    The hood has been lifted. We are now on the clock fellers. Didnt even have to wait to get into the shop so the 'under 6 hours' proposition is looking good right about now

    Famous last words.

    Translation of hood up

    “ok bob, I lifted the hood. It makes the driver happy”

    The rules at CRE exist for your safety, and the safety of your fellow truckers. They are not flexible, nor am I.

    Obey them, or you are history.

    Opening the hood just means that they can start charging you because they "Started work" on your rig... Doesnt mean they are going to DO any work yet... Lol

    Hillbilly Deluxe; the throw out bearing is part of the pressure plate. Springs falling out might lead to a new clutch. They did make a two piece clutch brake that can be installed without pulling the trans.

    One thing that grinds my gears with most shops is they usually know what they need to do and how long. They’ll wait till right before close or shift change to let you know it will be the next day.

    Just freaking tell me early and let me go to the hotel. Screw sitting in the lounge all day
