Parking brake in freezing weather mishap barley avoided

Chucky,

So, I had to add a "Haha" in reply to your message. Normally wouldn't have done that... Guess after figuring out that you didn't die and that your Pick Up Truck didn't get flattened - it appeared to be an okay day.

Have to laugh to keep from crying almost...

I keep thinking we need to develop and market the "Old Guy Step" for these trucks.
Maybe something we can hang on the driver's side tire to hustle up with a little less effort.

That might be good until somebody forgot the step was hanging on the tire.
Then the "Old Guy Step" gets flattened or the truck gets damaged

Just darn glad it worked out better than it could have for you and your trucks!

It was probly your video on youtube i watched a little while back Thanks

I finally went through my first cleanup / rebuild for the dryer. Several videos I watched were slimy and nasty inside. Mine was amazingly clean - like somebody had cleaned it. There was some sort of gritty little stuff on the exhaust or "spit valve" on the bottom. The seal kit was much easier to install that I expected ONLY because (for once!) nothing was rusted or stuck!!

Most difficult for me was removing the bolts that went through the frame supporting the dryer.

All the dryer videos I watched were done "on the truck". I spent the effort to get the bolts out and take it inside to work on it... Might not have been the smartest plan, but it allowed me to do the rebuild INSIDE in the warm and dry.
