    Here's a funny issue though. Leveling valve broke. Zip tied it together and glued it. Went and got a new valve and rod. Rod bolt snapped in the axle leaf spring thing. Of course I left my drill at the house so dealer had to drill it out lol

    What's the cost to get all new drums and brakes put on? I'm thinking with labor around $1200?

    Wouldn’t have a clue. I have never paid anyone to do brakes.

    I know but he was going to be video taping throughout. The last video was the start of refurbishing his trailer, I was looking forward to that.

    But where you been man? I miss reading your post giving them fools Hell in the politics section, I haven't been keeping up much on it lately I can only take reading so much of Tucker BS.

    I spoke with Mercer a couple months ago about getting my 97 qualified to work this summer. They said they needed to see some detailed pics to make a decision , being the truck is up north tucked in the garage and I am in Florida I told them I would send them in the Spring.

    I'm guessing it will be quite a while before they take new O/Os on.

    Onto plan C I guess .
