    I can feel your discomfort/disgust from here..

    As you know I farm out a large portion of my mechanical work. Don't be surprised if you end up redoing the work yourself when you get home.. :confused:

    Matter of fact, didn't you post earlier this year you had wheel seal or maybe bearing trouble on the road you were forced to farm out.? I think you were trying to help the guy as you sensed trouble brewing, & the saftey guy asked you to leave the work bay.? This doesn't happen to be the same wheel position.? o_O

    No it’s on the trailer. They actually look like they know what they were doing this time and I’m glad they got me in so quick but, it just kills me to know it’s a $60 job. I don’t anticipate having to redo this one though? 4729297A-93C8-4F59-B2E8-3B4F2955359B.jpeg I’m glad to pay the bill and am thankful they were open. Problem was it wasn’t really bad enough and I could of just drove home and fixed it myself before the day was over AND slept in my own bed tonight.
    But I’m booked on freight for the rest of the week and that would of screwed us up.


    So to sum it up, I’m just being a whiny #####!

    So told you guys a while back a childhood buddy has couple IH M that he has put B series cummins in. He pulls one and works a few.

    Caught him on the road to day. Zoom all the way on the first pic.

    LoL, it's good to blow off some whiny steam now & then! Can't just bottle it up forever.! :D

    Very happy too hear it's a different wheel position. I guess it slipped my mind it was on the truck last time.. It was just getting my goat thinking you might be experiencing the same thing I always do. IE fix'n the same thing twice, cause it sucks..

    Shop rates are getting out of hand, to say the least. Detroit of Tampa is $150 per hour!! Thinking you done the right move. The $500 you would've save doing it at home, would likely have cost much more over the lost revenue..

    Here's too a smooth rest of the week.! :occasion5:
