Mark, I had planned on reaching out too you when the time came. Tatonka sells a 5 pc door lock set all keyed alike but the price didn't look too appealing.

Damn you can do all kinds of things when you have a shop around you. (instead of that truck bed)

My plan is to be Better Equipped with a 712m working platform. Hence more stuff like this in the field. I want my working retirement to be travel friendly.

Looking at the cabin rust I thought I was looking at my truck but then realized the rust was not as bad.
Good job.
