I finally got the drawing of the run-up blocks uploaded to the yahoo GM board, for those of you that were interested in what we did for ours.

If you click on this link:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/gmc-busnuts/files/Run-up%20blocks/

I think that you will be able to see ours. It's a large drawing, so you will have to move around to see all of it.

For what it's worth.

Here you go, folks.

If anyone needs any bus-related images hosted, I got domains and bandwidth coming outta my ears. Just email 'em to me.

(Editor's Note: Brian, I have to thank you for your most generous offer of bandwidth, but I've got an unlimited amount of it here, as well. No offense, but I'd like my viewers to know that, just as they have been able to do for the last 7 years, they can have their pictures posted directly in their message without having to follow a link to another web site. Again, thanks so much.)

Remember one run up block should be an oak 4X10 about a foot and a half long.

Use this little guy to create enough clearence inder a flat front tire to get a jack in.

AND paint the spot for jacking so you or the road service guy (who has only ridden in a bus) has it EZ at 0 Dark 30.

Hi, Fast Fred. I had forgotten the small block for changing tires. Thanks for the reminder.

The reason that I didn't send it to Ian's board is because I was having trouble getting the image down to 20 KB. IIRC, that was mentioned as a size limit here.

Ian, if you could make that image the right size for posting, I would appreciate it. I need to practice up on image work. I'll try getting a copy of it off to you this evening, if possible.
