Alex,
Where are you located? If you are near me I will go get that truck for you
with my gooseneck.
If I were going to build a towbar I would want the arms to be between four
and five foot.
I have DOT 5 brake fluid for $25.00 a gallon but shipping probably causes a
problem, one might even have to pay for hazardous material, I'm not sure,
again, if you're near me that won't be a problem.
I'm in Northwest Florida.
Sonny
