    Yeah, if that would have happened, he would have to call a buddy over for help. One of the many other worthless union ####### standing around doing nothing.

    Honestly, I wouldn't spend money to put one on. It doesn't really add much weight. However, I don't really use it much. Kinda pain in the butt Honestly. If your anywhere else but the interstate, it kinda sucks. It makes your turning radius/following really....really.....really bad! Dang near impossible to get around town without curbing it on everything. I did use it for like 3 weeks straight though. Had back to back light loads. So I ran with it up for awhile. It just makes it hard to get around.

    Lol had a guy drop that stack on my bed too, of course I didn’t give a sheet nearly as much as you; the same guy that picked up a stack of 3 by the edge of his forks and nearly lost it, forgot to add the picture

    Good to know. Maybe just a dump valve on the back axle would be better, shorten the turns up and would solve the problem of dragging the spread when turning

    Just wait until u load a 4,000 pound boulder and it slips out of excavator bucket. Happened to my buddy last year loading at the quarry. Put a moon crator of a dent in his deck.

    Yeah, a dump valve is indispensable. I can't believe you don't have one. It makes tires last longer and makes turning alot easier in town. It also makes backing alot easier and more predictable. Plus it is cheap and easy to install yourself. yeah, I highly recommend a dump valve.
