    I use the USPS, but FedEx and DHL are also there. As long and the box wieghs less than 70LBS and is smaller than I think 70 inches, I can send it home. I have already sent several different types of tow hooks and mounts.

    That is what I was wondering. I was going to send him an email if he did not respond today. I wanted to post everything publicly so other people can learn about the process.

    All the information EZfeed needs for the paper work. I think I will have to remove it from the cradle to get it. What unit is your son with?

    This is the other truck I have been working on. WHat do you do when you can only fit a wrench and cannot get enough leverage? you use a fork lift to break the nut losse. The final photograph is victory. One side done and lessons learned.
