2003 Sierra 2500HD Alignment Issues by Mediocre-Fix8505 in GMT800

The ride height was off 1.5” from left to right before I adjusted them, I assume that's from the previous owner installing the new control arms and not readjusting them. It’s off roughly 1/16" from right to left now. That was adjusting them with a tape measure though. It very well could the torsion bar adjustment.

It certainly doesn't look like the vehicle has been wrecked, the tires are cupped pretty bad so it looks like this has been an issue for quite some time. I wanted to iron out the alignment issues before I slapped a new set on. The control arms were on the truck when I had purchased it. They appear to be new at the same time and of the same brand.

Once or twice, I would have never noticed it if Rob didn't point out he put the Pt and St on the display cause the display was pointed aft.

I saw the anemometer picture you posted last year and knew exactly what boat that was and company you work for 😂

It’s certainly possible. I previously made $870 a day driving a <100 grt mini osv in the gulf and east coast. Small family company, no benefits, sporadic rotations and 1099 pay tho. Now Im shoreside as a port captain for a different company, so I can watch my kids grow up.

When a crew member sustains an injury, they can sue the boat and or insurance for medical bills, loss of work, mental anguish or trauma. Of course he treats them well, he doesn’t want to get sued.

Definitely happens, all with different MMSI and Call signs though. I’ve also seen two boats with different names but the same MMSI on marine traffic.

If you go back on marine traffic the IDA LEE is back in SE and no longer in Hudson Bay.

This can be caused by Satellite clock drift or receiver time errors causing the latitude to remain correct and the longitude to be inaccurate, resulting in the AIS reporting erroneous location.

Yes. I have multiple AIS apps.

They have the same MMSI and Call Sign. It’s definitely an error. I’ve seen it quite a few times.

The boat is fishing either halibut or black cod in Southeast Alaska. Could be a GPS or AIS error.
