What should I do?

I have a truck tilt in my truck and a van tilt in reserve. I'm in a situation where I need to sell some stuff to finance fixing my truck. Should I pull the truck tilt out and install the van tilt so I can sell the truck tilt or should I just sell the van tilt? It's about a $75 difference in what the columns will bring.

I do not think it is worth all of the work to swap them out. Sell the van tilt.

Re: What should I do?

Hey Krue, save the time and effort. If the van tilt is in nice shape you'll make out okay and not have to do anything but box & ship it. That's my vote.......Bamm!

Re: What should I do?

For what it's worth I agree just sell the van tilt.....but really it comes down to how bad you need the extra 75 bones?

Re: What should I do?
