I like Slosh tubs too but, I am poor and shipping to Hawaii would CRUSH my budget! LOL Looks like a killer product though. I am gonna take a stab at some trailer fenders molded in.... eventually!

Re: "the graduate"
Are those rear panels made by Porterbuilt? If so, what is the level of trimming and fitting required to get them installed?

Re: "the graduate"
Hey Johnny - I'm researching for a wheel and tire purchase for my Mild DM. I didn't see it listed in the thread, did you use the same tire size and BS combo on this as you did 'Stocker to Rocker'? If not what did you go with?

Also, did you use the narrowed A-arms? What kind of clearance do you have with the fronts?

Thanks!

No I used rear 22 x 10/5.5 BS and front 20 X 8.5/5.25 BS
Yes / Clearance are you talking aired out or up, fender to tire, or A-frame to wheel ?

I'm thinking aired out and at ride height, fender to tire. I'm looking to push the tire/rims out board as far as possible. It won't be an exact comparison because I think you set your ride height at 5" or 6" and I'll be around 7". Just trying to get an idea for now, seems everyone uses the 5.25 BS on the front so I may just go with that.

Thanks for your help!
