Looks good Sheldon. What happens to the bucket that is resting on the ramps, I mean, once you get it out on the highway?

See..and I waited ONE NIGHT ( I wanted to thoroughly wash the truck) to install my DP, and the guys were telling me it was because I had too much estrogen running through my veins. A certain someone said that no man would wait, they would do it at night in the dark if it was necessary.

Good morning!

Specialness to you Jim! That was kewl about J-L getting up so sweetly.

Okay one of the cats that got spayed yesterday is a frikken devil reincarnate. Holy frick this is insane. Im talking screaming like something from pet cemetery. You look at her and you have to turn away so you have the opportunity to keep your eyeballs. I looked under the couch at her this morning and I had this strange feeling I would be next in line for the face transplant surgery. I could see the EMTs now telling the ER docs...That chimp attack? aint nothing on this one. So I backed away and the little spawn of satan charged me down hissing and I actually have cat spit on my leg. Now I looked like a major wuss running from a cat okay well 8 month old kitten but damn this is evil. Hell with her name being cleo. It is Damien for sure. Vet opens in a few minutes I am going to call. Hopefully I will either get a comforting reassurance my sweet lil Cleo will return or they will tell me to get out of the house..get out now don't look back....

Why oh why can I not have a normal life?

Morning everyone.

Lisa, the back bucket gets chained down, so it wont move. Its mandatory that you lower it to, so your load isnt overheight, plus I dont think they want leaky hydraulics leaking and lowering during transport.

Moose normal is no fun! (seriously keep your stick on the ice)

I am laughing with you not at you. lol You are very descriptive and I can actually picture everything you said Moose. Best of luck.

P.S. Normal life is boring. Yours sounds interesting at least.
