Life lesson: If you’re being chased by a lion, you’re on a horse, to the left of you is a giraffe and on the right is a unicorn, what do you do? You stop drinking and get off the carousel.

Trailer is 24,000 gvw and ya it was probably a little much for the truck.but a few miles on back country roads it was just fine.it wasn't like I was doing 80mph on an interstate.

DMiller, the bell housing clutch drive shaft and floor board are all missing and the present owner has not seen them on his newly acquired property. It is my assumption that it was taken apart to do a clutch job and the parts were stolen for scrap since it was about 100 ft from the road. I felt that it was still worth my time for the UC and the ripper/aux hydraulics to keep mine going for another 40 years. It appears that the engine is smaller than the one in my current 6g that I stuck new clutches in early this spring.

Hello all, is there a website database that I could use to decipher the year of my machines? Thanks
