My favorite game show. I got 4,3,2,1
Manuela has mankillers. I have a weakness for mankillers. Gwendolyn is plain hawt. Amber is sweet, but she has a 2 pull rip cord and going to lose the battle of the bulge. Rachel has no arse, just a slit in her lower back. That's what gives her that blocky look.sawmill, rank, snowman_w900 and 2 others Thank this. -
We use the curved Ergobar or whatever it's called. I usually just have to move the truck to get the last couple notches. Our steps are ancient and the winches I think were from an era of short, straight bars.MJ1657 and johndeere4020 Thank this.

I think longer straps was mentioned (heavier and more tag end to deal with on a short load). So that leaves swing distance, (5th wheel farther back, mud flaps getting ripped off, less weight on steers, potential length concerns).Last edited: Mar 23, 2017

......Most steps have an 11 ft upper deck so the longest piece you can carry on a 48 ft step without levelers or rear overhang is ~37 feet. Longest piece on a 53 would be 42 ft. Carry levelers all the time can be a PITA

Short bar is what I use. I carry a long bar but usually only use it as a pry bar when needed for the most part.KenworthGuyNH, cke, DDlighttruck and 1 other person Thank this.
