Once i get wheels swapped out and the eagle alloys off, they will be up for sale or possibly trade depending upon offer. @BNielsen any interest in the Eagle Alloys?

Also have the cooper discoverer at3s (305/70r16) i pulled for smaller tires that need to find a new home. Nearly new tread on them.

I wish, that past few weeks have tapped me dry between vet bills and other emergency expenses, maybe sometime in mid August I'll have gotten a tourniquet on my wallet, if you still have them?
I should be able to make a long drive to meet too,

I'm in no hurry. Will likely be at least a few weeks before I get to swapping wheels out. Got too many irons in the fire currently myself and trying not to bleed my wallet dry

Been a while since I've updated this as progress has ceased completely on the suburban. Home improvements/water damage repairs have taken priority. As such, suburban fits full sheets of drywall nicely in the back with a couple boards down to level seats out. Not interested in the home improvements, now is a good time to switch threads.

Had the first week of July off work and spent it working on the house. Gutted a bathroom of walls, floor, and shower. Even eliminated the shower window that was a bad idea when it was built. Provided a nice view of showering person from about the waist up to anyone in the front yard (we live in the woods with no one in front of us close enough to see). Ended up with siding off the side of the house, hole through the exterior big enough to put a large door in, and installed a new one piece shower unit. Currently ready for drywall, something i can do, but would rather pay someone else to do for me.

When i quit hemorrhaging money and get the bathroom completely back to normal, I'll move back to progress on the suburban and finally get the front end parts on it.

I work for a high end custom cabinet company. The houses that I work in typically start at a million and go up from there - In MN that is still a lot of $$$. Most of those houses have that stupid window in the bathroom. I don't get it.

Legally to meet codes I think there's supposed to be a window in the bathroom, the idea being in an emergency someone would be able to escape. Same thing with any upstairs rooms. It probably varies by locality,but pretty sure I heard that from a contractor.

Can confirm. Although it's usually due to ventilation requirements. Each state differs.

I was under the impression it was required for ventilation unless there is an exhaust fan installed. Regardless, I've eliminated it (there was an exhaust fan present vented to the ceiling cavity, now to the exterior).
