    Still better than me. I took my front differential to the machine shop to get 4 bearings pressed in and set the back lash and load on it. Guy called me back 1 month and 1 day later and told me to come get it. Get up there and he hits me with a $650 bill for labor. I provided ALL the parts. I about hit the floor.

    That's the reason I do all I can before going to a shop.

    Yeah, it was out, bearings and races knocked out, seals removed, cleaned in a vat, and ready to be put back together. I just didn't want the headache of setting backlash and preload. Done it before and it took me about 2 hrs to get it right. And that was the first time I had done it.

    Worked on the house today. Cut a hole in the back bedroom wall, removed 1 1/2" of tile around the bath tub and slid it out. I had talked to a few home improvement guys and heard it can't be done. Got to fix some drain issues before installing a new one. Had to take lots of breaks with cutting so much dust. Skinny neighbor was always willing to take a break from her sick kids.
    Kroger has 4 times points on cards this weekend, so go after 2 $200 Lowes gift cards tomorrow.

    Had to get the grinder and diamond blade back out. Concrete was piled up around the drain pipe adjustment nut. Can't get the piece out that goes in the tub. Go shopping for a new drain tail. Got to buy a kit for new installation, can't buy just the drain tail. New brass kits is $150 and up, PVC kit is $17 and up.
    Got the new tub out of the box and started through the hole. Got to cut new back wall support studs so I stopped for the day. Need to add some insulation along that wall too.
    I went to the auction last night, didn't buy much. The seller sold everything at retail or more. He had 8 small bags of cat litter, I sent a picture to Debbie for a price. That didn't help, he put them all on a table deal. I left then.

    Know what you mean. On Butla's facebook page I sent a message about not getting a reply from Clayton. It's a week old and no reply.
    Guess they want you to use your own anchors.
