I usually learn by the hand slap method myself. It's like an electric fence... "Oh, so that's where the limit is".

Sometimes learning is painful! Seems like I always do things the hard way! I have to give it to the site tho, really nice people here. Nicely run. I like it.

So far no one has told me I post to much, to often, and start to many topics either. Its good to be able to take a walk and not worry about stepping on toes.
This is the first forum that I have ever been a pert of and leave it to me to just in without educating myself first..things like I didn't know posts never go away and threads don't either. That I am aware of that is..

Proof of what? I'm a late riser myself. Nights are for living, days for doing, those times between are for eating and sleeping.

Today I'm stuck waiting for help to lift the bumper et all back on my truck after I put the class 5 hitch on. It's a cucv and has a bunch of extra steel back there. Wasting time...
My last reply had a couple oops in it. It's the weekend,time to relaxe.

Cucv bumpers are much heavier, tow ring brackets and the pintel hitch brackets behind. Getting everything lined up can be a little tricky.

Big ass hammer time... It's a lot easier if you use 1/4 inch bolts when you put it back on...
Sure it rattles a bit, but the diesel sound covers it up.

I also like to use 1/4" soft bolts as hitch pins, sort of a safety shear pin when towing those 10k trailers:-D
Lol not sure that's a good idea to bolt the bumper with 1/4 bolts..the idea is for the bumper NOT!! To come off....use grade 8 proper size bolts. You want the hitch and bumper pretty much bullit proof.

Where's the fun in that? Tailgators gotta learn somehow.
