Towbar it home and be done with it. It's much easier to work on it once it's at your house. Unless you like more headaches.

Short answer: no Did you win anything yet?

Personally, I think buying an CUCV through GL is much more of a risk than buying a deuce. Which is kinda sad because they are easier to own, less cost, maintenance, etc. My M1009 I bought through GL although was inexpensive, wasn't as easy to bring home as my deuces were. I lucked out because...

Wish I could help :| My goal though is to own a wrecker by the end of the year :cool: You may have to go the 'ditch, ramps, and come-a-long' route to get the trailers in the bed.

I saw that one, very nice man! Oh and, nopics

Just got done mounting the pintle/ball combo I bought from Harbor Freight for $39.99. Notice the grade 8 hardware. :cool: Figured while I was taking pics for the tree winching post I'd take some of the M1009. :razz: My truck came from IL guard 33rd battalion military police, but what does...

I'll take some this evening of the destruction :twisted:
