Nothing is inevitable to the Forces or Nature or Idiots.
I carry priceless documentation that is Federally mandated concerning the pipelines we build. If it was lost and those line had to be dug up to manually gather the data again, the cost would be millions.
I back up in triplicate.
I have a dedicated drive that I use Time Machine on, that backs up hour on the hour. I back up daily to to other hard drive too, just in case. At most, I can only loose an hours worth of data.

Truck is back together, minus the worrisome roar.
Two new hub bearings, rotors turned and new pads. It drives much better.
The weather today was a page right out of Alabama's normal screwed up forecast. We did see 50's up until about 11 then it was like spinning the "Wheel-O-Weather". I had rain, snow, sleet and hail, all in the span of about 3 hours. Temps feel like 30's with the wind.

I can get to all three bolts with the impact. After that it's just a minute of two with the 3 pound hammer. A little work with the wire brush, then a generous slathering of anti-seize and reverse the process.
And thanks!
And thanks!

I have an awful driveline growl that I thought were u-joints. I put all new joints in the rear shaft and had it balanced. The driveline shop said it was perfect. I also put a new front joint in the front shaft then road tested it and right at 60mph it is worse than before. So I pulled the forward shaft and reroad tested, still there. I think my wheel bearing may be shot. Got a price on Timkens for 210 out the door.

DTR's Locomotive Superhero and the DTR Sweet Tea Specialist
Evening everyone. Woke up to about 3 inches of snow this morning, it's all melted now. Haven't had snow this early in the fall/winter in a longtime. Worked in the garage today putting up some more shelves and I hung my DTR TOM award for April 09 since I recently recieved it in the mail, it looks good on the wall! Wife and I are going to see the band Black Label Society tonight, she got me tickets as a gift!.
