I would consider changing the tongue design to be more like the design used in professionally built trailers (if my description doesn't make sense here, then you may want to simply go look at a few trailers, then you will understand what I am trying to say): Take that upside down "V" (either...

That is how it ought to be.

I would say you are on the right start with planning to rebuild that tongue. That arrangement doesn't look particularly strong. Those diagonals need to extend substantially farther back and tie into the frame in more than one place. When it comes to a rack for a RTT I would consider some...

I would plan to change fluids. Alluded to, but not detailed, would be brake fluid. Over time brake fluid collects water and gets dark. If it looks dark it would be a good idea to suction out the fluid in the master cylinder, fill with new fluid and then bleed the brakes until the new stuff...

Grace is the ticket.

I have to ask, why start with kosher salt if you need it finely ground?

I am clearly not among the elite. Salt, pepper and Chili powder are all I carry.

That is a thing of beauty.

That sounds reasonable. I shared this story with some friends who own repeaters. One of them is aware of a couple other repeater owners who have received the letter, so it is not just this one community. If I am understanding correctly the repeater owners who are getting these letters are...

I have one of those jump kits with the fancy battery that is supposed to have what it takes to start a diesel. It is the Micro-Start XP-10. Supposedly one of the big ones. I tried it on my Duramax. No dice. I will continue to carry my jumper cables.

Thank you for that. Looking into that, last year he had 41 or 42 rigs. I am guessing this year will be even more. I wish you all the best of trips, but that sounds like quite a bit of traffic to me.

Now you can understand the growing popularity of adult coloring books and safe spaces. Gotta have some kind of coping mechanism. :yum:

Yes. That is how it is. And yes, I know some of those guys swap their engines back and forth every two years. That is just one more cost to the price of their toys. Others simply are "green tag" vehicles, which means they never see pavement.

Kali has been known to do roadside emissions tests in an effort to catch those who play the game of remove/reinstall emissions equipment. I wouldn't want to play that game. And going between gas and diesel is bound to be a bunch of work. Not to mention needing to store quite a pile of...

+1 All I see is folks trying to find solutions to the problems that have been placed in their path.

Way cool. I wanted to go, but had family come to visit. I will be watching for opportunities in the spring.

Looks like you can only get a fraction of the way to an entry unless you are on Facebook.

So, so frustratingly true. What a mess.

Given how Kali and CARB works and the challenges that presents, it wouldn't surprise me if both sides are essentially telling the truth. It may well be that Cummins tried to submit a request, but their request doesn't fit the CARB template. Odds are good there are fields which don't fit this...

The fact that they are testing other engines may not be entirely relevant to this engine and its intended use, unless the other engines are also intended for swaps. I have had a bit of peripheral exposure to dealing with the CARB E.O. process when I used to work for Hooker Headers. We had a...
