    was going to let them cover kill cost and all processing. was thinking 4.50 a pound, just didn't want to get to high. a lot of people don't see the value, just initial cost. thanks for the info

    Alberta finished beef pricing

    Any one in Alberta selling grain finished beef. I have two heifers to sell that have been on grain for 120 days waiting on the butcher. Not sure what to sell them for on the rail. Was thinking $4 a pound. Two year old black angus

    3 Point Fifth Wheel

    your not the first one to do it, it works well. most guys add a receiver hitch so you can hook to bumper pulls too. and if you make your fifth wheel plate receiver right you can drop a gooseneck hitch in there and you can pull any style of trailer

    all the feed lots are in the south. they might do well. don't know till you try. up here they would not have anything but stubs for ears by spring.

    Patching up a stock trailer.

    a 5052 aluminum would shape nice for you with out surface cracking. Wouldn’t go thicker than 8 gauge. Between the surfaces, as long as you have some form of Barrier, plastic or paint you should be good to go.same guage if you want to go steel would shape nice

    Patching up a stock trailer.

    Adding aluminum to a steel trailer is going to cause you nothing but problems. (Galvanic corrosion) If you hit it with rust converter, it becomes a paintable surface. Throw some bead liner or rock guard on it.

    Need a cummins guru! Please.

    If you suspect the ecm take it off and get the dealer to check it out. Or if you can get a test ecm off another truck try that

    Oil leaking from Turbo

    Atimm693 has good advice. Also check the bolts they may just be loose. Oil pressure comes in the top and drains out the bottom. Your turbo is not failing

    Still haying.

    What did you put back in to get a cut like that? We’ve only got 2” of rain all summer. There’s not that much grass in the whole county
