I saw the other pics of that accident, you could see blood spattered over the back of the trailer (clearly from his head) better (you can see it here also, udner the horiz. barl for the rear cargo door latches) and one arm hanging lifeless out the door.

I just went to that site listed and it's full of ****. You might want to photoshop that out. By the way posting links to **** will pretty much send you to bancamp.

Not offended, just want to make sure he understands the rule before you screws up. Nevermind, he screws up about 4 times a day.

Had the engine had the power steering pump on it would you have retained it unused or would you have removed it? If you installed a new pump on that engine you could power the Hydro unit and have power brakes with very little modifications.

Didn't someone else sell these Hydroboost units and get banned....
