  1. I have been around light and heavy duty service trucks all my life.

    Trucks that get 60k to 120k put on yearly.

    One thing I can say. Is Goodyear couldn't build a truck tire to save your life.

    the wrangler series being the worse.

    My boss thought he was getting a great deal on tire for are fleet.

    Out of 7 trucks, not one set lasted 80k.

    I had a set on my z71. This truck had a very hard life.

    Blew out 2 side walls and lost a tread on the 401.

    this was there 6 ply tire.

    My GMC HD came with wrangler class e 10 ply. Didn.t get 2 years out of the set.

    I have used alot of brands in the 30 years i have driven pick ups.

    The best brands I've come across.

    TOYO

    HANCOCK

    MICHELIN.

    I will use BFG's if Thier priced right.

  2. Too my beloved Jo-Anne.I am sorry for you loss.

    In the time we have been together, We have lived life's trials and tribulations

    And we will proceed to move a head no matter what circumstances that life will test use at.

    The sadness you feel is a good thing. From this you will always remember.

     

     

    Love you, Paul.

  3. On my way to work this week. A new construction job site started at

    Rutherford rd, and humber river. So every morning they have closed

    one lane going east.

    Funny thing is this is not the problem.The traffic going west are the ones having crashes.

    So many that a couple of tow trucks sit there.

    The cause of the crashes, When the guys are trying to turn into the site.

    They are getting plowed into..

    This is a full Construction job. their is barriers and pillions and fencing.

    This site isn't going any where soon.

    If thees crashes where happening in the middle of the day, it would be understandable.

    For people that don't travel the area every day they wouldn't know the site was there.

    But this is 6:30 in the morning. The same people every morning.

    What is wrong with people. Are they born with out brains!!!!!.

  4. MY 93 gm I had to slam the door.

    My 03 gm, Push it closed with one finger and a coffee in hand.

    And theres not one air leak.

    Boss's 09 gm, Which he traded his Toy for.You don't have to slam the door.

    Friends O8 gm. which he traded his Toy for. Same thing.

     

    The reason you see so many used trucks for sale.

    Has nothing to do with the truck. It is the economical down turn.

    People can.t afford the gas and payment.

     

    Put it this way. How many times have you seen a truck with a hard tonnuo cover

    and no hitch. What do you think that truck is used for.

    Car with a very large trunk.

     

    Trucks are not forgiving if used as a truck. If you don't have a proper maintenance schedule.

  5. I need glasses for reading.

    I just got out of the shower.

    DO you think they could make the labeling of shampoo and conditioner smaller.

    I can't see it. So every time I have to guess.

    80% of the time I 'm wrong and try to wash with conditioner.

    I know they come in different colour bottles.

    But I have more important things to worry about.

    Like paying the mortgage.

  6. Does the engine smoke more when it starts to act up.

    If so this means you are sucking in air.

    I would tighten the fuel line connections.

     

    One of the things I always do when a fuel bulb is involved.

    is I strap the bulb to the boat in a vertical position with the

    arrow pointing up.

    Doing this will let the check valve work better.

     

    If your fuel line is not ethanol friendly. theirs a good chance you fuel line

    is rotten.

  7. do you have the proper load on the bearing.

    Did you bend the seal.

    Did you over grease.

    Are you sure the bearings are good.

    Did you use a double lip seal.

    Is there any contaminates.

    Is the seal boss worn.

    Did you use the proper grease.

    Is the seal the right one.

  8. If it was charging at 14.1 volts?

    I would have to say the regulator is shot.

    You shouldn't be charging more then 13.7.

    When your charging system is over charging. It will not take long

    to pooch the battery.

    A over charge will put to much amperage into the battery, causing it to

    over heat and warping the plates.

    Once this happens the battery can no long hold a suitable charge.
