Brian: I have 2” balls on receivers that will fit any standard 2” receiver. No need to worry about that. You will need to make sure the van has a 4-pin ...

Ok Don, I'll set you know. Is the electrical connector one of those flat ones with one prong on the end exposed and the other contacts recessed in the housing?...
As far as wether or not you should assume the risks of building, that's sort of a philosophical question that only a bit of soul searching can answer. To my...
That’s the one. I have a 4-pin flat to 6-pin round adapter, but (working form weak memory) I think it goes the wrong way (it changes my 6-pin livestock...
Don, Thanks for the trailer offer, Rich Martin has dropped off his trailer in front of my house, so it looks like we won't be needing yours, but thank you very...

Hi, Bryan...I'll start with a commercial. :-) Assuming you're in King County, go to your local branch and see if they've got my book, "Kitplane Construction"...

Very nice! I'm jealous - I probably would have tracked down a plane to rent had I not been fighting off a cold. It's been a while since I've flown out of BFI...
