Good morning everybody

Time to take a break from "life" and do something for myself.

 

Good afternoon everyone, power is back on..

 

Farmers might give up if it gets bad enough Gerry...when all hope is gone. It`s been a very hot summer and I`ve heard the there was little to no rain in parts of Southern Sk.
Hello Grant, Perry and John.
How long was your power out John?
Tomorrow is Thursday but it`ll be my fry day on the trail if there`s no clouds as it hits that 34 C.

 

6 hours for maintenance Morris

 

Gotcha Morris, never give up unless

I got rain here in Ont com'an getter

 

6 hours is quite a long time John, usually our`s is out for less than a couple of hrs.
I`d be so very glad to get some rain Gerry.

 

Good evening gents

Its going to be a balmy 33 out here tomorrow Morris

So, I decided to play musical tires with the truck so that my front tires match, still haven't changed the tire that needed changing. Had my tires out and decided to take a break when I noticed that there were 3 broken studs on the passenger side duallies. good thing that I have a parts truck as the stud hub was stripped and couldn't hold a stud. The PO had tack welded them to the drum and the tacks broke. Have the parts all stripped off and the parts truck is put back together but I need to buy an inner seal and bearing to put truck back together, then I can change the tire that was going to be changed originally.

So, Ontario Hydro is learning to maintain blackouts John

 

Good evening Perry.
It`s going to be around 33 C here too.
Sometimes you just have to wonder about what the PO was thinking.

 

The PO mounted 16" tires on 16.5 split rims, lots of geniuses out this way.

 

I didn`t think mounting 16'' tires on 16.5'' rims was possible.

 

I was sure of that to as thats an easy way to blow yer face off, but I showed them to the Italian guy at good tire and the just shook his head and laughed, cursed some cowboys also. Theres a guy out by Conrich that breaks down RVs and he has a bunch of 1 piece rims and tires and hopefully they're good, another $6 - 700 out for rear tires, but its safer than running on "boomers", its what the tire guy calls them. Its next to impossible to get 16.5s around here.

 

Happy Friday Mornin'all. Have a great day.

 

Morning dudes

 

Morning Truckers.
