    I’m still kicking @Professor No-Name trying not to die in this heat, I’m sure you’re ready to get gone from it. Unloaded in Tampa this morning then had to drag my trailer, less than a year old, up to the yard for repairs. Long story short, I noticed it started walking on me, found every bolt connecting the trailer to the axles either loose, working loose, or bent, to make matters worse the back left bolts grooved a notch in to the aluminum from where, for whatever reason the axle wanted to start walking back, you can physically see where it walked back at least an inch on the rear drivers side. Either way, completely disappointed in Mac’s lack of quality in this, not only that, the inherent danger that was approaching had I not caught it is pretty concerning. Safe travels to AL :) IMG_1696.jpeg IMG_1692.jpeg IMG_1693.jpeg

    My timpte has now had the alignment checked twice and yet it's still wearing the tires wrong on the right shoulders. I'm certainly glad it's not me having to buy tires for it. Super singles run around 1300 a piece before Michelin's discount. Already replaced 2 tires. Got 2 more that probably won't make another 6 months.

    Had to show off my big ride I had last week :). Back under a long trailer now, but not my spread, still at the shop unfortunately. Truth be told I could do most of what I do with the short trailer, I was thankful to have it, it is a rough ride though, spring ride and still legal at 88K, that’s a lot of weight all in one spot!

    Glad things are still clicking along for you, finally got my spread axle back today, mainly staying around Florida. Hopefully the local gig works out and he’ll check in from time to time, always a good crew of us on this thread.
