Does anyone in the Bozeman area have a utility trailer I could borrow for 24hrs around 9/2. I have CBI front & rear bumpers to pick up from the factory in Idaho Falls. I believe it would need to be at least 12' long to fit both pallets. Any leads would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

I don't have such a trailer, but I've rented similar trailers from Uhaul numerous times. If you strike out borrowing one, I think that what you need would likely only set you back $30-40 at Uhaul.

I have a bumper pull enclosed trailer that is 6’ wide and 16’ long. It pulls very well. Barn doors on the back, and man door on the side. I can help unload, if it would work for you. Leave a message at my house phone. 406-587-4992 Thanks! Matt

If anyone had one it’ll save me from having to order a bunch on Amazon.

If you find a local source let me know. I could use 2 of them for a project in progress and a couple extra just to have around. Radio Shack has lots of RC planes, cars and stuff now. Not sure about circuit board parts.

They have some variety packs of caps and diodes, but not a broad selection. I typically order online when I'm needing something specific. I don't think I have any of the diodes you need in my supplies.
 
@geo5 Are you performing the surgery to solve the single bulb out issue or is it some other problem?

I am replacing the diode in hopes that it will restore function to the light, mine doesn’t light up at all. Multimeter finding indicates I do have power up until the black diode, similar to this fix-thread

Thread 'VIDEO - 3RD BRAKE LIGHT FIX'

Thanks to the search function on this forum, I was able to find and follow the post about fixing the 3rd brake light in my '97 LX 450. I made a YouTube video of the fix (replacing the Zener Diode).
I thought I would post it on here since it might be helpful to someone who hasn't done it yet. The posts on here with the write up from "the 36th lock'' about how to test the diode etc. was super helpful.

Hey all, I know I’m new here but I wanted to ask if anyone had a garage or lift I could use to do some work on the cruiser? I’d be happy to pay or if anyone wanted to lend a hand that would be great too
 
Anyone have an engine stand I could borrow for a couple of months? Picking up a donor engine that needs some work to prep it for an engine swap this spring.
