    I use latex disposable surgeon like gloves.
    Cut down the tube. Put it on with my gloved hand. I even spread it on the kingpin plate. Just seemed I was wasting too much. Just putting gobs on the back top of the 5th wheel, just didn’t cut it.
    Who uses only one tube a month? I easily go through 3 or more.

    You could send them to the state epa office.

    Best not to include a return address

    That's the way I grease my 5th wheel. Before I do that I use a 3" paint scraper to remove excess grease from around the edge and inside the locking jaws.

    I came across a compilation video of neat inventions. This guy turned a barrel into a rolling tool box. The inside tool hanger rotates, with three sets of hangers. c0d010015cddfcfbdf56955cd613f447.jpg

    Those un willing to go to the communist state can use the second best spot................Indiana.

    God already put all the bad weather, roads, and sports teams there, so it would serve as a suitable alternate to the communist state.

    Well the cats are demanding home time.

    Quite the dilemma here. I'll be empty like 60 miles from where I could load a good load and just keep rolling for another week or 10 days.

    But I yielded to their requests, and now have a PM scheduled with wrench Friday.

    Now the Casper question. Should I upgrade to a newer Casper?
