    Dang spacer plates have taken another big jump in price.....I always have just changed them.

    Parts came today and they sent me a head....didn't need a head but I do need a gasket set....didn't get that.

    Shop still has my head anyway so guess it's not real urgent.

    Good to know. I was gonna just toss mine and stick a new one on. I think I'm gonna give mine a really close inspection and see if its good to reuse.

    This is one plan, in a nutshell:
    The TREAD Act extends the transportation hours for livestock truck drivers by increasing the hours on the backend of hauls. Each trucker can finish the route, after driving 11 hours, if they are within 150 miles as a crow flies of their destination.

    This is another plan:
    Hilker is also the transportation committee chairman of the U.S. Cattlemen’s Association. He, like Sherow, is pleased with an increase in hours, but he said the industry needs more changes. He thinks the Transporting Livestock Across America Safely Act would solve several more problems. The bill would give the truckers a minimum of 15 hours and a maximum of 18. They would still be allotted the 10-hour sleep minimum.

    “We need to be able to split up the ten hours sleep,” Hilker said. “If he (the driver) needs a little catnap, he can take it. Right now, the law punishes him for taking it.”
