More baited breath.

So the shop wants to the shop owner Steve to look at my truck when he’s back in tomorrow to confirm that the wheel bearing is bad on my truck and there isn’t another issue with the rear axle. I’m thinking it could be the u-bolts again or spacers on the axle again. I do worry about the rot on the frame brace where the shock absorbers attach, I know that can be a problem on the Chevys. I haven’t noticed anything completely worn out, but I know from watching a Facebook video they can rot out under the bed where visibility is limited. Or something bigger but I don’t know, I ain’t a mechanic.

Another day of baited breath, feeding my anxiety. It’s fine, it’s not the end of world. Worst comes to worse, I junk the truck this summer and get a new one – but I really want through at least the end of the year – but I would rather keep the truck on road longer as I like Big Red and new trucks are real expensive and winters are salty and awful even if I’ve been planning for a replacement for a few years now and want something new for next summer’s road trip to Upper Michigan.
