Are you going to install a brake lock or do you count on the factory emergency brake to hold the truck still?

Great looking truck. Are the collins dollies the new G7 with the 104" useable span?

Very nicely done.

I have increased what I charge the customer per mile. I look at what fuel cost at the pump in my area and adjust accordingly, I have a fuel barrel at home so I very seldom fill up on the road. Also before the last election I was really concerned that fuel was going to clime in price so I contracted my fuel for 2021, 2022, and 2023. I know what my fuel cost is and it is a considerable savings over what is at the pump. And no I am not passing them savings onto the customer.

Very nice looking. Would you happen to know what the empty weight is?

Very well done.

I have used Collins dollies for over 20 years. They are extremely durable. With proper maintenance (grease) they last a long time. I am planning on buying another set soon. I like the improvements they have made on the new G7. The 104" extended cross rails was a dam good idea.

I am just curios why you did not grab the ford baby dump from the rear? Are they lighter in the front?

Stiff legs are a must have item. I built and installed them on my century 412 on a 2019 ford 450. Make sure you get limited slip of some sorts. Better to have and not need than to need and not have. As for a sling I dont have one. I use forks or will short chain to wheel lift. Mount dollys on top of deck. Collins make self loading dolly backets. They are not cheap but well worth the money. Also get a Mico brake lock. The oem emergency brake on truck in my opion are junk.

Since the election of a new president Diesel price at the pump where I am from has gone up 50 cents per gl. I dont see it coming down anytime soon. That is why after the election was over, I contracted my on road diesel for the next 3 years.

Still here.

Nice job. I have done the same thing with stumps. I always cut a notch to keep the chain from sliding up when it is coming over.

When I was younger and dumber I did some hauling similar to that. No weight on steer axle it dont turn so good. Way over on the drive axle. When going down hill it feels like you cant go slow enough. The overhang out the back is just nuts. If you are a religious type person you will talk to god the whole way praying something bad does not happen. Now that I am a little older and not as dumb you could not pay me enough to do that. Nothing good comes from abusing a truck like that.

I have a Mico duel brake lock on my 2019 F450 4x4. I have had bad experiences with factory emergency brakes they are junk,

HI. Would like to know what type or brand you are using? The good and the bad about them? With me previous employer it was never really an issue, most of the vehicles we towed where either older (made out of steel) or hit so hard in a accident it did not matter where put the lights (did not halfto worry about scratching anything) I now work for a different towing company and last night it became and issue. (all aluminium) I put the lights on the end of the boom extended up above the vehicle and away we went. Yes you could see them but I didnt like it. The lights should be on the towed vehicle.
