I have worked through it, and have used it for 14 years, and it doesn't owe me anything at this point, so I have tried to forget- but............
I bought a Ryder "road ready truck". The first thing I did was shorten the wheelbase. I found the rear axle housings had been welded. I used it that way for years, before I found used ones and had them replaced. I got that done just in time, as the forward housing had cracked enough one wheel ran crooked- when taken apart the differential needed rebuilding.
One of the "new" recaps on the back blew out, fortunately close to home. When my tire man looked at it, he commented on how he could never get away with capping a tire that old.

The head gasket blew, away from home, loaded. I got towed home. Took the head to the engine shop. The said they had never seen a head with that many cracks! Said it looked like a spider web.

My husband Ben came in the garage one rainy day to see if he could "help". Well if you knew Ben you wouldn't want him anywhere near your spray gun, fiberglass or bondo! So I pulled out the 2 old yucky looking magne
