Well we're do I start lol here goes.
Well here it is in the flesh now this how it now.
This was a very grey area us for us as we didn't know if this would work due to the weights as we prior towed it with Ford F-150 truck that just didn't work as it was to high.
As it is coil springs on the rear we just didn't know so it was time to fabricate chassis mountings for the fifth wheel coupling.
So know it was time to hitch it up and see what happens to our surprise it was spot on,couldn't quite believe it.
Well we then decided it was time for are maiden voyage drag racing 360 miles round trip with out fault.
