Crazy stressful day started at Wayne's World. I hate to say it but he miss diagnosed the tie rod problem. Which I don't fault him for. The part was going to have to be ordered, so he suggested I take it this place that would also be able to do the alignment.
That place said it was the steering column and because the actual part was non-repairable I would have to order the whole steering column for $1500 plus installation and would take about a week. Well besides now being in a panic, that price didn't sit well. So I went back to Wayne's to see what could be done.
Strangely enough when I got there his son had just removed a steering column from a newer sprinter. I ended up not needing the whole thing. Wayne fixed it for $75
I asked him how he was able to repair a non-repairable part? He laughed and said, I just replaced the non-repairable part

I dislike that hillbilly toll road period! I remember when it was all 2 lane down thru there!
King of short runs.
Just went thru in the rainy middle of the night. Top of every hill, wind tries to grab in a new way and it feels like the back end wants to come out
So I think I have to discuss weekends off with the wife...turned down more miles than I drove this week, including over 2000 to AZ
If you were at pilot on route 64, few miles off of I-355, then I saw you today morning when I stopped by for coffe on the way to work!!
Now headed towards SC to pickup at 8 pm ... nice easy weekend load...
