There is quite a bit of undercoating underneath and the sandblaster does not like the stuff that is still stuck on. Some of it just blows right off in sheets while other areas you have to auger away on it for a while.

Driverside rocker is in tough shape along with an area in the floor, but overall not to bad? I guess I've seen a few photos of entire floors gone so I should consider myself lucky. I think a good weekend I should be able to have most of the new sheet metal work done. Probably won't get to blow anymore sand until this weekend, assuming it doesn't rain?

Thought I would post some pics, springs are scheduled to be here tomorrow, although I just checked the tracking # and they have been Sioux falls, SD since 7 am this morning and nothing has happend? I'm sure they will show up
Bushing should also be here tomorrow to, replacing the others.

Also, lv owners. Take a look at each piece of metal under the rear wheel wells that is fastened in with 5 or 6 screws. Is that factory? It kinda looks like it, because they are both the same. Or is this something else the Doobie bros. fabbed in?

Thanks, Matt
