Ok. I thought you might be farther south on wed evening. If you are fantastic. If not, no worries.

I have come across a rather large issue. Rotated my tires tonight and went to inspect everything. My hitch has decided to let me know that it has rotted out on me. Oh the joys of living in Ohio. I'll be scrambling to buy and install or build one.

Hahahaha. That's rich. It's cheaper to not pull the trailer home. Way less fuel. And who's to blame you if your brand new hitch breaks

Rick, the last ones I got from him (been a couple years) did. I thought I remember reading someone on here got some from him that didn't.

So, in other words, I'm not a heck of a lot of help!

It doesn't take much force if it ever gets damp.

I just got two from him Monday. They do have the screen on the inside. They are the Baldwin filters.

Mornin, I got my daily Autotrader email this AM and a perty 97 showed up. I'm normally a monotone paint job guy but this is a real looker, well except for that nascar type exhaust exit, not a fan on these trucks...
