About 36,000 views until we have our first one million + view thread

Wow

So much wasted time

So, say the average person spends 2-3 minutes here every time they stop by. And the average person is making what?? $18 an hour? (No clue, just tossing out a number) Let's just say 2.5 minutes per visit

So 2.5 minutes X 963,500 visits = 2,408.750 minutes

or

40,145 hours X $18 = $722,625

Or about the cost of an older smallish apartment in California!

Wow this thread is one huge waste of money!

Don did all the mathin' here.
Looking at it from a grunt level, call it a dollar a view.

But it is quite entertaining some days.

Why the exclusion? I like to be part of trends too. I would have responded earlier, but I had to recover from eating my Tide Pods last night. That’s still a thing, right?

My youngest will be able to say his dad was 48 when he was born.

My oldest is 22 jr, not sure why I’m being excluded either.

My kids think the wife is 28 and has been for years, me on the other hand she just spouts off any random number over thirty five and they never second guess it. The little anyway

I have 2 granddaughters I can't see because the mothers are crazy. Best I can do is Facebook stalk.

Anyway, today we pulled the rear diff out of the Freightliner today. Trying to chase down a vibration. I have a video of it running up on jack stands. It sounds angry. I consulted a couple mechanics and they said likely a bad bearing. I hope they are right.

Bad batch of storms rolled through. Tornado on the ground and all that fun stuff. We are currently on generator power.

Do you exchange the drop outs or repair on your own?

Farmer Jon · « **Reply #16128 on:** December 16, 2021, 09:37:31 PM »

I dropped the differential off at inland truck parts. They tore it down and all the bearings are out of spec. Recommend a bearing kit. However there is not one set of bearings available in the entire country. Except one on ebay for $1200. Regular price $900. The 2 bearings in the neck near the yoke are the worst. Apparently those 2 are not included in the kit and are available because he said worse case they can replace those 2 and just have to run it with the others. They must not be that bad.

Charles, you must have forgot that libunatics are weak minded folk, and are unwilling to accept the constitution. How dare you be so mean to them….

As Tate said, that’s a win!

Are you seriously saying that you won't allow strangers to take your things?

Oh!!!! Watches! I kept reading it “watchers” and wasn’t sure I wanted to know what TRN was up to in his off forum time. This makes much more sense….except the forum for watches part. ;)

Put some winter tires on the truck today

The BFG all terrain tire is what was on the wheels when purchased for $600 bucks, the tires are maybe 500 miles of use.
The size is a little narrow for my taste but they didn’t cost me much
