Do you have 1400s?

 

[Coffey1]

Thank you for more evidence that 1400s are &%#* and should be avoided...

Xzl are good tires but xl don't seem to be

That's how fast I was going when that one let go lol.

I honestly thought about welding hold points to each lifting point on the rear axles. then having a chain already cut that is to the right length to bind it up safely and quickly. blowout, air jack it up hook the chain to the proper point and let it down and itll be good rather than having to judge how high you need to go. and wrapped a chain and binding it up... quick bind and get it off the highway.

If I ever decide to self recover one again somebody please kick my you know what.

Any updates, he made it home yet?

For me, the rear blowouts are much harder to control than either of the steer tires. What's your take?

Impressive. So that "55 mph max" is a bluff.

It's 3am and we're at Roberts camp all is well.
Robert is a saint

Robert you just wanted to play with your new crane........

While trying to keep his spirits up during his stint of living under a bridge last night, I suggested he make a sign. This would help him blend in better while he waited for Robert. He did not disappoint!




Thank you Robert for picking up our good friend when he was down.
