I just wanted to post a public THANK-YOU, to Rubicrawler (Mark Langford).
Thanks man!!
To make a long story short, before Sunday I had never met Mark, and he had invited me over to check out some spring brackets. On my way, I wore through one of my POS braided brake lines, and lost my brakes:eek: :eek:
I made one phone call to Mark ( whom I had never met) and he jumped in his truck with a pair of vise grips, and some Brake Fluid. He then let me follow him back to his place where he let me park my ugly truck in front of his house for three days until I could get back out there with a trailer to bring it home!!
So once again,
Thanks man!! You are one hell of a good guy.

A couple of :beer: to Mark and the family. Mark and his family where kind enough to drag me through the Rubicon for the first time last year.
Here is a pic of Mark helping out Josh C with a broken spring pin

Mark is more or less supervising.

Brian whats with your truck and trailers I can't believe you didn't call me lol. I would have let you drive. AllI need is a few beers.

I didn't feel like driving down Marsh Creek with no LF brake, and I wanted to change over the front brake design, so there was no sense in replacing the one that tore so I could drive home.
Besides, why risk it, when I have friends like you guys to come my ass up:D :D .
And furthermore..........you know I always have plenty of :beer: :beer: to go around!!!!!!
