Our last dining Services contractor was pretty good. The food wasnt bad. We switched to a new company and the food sucks now. I wont eat the campus food during the year. And everythign on campus is closed by the time I come into work during the summer. So I bring my lunch or go off campus to get food.

I don't blame you Shaun, leftovers are sometimes better on the second serving.

When you described it tightening up and having a mind of its own, I was sure it was a steering box.

You were parked too close to that white dually last fall.

I guess I might have gotten a bad gearbox, but it is definitely tighter than mine was.. Mine had a clunk in it when you were parked and wiggled the wheel..

No I was far enough away...LOL

You might call them and see what your options are. From what I've read here, Red Head is pretty thorough when rebuilding them.
