    You know this time of year your cooling system could be one of the hardest work systems in your drive train.
    Make sure you check things out you know the drill, cap, level, hoses, belts, fan, ect ect.
    We all know how time flies trying to remember the last time I checked it.

    No I just thought that I would give some of the younger guys a heads up to help from having a more costly repair and sure if thay had questions the HAMB would jump right in and help.

    I think the merits of carrying a spare tire may need to be revisited also.

    Since most have big and littles should we carry a front spare or a rear spare? :confused:

    I keep hearing the meaty flup-flup-flup sound of post #3's mill wheel turning in post #10's ball rain in my head. Make it stop.

    A front spare would at least get you off the highway or at least may allow you to limp home.

    you should carry a spare that is the same size as the rear or the drive wheels if the size of the rears are different the rear end will spin at two different speeds this can cause issues. the front does not care what size the tires are it may pull or lean a bit but it is not going to explode

    Don't the tires turn at different speeds when turning?

    although he used a conductor when singing it, there were differences across the album and movie track that were directly proportionate.:D
