Good thing you're not in the US, you would be declared a haz mat area by the EPA.

I sell structural steel for industrial, institutional and commercial building projects. Mostly low-rise stuff. I have seen a lot of bolts in my time on the job. I'm 41 now and started in the industry when I was 15. I have seen unthreaded bolts, Left handed threads on bolts labeled as Right hand threads (and vice versa). I have never seen bolts with both Left hand and Right hand threads on the same bolts. That is a special kind of stupid. You just can't fix that...

Well, now they look like really big solid rivets. Break out the ball-peen hammer.

Good afternoon Gerry
It is very quiet here at work. Raining outside, which is good, we need the water.
Wish it was time to go home........ another hour

How's life up in your part of the world ? Keeping out-a-trouble

Well I got off work today at 2:45 and headed straight home to mow. Got that done and hit the road for about an hour just to ride around and blow off some steam.

Unfortunately, I'm starting to get some shift flares like I had at about 1,500 miles. Gonna have to try to get her in early next week to get it checked.

I love this truck though!
