    Had some very unpleasant conversation with someone on the phone this morning.... Actually it was a big and long exchange of arguments... :argue:
    Paid $300.00 cash for a consultation with her last Wednesday, to get a prescription of some compounded supplements and still have no prescription sent to the pharmacy.... She doesn't return calls, her inefficient assistant doesn't answer the phone, doesn't reply to messages... :angry4:
    I spent 2 hrs at her office's door yesterday hoping she would show up sometime... Left a couple of very unsatisfied msgs for her....
    Today she calls me, as arrogant and obnoxious as she can be, trying to talk over me and picking on my nerves... and that didn't go well.... :biggrin_25516:
    I haven't had such heated discussion with someone in many years...
    And I am very pssssed that she has not sent my prescription to the pharmacy yet... She knows I need that... but she seems to be the kind of b itch that may cancel my prescription on purpose.... :angry5:
    And if that happens I will have to visit another "holistic" doctor, spend more $$$$ to try to get the freakin compounded supplements that I need and have been searching and trying to get for almost one month now... :angry4:
    Because here in America, FDA makes availability to those compounded supplements very difficult, some are impossible and super expensive... and the so called "holistic" doctors charge an arm and a leg because only they can prescribe such supplements... :angry1:
    If this woman doesn't send my prescription to the pharmacy next week, I will file a complain with BBB, will post reviews on Google, Yelp and everywhere else I can...
    BTW, yesterday, as I was standing outside her door, one couple tried to go in without knowing it was closed... They were looking for a holistic practitioner....
    So, I told them about my awful experience with her and gave them the address to another one nearby... Felt pretty good about what I did... :D
    Ok... rant is over...

    I could be wrong but that looks like the universal fan motor that NAPA sells for my old 96 IHC 9200. It wouldn't hurt to look at one

    Both of you have tripped my mechanic ptsd with working on a fleet of them "Twin Screw Subaru's"


    But seriously good looking trucks. Those were solid work trucks. Till it was clutch job time. And I would take straw shoved under my toe and finger nails daily before I volunteered to do another.

    Book time 11-14 hours. My best was 9 with parts in house.

    I started out of high school at a Freightliner dealer on their first day. One of our bigger customers had bunches of early 90's Volvos, and all of us despised them.

    27 years later I decide it's time for a different path, and what do I choose?

    It really is one of the best driving trucks I've been in. Kinda a classic look nowadays.

    Parked on the beach now in Orick, CA. Looks like a good place to stop for the night.

    You could be correct.... Finally found a replacement after asking on a Jeep forum I’m on. Seems the new one only comes with a larger diameter motor, so you have to enlarge the hole where it sticks through the firewall......
