    No just an electromagnet. The blue line that looks like pneumatic tubing is for Lube. I used a strap as backup incase it lost power for some reason. Did not want that dropping on me!! Not pulling much. I’ve got a boat and my Ambo trailer at the moment.

    Yes, I got the county pass previously. I believe that the county pass does not limit tire size. The state pass does. Not sure how strict they are with checking tire size. What chassis are you building on I’m interested.
