And I don't mean to sound like a smartass....you've already proven you're playing chess on this build where I'm playing checkers. But I am curious? And "because that's the way I want it" is entirely acceptable in my book! ;)
I'm like a kid on Christmas morn...my bad! Ha. Read through a bunch of your stories this afternoon....thanks for sharing those. Really great stuff. And I think they would sell. Just sayin'
Ha! Last night I was going to suggest almost that exact thing (I was thinking locking pin with the little ball in the shaft) and said to myself....you're already tormenting Don enough with your stupid a** questions. :-[ I like it...simple and effective!Now if only getting BO's REAL birth certificate (and no....not his "certificate of live birth" for the NPR folks monitoring the site) were so easy we'd all be breathing easier at night....sheesh.
Yea, the Obama administration is SO transparent that you just see right past it instead of through it! You think OB ever held a wrench? Changed oil? hammered a single nail?
Great innovative work Don getting it all to work. I like how its coming together.
I was looking around for my hand winch, the one I once had on the "Tactical topper" if you were a part of that fiasco. I saved it and stored it...s o m e w h e r e

Well the hand crank could power something he ate??
Like the "hood pin" solution to the latches- get yourself some cables to hold the puns when out of the latch and your all set!

You guessed it!One .22 round ended up in the driveway and a truck ran it over, scarring it, or maybe those were teeth marks. But it didn't go off. I cut grass today. Thought about sitting on a flack jacket, but with that super thick deck, It was all good...and no unintentional discharges so far...
Loving the rear carrier! Keep up the good work! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Yesterday the Red Dog ran away!Yippee!No more red dog!!!!!!!!!!!Then late last night the D@)&!! thing came home and was covered in sewer mixins!We tied it up and power washed it. Should have drowned the thing...D@)!&^!! dog! Its possessed
This is a little off the tire carrier topic but goes back to the in bed fuel tank. Have you thought about incorporating a setup to run waste motor oil or waste vegetable oil? I know to run it guys usually set up a filtering/refinement setup in their garage before dumping it into the tank. I've been thinking about how to set it up to work with the transfer tank after you run out of options for diesel i.e. When all your tanks are empty. Have a se t up to drain motor oil from dead vehicles/equipment and filter it onboard before putting it in the tank. If you're having your guy build that tank you could have him put a drain plug on the very very bottom and then your fuel line an inch or so above that. That way you could filter the oil before it goes into the tank and let it sit in the tank for a few days then pop the bottom drain open to expel the water that separates from it and you would have an alternate source of fuel. I'm probably going to try something like this when I get slowed down from work this winter. Not only for TEOTWAWKI but simply because it's pretty darn cool. I like fuel for less than a dollar a gallon.
Good ideas. My idea was to Tee off of the heater hoses and run hoses along the frame rail and into a U shaped piece of pipe in one of the fill holes. That way when your engine is up to temperature you would know your tank was as well. This would also help with gelling fuel. Although with winter blend fuel that wouldn't be as much of an issue.
I just don't want to wind up missing a digit or limb. I can sometimes get in a hurry to get results.
