In not so Grand Rapids. What started out as a good week has come to an abrupt end. Sprinter repair problem was more involved then expected. Unavailable parts on order, expected date of unavailable parts...unavailable :(

Thinkin the "J" hook is what I want. I'll pick one up somewhere or order one. I may build a buzz bar type puller too when Im home.

Ive got another idea I want to try that would make it pretty easy to get the skid to the back of the truck...for those who have the center e-track. Would save the lift driver from having to mess with it.

If I really want to work at it, I have a manual "come along" I can use, but..."I ain't as young as i once was..." :D

Yep, saw that....if I get up that way, I'll stop and get one there.

Waiting to load now.

There's a TruckNTow @ 14300 Schaefer Hwy, with pretty good prices. Shadow pointed me to it, and I got a couple good load bars there.
Finally out of DRS, [they had to keep the truck overnight, so Becky offered to get me a ride to the yard, which made me laugh - no sleeping in the lounge!]. Annual inspection done, ready to go somewhere.
I spose wanting someplace far [and not cold & rainy] is just pushing it, eh? :rolleyes:

Cheri...I'm sorry, but your blue font makes your posts impossible for me to read. I can barely tell there are words on the screen.

Ugh.. well, I don't like sitting.. but.. figured I'd get something out of here. Been here since Wed morn, so Joe wants me to move over to Youngstown. Really thought Harrisburg area would be good.

Dry run plus empty move.. not what I had in mind for the past coupla days.
