@bobholthaus WOW! love the tires - What make and model tires are they?

I went the airship route when I ordered

@ I have a set of wheels in storage. Tires are likely dried out by now, but the rims are in great shape

@Picturepro The 5 lug hub I ordered from Knott is: 6B1232.010 and with the following description: "HUB FNK11". It was shipped from Hungry. My original hub is also 6B1229 as yours is so these are the hubs you'll need here is a link to the part and Knott America should be able to order...

Here’s the lock: Brenderup NEW ABS lid lock for 1150 & 1205 | eBay - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/312259061899?hash=item48b417288b:g:VSYAAOSwhBJbvLlJ

@Whisper327 do you have the eBay link?

Here are the exact same ones and who I ordered from. Note they come from the UK: JOKON 710 95mm ROUND REAR STOP / TAIL LIGHT LAMP ELDDIS BAILEY CARAVAN MOTORHOME | eBay - https://www.ebay.com/itm/222549078688

Check the contact in the bulb socket as it may needed to be lifted/bent up a bit to make contact with he bulb. Worst case scenario is that the contact broke and you'll need a new light....this happened to me. You can source the lights on eBay.

No transition bracket. Its just a 15 Series bracket with a 1/4-20 thread bolt going into the 10 Series. Note I used a washer since the hole is oversized for the 1/4-20. You may want to go with a more stout bracket there with the RTT on top to prevent any sheering....like that bracket used to...

@noelskii washers were used between the bolt head and the frame in the inside of the lid

I spec'ed it all out on paper first. I ended up with 2 orders total: (1) the initial list like yours, (2) the order with the crossbars and M8 t-nuts. I went with the 1x3 Series 10 as I have a roof rack (Prinsu) on my Tacoma that utilized 1x2 Series 10 so to keep the attachments on the rack...

Looks damn good!!

Did you order M8 T-nuts? I used these one: (DB-015) 15 / 40 Series Drop-In T-Nut w/spring-ball | TNUTZ | TNUTZ - https://www.tnutz.com/product/db-015/. They may have not been in my original list as you will see my progress the idea to move to those came as a later development: #216

No need for loctite as the extrusions in combination with the slot nuts work like a lock washer. I only used 3 M8 bolts on each side to attach the 73” to the lid as stated previously.
