    Fuel Management

    Ask any trucker they will tell you about diesel fuel. One year here in Washington State they had a surprise freeze in Eastern Washington and they had about a hundred truckers stalled on I-90 due the failure of the fuel distributors to add the additive to the fuel.

    Help with winch mount

    Hope to get the plate fabricated tomorrow and as soon as it is finished I will post pictures. This mount would work for any winch you could buy all you would have do do is drill holes to match the bolt holes of the winch.

    Help with winch mount

    It is one and one quarter inches but I would be reluctant to use it as a winch point since it is not rated for the 3,000lb pull. If you were to pul at a little angel it might tear something up.

    RTV bogging out...
