    You are too much! I am reading this at my Shop, fortunately I don't have any customer at the moment. They'd think I had finally lost it! Sitting here laughing and tears running down my face from laughing so hard! :biggrin_25514: :biggrin_2559: :biggrin_2559: :biggrin_2559:

    Thanks! You've made my day!

    God bless and be safe!

    Con-gear or "Dolly" - converter gear may be single or tandem axles- used for hooking together two or more trailers (doubles or triples)
    DO NOT confuze with Condom & Not the girl working late nights @ 3rd & Main.

    Jeep.. similar to a Con-Gear. but is used to add more axles to the front of a RGN for carrying more weight
    Flip neck- flip over neck extension on a RGN to allow adding a Jeep..
    Flip axle- attached to rear of a RGN ( to add more axles for wt. capacities

    ok, off track, but not much. read on another skateboard thread, a&e and d&h, now d&h is of course drop and hook, but even though I have been driving for awhile, had not heard of a&e, i know it is something simple and I will look stupid, but don't care, I want to know what it means :)

    A&e is ammunition and explosives, and are always teams, and only a select few companies do it.
