**OFFICIAL MJ'S EARNING THEIR KEEP THREAD**

I had actually thought of cleanning up the 92 and getting it back on the road. Just had a leaking clutch master and a cooked CPS wire. Until I lightly tapped the Rocker making a joke, and put my foot clean through.

 this 35' douglas fir was down in a creek bed but still held up above the water by some debris. probably weighed 3 times the truck (or more) but with a roll and a spin ... viola ,  4 loads to the good. :)

chev 3/4 ton suburban with every other leaf removed from the pack, so 5 leaves in total.  it rides pretty good but for flex i'd like to take one leaf out. I'm leaving it in for now though as i often find things in the bush that need to be brought home  :)

It's been two months but picked this Jimmy up, running, driving, and perfectly legal for $250. It's cost me a bit more than that again in parts, but I've already put 3000 miles on it.

I think that's about as much weight as I want to pull without trailer brakes. It's definitely heavier than the MJ is itself.

Ridiculously tall topper loaded top to bottom with my belongings, two cats, me, a kayak, and a 20ft aluminum bass boat. Hauled this mess from middle TN all the way to south FL. Truck struggled up Mt Eagle and ran hot at times, but otherwise ran flawlessly.

Running yard waste to the dump last year...

ps. Mind you this was BEFORE I put the tarp over it and strapped it down. Most fools around here don't cover their loads and the road leading to the landfill is a war zone of junk that escaped the truck bed...
