LMAO you know him don't you!!! Way tooooo funny...

 

well seems ,you didnt want to anser your phone today rob???????you must have been busy in here and fixing your truck lolhope your loads are going better than the mess you had the other day,rob detention pay should be $75 bucks an hour not 20,,,,,, $20 bucks an hour dont even cover your fuel,but the $75 bucks an hour makes them add up quick and moves there butts cause they dont want to pay that kind of money!!!! $75 x 15 is $1125,that would be a good day but getting them to pay it would be another story in its self,but yet they want to dock you if your late or dont make your appointment time hmmmmm sounds like a screwing to the driver just trying to pay his bills,,,,,they dont realize these trucks dont run on love and good faith

Dallas isn't bad for loads. THe rest of TX is. Dallas is about the only part that has good freight.

 

oh,seemevery ones giveing med man sympathy on the other forum,but i must say in one aspect i do feel for him ,with no a/c i sat in nc last weekend with a tore up a/c fan clutch last weekend ,but the temps wenrt as bad as texas,and you tryed to to come help,i want everyone to know that! you dont find people like yourself that are willing to go out of their way to help someone,and my hats off to you for that rob,everyone dont know you and i were on the phone trying to make somekind of plan!!!!!! ok im out of here,now that i got some sleep my little brain is recaping the week,so once again thanks for trying to help last weekend robDALLAS BOUND!!!

 

thanks med man for the infohope you got your a/c fixed???? $186 bucks in nc ,to fix my clutch ,but learned something,you dont need a puller ,you can use a 5/16 frame bolt to pull the pully off,to get to those little ####### bolts,and did you know you clutch wont cycle if you dont have a good ground and it will burn up the clutch,so make sure they put plenty of lock tight on the bolts,it only takes 30 minits to change the clutch if you carrie the tools with you like i do cause the clutck was only $79 bucks for my truck,i know for next time heheheh or to help a friend in need

 

I replaced the whole compressor.

I had a short on the plug at the high pressure switch and it was constantly tripping the clutch. that clutch got so hot I decided to replace the compressor. the seals undoubtably got an extreame amount of heat. The clutch had bee so hot it looked like an old rusty/ heat fatiged exhaust pipe. The whole compressor (which includes the clutch) is only $130 more then just the clutch.
