It's about time!!!! These cardboard ones have been getting soggy and ruined since the 80's!
I made one out of sheet metal a few years ago, and said I would never use a cardboard one again.
Great looking product, awsome price, and Mr Tri-Pro... if YOU were the one responsible for making this happen... then my hat is off to you!

krue · 08-06-2007, 05:40 PM

That's right.

Thanks. It was an idea that came to me when a box disintegrated taking it out (and I had worked setting up an injection molding factory back in '98 down in MnKinney, TX) seemed foolish not to make it out of plastic

wnc mountain · 08-09-2007, 01:57 PM

This is a great idea. I've seen a lot of things go through here and that has to be one of the best, most practicle ones. Love it!

70GMCer · 08-09-2007, 02:42 PM

A lot of vendors are going to have to have a sale on the cardboard ones, and SOON!!

Jon, I don't know if you have an a/c truck there but If need be for a test fit, perhaps we could meet some where to test the a/c one in the truck.
Just a thought if it helps.

Denny

jb4short · 08-09-2007, 03:29 PM

Denny- I've got an A/C truck and a non A/C truck here....but all the components are missing out of the A/C truck so I could use yours to make sure it clears the hardward back there

DennyB · 08-09-2007, 04:21 PM

Just let me how you want to work it and I'm sure we can figure it out.
