Not really. But I see where with that turn and uphill push, a heavy trailer may do a bit of bumping and jostling on the pintel. But you still have the steel deuce bumper to support your wood, and if you can find a steel plate or at least 4 big washers for the backside of the wood, you should...
I think wood to be very adequate. Mine in the first pics is simply a 2X6 with a 2X4 on top. Behind is a 2X2 with bolts running through. Mine did not seem to flex when pushing or pulling.
For your Deuce, the 2X8 will have the added strength of the steel bumper to add rigidity. The wood...
March 9 I am supposed to be in Greenville, SC. Then on April 6 I should be in Denton, NC. for the NC Rally. Can you get them from Denton?
Where in Greenville are they?
I don’t want to over organize this convoy, but we need to be safe. I was with 3 other trucks coming back from Georgia one year without incident, but we started together, made one stop at a truck stop, then parted ways at our exit. However, we are up to 8-10 trucks and are making numerous...
Yes, the rear leg is for a 101

Attention Western North Carolina and Tennessee Folks:
AMGeneral and I were discussing my proposed meeting point along I-40, and I forgot that there is construction at Exit 105. They are completely redesigning the exit. By April it could be a mess. Also, Exit 105 will require 2 left turns...
I'm having a thought here Barbosa.
Exit 105 (obviously 1 mile sooner than 106) might be a better stop for you guys coming from TN. 106 only has fuel and a convenience store.
105 has at least 2 diesel stations with easy pull-through pumps. 105 also has a McDonalds. You guys from TN may...
Brandon,
Yes, if the 5 ton will pull it better. I assume that Mack will have more power than my multifuel. And that will allow me to pull my ammo trailer with firewood, etc.
By the way, I think with time changes by April, Sunrise will be around 7.
Daybreak, Friday, April 6, Exit 106 Exxon.
Brandon, Your mention of scales has me worried. If I put the M37 on the civvy trailer and pulled it over to Vulcan, would she weigh me with and without the trailer?
We will take I-40 east to Mocksville and pick up 64 to 109 which will take us straight into Denton. We could meet in Statesville where I-40 and I-77 meet if you take 421 to I-77. Or we could meet in Mocksville. If you come down (and up) I-26, you could catch I-40 in Asheville and meet us in...
Not sure, but I will probably bring the Deuce and trailer the M37.
Anybody wanting to convoy from Western NC? I can leave as early as Thursday after work - 3pm. Or early Friday morning.
I will probably come home Saturday night or EARLY Sunday to spend Easter with Family.
At least one tornado landed in eastern Burke County, NC, Wednesday night. Did a lot of damage; no deaths but about 22 homes destroyed and 76 damaged. A bunch of men are meeting Saturday morning at 8am at South Fork Baptist Church to get assignments and help fix/clean up whatever we can...
Got the M37 off the trailer today after work. First I aired up all the tires. Compare first to last. I did one oops while airing; I forgot to take the left front binder off and got the chain VERY tight before I realized what was happening.
While waiting for my son to get here from work, I...
Forgot to mention that the M38 is NOT for sale. It is in the owner's garage being restored. All original drivetrain, 24 volt. Little bit of rust through, but better than the M37's. Thought the heater between the seats was novel. Even looked like it had a cigarette ash tray.
My m37 has a few...
Pics as promised.
Loading was easy compared to unloading Matt's. Mine is still on the trailer. Matt's has no brakes or drive shafts so we had to load on level or slightly uphill ground. Tried pulling it up with my son's Ranger - no go. The owner's son had a big chevy truck which made easy work...
