$215.00 for a Pully. Doesn't the Pully slide over the Alternator shaft and be secured by a nut & washer?.

Finally for sure on my way to pick up the Sprinter in Toledo tomorrow morning...Sprinter still isn't 100% but it is driveable so I will be attending orientation on Thursday at Load-1...:D Waiting on one more part from Germany that was just ordered today that will make the Benz 100% ;) Some sort of Thottle Control is messed up that has nothing to do with the wreak supposedly at least it's covered by warranty...:eek:

We took a load that picked up in Ohio last Friday going to Miami and we had to sit on the load until Monday afternoon. Now it is Wednesday and we are still here. :(

A weekend run...most of the time a good thing, depending on where it is going to leave you Babysitting a load, not such a good thing....

Sitting for 2 days in Fla...never a good thing....

Don't know how long you have been in the business, but basing it on the fact that you are new here, maybe not so long..(i could be wrong there)...but you will learn that not all long runs are a good deal.....

Florida...yuck....for me personally...I now avoid it like the plague...there is always units there and no way I am going to be 3rd or 4th out...whens a 1400 miles load not a good thing...when you have to DH 700 miles to get out....unless they give you something on the back end of the load to get out..
