Message: [QUOTE="B585Ford, post: 652225, member: 5497"] It will still be a few months (hopefully less but nothing moves fast with government) before I get into the 26k+ towing....I am going to try to keep everything legal for now on. Last summer I was always winging it and hoping not to get caught and I am tired of always watching for the DOT and praying they don't run me down when I pass the weigh station. Right now, my biggest hold up is waiting on DOT to approve my IRP account. Once that is done, I can get portioned tags and will be ready to roll. Right now I am working on replacing my GN hitch. It is 3/4" steel plate on the top and sides are all welded on...it is a DIY job. I think it is stronger than any of the ones you can buy, but now I will have DOT and MC #s so I have to go through more thorough inspections. Since it is not rated, I gotta remove it and replace it with something that is rated. Of course, I gotta pull the bed to get the old one out, then drop in a B&W. That's a really good idea with drain plug sensor. Have you found any that are a direct fit? When time permits, I am definitely gonna look at this closer (temps and different cooler) and of course, if I try anything I will keep everyone posted. [/QUOTE]
