WHEN and again i said WHEN you have RUB RAILS then it is best to stay inside the rail , NOW WHEN you are pulling a low boy or a RGN they don't have RUB RAILS and NEVER enough Dee Rings SOOOOooooooo then you have to be creative in your load securement . Myself i started dragging a fifty ton low boy way back when i was a pup and you learned the fine art of chaining down loads . you set something on the deck that weighs fifty ton you sure don't want it to fall off . back in those days the smallest i hauled was in the D 4 class or a twelve ton roller on up to the big dozers and pans , shovels and cranes . After i closed up the shop i went back to the heavy haul and most loads that i normally hauled were under the fifty ton range . And just when you THINK you have this all down you get a load to run with for a NEW company and everything you thought you knew about load securement gets tossed out the window , Case in point here how many chains and binders do you need for one skid steer , (2)- (3)- (4)- (5) ( 6) . We are talking about a under 10000 lb machine , Band new from the factory i had five on the load , I carried 24 chains and binders i have 30 2x 30 ratchet straps . Let the fun begin .Also now keep in mind i had 5;/16ths and 3/8th grade 70 chains and ratchet binders , Straps were of the 10000 lb RATING .

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
