    *sigh*, once again another

    Kodiak, I dont think the RS will be coming to Moab, Ramairz may come up my way, we will load both VXs on my trailer, and split the gas out to Moab. Saves us both some bucks, and piece of mind if we break something on one of the rigs. And how sweet would it be to have two VXs on one trailer going cross country!!!!!!!
    I scheduled an appointment today for the goose neck hitch to get installed on the F250. Soon it becomes serious trailer shopping time. just gotta sell mine first...

    Marlin,

    I want to buy your trailer but gotta talk to Wifey first. We have a wedding to pay for in 2011 so finances will be tight.

    Sure, if you want to find out from an independent third party how nice it is, you can talk to beagler or ditchdoc or cavmedic or jwood on the planet. They have all seen it in person multiple times. A few saw it at Moab in 09 as well. I have upgraded it since then, but they saw it
    Let me know, I will hold off posting it on CL until you get back to me. If you do head this way, let me know, I can help you out with reservations up at shortstay (the awesome campground I told you about).
    As for the wedding in '11, thats easy, today some guy offered me 150 bucks in food stamps for 75 bucks in alcohol, I was in my dress whites, what I douche, I told him to "Take your lazy *** and get a job." I was so POed, the gall to ask a military guy in uniform no less. Good thing I wasn't carrying a firearm. You could gather food stamps to pay for the caterer!!!! Half price!!

    I did check out your postings on the Planet. It looks perfect for my needs. I'll let you know sumpn on Monday.

    The deal with buying the one from Welder Guy seems to have fallen through ... he hasn't mentioned it in months.

    Tom- Not sure if this is of any help, but....
    don't know if you're real familiar with how PayPal works, but you can "pay" Marlin via PayPal and have it go on your credit card of choice (that you have already set up on PP). Just ends up looking like any other "charged" purchase on your cc.

    Oh man was it a good day at the yards!!!!!!!!! I got the 4 16" wheels off the VX at the yards, no chrome peeling, all center caps good and one brand new cooper discovery HT (other 3 tires were garbage, I am sure his TOD loved that) for 130 bucks!!!!
    I also got the grill insert with fangs, the fangs are heading to the UK and the insert is replacing mine, I cracked it

    Then I went to the pic n pull and scored a set of Aisin hubs off of an old pup! 31 bucks. Took me a few hours to get em off, had to buy a 3/8 drive 8mm socket, they were on there tight. There is no play in the hubs, and the grease was clean.

    I also picked up some goodies I will post in another thread. I need to go back and get transfer case and tranny skid plates.

    Marlin, the 16's do not have the peeling problem of the 18's since they are not crome plated.

    That would be why they look so nice
