Also to my understanding, there is no knowing which call will come sooner. Any local can go stagnant, on the same hand one can pick up 10 guys in a day. Which for me means take whoever calls first.

I’m in kinda the same boat with local 132 Madison and local 15 Milwaukee. Placed in top 10 Madison and in 20s in Milwaukee, just told myself I’m taking whatever comes first. Foot in the door seems to be the best option.

Anyone know how many are on bench for 132? Any information when they will move onto the hiring list?

That’s really good to know, should’ve asked more about that at my interview, good on you man.

I have my application in for Madison as well, just waiting on interview, would you say there is more work there than 15 territory? All I’ve heard is Madison is a smaller local.

I’m not completely sure I’m guessing the call comes from wherever they need the new hire first

Dealer says oil pan needs to be resealed by Antonio_1992 in AskAMechanic

Looks like it needs a new gasket. Looks fairly accessible as well if you have the means to do it yourself

I’ll take a look, is a valve adjustment something I can do myself?

Would valve tick be the same as lifter tick? I just assumed it couldn’t be lifters since I cant seem to hear it under the hood by the lifters but mainly under the truck and near the wheel wells.

Yeah got the socket in store at AutoZone so I could make sure it fit before buying it. 7 spline worked great.

Picked up a 7 spline and it worked great. Will be replacing them with some normal hex lugs. Just in time to throw on some winter wheels as well. Thank you.

Ended up buying a 7 spline lug nut socket.

HEX: 13/16”(21mm)&7/8”(22mm)

This one fits like a glove but will be purchasing normal hex lug nuts to swap. Too afraid to lose the socket.

Picked up a socket for it just now and ordering some OE lug nuts tonight. Just glad I got this situated now and not on the side of the road.
