It will raise (and lower) in about 1 minute (Maybe less) with almost zero physical effort on my part.....Just have to keep the impacted charged.
I also use this same impact tool to loosen (and tighten) my lug nuts so tire change is a breeze now.
As far as weight.....well IMO its much more important to have a spare tire.
Afterall What is an extra 75 # in the grand scheme of things?
If your concerned I would try and offset the spare tire weight by removing stuff you dont need or use OR move about 50 or 75# to the front (or middle) of the rig. Or dont fill your fuel tank to 100% every time you fuel up? |
Thanks Mr road. I appreciate the compliment. I will go have the rig weighed. And then I can have an better idea. See you all on the road. As a musician friend would say,. The highway is my home
