And if you need help, there are several of us that can help you through the process. Your phone will make the video. Do something small (seconds not minutes) the first time.

I understand how that works!
Having confidence that you DO or DON'T need to spend the money is a worthwhile thing too. AutoZone, NAPA (in our area anyhow), Pep Boys, and Advance Auto Parts all do that testing for free. Can't hardly beat the price if you load them up and drive them there.

I have a M1088. It has 4 batteries in it. 2 @ 12v and 2 @ 24v. That flippin truck couldn't charge it's way out of a wet paper bag until I upgraded the alternator. I DON"T THINK you need to do that, but with the crummy batteries that I had AND the questionable alternator I had - I had...

What about hydraulics? The M107X and 108X trucks have a side mounted winch that is hydraulic powered. In this case, and electric switch turns on the pump and a second switch powers the cable in and cable out functions.
I have seen them in the Classifieds Section.

Just a slightly better wrench with two more contact points - specifically good for soft brass fittings.
Picture below.
I looked (maybe he already sold them) but I could have sworn that Castle Bravo had some sets for sale in the Classified Tools For Sale section. There are line wrenches...

Yes and No.
There is nothing here (on this site) that will allow you to host a "movin picture".
Need to create your movie, then post it on YouTube or some place similar.
Then create a link (Copy then Paste the link into a thread here) and all (some?) of us will come clamoring to see it!

I definitely like the idea!! I saw it in the parade or sitting by the motel (maybe). I started ogling it when @kendelrio posted his parade pictures. Best part was the idea of attaching it to the front Bow and using a piece of PVC pipe to roll it up when you are finished.
Heck of a Plan...

Grease for sure.
I would start with the drive shafts. Push and wiggle them too - searching for "play" in the joints and slip yoke before you hit them with a grease gun... Have you thought about (read about) getting the shafts on your new truck balanced? That is a big deal. Also, cheap and...

Yes Sir!
I generally will pull over and let the line pass me if there is a safe spot to do so. Otherwise, like you said @ToddJK - rolling down the road, I can ignore all the salutes with the finger they want to send my way. I am really tempted to get myself a bumper sticker that says I May...

I have the green truck disease pretty bad.
On the other hand (no pun intended) I really don't have it bad enough to get a RFID chip embedded in my hand.
Unless of course it maybe came as part of a relatively new tracked vehicle that got dropped off here in my driveway...

Bigger is definitely better... Looking at the picture, it looks like the trailer is different from the truck. I discovered "an app for that". Colors that is... Color Grab is an Android version that looks at a color and gives printers colors. It may have more features. Heck, there may even...

You definitely need some sort of pressure regulator when you connect to "city water" is pretty important. Like @chucky mentioned, a hundred PSI is a lot of water pressure to deal with.
Friend of mine with a basement in his house lost everything stored in that basement (and the neighbor...

Sad but true. Seems like all the things I should take pictures of cause greasy hands or as you said - two hands to do the task. Several before and after pictures, but rarely if ever any of the task at hand. :-(
.
Anything at all you could share on how to remove it? Or maybe a picture or two? Seems that every time that I do something like that - pictures of the process get overlooked...
