Road trip from south FL to NC and maybe Ohio and back to FL

[gimpyrobb]

I was just kidding. The axle did mangle some un-important steel on the boom, but we made sure to watch out for the hydro hoses. If one is broken, it came that way from the seller. I must say it is in rough shape and you will have your work cut out for you, but once done, it should be a great addition. I do have some 5/8 hose if you need any, let me know.

We are just north of Atlanta, GA.

Kenny when we get to south Florida, can I park the trailer at your place?

 

[Recovry4x4]

Sure thing Phil. Park it just inside that east drive with room to get around it.

I thought the Jaguar was going to be loaded up and shipped south?

 

[swbradley1]

It was not at the compound at the time.



Kenny, I think the brake lines are bad on the axle.................

It was just twisted really bad... mangled is a over exaggeration...

I don't know anyone involved in this thread but I read all 7 pages and now I gotta reply so I get subscribed,

swbradley1, When looking at the pics of you loading the axle, I thought I might share a picture of a small mod we do to our loader buckets on the farm. We do it mainly for loading round bales but I can't help but think it would be really handy for you as well..

We just weld hooks on both top corners so there's 2 more places to hook a chain..

Anyways sorry for the interruption, hope the rest of the trip goes well Stonepicker1!

 

[swbradley1]

Thanks for the tip and it has been one of the mods I have wanted to do since I got it.

Yikes. Going to try to make it all the way or grab a nap?

 

[swbradley1]

I'm going to grab a nap and then go to bed, thanks for asking.

 

[Warthog]

I usually take a quick nap before bed. Thanks for asking.

 

[Recovry4x4]

You guys enjoy your nap together.

 

[Chiefprater]

Dropped trailer off at Kenny's place. Heading home.

 

[swbradley1]

I wish I could be there when Kenny sees it in person.


Take a selfie Kenny.
