Hey I need a bridge idea. Thinking of trying to find an old dock door plate??
We have several small springs run through the property. They are always running never dry up.
It's a pain to drive through them muddy mess.
I have a great spot side to side is about three feet.
Just looking for something to support a max of 1000 pounds riding mower or golf cart.

The bed off of a favorite long bed pickup Complete with trim. Cut the inner fenders out of the way. Leave the tailgate on so the wildlife has to walk through the mud once you put the tailgate up

If it’s a Holley, sure I wouldn’t even care about that. Holley rebuild kits are everywhere.

only carb I ever had trouble getting a rebuild kit for was an Older Edelbrock style.
