    Carrier Is Back

    After two years, never even my first "alarm" I wouldn't be looking to upgrade to improve performance. How do you improve on 100% perfect ? Maintenance free fans ? My brushes are at 75%. So, will I pull out 1/2 worn brushes every four years? :eek: Extended maint ? We pm every 6 months. I...

    FedEx Man Shooter...6 Dead

    Reading the story the headline should read "Man wearing FedEx Shirt....." Or "FedEx IC....." Very little chance that he's a FedEx employee. Which doesn't matter. FedEx employees do the same stupid stuff as other people. We put our snazzy pants on one leg at a time. It's a sad, tragic story...

    The TPMS is a must in our business. IMHO Also, I wouldn't run wide based singles without them in any business.

    My tire pressure monitoring system has heat alarms. That may have detected your problem. As you know, things were very hot back there.

    Two things, Temp gauge on rear would let you know that oil level was lower than usual. There should also be a vent to relieve pressure build up. Is it clogged ? It' often looks like a mushroom, about the size of your thumb. Grab the top and shake the top to knock dirt and grease out of airway...

    Make note to yourself,. Watch the repairs for future problems. It's not uncommon for seals to fail early. Like almost instantly, if wrong part used or damaged at install. Heartland had a unusual seal replaced at Sawyer. Trl didn't even make it to Detroit before driver was in same shape you...

    Joe, I know you don't feel lucky, buy you are. Back when I was a rookie we didn't have mobile axle repair men. It often meant removing and often replacing the entire axle housing.

    Thats the rear end oil that lubricates the wheel bearings. Check your rear end level at every pm and look near your U Joints to be sure the pinion seals are not leaking. Also sometimes the housing, often called a banjo, will crack or leak at a weld. A lift axle is pretty much the same as your...

    102" Tall Box Height on New Truck

    Would a 97 or 98 box help ? If they're building it custom they should be able to do that. ( for a price) A very off the wall idea would be to put a storage unit type rolling door, upside down, so it roll up under the floor. I can picture it in my head. You'd have to be creative with the ICC...
