    The guy I bought my Duramax from had it leveled, I wish he hadn't. It looks like it has the squats when I load it :oops:

    Id like maybe 1.5" up front. This is not what I'm looking for. This has got to be one of the dumbest things to ever become a thing.

    I still see 1-3 of them a week go by the house. You can always tell by the sound it's a squatter coming with that clapped out noise.

    You can pick your friends, but not your family. It's why I got friends I treat like family, and family I distance myself from.

    Went to the Chiropractor Monday. They took x-rays and they think they might see signs of Ankylosing Spondylitis and a possible stress fracture. I pray that's not true. I'm supposed to be the healthy one in this relationship. I've been living with lower back pain for a long long while. Though my hip and knee pain began in the military and may have very well contributed to it. Guess I'll find out next Tuesday when I go back.

    I did the same thing, sort of, yesterday. The wife told me Friday that there was a homeschool group meeting at a local camping resort to go swimming at the lake. I decided, spur of the moment, to take yesterday off and go have fun with the kids. They're only going to be this young once and I don't like missing out on as little as I do.
    Do you do anything with ball bearings that go into a floor plate? Because that would definitely be used in the place where @Delta09 works.

    Good for you for doing that. A man told me once "your kids won't remember you being there, they'll remember the times you weren't".

    No on the ball bearings.

    I'd like to hope they might remember me being there, but who knows. Maybe it will make up for having to work a second job.

    We’ve been having trouble with our diesel pump, paid this guy $1,378 a couple weeks ago to work on it and it’s doing to same thing. They came back yesterday and replaced a board in the control box. I’ve been nothing but nice to him. Not sure what his problem is but I tried to call him to talk man to man. He didn’t answer.

    They’ve put 2 belts on it, the belts aren’t the problem. If you don’t know what you’re doing just say so. Goodness.

    Yup, several different styles depending on the use. Can be used for bed rollers, return rollers, or even a singulator.

    I really don't know what his problem is. I spoke with him on the phone a few weeks ago and he was cocky with me. He said $1,500 to $3,000 ain't nothing to him. I said well it is to us, that will make or break us. I never once got an attitude with him. Guess he's gotten too big for his britches.

    Remains to be seen I bought the tires and wheels the rest came along
    I can kinda understand not spending the money on a Fork Lift if you really can get by without one.

    Yet having you hurt would by far more expensive if you were unable to work for a few weeks .

    I hear more and more drivers are being told not to help customers unload that if they get hurt company insurance will not cover the claim. I know different states can be different as well as companies.

    Then some would have no idea. I miss the days when you could just use the customers fork lift or crane unload as needed and be done.
