Well, from start to finish: under 2 hours with my handbag of tools in my truck... I didn't plan on doing they install tonight because it was at my parents. But with heavy rain expected Thursday through Sunday, I wanted to get started.
It was not hard.
At first I thought I was going to have an issue with my battery box and propane tanks, but then I found out the jack on the passenger side was on wrong. I haven't tried with the tank and the box yet, but maybe this weekend.


I did all the work in the lights of my truck, and when I was done, I started to look at all the parts and pieces, and found this cracked weld

And the wear was significant on the jack, which was the same one that was on wrong, and had the broken jack mount.


I am going to look at some things tomorrow. I will be going home early to finish my crown on my tooth, so I plan/hope to take it for a ride.
