    I will say this. I have had a great outcome with help from my Family on this. My dad went out bought a New Crib Swing and tons of cloths. We had friends buy us tons of stuff Wipes / Diapers and a pack and play. Heck even our land lord bought us wipes and diapers. I'm very thankful for all the help we got during this but This was our last child xD.

    Does anyone know where i can get my Diesel tank welded at? my lines from the APU are leaking where they screw into the tank at...

    Hey Pete, you probably already know this, but be very careful when you are welding the tanks-- a friend of ours had his tanks welded and the mechanic didn't disconnect the batteries and it fried the computer to the truck and caused over $20,000 in damage.

    They probably just need some thread sealant on them. It's doubtful the fitting on the tank just cracked while going down the road.

    It isn't just the tank. It's ANYWHERE on the truck. And always drop your trailer if welding on the trailer.

    That's the first rule when welding anything on these newer trucks. I have drivers completely unhook and disconnect from their trailers to make trailer repairs, for the same reason.

    All you need to disconnect is the negative side of the batteries.

    When I was there in January a driver had his wife sitting with him the whole time. You will be fine.
