my brother has built sas toyota pickup and swears by the stickys. Blows gears every now and then but they crawl right up wet rocks like no other.

 

16.5, what's the deal with that?!?! Sounds like a very odd size wheel.

 

Old School. The HMMV's use them, and that's about it other than skid steers these days. Everybody else gave up on them in the 80's/VERY early 90's

 

Probably the only decent picture I have. From an open day at Field and Forest a couple years back

 

That's what came to mind, skid steers and I seem to remember some old farm equipment trailers using them.

 

They usually use them on redrilled and centered double beadlocks from the HMMV's

 

yeah that’s why I go to @jpereira2 happily. Small price to pay twice a year to not do it myself.

....I promise it will be cleaner next time around....

If you’re like me in my town you’d need a permit for anything. I think even without a slab floor. Pain in the arse. But yeah those plastic ones are nice, keeep an eye on Facebook and craigslist I haven’t searched but I don’t see them much. I’m mostly trolling for Suzuki X90s and mountain bikes nowadays.

 

If I do a wood shed I need to put a bed of stone underneath. Digging in a shitload of roots is not my idea of a swell time. I think a 10x10 plastic one would be ok for now, or smaller. Ideally I want / need a 12x 16 wood shed with overhead storage

 

Small ramp door trailer is a great shed. Plus you get a trailer.

 

Plastic ones don't breathe, so they're pretty terrible as wood sheds. OK if you're storing pellets or equipment, though.

So long as you don't need to use it as a trailer for anything you're all set

 

Snow blower, log splitter and such. Stuff that can freeze without issues is what I need . Equipped with electrical

 

Ok, my low tire pressure light randomly goes on. All 5 tires check out ok . Thoughts?

 

It's going to blow up.

 

Or could be a faulty tpms sensor. One of the two...

 

I'd have to measure mine but it's small. All I need though plus one side has a greenhouse style roof if I decided to use it for that purpose.

Ideally electrical, but I leave my tractor and push mower in my shed all winter and have not ever had an issue.

Bonus is I just use my truck ramps to load and unload heavy shit

This perhaps. When you first start the engine, look and see if it is solid right away or blinks for 30-60 seconds. Mine just started blinking and I'm sure it's a sensor

 

That's actually a great idea. I have friends with dump trailers, utility trailers, and car haulers, but no one has an enclosed trailer.

Problem is, I think it'd be a pain to get into the back yard. One side of the house is a big drop off with a pergola behind it, so there's no way there. The other side is flat and wide enough between the house and the trees, but the well is most likely in the way. I'll have to measure.

 

Sounds like it's time for the electrical tape mod

 

The latter not the former, right .....

 

Light went out . But it was blinking for the 30-60 . I think it’s the third time this has occurred. If it keeps up I will do the electrical tape mod per @Pugga ’s suggestion

 

Yeah that's a sensor. No doubt. I bet if you hit the reset button it did nothing as well.

I'll probably just get mine repaired soon, fuck it. I've barely driven the truck this year, think I've put 7K on it this year versus 15K usually.

That said I figure the rest of the sensors could be good for a long time still..my wife's Rav4 was 15 years old when we sold it last year and it never had a single problem with them.
