Creepers

I decided enough is enough and tossed out my wooden POS creeper. It served me well, but after the second wheel broke off it didnt really creep anymore.

For my 21st birthday (after I got home from the strip clubs and sobered up) I bought myself one of these


It is really nice to be able to skate all over underneath my Runner. I can get under everything exept the front skid (my head is too big) without jacking or ramps. Those 5" wheels roll really nice. Now I can take little cat naps under the rig.


The girls from last night would give any dog a bone

I have been looking at those. I think there is also a rough surface version (my gravel driveway, since my garage is full of crap). They are over $100 IIRC, but look to be worth it.

Give us a tech report on it! Pictures, approach angles, climbing obstructions (drop light cords), snoozability, etc!!

Here is the family of Bones on amazon.com. Cheap, standard, and rough rider

I've seen these from many mail order places. I decided on Amazon.com because it came with free shipping. It only took 3 days to get here too. Shipped from Billings MT I believe. If you buy one make sure you have a T-27 (I Think) star alan wrench to put it together.

I got the standard model for 89.99. I work on a cement pad littered with gravel and its working great.
