For those of you that have ordered Brown Dog motor mounts, how long has it taken to receive your product?
I ordered 4/15, got an email for 'In Sequence for Production' on the 15th, and haven't heard a word since.
Buy it. The rails alone are worth more than $75. (you can re-use them when you get a heavier hitch)
Check to make sure the rails look like these.

Put the rails in the bed, they are the same across the board. You can upgrade the hitch later if needed. I have a gooseneck plate that goes in to the rails also. I can haul either trailer and still remove the hitch for full bed use.
My hotel mate for the week is a co-worker that works days...
He's been in bed every night before 10pm...
I haven't been to bed before 1am...

Interesting... must be just certain places do it. Pretty sure midland Napa does but doesn't advertise it. The napa guy tried selling us an extra press/collet/pump/etc kit he had for 1200 bucks (good deal) but Jed wasn't interested in having another.
Either way, I don't have to worry about where to get them made, just walk over to the "donut van" lol

Really if you are only doing your own stuff once in a while all you need is your common fittings and hose, the collets, and a hydraulic press(could even be hand pump type)I'm jealous. That is one thing hat we dont have and probably should own. We have dozens of places around that make hydro hoses, but they are all 30 minutes away or more and that is just more down time. Seems that with running 2 skid steers with multiple attachments, we replace a lot of hoses. Grapple buckets eat hoses on a regular basis.
Cheese "hosed" Man
The hose is like 1000-1500 a spool. (250ft)You can get hose machines pretty cheap at sales and auctions.
The fittings are spendy though.
