    My sister has my Tundra while I'm in Boston. She drove it to work yesterday. She was BSing with someone with that description Tacoma and he said he was on TW also. Just curious more than anything.

    Bent axles, housing, and blown diff. :eek:

    Well if you wanna get technical about it...yeah I guess you're right.
    I like to look it as I intentionally exhausted the limits of my truck in order to identify and upgrade the weak link. :anonymous:

    quick question. Those atvs in the front of the trailer standing straight up and down. Do you let them sit before you turn them on?

    They are strait up. Suzuki recommends two transportation modes, flat on all fours, or vertical as pictured. So long as the fuel knob is in the primary or reserve position (not prime position) the fuel is cutoff unless the bike is running. I literally kick them forward to drop on all fours, turn key, start them and shoot off the end of the trailer.

    Looking for some advice/help guys. I recently picked up a Warn M8000 and have decided to mount the control box under the hood in the open area on the passenger side up towards the cab. The #2 SAE copper lines are not long enough to reach the winch or the battery due to the new mounting spot so I'm looking to get them lengthened. I've spliced and wired up lights and stuff before but with something as heavy duty as #2 and something as important as wiring for a winch I'm not comfortable with doing the job myself. Does anyone know where I could take it to get it lengthened? Thanks in advance for the help guys.

    Matt how about screw terminals? How big are #2s? Are we talking battery cable size, heavy duty extension cord or what? I can solder them if not too big.

    Might look into getting welding cable with terminals crimped on. Thick gauge with low resistance, sold in bulk and cut to length.
    I use specialty welding supply in sparks

    Yep that's what I'd do. I'd get some quality heat shrink and some welding cable and some copper lugs and find someone who can hydraulically crimp them.
