Found a sweet way to work under the rig. No hoist, no creepers required..
So who wants to be first??

LOL, actually a freind of mine did that allready. He actually used old mattress's. Did that a couple of times with his work truck in order to change the clutch. Just used his michigan wheel loader to tip it over onto the mattress. |

Dang, and I just changed my oil 2 days ago. Did it the hard way
Next time I'll bring it up and let you tip it up with the backhoe. That way we can drain it out of a valve cover instead
Hmmm, wife's Astro van needs a change. Wonder if she will be ok with this new time saving method  |

| Well if we're creative hooking up the chains, i'm sure we can flip it all the way upside down Dan. That way we wont even have to pull the plug. |
