Eastover M105 recovery: mission accomplished.

[michigandon]

I was on the road by 0430 yesterday. Was hooked up and headed for home by about 1000 I think? Anyway, the Eastover armory is a very laid back place, the GL guy was very cool and helpful. Wasn't expecting him and I to hafta shuffle trailers around BY HAND in order to get mine out, but I'm making that sound worse than it really was. The trailer appears to be a recent refurb. Nice 3-color paint job and good rubber on it. Pulled it all the way home at highway speeds without a lick of trouble. Murphy? No sign of that A-hole around here yesterday!

There were a couple gentlemen loading up a 923 the same time I was there. Anybody from here?

Wonderful!
Now you'll have something to put on the pintle for the convoy up to Graves Mountain at the end of the month...

Seriously, it's good to hear that the recovery went smoothly.

It'll be coming to Graves with me, because I bought joediveguys' S250 that he is supposed to deliver to me there and it's going inside of it to make my new hooch.

I didn't hear from you so I assumed it went smoothly, this time it seems my assumtion was correct! Nice trailer!

Hooked it up to the deuce and took it for a test tow around the neighborhood last night. Lights and brakes all function as they should. One of the air hoses has a leak though.

Didn't get any pictures of the combination, as it was dark by that time. Will try to take some this weekend though.
