    Now a day is the tire machines are all together different than what I’m used to I noticed these machines now they put the tire on it in a vertical position I wouldn’t know what to do with those

    But Dave I am not sure you measure up ha ha all fun my brother yes it’s kind of fun to change car tires by hand as I mentioned I have done it… I am also a master at changing car tires with a old fashion machine are used to be able to run one of those like changing my socks a few years back I’m sure I could still do it if I had the chance

    I think it was a slip of the tongue I meant to say front pump and front and rear servo rebuild Joey you’re like so cool not sure if I mentioned it I got cut today on account of heavy snow on Donner Pass they canceled my run that’s why I’ve been on here quite a bit I didn’t want to work anyway… bob

    I used to do a lot of car automatic transmissions and I always made sure I would rebuild the front and rear pump that’s not that much more I’m sure I’ll be doing more of them after retirement very good profit will rebuilding I am sure you know that yourself Joey $$$$$$$$

    And let’s face it the oil pump is the heart of the operation and you certainly don’t want it to completely fail while in operation

    Well from what he saying it’s just the idle pressure is the problem but I don’t know why his oil filters are not full But yes I agree A new oil pump is certainly not going to hurt it especially the two piece for bushing I don’t know what’s up with that According to the explosion version I don’t see a two piece bushing I can appreciate it but nobody likes to spend money especially if you don’t have it but for a work Ride it needs to be right… Bob

    This fellow doesn’t come on here very much anymore he’s probably tired of all of us bellyaching too much I don’t know why he’s selling his truck probably same reason The trailer would certainly come in handy for a side work I would like to have it myself….. bob
