Mr. Argumentor
I fab shitboxes and shitbox accessories.
Agreed, but equipment with hydraulics tend to be used until they are literally nothing but rust, then used a little more, and then have parts salvaged from them to build a new(ish) vehicle.Shit gets built, people drive cars, there's gonna be scrapyards. You might have to drive 30-60 minutes out of town to get to one, but they're around.
You might even find the same size spooling valve on something like an old garbage truck, truck crane or something.
There has also been a push in the US to remove junk yards, or make them cleaner and safer so the yards have tighter margins. Makes it more rare to find a backhoe or something
