Looking good Dub. Should we all bring our favorite skully sticker to Moab to add to your collection on the inside of the lid?
BTW, I like the idea of a strip of LED's in the trailer recess. Maybe get one of the ones that fits between the bumper and the tailgate on a pickup so you'll have brake lights and turn signals all in one.

Oh, and how about one of these instead of the wing on top?

I talked with the counter dude @ Advanced Auto today, & he called a friend who supposedly has a used "ricer wing" for $ 40.00.Looking good Dub. Should we all bring our favorite skully sticker to Moab to add to your collection on the inside of the lid?
Oh absolutely...

Looking good Larry.
At the risk of preaching to the converted - 2 observations -
Make sure your wing doesn't hit your rack of tyres when you have to open the box up.
That thing is going to be a PITA to reverse - short drawbar and poor visibility.
Looking good though.
Now that food has replaced sex in my life -

Done & DONE!Make sure your wing doesn't hit your rack of tyres when you have to open the box up.

The wing will be in no danger of making contact, & I've got a fiberglass mast that I'm gonna mount, centered on the front of the box, so I can see whats goin' on back there...
Towing it home was a rather odd sensation, no discernable (sp?) towing resistance, coupled with not being able to see it in any mirror until I turned a 90 deg corner...
Thanks for the good advice & comments Mr. K...
As an afterthought...
The downside of this "bargain" ricer wing is...I paid more for the new S-S hardware to mount it with, than I paid for the wing......

Except for filling it with stuph, this'll pretty much be the finished product before Moab this year.
