made me some little landing pads for the raised trailer "legs" - The long/deployed legs have the wheels on them. Time to rust them up . . . a lot.

off to take the wife to PT, tomorrow is likely shot as I'm taking the car to get the bumper back-up sensor repaired...$110.00 - guess it could have been a lot worse. Ta Ta!

Bloody trailer legs - I used to hate winding them down!

Looking good Lyle!

THAT looks fantastic Lyle. Way to go everyone for helping Lyle achieve this.

Perhaps it's time for a SPAM decal for members eh?

I used to work at a truck and trailer painting shop. When trailers got dropped it was me winding the legs down. I know why they're geared like they are but geez they're a pain
