All right, now I am really wetting my pants. This is a preview, I will have some better photos tomorrow, they are going to take a few while it is outside.

I look at this picture and have to laugh. I crawled around the underside of my Coachmen quite a bit. The floor frame on that had 1" x 2", which don't get me wrong it did the job, but those floor frame rails 2" x 3" are just massive.

You got to love a motorhome manufacturer that gets that 4" chrome exhaust tip on there right away. I am thinking I may need a 5" or 6". You'll know it is me when you see this huge exhaust tip dragging the concrete throwing sparks all over the place. /infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Wow, this thing is really built...

When all the skirting is complete, well there
still be accessibility to things such as air brake
adjustment, grease points, rear end lub, air ride asjustment etc.

Can you crawl under there? or will chassis maintainance have to be done from a grease pit etc.

Maybe you will have to have something to drive up
on to raise everything a foot or so off the ground?

It looks great....
 
Actually, even before the conversion I drove it on 2" x 10" planks to get under the chassis. I do have hydraulic levelers which I could use to get it up and then block the frame, but I will probably run it up on planks when I need to do any maintenance.
