12.7 Series 60- Issues after rebuild

The owner trusts his employees too much and is never there himself. They suck. He sucks.

 

I feel same way when someone gets shafted.

 

It actually has the cooling nozzle’s. They did use the red sealer. Man that stuff is awful. Got some on my tools once. It seemed to multiply and jump onto my shirt LOL

 

Correction. They used the red sealer in some places. I looked again and see what you are saying.

 

Maybe at some point. I have to make up a lot of money over this BS. It really put me in a tight spot.

I haven’t decided yet but it will be black or blue. Black would be good since it has the buckskin interior. If I paint it blue I may swap the interior and have blue made. Found a place in TX and I like a style they did for a Peterbilt.

 

Got the truck back this past Friday. I am very pleased with the outcome. No leaks whatsoever. Not even a drip. Sealed up everything correctly. Got my jakes hooked up. It wasn’t difficult he just knew what he was doing. Even fixed my fan running nonstop. I didn’t even ask he just saw it and called me. I was gonna trace this out myself but let them do it. Broken wire to ECM.

The vibration is better but not gone. They couldn’t find what is causing it. I think replacing the front motor mounts helped. This is a little annoying but maybe it is as good as it gets. Time will tell.

The bill was higher than I would have liked but they have higher shop rates. And obviously they did a lot of labor. I won’t complain because they did fix the issues and gave me evidence for court. Not too concerned as that is being wrapped into the lawsuit.

Overall I am mentally in a better state. Started some oilfield hauling this week. I will call it semi local. Always within 2 hours of the house but I don’t go home everyday. Waste of fuel in time IMO. I still have my dryvan if this gets slow, so I am well positioned to stay profitable.


Thanks again for everyone’s comments and concerns. I learned a lot just from this thread. I was hesitant to originally post it due to embarrassment and pride.
