I like the tilted kilt. So does suzi. Wish we could make the trip over there with all of you.
 
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.

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 FIL has the same set up. I would keep my eyes peeled for the GN attachment, but I have no GN to haul so not a huge concern now. But I will definitely be putting a higher capacity hitch on in the future

We all know you only share a bed with Grace or Dan! :D
 
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

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

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)
We are mobile and hoses is a big part of our business so we have lots of hoses, fittings, an eaton press, chop saw, air compressor, generator etc in this thing. It used to be mobile command for the fire department and had the jaws of life in it and stuff. It's wired for house or generator power.

You can get hose machines pretty cheap at sales and auctions.
The fittings are spendy though.
The hose is like 1000-1500 a spool. (250ft)

I don't think the fittings are too bad though.
I can find one of our force invoices later to see, I don't pay for the stuff (yet). Lol
