    Headed up to pick up this morning with the wife. 3/4 way there that call and inform me the crane is broken.

    So dropped the trailer in there yard ran around with the wife to restaurant supply wholesaler, Audi dealer, Cheesecake Factory and Costco. Drove the 100 miles back to the yard to her car.

    Found myself Response for taking the duals off the 4420 the boss man sold today.

    Snuck outa there before they could stop me to help load it.

    F58B84AA-23DA-49F4-9B75-764ED6E30BEF.jpeg Now I gotta go back up 100 miles in the morning to pick up my load where I already was this morning. Won’t leave me much time to get to the delivery on Wednesday morning. Good thing is I PC home and will back up in the morning.

    What a mess..

    I unfortunately am one the will spend money just to prove a point.

    On #4 I have witnessed this working. I have not done it. But I have reminded a gent that Chicago was 283 miles from the house. We could discuss in person before the day was over. Got my money. It's a hustle, and you need to be better than them.

    You wont collect without a R/C, but you can file. That's my point.

    Hold up, wait a minute? Why did you buy a combine for your no yard lifestyle?


    I looked at this again. You took the duals off one he sold. Makes more sense now.

    Carry on Sir!

    Looking at the posted pics and considering the leaf suspension I would start looking for an air ride cutoff with the same rear ends or at least similar ratio and you could add some wheelbase if you want.
    Once the frame is damaged in the middle of a leaf suspension even if pro-repaired I have not seen very good results with alignments.
    After finding a suitable cutoff I would look for a frame shop in your trading area with decent references to weld the cut-off.
