Re: Laying out tire and jerry can swing carrier.

Re: Laying out tire and jerry can swing carrier.
Did some more welding, sandblasting and mocking up highlift jack mount today. Waiting for toggle clamp to arrive so I can finish up welding and get it primed.

Re: Laying out tire and jerry can swing carrier.
More pictures. Decided not to use cast hub to weld to. Found this giant nut to machine out. I will incorporate the existing tire carrier into new mount.

Re: would you tow a 712 in a dump trailer?
Dave,
That was my concern with the 14 ft dump trailer, getting to much tongue weight forward and not being able to back it up a bit.
What about back Pinz on?

Re: would you tow a 712 in a dump trailer?
I am looking at a 14 ft 10k gross weight dump trailer. The one I am looking at does not have very high walls 16 inches. Then again the 710 is shorter. Trying to decide on that or 16 foot car hauler. The dump trailer is twice as much and I am not sure I can justify the extra cost.

Re: Laying out tire and jerry can swing carrier.
For my next part in process I drilled pilot hole for 1.25 inch hole saw to cut in spindle sleeve.

Re: First Oil Change, need opinions
Oil level stayed the same for 150 or so miles I decided to change out the cheap oil I experimented with. I installed some good stuff with new filter from EI. Went 300 plus miles, lots of climbing in 90 degree plus weather ran great no oil burned or increase in oil level.
