Dave those valves are wonderful. Had one on my wife explorer and one on my daily driver. Got rid of the explorer for me a new truck and the first thing I bought for it was the valve. Waiting for oil change time to put it on.

I had one on the F150 and I loved it they make oil changes easier and cleaner. Now all I need to do is get rid of the factory lift pump and put an Airdog on the truck and my fuel filter changes will be just as easy.

Boy, they sure look a lot alike. Should have known though, Dave would have been on an old restored rider.

I do too. I've notched and used bottle jacks to get them to fall just right with the larger trees. I cleared a bunch of jack pines once, - it didn't matter which way they fell, but you had to be careful. Because once half thru the cut, some would tend to break 1/3 of the way up. I almost got hooked and flung like a rag doll many times. Just the Jack Pines would do that.
