    The cartoon character in the pic is a dead ringer for my buddy Jim....... I look at it as a compliment to the profession, ever see the Harley shirt that says “If I have to explain it you wouldn’t understand “? :) I’ve never pulled livestock, but I have admiration for those that do. Seems to be a different world.

    They have it riveted together on the inside, and it was just plain wore out, it barely pulled the bolt back enough to unlatch it. But in a sense I wish I would have had a spare lol....

    Had to look in my files but I knew I had them..... my cousin built that slide.

Biggest I ever caught was 19 1/2” largemouth.

    Couldn’t you have waited til Wore told me about brakes before putting me on Front street? It’s taken a long time to make manager at Dominos and have time to get on TTR.

    Thattttttts right, James!!! That’s right! :D

    Got my heavy on... gonna have to stop in to a CAT scale before grabbing the CNC around noon... I’m shedding 5000lbs in Toledo (I won’t make the Cleveland stop so some unlucky local guy gets to handle that on Monday!) and the glass for Denver is never heavy...

    Needless to say... with the QuickDraw and our heavy combos I’d be very surprised if I’m
    Not pushing 75-80k already...

    I bought the paccar ones for the driver's side and they were all rusty in 3 months....bought the aftermarket one's for the passenger side and they still look good.

    Aftermarket is around $60.

    Warning the style latch you bought the latch is made really cheap on the ones I got. If you close the door without pulling the handle they break. I've broke two and now always have a spare.
