    Local restaurant had a cruise in car show.
    A lot of dark clouds keep some locals at home. Screenshot_20260404-185912.png Screenshot_20260404-185859.png Screenshot_20260404-185823.png Screenshot_20260404-185735.png

    What’s the point of an aluminum one?

    Strictly weight reduction?

    Yes, there definitely is some weight reduction, actual lbs I don't know, maybe 150lb lighter.?

    Also has built in low/no lube pads..

    My 1.5 million mile FW35 was due for a rebuild kit too..

    I've run a slick disc on my step the last 5yrs cause I don't like the greasy mess..

    Doing this seed work I've pulled hopper & van wagons I don't own so grease I was forced too. Was getting ready to by a ~$250 Minimizer no lube disc that screws to the top plate anyway, & stumbled across this.. Seemed like a win to me..

    OK, I'm not trying to start anything or make a statement here, I just remember this from some 25 or so years ago:
