trailer does not look too bad. At least minimal damage to it. Have a close look at the trailer coupler and the hitch point on your truck. How bad was the truck damaged? I run my trailer brake controller pretty far up so the trailer does a lot more stopping than one would think. The trailer brakes ar...

Pics would help with damage report. Do yourself a favor and get yourself some of these. Put them on the axles at the coupler at all four locations (just be carefull not to capture the brake lines when wrapping the axles). http://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_28659_28659?cm_ven=Aggregates&a...

I am just not familiar enough with the product to know how it would work out. Where were you able to find the product? As far as the design on this or any thing else I have done with the pinz I would always like to hear or see what people think and what possible changes they would be interested in.

reading the care and working direction, I don't think it would hold up to the engine heat. I was also concerned about the oils that would stain the surface as it is after all the engine access cover. I am sure the product could be worked into the console just don't know how it would hold up to the h...

Brad just called and has the piece cut and is getting the first coat of primer on it. We should be able to get a second coat and get it out tomorrow. I am going to get it sent out as quick as possible, hopefully you can have for the weekend.

I sent them insured but it would probably easier to just send the cup holder part, if you don't mind.

I like mine, a 1964, but don't get to ride as much as when I got it. Fortunately for me we live in a fairly flat area. These Swiss bikes draw as much attention as the Pinz does. Up keep gets pricey with the specialty size tires and tubes. I did manage to collect the travel bag for mine which fits in...
