Just signed up, but ive been watching you guyz for awhile now. Have a few ?s. I think I need a 24 foot box for the layout I'm planning. At least 22 foot, I would like to keep it as short as possible. Will have the master bed in the overhead above the cab. Planning to keep the sleeper and install seating, add passenger door (s). 4 bunks in the rear, water and waste tanks underneath in rear. House batts and 7.5 diesel kohler gen as far aft as possible. The rest will be just normal stuff. House type appliances. I'm trying to keep as much weight of the front as I can. Is this neccessary ? Also would like to keep rear overhang as short as practical. What are your reccomendations for axle placement. I have the M11 originally rated at 370 hp, with a 500 hp ecm bump and hx55 turbo. It has 4.10 rear gears and 9 speed Eaton trans. What rear gear ratio would you like to have in this rig. Thanks guys.
