    Yes, I think Woreout said he put a 18 in his and did that since he was used to a 15.

    Shoot, we're gonna have to do a GoFundMe and buy @wore out one of those 3-stick kits from 4-States. He'll be a youtube star! :cool:

    Someone probably already replied, but we know someone who did just that - not to be a Billy Bigrigger, but because he had run a 15 against the dash for so many years.
     
    OLDSKOOLERnWV and Hammer166 Thank this.

    Well, it wasn't a brand new truck. That's all I have to say about that!

    I've never really cared for how those X towers felt going from the 6- hole to the 7 hole, anyway. That was always the first shift to scratch when you get really tired. Most likely related to all the extra parts needed to reverse that gate.
     
    Oxbow Thanks this.
