Hooiser pole

Date 08-30-2010 04:28

I am building my first hooiser pole and I have a question about the height. If I build it where I dont bump my head it is going to be a little tall. Machine is inset into the bed 3" and truck is 2wd Dodge and it sets a little low to start with. So what is standard height? And as far as width would you make it wide enough to open doors or use pins on doors and remove to access eng.

Build it to adjust for height and length.

All I can say is the day I met Shad, I thought they had a light pole out in there front yard, but it was Shad. Sorry man I couldnt let that one go by.
I hope the price of that barrel hadnt gone up lately.
