When you're in town give my regards to the folks at the 'Bucket of Blood Saloon.' I had a nice lunch there with my brother a few years ago. Had I known you lived there, we might have dropped by to pester you.

Hangers & sturdy L-sections... Do you use aluminum or galvanized steel?
What is there is steel storage boxes(33" deep) supported by light weight steel square tube to the truck frame and... the perimeter frame(of the MH) which is heavier angle-iron & is supported vertically & gusseted between outer hatches.
The other side has the cat, LP tank & muffler. no steel storage boxes supported by light weight steel square tube. Actually the "hole" behind the rearend... between the fuel tank & rear bumper looks sorta like a parachute.
The airdam, or leading pan from bumper... could be as low as the I-beam
Lowering the whole bellypan to the I-beam(front susp sitting on wood blocks) height would be the goal- correct? or is one step (or diffuser) behind the I-beam acceptable?
Perhaps a chin airdam & side skirts would be more in order?
The BoB is a fun spot.
The RedDog across the street & north is a usual hangout, also.
