    Maybe I've been lucky, but I haven't been lied to by any one there.

    @Kamkor, as far as the tires go, find an MD Alignment shop. They will be able to check all that and more.

    Gotta give credit to the Duncanville W&B. They got my APU running like new. A/C blows out cold air at a chilly 56.5 degrees.

    I need to let my maintenance account recover after two new super singles and repairs and road call. Its hurtin.

    Though, I think the tires may not be the problem with the vibration, I'm leaning more and more towards it being ride height. Especially with it being a problem that only occurs with a trailer attached. Any trailer. Bobtail its smooth. And now that I've had 3 out of 4 tires on the truck replaced there has been 0 difference in the vibration. There are other drivers, within JCT and without, that have the same symptoms and one of the solutions is increasing the length of the control bar for the ride height. I'm willing to give it a shot.

    I've been hearing reports the past few days of fuel shortages in the San Antonio area. Plan carefully drivers.
