Since we have some shipping expertise, what’s the best way to send a pallet of parts cross country? I have a 48x48x48 crate containing an OGPK setup that’s in Florida and that I need to send to Colorado.
I have no experience with LTL services, should I just use T-force (old UPS service) or...
My local lumber place didn’t have any marine or treated plywood. So it’s regular plywood but treated with oil based water sealer so it should hold up for a few seasons. And should be easy enough to change out if it rots, just transfer the rubber guides over to a new piece and bolt in.
I completed the conversion of my M1152A1 to winter snowmobile carrier.
I had previously laid down wood and new D rings with bolts and installed rubber guides for the snowmobile.
Loaded yesterday and all is good.
Not all drivers are equal. If you are not going to pick up yourself, then get one who knows how to eyeball your new truck, make sure it matches the auction description, and knows how to secure it properly.

If you had something foul up the inside of your curbside trash bin . . .
And if all of your hose bibs are shut off for the icy Rocky Mountain winter . . .
Turns out an M1152A1 is the perfect size to take your Toter down to the local pay and spray for a wash out.
Lined the bed of my M1152A1 with a piece of 3/4 plywood. Took off four of the bolts securing the bed, laid the wood, marked, drilled, and resecured with a combination of 2.5" (back bolts/tie downs) and 3" (front bolts/tie downs) grade 8 bolts and some new tie down anchors I purchased on Amazon...
Not much other than the baldest flattest tires in existence. on a set of mismatched junk quality 12 bolt rims. It also needed a new fuel pump and some lighting replaced, otherwise it was ship shape. Mine was a Georgia truck.
