    Started the day with nothing and then during my post trip I found this. The salt finally did the truck on one of the coolant lines by my turbo. Can't see the actual line because I cut it out but you get the picture. Ended the week with 2970 and had my pre assigned pulled so I lost about 250 bucks but still made a high pay check. Sucks but luckily I found this and didn't have to sit on the side of the road.

    The brake chamber is sideways, I'd put it out of service and take the day off

    :D :D :D Sorry... couldn't resist. Kudo's to RogerThat72 for catching the problem, and pointing out in this thread the importance of a thorough inspection.
