    VA Steel Soldiers Rally - Putting it all together!

    As the campsite will be "rustic," I'll also bring a bedside commode so the latrine can be a "Pew with a View." I also just ordered a new 3 lever light switch from OD Iron as well, so I'll have LIGHTS!

    I've got a propane grill with a side burner I'll bring and sheets to convert the shop van into a movie screen. I've also got a 10'x10' canopy I can bring if the weather turns.

    Questions regarding installation: 1) My truck has gasser fenders, so there's a big flat space where I can mount the under the hood unit and eliminate use of the aftermarket "shelf." Should I just drill holes in the fender and bolt it on, or is there a more elegant way to do this to reduce...
