Chad, great job! I used a LOD front and rear bumper on our Jeep and also used the added frame brackets up front for the same reasons you did, no base plate and the tow bar hooks straight to the bumper D rings. Funny enough, we also use a Nighthawk tow bar and the running lights on the sides of the bar at night add some additional safety when you are walking near it. You are going to really like this setup!

Rick, I'm sure they would make a great Firestarter with the addition of some diesel fuel. You could visit the Magic Circle at Quartzsite and start your own trend in making fire rituals.... 😁

Be glad they haven't made it illegal to eat beans with your dinner. It's only a matter of time with the methane police on the prowl. Why anyone would still consider living in that cesspool is beyond me.

Rod, we are in a RV garage home here but also have our youngest daughter and son-in-law staying with us for a while. Their apartment is in St Pete Beach and is not habitable right now.

We are not too far away.... the blue dot is where we are hunkering down.

I ran a trailer saver air ride hitch with a Curt air ride pin box for several years on our Freightliner. Never was an issue despite all of the experts saying it wouldn't work. The rebound cyclic motion is different between the two bags so you don't get any amplified motion when they work together.

Rick, just now noticed this thread again. The latching air dump is the air dump valve itself, not the switch on the dash. A non latching valve uses an electric solenoid to dump the air. When you kill the electric power going to that valve by turning off the truck, it will revert to its normal state. A latching valve will stay in whatever position it was in whether it has power or not. Dan and Freda's truck was spec'd from ours so they have the same valve types as we had. Your welcome Dan....😁

Rick, You have a non-latching air dump. I had a latching air dump put on ours and you should be able to change yours out.

Our Jeep tow has had TST moniters on it since it was bought. It's been to Alsaka and back and all over the USA without any issues with the rubber valve stems.

That looks close to the "bow tie" near Ten Sleep.

Those are the best cat5/6 cable ends on the market!

Either have some one braze it or silver solder it together with an oxy/acetylene torch. God, I just agreed with Glenn.... I need to mash my hand in a door to get rid of the pain...

They obviously have never boondocked much. 7 days on the tankage they have is not going to happen. One of them uses a combined black and grey tank and neither one carrys much in the way of fresh water.

You just have to remember where you buried 136 mason fruit jars full of cash.... And hope that dementia doesn't set in soon.

The transient tax for stays shorter than 6 months applys to the property and also changes their tax exemptions, rules on permanent vs transient housing, their business permits and possibly land use restrictions. Believe or not, some people try to get get out of their home state income taxes (I know, shocking....) by staying out of their home state for more than 6 months and claiming residency.
