    Tis the season for blowouts, the highways are littered with gators this time of year.

    I had a front blowout about a year ago. You here all the horror stories about front blowout but this one was rather uneventful. I did feel it and the truck did pull to that side but it wasn't enough to try and take the wheel from my hands or anything. I just eased over on the shoulder and waited for a service call. Lost my right front fender on that one.

    Unfortunately, its a newer truck and less common as per say Cascadias or T680s. I don't know of many fleets run it. As it is body parts for trucks are hard to run into online. What you're looking for the the first piece of the side skirt/fairing.

    Here's something for you: https://www.heavytruckparts.net/

    If that doesn't work, which states do you run?
    Russ Fisher Truck Parts in Terre Haute, IN is a good spot for parts like these.
