Found a sweet way to work under the rig. No hoist, no creepers required..

So who wants to be first?? Very Happy

Dang, and I just changed my oil 2 days ago. Did it the hard way Sad

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 Wink

Hmmm, wife's Astro van needs a change. Wonder if she will be ok with this new time saving method Rolling Eyes

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.
