G'day Herb, I put dump body on it, spent yesterday making & painting mudflap mounts, still have to cut the mudflaps that will go in front of the rear axle, they will be about 2' long.
Cheers, Steve.

My guess would be that's it the safety pin for the front end tilt release but that's just a guess.

Yes, it's a lynch pin... just a safety for the tilt front, it feels about the same weight to lift as a Mack 'R' model hood.
