When you measure it you should include the hitch and the bumper.

Good work! The insulation is a pain. You have to pm a mod to change the thread name. Try Kevin245, HiHoagrv or Aage

That looks great! You and I are at the same place on the same model.. I have been pressure washing off the remaining pink fluff. Good luck with her!

Tar-be-gone!!!

Here are the exterior pics after weeks of working on that tar. And yes.....paint stripping gun, plastic putty knife, rubber gloves, and Jasco Adhesive Remover. I spent about 100 man hours and $200 on Adhesive remover, blue shop towels, and gloves. Every window was covered in tar, all the roof seams, rivets, and roof openings. My boyfriend took me out for beers and burgers to celebrate! The scaffold and metal studs are things we use in my construction company. Next....take off all the windows and drip seals to clean and re-seal.
