    Recovery planned, Dayton, Ohio to Spartanburg,SC this coming Friday

    No kidding. You couldn't drive a 10 penny nail up my butt with a 3 pound sledgehammer yesterday!

    Thanks for the pictures Butch. It was a trip I'll never forget even though at times, I thought it was a nightmare. I hope some of you noticed that this tow over the mountains and down the valleys was made using the dreaded IBIS TEK tow bar some hate. I had used it in the past with no problems...

    I want to thank everyone involved and all those rooting for us! I have never been soooo happy to see my exit sign off of I-26 in my life. I would love to type more but, honestly, I'm too drained both physically from driving and mentally from having to tow that truck across those mountains for...

    As for a side note. Coffey1 has been driving my new truck up to this point. I've been in the chase car behind him. I have yet to drive the truck. But now that he got the CTIS figured out, I may have to fight him to ever drive it!

    Good morning all. Our plan is to leave in a bit and hopefully get these 3 vehicles and 4 people home where we belong. It's been a nerve racking 3 days,at least for me, but with the good Lord's help, we will. Keep us in your thoughts and prayers.

    We've met up with my Andy, he has the goods and he is headed back. This has been a nerve wracking drive-continued prayers are very greatfully appreciated. ~Carrie-Ann PS. Butch is about to become my hood ornament. He keeps looking at me with stink eye, and I can't figure out which eye it is!

    Butch just called. He's about 12 miles out. The truck is loaded, running and ready to go. As soon as he gets here, we're North bound. Prayers for safe travels. ~The Wife

    Can a fellow A2 owner tell me how to get full line pressure from the emergency glad hand? Does CTIS operations take priorities over emergency air? Reason I ask is that I had cycled the CTIS from Hwy to Sand and back and it may not have been fully inflated yet. The gauges were both showing 120...

    We made an attempt to take an impact gun/Socket and remove the pulley. According to the TM's you are supposed to clamp the pulley in a vise to hold it while the nut is unscrewed. Unfortunately with it spinning on the shift, that can't work. There doesn't appear to be a good way to hold the shaft.

    Well Stage one is complete as Gimpy went this morning and picked up my Christmas present. After scarring the living S+%T out of me by telling me the rear axle locked up, he proceeded to say it went great and the truck is beautiful. Several members who saw the video mentioned a squeak as it was...
