Back to hobbies ... and Life

Finally got a decent photo of our black pug. He's a beut! He has to think about things alot before dealing with them. He has to sniff and sniff and sniff on a spot and think about what it all means. While the boston terrier would just take a quick sniff and head out looking for things to eat or things to chase. The collar he wears has lots of spikes on it ... just to keep Sheba from chewing on it or using it to pull him around.

The Culprit

To the left is the splined shaft coming out of the top rear of the front differential ... on the right end is a threaded section ... there is supposed to be a nut on there to keep the "U"-joint on ... OOPS! It came off ... resulting in a strange vibration ... and as I came to a halt ... it slid off the driveshaft and thrashed about.

To the right is a foto of where an airline was torn off ... a taillight electrical line ripped off ... airbag base has a chunk knocked out ... and who knows what else ... Cost $475 to tow to the Freightliner shop ... waiting to see the final cost ... and when I'll get out of here (Gary, IN).
