    Wow. I guess nobody taught him how to set the brakes.

    True story:
    Couple years ago a guy brings a truck to our shop for some transmission work. Mechanic gets it on the lift, climbs under, and...... well there was a hole in the floor..... and evidence all underneath......

    Lift comes down and the phone call is made: "Come get this thing out of our shop and don't ever bring it back!"

    A local shop here rebuilt one of my carriers a couple years ago and when I was there they told a similar story. 3 of them came in in one truck, when the mechanic crawled under there was a hole in the floor with "evidence" and they refused to work on it.

    Now that's what I'm talkin' bout.

    There's no csa points for ELD fines until April...screw an eld.

    If my truck wasn't exempt I wouldn't run one anyways.

    Its a balmy -22 degrees here in western Wisconsin. NOT including the wind chill. Takes about 3 times longer to feed cattle. Stay warm

    I can attest to this stuff. Used it on the front of the frame when I put the new motor in. Didn't like it at first but it's on there good and very tough!!!!

    I'm going to do the rear this spring again and I will give this a shot for the back this time.

    Don't mind me, just being a slut.

    Amazing how beautiful weather and a clean truck can make a guy feel like a million bucks.
