    We've moved behind an indigenous dump truck using it as a wind shield.

    Blackie II has no main disconnect. What you need to do when get new batteries is save the caps that are on the posts.

    Then when it's going to sit, pop the four(4) nuts of the positive posts, install the caps, and save the environment from drought by not wasting electricity on a battery charger.

    Yeah I'm thinking, I might need to do something. This is twice. After about a week off they are dead.

    I don’t think it makes any difference. I’ve never blown anything up.

    Putting a disconnect inside the battery box isn't exactly a tall order.

    So this is my trailer i picked up. How safe is it? I got an appointment tomorrow about 35 miles to get it looked at. Probably kill two days. Im planning on dropping it off. How much grease is left in the hub???? The windows are opaque at this point to check the level. Oh trailer inspection was February of 25.
