    2005 Sprinter second and reverse only

    Should have added pads and rotors replaced by prev owner but we're rusty. Shaved rather than turned

    2005 Sprinter second and reverse only

    I mic'd them, and the worst was 20.7 the shop legitimately passed them. But they didn't check first. And 1 strand broken on e brake cable, that's picky. I allowed them to change the steering shaft u joint because it's there and I'm working, but they said heater blower too and I was using it all...

    2005 Sprinter second and reverse only

    Negotiated a 1000 dollar cheaper price. Between that and 150 so far and 150 to repeat this at another shop since I'm on the road I gave the go ahead

    2005 Sprinter second and reverse only

    So in for safety, mechanic said rotors were turned and they're not to be turned, so front and rear rotors, wiper blades, emergency brake cables are rotted, emergency brake out of adjustment, fan not working (heater fan) I explained it's not ontario law, just a mercedes tech bulletin . . . if...

    Rustoleum Rust Reformer in US (tremclad here) rustproofing is Rustcheck green (thick long lasting in spray can) and normal rustcheck by the gallon for interior panels...not sure if rust check is available in US it's clear and non staining, safe for electronics

    Sprinter aux tank

    As a side note, sprinter 2500's had different metal thickness and chassis bracing than 3500 so 8550 is likely 8550. Tank will be useful only on lighter loads it seems And yes, all of you were right

    What Are Your Sleep Management Tricks?

    Never get sleepy behind the wheel, that's why I do this. Except traffic. All my vans have had a hole cut in the door, or window removed, for a fantastic fan blowing right at my toes and a second one, portable 12v aimed at my face over 90 degrees. A bunk or comfortable area is a must in a van...

    Sprinter aux tank

    Back to the weight thing . . . i can title this sprinter for ontario at anything I want weight wise (with an actual mod to the suspension to make it a reality) I realize DOT would go by the door sticker but for locals . . . i doubt the frame on a 10000 plus box sprinter is anything different...

    Sprinter aux tank

    Told the carrier 2750. He's got a couple sprinters at 2000, some at 2500, and a couple at 3000. Obeying the law, this just doesn't seem fun anymore...first call was 2 skids at 3300 today. What's next, maturity? Responsibility? Paying taxes? Back on topic there's not as much depth back there as...

    Sprinter aux tank

    True enough. Can't predict anything on the open road. What I'm seeing for freight now could be due to my 6 ft 7 inches cargo area and natural gas only van. When I'm empty tho, loading up with 1.89 diesel on the way home:D
