    10-4. So you drop the airbags, hook it up tight and raise them back up?

    I plan to when it gets put back together for the long term.

    My temp sensor was just back and forth all over the place on its readings. Once it was cleaned up and before I hooked up the sensor it was reading -40 which is where it's supposed to with an open circuit. Hooked it up and instantly read 95 degrees. So that could very well be part of your issue. Or if you can get what the code is check it's connections and any bends in the wiring for shorts.

    Got done. Drove with only an hour left. Just by the rest area after the Utah scale coming from I-80 Westbound. I'm tired. Making my trainer drive the last 60 miles because I'm tired and he pissed me off again. If we go to California, says he'll disable the air horn. Like disconnect and everything. I said you do that, I'll quit and go right back to flatbedding. Neither of us gives a flying freak either. Hope everyone has a good evening :)

    US 59 south is faster and less congested when you get into Texas. Watch the local bears. They will write you for 2 over.

    Welcome to Texas, wish I was home, all sorts of motor jobs that would put more money in your pockets on the way back home.

    If he does that. Pull into the scale house with your saddest, I am being taken advantage of puppy dog eyes and tell Mr or mrs scale house that due to this action your truck no longer meets federal safety requirmemts to be on the road.
    Then call the safety department at your company and inform them of your actions and why you thought it was necessary to do this.

    Or call the safety department and tell them of this threat. Make sure you have downloaded a recording device on your cell phone that you can record what the safety department said, and act on it accordingly.

    Had a conversation with Little Brother today. When the kid and I arrived at the pub, Little Brother was sitting on the patio in conversation with another guy about his age. The guy was volunteering employment history.

    RED MUTHA EFFIN FLAG!!!!

    They got into a discussion about guns and knives and shooting tips, which greatly interested Little Brother, who in his excitement, volunteered info about me. The kid volunteers the location of his home 20. Dummies. (sigh). A buddy of this new guy rolls up and he announced that he was going inside to shoot pool. He invited us to come inside and join. We declined. After 30 minutes, he comes back out and once again extends and invite. I decline, Little Brother accepts and goes inside.

    Today, I spoke to Little Brother on the phone and asked him what that guy wanted. He informs me that the guy is starting a new MC and is looking for an enforcer.

    BS.


    Anyways, the reason why I am writing this post is for you young guns. Whenever anyone volunteers info like employment history and you don’t know this guy, it should raise a red flag. $TFu!!! Do not mention ANYTHING personal. Keep your business YOUR business.

    Six back quiet.

    Do yourself a favor, and get some deoxit. It's made to clean and protect those type of connectors. Toothbrush will help clean in there.
