Manola,Ab, Ca | I got started back to hauling logs out the bush this week. On my first load to the mill after I got unloaded and was turning around I could hear something slapping the side of the bunk or cab. I did a walk around and couldn’t see anything obvious so I headed back for my next load. I happened to look in the passenger side mirror and noticed that the exhaust stack was moving in and out,it dawned on me that I had seen this before. I stopped and looked and sure enough the pin and bushings were missing from the top exhaust bracket.
I stood there scratching my head for a minute and then started looking in the truck to hold it in place. I then walked down into the ditch to the fence row and found a willow tree that I selected a branch about the right size. The branch was a perfect fit and I left a “y” attached so it wouldn’t fall through and then found a zip tie in my emergency kit. Five minutes later I was back on the road.
What creative bush fixes have you made?
