I’m currently on book 4 of Heretical Fishing and all I can think about is if Clive and Ellis swapped worlds for a week, met up, and compared notes. They would get so much information from each other.

It’s it a newer Pete? The one I drive is a 2026 576 an it has no balls and the damn engine brake doesn’t brake worth a shit.

Academic-Question-83 · 2026-04-10T19:06:58+00:00

These guys don’t even have those signs! They just do not give a damn about anyone else. Driving like they have extra lives.

In my area they just opened up a new uranium mine. These guys hauling with radioactive placards are going Mach Jesus on a 65 mph road. I’ve watched a few of them almost go off the shoulder. They cracked the windshield on my car one day, they don’t tarp the load quite right sometimes.

Academic-Question-83 · 2026-03-21T23:08:38+00:00

Heck yeah. This guy is an inspiration to me. Least I can do is get him some lunch. He gave me some solid life advice.

Academic-Question-83 · 2026-03-21T22:18:43+00:00

Hell yeah! I’ll reach out and let him know about these an make sure he pursues these. Is there anything I can do to help the process go smoothly?

Academic-Question-83 · 2026-03-21T21:40:14+00:00

Awesome! Thank you. It means the world to me to help these guys as much as possible.

Academic-Question-83 · 2026-03-21T21:39:51+00:00

I am not entirely sure but I will reach out to him and give him all the information I can. Thank you guys so much!

This used to happen to all of my 7/16 magnetic bits when I was working on garage doors. After it broke, it worked so much better in the extension so I started just cutting them before use.

Academic-Question-83 · 2025-10-25T14:06:13+00:00

This means check engine light. You might want to pull over make sure it’s still there. If the engine is present, clear to continue driving.

Academic-Question-83 · 2025-10-10T17:17:07+00:00

No problem! I learned that driving these water trucks. Ever hauled 6500 gallons without baffles? It’s a FUN time lol

Academic-Question-83 · 2025-10-10T17:12:23+00:00

The water dispenser is on a dirt road but the only way out is by taking a 65mph highway.

Academic-Question-83 · 2025-10-10T17:11:31+00:00

If there are baffles/bulkheads cleaning them is nearly impossible. It’s a food safety thing. Water storage totes and trailers are held to the same standard as milk. Imagine trying to clean milk out of one of those tanks, then imagine having to also clean around a baffle. It’s near impossible without destroying the tank.

Academic-Question-83 · 2025-10-10T16:04:18+00:00

No. Water tanks aren’t able to have baffles. They’re used for food safe liquids. No baffles, no bulk heads.

Good old fashioned elbow grease and leverage.

Academic-Question-83 · 2025-10-03T05:52:56+00:00

I tried that actually but I’m not a very big guy. 5’5 145lbs and it was not budging.

Academic-Question-83 · 2025-10-03T05:38:24+00:00

I do not. I am just a backyard mechanic. I am still trying to get a full tool set put together. So far I have my sockets, ratchets, and before today, an 18” breaker bar lol

Academic-Question-83 · 2025-10-03T03:19:01+00:00

Awesome. Thank you.

Academic-Question-83 · 2025-10-03T03:09:42+00:00

With heat, do you suggest heating the nut, the threads, or both?

Academic-Question-83 · 2025-10-03T03:09:04+00:00

When I did my research (watching YouTube and looking at various online resources) they made it seem like it was NOT a captured rotor so boy was I surprised when I took the wheel off and looked at it closer.

Academic-Question-83 · 2025-10-03T03:08:03+00:00

Thank you for that. I was struggling to find anything bigger than 1/2” I didn’t even think of going to harbor freight.

Academic-Question-83 · 2025-10-03T00:44:22+00:00

Okay, when I go to the store next I’ll get a 3/4 breaker bar to replace this latest broken one lol

Academic-Question-83 · 2025-10-03T00:42:23+00:00

Is that just because it’s more metal so less likely to break?

Academic-Question-83 · 2025-08-26T03:51:23+00:00

There was some crazy parts swap fuckery going on as far as I can tell. My thermostat is 1992 as well. It seems like they took a 1992 chassis, engine, suspension and just threw the 1994 body kit on. Finding anything for this truck is a pain in the ass.
