    Got a question. Hauling a cat motor. That whute plastic they wrap it in is shredding. The back couple feet of motor and the radiator is not covered and flapping out the passenger side. Already tried to tape it but too much air blowing through cause every sharp corner from the front back is splitting. At the least ive gotta cut the back end off. Is there any reason not to remove all of it? I dont think the front will stay anyway since its already ripping but i dont know if theres anything under there that shouldnt be open to weathet.

    I would take pictures of it and completely remove it. Been there done that, and never had an issue.

    Thanks. I finally got a call back and was told it is just to help keep it clean in transport and removing it is no big deal.

    Can't afford a girlfriend, much less a wife. Or a house. I'll probably never get to retire either, but I've made peace with all of that.

    A heck of a way to start my week... getting out of my truck for my first load check my left foot twisted on the uneven pavement. I would have fallen had i not be holding on to the grab rail with my right hand. What I did do however was lean into my stack and burn my forearm. One pain cancels out the other but they both hurt.
