I feel your pain Cheeto, and all this would be solved by an eight foot stack of $fifties!

I hate the fact the Ford wanted to charge me $6 for 1 o-ring to fix the turbo oil drain back line. I said hell with them and found o-rings at another place for the high pressure line in, and fuel o-rings. At least it's fixed and back on the road.

Know what I like? My "J" wordish brother! He haggled a deal for a 24' deckl, tri axle, deck over trailer that is rated at 12000lbs. I needed a bigger trailer for my mud truck, and he came through in style. It needs a new deck but everything else looks great for the low low price of $500. Now to call my hook up at the lumber yard for some 18' long rough cut lumber. Going to put steel down on the dovetail. Oh, and with a 9' wide deck, there is plenty of walking around room!

Only problem is you cant pull it threw NC if its 9 feet wide (108") because width restriction is 102" unless your marked as a oversize load

Hmm, might have to cut the deck down a few inches then.

I'm almost sure 102 is max width everywhere without bagging/permits.

It could be 102" already. I stepped off the 9' measurement last night after we got it home. I'll pull the tape out and get real outrigger measurements today.
