    I've only ran 2 tanks through my truck with an average of 5.4 grossing 90kish

    Don't know if I should feel good or bad about that

    I’d never use panel adhesive if there was ever a chance of having a panel damaged/replaced in the future. There’s a clear, thin, kinda stretchy double sided tape they use to seal them. No clue what the trade name is for it though.

    I have many questions. Screenshot_20210418-232441_Facebook.jpg

    With the biggest one being why? Any load that requires an rgn is obviously too large for a 1 ton pickup.

    Yeah but they claim it's available in a 16-18k capacity.

    Some hotshot goon is gonna get one and start pulling 18k pound machinery with his 1 ton and cause a wreck because he's over loaded the truck.

    Agreed, the 3m is more for glued panels. Like multi piece fiberglass with no bolts or screws. You can drill and tap that stuff. He wants more like a metal bond seem sealer. Has some flex and is removable. Eastwood has some good products. Only need a chaulk gun.

    They have a brush on for parts already assembled too.
