How'd it go today?

Just be aware that parking in gear could still let the truck creep even if too slow to notice until hours later it's moved 10ft.

I've had this happen a few times, 12:1 first should take care of that, but yeah, parking brake and being in gear, I had to cancel a job last minute because I showed up and couldn't even park on the road infront of their house, it sucked (job was for a friend and they werent paying, so I wasn't going to try very hard to park, If I realllly wanted I coulda nosed into the telephone pole infront of their house to hold it or something)

Or just fix the parking brake like a responsible human being and don’t risk a runaway truck injuring someone else. Parts are cheap compared to lawsuits

when its your money, and your downtime, you get back to me, I am in the process of fixing it, but untill I can get parts, it can't get fixed, and I can't pull parts out of my ass so yeah

and I'd like to note, for the post you replied to, you couldn't park anything on that hill, wanna ask how I know? I've tried parking MULTIPLE vehicles on it, including a class 8 semi with air brakes and it still rolled, as I've mentioned in a previous post, we have to deal with upto 30% slopes frequently, had a 105% slope under the last 4 trees I did, obviously didn't drive on it, but we get into places here where no truck will stay put with the parking brake, more than once I've had to chain stuff to a tree to stop it from moving, and thats with properly adjusted parking brakes

without going into detail because its my business and mine only, I've been borderline suicidal from the stress of running a business, dealing with family issues, medical issues, bills, etc, I've been working close to 20 hours a day to keep my family from falling apart, the last thing I care about is the opinions of some strangers on the internet, sorry not sorry

I need a vacation, but I can't take a day off

I got a text form a guy I know and he asks me if I had any old saws. Old not running or old running was my reply. He says running. I have a couple of saw in the $450-550 range I could let go. Them he asks what’s a good cheap saw. Lol some people I just don’t know about them.

update on the transmission, it was too good to be true, input shaft was correct, clutch fork was correct, brand new rebuild with maybe 100 miles on it, and the bellhousing is the wrong size, SAE 1 instead of 2, and I'm not going through the trouble of adapting it, if it was an SAE 2 onto an SAE 1 engine I could, but not the other way, not without a lot of work

I do not know from which size to which, but M35A2s have an adapter ring.
