    Well I didn't do it myself but did stand and watch it being done and yes, it was very simple. Turned out it was a bad tensioner pully on the AC. Cost $180. I need to get myself a breaker bar, don't think if I tried to do it today that I would have been able to get the bolt off without it...

    Ended up getting a MD Alignment done today and had centrimatics put on my steers.... The tire shop right across from Truck world in Hubbard, OH. They found a nail in one of my drives I hadn't seen, must have just picked it up.

    Seals say "We sweat in peace so we don't bleed in war". Good advice. Another saying is prior proper planning prevents piss poor performance.

    As far as I'm concerned Kommifornia can fall into the see after an earthquake, what a worthless no good state. The only thing that came from Cali I'm proud of was President Reagan, one of the best presidents that we've ever had. As far as you 48' trailer goes I'd look at a 53' stepdeck personally, You can do quite a bit more with that than a flat IMHO!!!

    You can get a 1/2" breaker bar from Harbor freight for about 20$ and get a socket set ,1/4"- 1/2" drive, for about 200$ from Lowes but make sure you get the Kobalt brand. That socket set will come in mighty handy when your on the side of the road trying to change out an alternator or most minor item such as that!!!
     
    HalpinUout Thanks this.

    I agree with your California comments, but I live here and I love my wife. She won't move until both our parents die.

    I actually did buy the trailer. It's not a flat. It's a 48' step with spread, a 40' bottom deck. Wood floor, container locks and 35" tall. Ramps and levelers included.
     
    Airborne and HalpinUout Thank this.
