• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    I agree I might use the parts to create a lift for such things. Removed from truck as I don't know that I will need it again until next year. I have an enclosed trailer for hauling just the Spyder on trips.

    Truck, Boat, and Spyder on the way to Florida I cruised at 74MPH most of the trip and bumped 80 once or twice. One time while following a big truck I felt a little buffeting but nothing serious.

    The parts I built. Here is a picture of the parts I built to make the loader. These were pinned to my gooseneck hitch plate, and the 4X4 rested on top of my aux. fuel cell inside the bed. To answer the concerns about the weight that high on my truck. No problems at all. With the spyder resting...

    Nervous Once loaded and tied down, I have no worries. The weight is not an issue for a 1 ton pickup, and the boat resting on the hitch will add to the stability. Now when it is being lifted in, there are moments of silence and a little prayer said that nothing goes wrong and drops my $28000 toy...

    Hi Thanks my friend, You are correct, I came up as a carpenter, foreman, and now a Senior Superintendent for a large General Contractor in the water and wastewater construction business. I have always loved to invent things to save myself time and money. It's amazing what a carpenter can do...

    I thought of that, but needing to haul the boat, and riding the Spyder at the same time would require a remote control for one or the other, and I would probably get a ticket trying to drive and use the remote control. It would be cool to build though. Hmmm, where is my scratch pad?? Thanks guys,

    Loading time I'm still testing it to some degree, but loaded and ready to roll 20 minutes complete if all goes well. It takes 5 minutes to set the ramps, and bring the loader to the tail gates. Drive up the ramps, set park brake, crawl off at the steep angle lol. Once on the loader, strap both...
