[Shop-talk] home-made fifth wheel conversion - humor

[Matt]

I received an email the other day with photo documentation of some fellow in
Utah that "modified" a Chevy Blazer to pull a big fifth wheel camper.  He laid
the tail gate down and screwed some rails across it then fit a gooseneck
adapter.  Realizing that the gate was a little flimsy, he "reinforced" it with
some cheap chain screwed to the pillar and connected by light weigh "S" hooks!
Still thinking maybe it needed a little something more, he whittled down a
4"x4" so it fit in the ball mount from his trailer hitch and supported the
tailgate from underneath...
All in all, pretty scary.
If I sent it to the list it would just strip the pix.  Anyone want to post it
on their web page?
