    Recovery planned, Dayton, Ohio to Spartanburg,SC this coming Friday

    I was told that SW's wife may be packing some heat so I will announce our arrival ahead of time! I forgot to mention that Gimp is picking up the truck ahead of time to give me a head's up. What a super guy for those who don't know him! [thumbzup]

    Official 2014 SS Georgia Rally Info SSGR14 thread

    The wife and I had fun driving a pair of 5 tons home Pat. We followed a truck full of small kids whose arms are probably sore from all of the waving in Greenwood! Just give me a bit of notice and Carrie-ann will pick you up at the airport to bring you here.

    winch installs

    I don't know how much a hydraulic one would cost you in purchasing and installation costs, but these are easy to install and a good bang for the buck really.

    Air Brake Problems M923A2

    Made opening my hood much easier

    After installing winches on my 5 tons I quickly realized what a PIA it was to open the hoods now that the bumper is further out. After finding a few pieces of scrap metal at work, I fabricated me a helping hand. The extra leverage makes it easy enough to open with one hand now. Heck even the...
