Yesterday was a big day! I got the Isuzu front axle mounted into the Travco. I still need to get longer ubolts and finish brake lines, but it is in!!

And they are both out..

The discs on the Isuzu front axle are so much beefier. I think it will have much better braking ability when done.

I didn't change the leaf springs out yet. As the winter has gotten away from me I decided to save that swap for next winter. I want to make sure we can use it this summer...

I didn't get the inside all done for our trip.. But it made it just the same. Here we are 700 plus miles from home in Wild Bills Campground in Deadwood, Sd.

On our way home we stopped in Sturgis and toured the motorcycle museum and took a little poser shot in front of the sign at the high school, to show we were there.
