Ordered rcv stuff and never got it. Called them two weeks later and they said 4 month back order. Cancelled and bought it from ecgs off the shelf
 
Six hours and twelve minutes to go back through the tranny. Seats and panels aren't in so call it a day.
Pump plate was funky but everything else was good. I had the parts though.
You can see the spots it rubbed,got hot and warped.

Man this thing looks great!!!! Really hope you are correct on the weight too!!!! Light is right.

When is the shake down run? Bridgeport I assume?

Maybe,idk it's too hot.
We have things planned this fall like rugged mountain ranch and sand hollow but it's just sitting right now. Pretty annoying really
 
I here you its crazy hot during the day in Tx. RMR and Sand hollow will be some kick ass shake downs
 
Found a new problem. Tounge weight is too high for my tundra and it bottoms the axle on the stoppers. Gross weight is within limits but tounge on this double trailer is too high.
I sold all my big trucks last year so I'm stuck towing with the bus till I figure it out.
Sucks because I love this tundra,just too much for her.

Why not get a weight distribution hitch and put the light buggy on the front of the trailer?

Swap them around on the trailer. New buggy backed on, your buggy behind it facing the correct direction. That will solve that problem easily.
 
Truggie won't fit on the back of the trailer and that's a fuel center with 70 gallons in it
 
I'll weigh the tounge tomorrow and if it's within the tundra rating I will just put some helper springs on or something.
10,100 tow- 1100 hitch
The whole setup is 9600 so that part is fine
 
Went out last week. She immediately dropped it into a bus sized hole and scratched it up :rockon: few things need to be fixed but this little turd is so much fun.
Orbital valve is funky ,probably damaged the valves from low pressure before I bought it.
Some dillweed drilled a vent hole in the tank so the pump makes a little whine.
Shocks are obviously leaking a little and I felt them bottom a few times,so oil is probably low also.
That's about it,pretty short list really

I just put a normal orbital on it and mad a new column from a old orb mount and some tubing
